Vietnamese architectural firm a21 studio has completed in 2012 the a21 House. Located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, this contemporary office looks like a wild-cage which is bathed in sunlight, inundated by rain-water, fully surrounded by tree.
According to the architects: Every morning, the first thing that I would like to have is drawing first lines in a comfortable and joyful mind…I simply want our studio like a wild-cage which is bathed in sunlight, inundated by rain-water, fully surrounded by tree… and non-frontier space … And we are like wild beasts in cage, stay temporary momentary but thirst for living.”
Thank you for reading Contemporary Office Design Bathed in Sunlight and Fully Surrounded by Trees ! You can find the original article on DesignRulz...

Con la idea de llevar los parques eólicos a la ciudad -sin necesidad de grandes turbinas- el edificio propone la utilización una fachada cinética que convierte el movimiento del viento en electricidad.

On May 18th, we celebrate the 130th birthday of one of the most highly regarded modern architects of the 20th century, Walter Gropius. Gropius’ contribution to architecture is that of an architect, philosopher and educator. He was the founder of the Bauhaus, the German “School of Building” that embraced a “total art” in the arts’ production and influence in the social context. This “laboratory” was an effort to incorporate the elements of art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and typography in its design, development and production.
More after the break.
Gropius’ ideas developed in the post-war climate of Europe; the Bauhaus existed in the years between both World Wars, greatly influencing the current of modern art and architecture....

Espace Loggia a réalisé une étude – avec IPSOS – sur les nouveaux modes de vie des français, et a sorti tout une collection de lits intelligents, lits mezzanine…
Le fabricant français – Espace Loggia – se penche sur l’émergence des foyers dynamiques et propose des solutions, qui permettent aux logements de s’adapter au fil des jours, à la composition et recomposition des familles d’aujourd’hui. En effet 59% des français voudraient trouver de nouvelles possibilités d’aménager leur maison, sans avoir à déménager… Pour répondre à ça, trois modèles :
.
Le Triptyque : Le principe du Triptyque est de compiler en une seule structure les éléments d’une chambre, d’un salon et d’un bureau. Un dressing peut également être proposé en option.
.
Le Champ Libre Electrique : C’est la version motorisée du Champ Libre qui se monte au plafond d’un seul appui du doigt. Ce nouveau plateau mobile offre trois possibilités d’aménage- ment pour un intérieur.
.
Le Plateau Mobile Champ Libre : La nouvelle génération du lit escamotable.

Canny Design created this modern residence in 2011 for a client living in Malvern, Victoria, Australia.
It is a sophisticated addition to an area already known for its impressive properties. The home is cleverly stepped from front to back across three simple levels at the ground floor, maintaining the flow and accentuating the sense of transition through the interior spaces. Elegantly proportioned design and a flexible floor plan makes room for everyone, with three brilliantly integrated living zones, four spacious bedrooms and a study, as well as a two-car garage. The kitchen design is deceptively simple with clean lines and finishes, yet still manages to encapsulate an enormous amount of storage, perfect for a family home of this size. The sliding doors allow the kitchen to expand...
