Alpine Hut by Ofis Arhitekti
One thing that always puzzles me about architecture, or perhaps architects more specifically, is the way in which many firms present their projects online. You would have thought being design led in their thought process we would see an abundance of imagery and in this case short film that is aimed
Mies, Aalto and Le Corbusier Interiors Photographed by Mary Gaudin
New Zealand born photographer Mary Gaudin has been impressing me lately with a selection of photography over on her portfolio website, particularly a section of it which documents a variety of architects homes and builds. Three of my favourites feature here, Alvar Aalto, his home and and office in H
Asserbo house by Christensen & Co Architects
The last two days I've been spending quite a lot of time dedicated to scouring Denmark to see what I can find in terms of craftsmen and women, be this ceramic, metal, glass, or wood workers so hopefully we can bring a few of these individuals to light here in the next few weeks. In the meantime whil
Craven Road Studio by Shim-Sutcliffe Architects
I've literally gone around the houses today, as I searched for a dash of architecture that would remind us the value of great design. I found myself quickly fascinated by the work of Toronto based partners Shim-Sutcliffe who have created a great number of mesmerising, highly functional, sleek dwelli
Alvar Aalto Studio Outtakes by Leslie Williamson
One of the main things that keeps me constantly captivated and inspired is the small network we've been lucky enough to generate here. I love the idea that once we've shared the work of someone that isn't always the end of the line, I like checking back and seeing how creatives works have progressed
A Look Inside Le Cabanon by Le Corbusier
What a place! Le Corbusier's retreat called Le Cabanon which sits on a wooded cliff overlooking the Mediterranean. It's the only house that Le Corbusier actually designed for himself, a quaint little cabin which is miniature in scale and could be classed as a one-room cottage. He didn't design a kit
Architectural Photography by Richard Anderson
I've been scouring around the web for a little architecture today, with Andrew Geller from my last post sitting in the back of my mind. I enjoyed putting this piece together so much that I wanted to ensure I found something today that felt like it would present equal measure of ingenuity and design
Furniture and Objects at Frank Landau
Today I thought I'd wake up early to find some inspiration for a recent project that I've decided to take on, this involves both pottery and wood, it should interesting to see what comes out of it. Through general browsing I somehow stumbled across the Frank Landau website which is full of fantastic
Residential Series from The Andrew Geller Architectural Archive
We like unconventional thinkers here, the ones who think differently, who see possibility and disregard limitation. Mid-century architect Andrew Michael Geller fits snugly into this bracket with his experimental approach to architecture, having helped shape what we perceive mid-century modern archit
Creekside Residence by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson
It's pretty rare for me to get completely blown away by modern architecture, it's often the likes of Richard Neutra, Philip Johnson, and Frank Lloyd Wright that are the go to for a little architectural inspiration, but this home built only five years back by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson stopped me dead i
Mémoire De Le Corbusier Exhibition at Japanese Store EDANE
Earlier today I was entranced by this exhibition held at Japanese store EDANE which sells lots of knick knack type products, anything from ceramics to woodwork. The reason why I was fascinated was because the small exhibition in their store paid homage to the only and only Le Corbusier, a favourite
Transparent House photographed by Tim Van de Velde
Talking upon architecture we quickly learnt that the best source for finding great photographs is the photographers themselves, opposed to the actual firms that create each project. This perhaps sounds a little obvious but when you’re constantly on the lookout for content you soon become wise to t
