Unique Wooden Sphere Furniture And Art In One

Posted: 30 Nov 2015 01:23 PM PST

This stunning Wooden Sphere furniture series by sculptor Lee Jae-Hyo is definitely as much art as it is functional objects. The series is created by forming a solid composition of found wood into spherical shapes. Once the composition is complete Lee burns the mass of wood until it is completely blackened and charred. The third step is to polish the outside edges to reveal the pale, natural wood within while leaving the areas around each polished section black with char. No two pieces are alike as each piece of found wood has its own distinctive graining and shape, meaning the blackened voids are always unique as is the story within the exposed natural wood grains.

Cascading Mexican House Embedded In A Hilltop Setting

Posted: 30 Nov 2015 06:23 AM PST

Presiding over the surrounding hillside, Toucan House, a new 400 sq m single family home by Mexico City based Taller Hector Barrosa, elegantly cascades down the steeply sloping site in a series of four terraced volumes. The rectilinear plot with an incline of 14m presented a challenge, resulting in the strategic arrangement of the first volume, a garage and store, to form a private frontage at the lower street level, with the three remaining volumes nestled into the undulating terrain behind it, maximizing panoramic views of Valle. The pavilions are 'interrupted' by landscaped gardens, terraces, balconies and patios, dissolving the boundaries between architecture and landscape. The inner design is modern with lots of local wood incorporated to make it merge with outdoors.

Winter Wall Murals Bring the Magic of the Season Indoors

Posted: 30 Nov 2015 02:00 AM PST

design wall murals

Winter is coming, and with it cozy evenings spent by the fireplace and restless days of preparation for Christmas. Meanwhile, muted shades of gray, white and blue dominate the landscape.

PIXERS decided to pay homage to snow and frost in its collection of winter wall murals. This lovely series features mountain vistas and close-ups of winter’s natural phenomena.

“We created hyper-realistic wall murals using photos of stunning winter landscapes that resemble the way nature looks during winter. Vibrant colors give way to muted hues of mountains covered in snow, frozen twigs and light gray skies,” the designers at PIXERS said.

The murals can transform a regular room into a peaceful winter refuge — especially in areas that get no (or little) snowfall. PIXERS also are great for those who desire the look only temporarily, thanks to a special backing that allows them to be repositioned.

Terrace Is Ingeniously Lowered to Let Light Into London Home

This light, bright London home was envisioned by Scenario Architecture. The Gransden Avenue project was designed to allow a family of three to interact within a flexible, engaging environment. But it didn’t quite start out that way.

“The site was challenging, as it is part of a terrace that opens out to a hard landscaped internal community space” and parking lot, the architects said. “The key elements of our brief were to utilize daylight as much as possible while maintaining a warm living space, and to have a green area that can be seen from the living room.”

This 2,766-square-foot London home combines the stark elegance of a gallery-like interior with the warmth that only a family home can exude. Plenty of design elements make this home stand out; which are your favorites? [Photography by Matt Clayton]

Wood Warms Modern Mexico Apartment in Unexpectedly Creative Ways

Posted: 29 Nov 2015 08:00 AM PST

architecture modern apartmentCompleted by Kababie Architects in Mexico City, Apartment KG is a contemporary home defined by an original design scheme. Its uniqueness comes from an unexpectedly vibrant mix of textures and furnishings in a neutral palette of white, gray, brown and black — and that spectacular ceiling.

“The kitchen and the family room are unified through the harmonious ceiling design, a prefabricated lattice made of reclaimed wood,” the project developers said. Lighting units are creatively hidden within the sculptural addition, making it both aesthetic and functional.

The reclaimed wood lattice continues from the ceiling down opposite walls, forming a bar area on one side and a media wall on the other.

Almost every element in this apartment draws attention; a fireplace in gray marble visually contrasts the neighboring dining room for 12. Hexagonal tables of different heights act as the core of the lounge area, contributing to the 3D effect this apartment exudes.

“The dining room is subtly separated from the kitchen through a breakfast/eating area,” the developers said. “All the bedrooms are grouped in a specific wing of the apartment. The master bedroom is complemented by a TV room.” What do you find most inspiring about this modern Mexico apartment? [Photography by Jaime Navarro]
