Concrete Otterman



“bored out of its aristocratic life it turned into stone in order to endure the unmerciful weather, live
outside,
sleep under the stars and be connected to life”

The Amazing Cement Factory Loft by Ricardo Bofill




The factory is a magic place which strange atmosphere is difficult to be perceived by a profane eye. I like the life to be perfectly programmed here, ritualised, in total contrast with my turbulent nomad life.

Ommwriter from Herraiz Soto on Vimeo.



this omniwriter downloadable concept is a.ma.zing. not sure if i'd be able to write with all those sound effects but all those toolbars sure are a good riddance. so far and long have we strayed from the meaning of our words when we type on computers, vulgarly traded for bells, whistles, that it was high time for a comeback. can't wait to give it a go.




love the wallpaper on my iphone , click on the link and get it too ... it's beautiful

Jacob Ouillette's paintings





Jacob Ouillette's paintings are like pinwheels or solid bricks of colour. Beach umbrellas, quilt patterns, colour swatches - all the individual elements work together like cogs to create relationships that form the whole. These large scale oils become mesmerizing, and the site-specific ones are spectacular. Verve, movement and asymmetry make Ouillette's paintings lively without being overwhelming.

TOILET BRUSH AND HOLDER



This wooden toilet brush with natural fibre bristles comes with a galvanised bucket holder. A decent wooden toilet brush is hard to come by, I think this one does the job! from my favorite shop in london LABOUR AND WAIT
Townhouse in Landskrona. Sweden





The narrow site is sandwiched between very old neighboring buildings. Three thin slabs are projected into the open volume, softly dividing its functions. The continuous interior space is opening up to the street, to an intimate garden, and to the sky, would love to live like that

Who knew ?

For a geometric touch of grey in the living room, look no further than Ikea's Andrea rug. The hand-woven, 100% pure new wool floor covering has a naturally durable thick pile that will withstand daily wear and tear.

wall mirror by sahrah t. kang





This clever sliver of a mirror takes the shape of a partially open door that allows the passerby to catch a reflection of a counterpart or alter-ego living a parallel life. Glimpse leaves us to wonder what else is going on beyond what we can see.

NEW ! Vitra House > Weil am Rhein > Germany



the concept of the 'vitrahaus' connects two themes which are occurring in the architectural practice of herzog & de meuron
the five-storey structure is comprised of 12 'houses' - five houses are set at the base in which seven other houses are stacked upon one another. each of the structural volumes appear as if they have been shaped by an extrusion press and are cantilevered up to 15 metres in some places.
the floor slabs intersect the underlying gables, resulting in a three-dimensional assemblage or 'pile of houses'.
