Project 2 Precedents | o estúdio [archiphilia] Project 2 Precedents Here are some images i thought I might scan in and post. EXTREME NATURE: Landscape of ambiguous spaces, Japanese Pavillion @ the Venice Biennale. With my old narrative, the small interior zen garden corresponded with the “playful scene unfolding below”. House N, Sou Fujimoto Architects I thought about this project in terms of “OCCUPYING THE THRESHOLD” (one of the principal concepts behind my scheme). Sway house, Atelier Bow Wow I thought this project was an interesting reference because of the way it manages to stay respectful to it’s context whilst still being distinct. Balloon, junya.ishigami+associates Chucked this is maily because it’s so cool. Kanagawa Institute of Technology KAIT workshop, junya.ishigami+associates I was thinking about this project about how it completely controls the movement within the space through the scattered columns.

Moshe Safdie: Singapore | EMPTY KINGDOM You are Here, We are Everywhere Fifteen Visually Stunning Architectural Delights Fifteen Visually Stunning Architectural Delights Those who stay in apartments crave for spacious bungalows and those who live in landscaped acres dread the maintenance! So what really is the ideal size for a home? The multi-storey high-rises offer many titillating features and let’s not even get into their crazy architectural style. NOAH proposes to be a habitat for 40,000 residents who can benefit from the planned residential units, school system, commercial, retail, hotels, casinos, parking, and public works facilities. 14) Eko by 10 Raisons Architects Critics may pan it for getting inspired by the romantic Eiffel Tower, but the giant Eko looks like a tower with webs on the side. 13) Campus Center for Miami Dade College by Oppenheim Architects If Polo is the mint with a hole, then the Miami Dade College is a Super Building Campus Center for Miami Dade College is the architectural version of it. 12) Guggenheim Hermitage Museum by Zaha Hadid 11) Klein Bottle House by McBride Charles Ryan

Bedroom I've been busy designing a project that installs at the end of the month (a model home) and am working on bedding at this very moment. Finding myself hitting a "creativity" roadblock, I decided jump online to hopefully spark some fresh ideas. After analyzing bedroom after bedroom, I've come to the conclusion that pretty much anything goes when it comes to bedding...as long as the fabrics somehow coordinate, you can pull almost anything off! Headboards definitely add something special to the overall look of a bed, but if that isn't an option, wallpaper or accent paint are just as great to really make everything pop. Pattern play - a great mix against a crisp white headboard Lots of pillows and layered textures An eclectic mix of pattern and color Bold graphic prints accented with crisp white and pops of coral Simple and elegant with an eclectic mix of floral and geometric prints / love the headboard! The printed headboard allows for simple bedding Great colors, right?!
