Richard Meier 2013 Architizer A+ Lifetime Achievement Award
Richard Meier seems to have cropped up a lot lately on the web, if you've been checking our twitter or facebook page you may have seen me linking to articles discussing his work and achievements. Lets face it, Richard is a master when it comes to architecture, he's spent over 50 years dedicating his
Architecture and Interiors by Hiroyuki Shinozaki
Architecture hasn’t been a feature on the site as of late, so I’m making a conscious effort to slot some in to the mix. In fact, I’ve had a few draft posts saved of locations around the web that have inspired me but I hadn’t been able to string something together as such, so today we’re g
Frameworks by Studio Mieke Meijer
Secretly I've been saving up for a gift, a treat for myself that I've been umming and arring over for some time. To be honest, I don't know why I've been debating as it's a worthy investment, and it was designed by one of my favourite designers, so that's a definite seller for me! The "thing" is the
Interior Spaces by Kouichi Kimura Architects
I’m often stumped when it comes to architectural websites, usually the photography’s not quite there in terms of size or quality, which means I can’t showcase it on the blog (my standards are pretty high). Last week I decided to start a Pinterest of our own, follow us here if you’re on Pinte
Architecture by Alberto Campo Baeza
Today I found some much needed architecture inspiration, it's been a little while and I've been that way inclined for some time. In fact, as I'm not a trained architect myself I often learn things through general research, films, and other informative material on the subject. My bookshelf is stacked
The Obayashi Collection, A Tour of Takeo Obayashi’s Yu-un Guesthouse
We’ve been extremely spoilt here on the site with different documentaries and short films, today I’m taking the time to showcase another one thanks to Philip Dolin of Particle Productions, the man behind the Collections series for VIP Art. One that caught my attention was a piece on ‘The Obaya
Architectural Photography by Ippei Shinzawa
When it comes to architecture most just snoop around design firms websites, checking out the houses and admiring the images in different portfolios. But I seem to find myself looking more and more at the credits section where they associate each photographer with a specific house or collection of ph
Architectural, Interior & Furniture Inspiration at Al Que Quiere
Looking for some wacky and wonderful inspiration in the design field? Look no further than Al Que Quiere, it's been my go to site for a little while and I always seem to end up there through my reader. Although some of the designs and photographs are slightly off-beat for my personal style, you can'
Louis Kahn Visual Archive by Naquib Hossain
Wow, some incredible captures of buildings designed by the great architect Louis Kahn, photographed by Naquib Hossain. In fact Naquib has a small website dedicated to Louis Kahn which he has coined a “Visual Archive”, quite fitting for this particular series. If you’ve not seen it before I’d
Abstract Architectural Details by Photographer Yusheng Liao
Wow, this has been an extremely hard post to construct. I've been scouring through photographer Yusheng Liao's website titled 'Figure and Find' and I had to whittle it down to a summary of photographs which was near on impossible. Over the years he's amassed a substantial amount of photographs in hi
Santa Julia House by Emilio Marin Studio
Emilio Marín studied at the University of Chile, opening his studio, Emilio Marin Studio, in 2005. Two years later Juan Carlos López joined the project. One thing I like about them both is their conviction when defending their work philosophy; they enjoy the day to day, doing what they want to, wh
Marcel Breuer – Design and Architecture
After receiving a few new books in the shop I decided to highlight one in-particular, that being a new publication by Vitra Design Museum titled ‘Marcel Breuer – Design and Architecture’. It’s a book that I highly anticipated myself as a lot of Marcel’s architecture has gone slightly unnot
