A fireplace, a pool, a glass of fine wine, a beautiful panorama and … you simply fall in love with the Barton Creek Residence realized by Cornerstone Architects in Austin, Texas. The house has a harmonious contemporary style that incorporates work from local artists, warm wood custom pieces, a wide range of textures, spectacular light fixtures, luxurious rugs and miles of fabric window treatments. For example, I love the lounge area on the terrace because it is half inside, half outside, letting the inhabitants admire the surroundings while chatting on the sofa, around the fireplace. Moreover, the materials were used in natural colors, making luxury welcoming and inviting. As every designer says, form follows function and being practical does not mean you have to sacrifice luxury.

Stockholm's Konstfack is among the university design departments that occupy the removed North Building of the Javits Center this ICFF, a more manageable—albeit somewhat sparsely populated—exhibition hall in contrast to the main floor of ICFF. Despite—or perhaps because of—the largely theoretical curriculum of graduate programs in Industrial Design, the 11 first-year Master's candidates at Konstfack undertook a self-initiated project to actually make objects, which they first exhibited during Stockholm Design Week back in February. According to the Negative Space website:
What is a negative space?
Can it be framed by something other than matter?
Can a negative space be made tangible?Ten explorations on the possible meanings of negative space showcasing new and intriguing perspectives. By shifting focus from matter to the space that it occupies, the designers have found new ways of working by investigating the relationship between objects and the surrounding space. Presented here are a series of individual interpretations of negative space, culminating in a fascinating interplay between form, memory, movement, light and time.

Insofar as the theme itself is intangible, the students took a broad range of approaches; even in the case of light, which might be considered an easy metaphor for space, the inspiration and execution varied significantly. Nevertheless, the overall aesthetic of the work is quite minimal, in keeping with both the theme and Scandinavian design language...

For the not-so-serious businessman/woman, the Clip Bag playfully borrows its form from a common office item… the binder clip! Constructed of wool felt and aluminum tubing, the bag functions so well you might forget just how clever it is.
Designer: Peter Bristol

The Nenfa lamp takes inspiration from the shape of the lotus flower. The light structure grows from the ceiling, with each “leaf” suspended at a different height. The leaves are spread at random from the core, imitating the flowering pads. Composed of an impressive 21 discs, the lamp illuminates the space by reflecting light from one disc to another, creating multiple shadows. Flat LEDs are hidden in the upper part of the leaves, creating a visual illusion with regards to the source of the light.
Designer: Kutarq Studio

Maison de jardin ou maison-jardin? Ce qui n’était qu’un garage au coeur d’une très grande propriété est devenu une sorte de maison onirique, imaginée par les architectes du studio italien act_romegialli. Cette maison de jardin sert à entreposer le matériel de jardin, mais aussi à cuisiner et servir d’espace d’accueil.
Grâce à une structure métallique posée autour de la maison et à des espèces végétales bien choisies pour leur tenue au cours des saisons, l’abri est devenu un havre de paix végétal.
L’intérieur joue du minimalisme le plus extrême (ça reste un « abri de jardin », au final…), mais les architectes ont fait le maximum avec le minimum, comme le robinet « fait maison » avec deux tubes métalliques se rejoignant en un seul et deux vannes...From Diisign

Avec cette maison dont la végétation est un élément visuel majeur, les architectes d’act_romegialli ont réussi à faire mentir Frank Lloyd Wright, qui disait qu’un docteur peut enterrer ses erreurs, mais un architecte ne peut que conseiller à ses clients de planter de la vigne vierge…

Due to the new circumstances ,and the fact that the controlled obsolescence cycles were reaching its own terms ( fact that allows to recycle ourselves at the same tame) we are changing the actual bar to fit the new conditions.
Following the previous experiences after 8 years from the Hotel inauguration and after a deep reflection about the impermanency, we decided to design this new bar with a system much closer to stage building ,by assembling prefabricated modules which allow an easier installation...From Floornature

Today an old favorite! I blogged about this gorgeous home on Formentera two years ago and it has been a favorite of many readers. I just love the use of natural materials. Look at those large wooden doors! Also the wooden kitchen cabinets, the bathroom and the outdoor area are stunning.
Beautiful natural stone tile floors can be found through the entire home.
And of course the bathroom (images above and below) is stunning as well. I love the driftwood mirror, I have a similar one in my home.

Architects: TEN Arquitectos
Location: Nueva York, United States of America
Architect In Charge: Enrique Norten
Proyect Year: 2013
Photographs: Cortesia de TEN ArquitectosIn a neighborhood of high-end retail and luxury residences, this new branch library will fulfill a much needed role as a public space and touchstone for the local community and visiting tourists across from the Museum of Modern Art. Despite the library’s site being predominantly below grade and set at the base of a new 40-story hotel, this design proposal transforms the dark, subterranean space into an inviting, open and light-filled civic landscape in the heart of Manhattan.

The branch library’s identity is not put forth by an iconic façade symbolizing the New York Public Library as an institution. Instead, the façade...
