CLIPPING


CL3 Architects, Hong Kong

The Hong Kong based designers created the interiors of the Nishimura restaurant, which is located inside the Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing, China. The highlights here are the giant semi-sphere and oval recessed features made out of numerous timber plywood sheets.




No, I'm not talking about the Nobody chair by Komplot. I'm more in love with the manner the fluorescent tubes are used here actually - to a marvellous 'industrial' effect!


This latest image of EVO, a group of sustainably built condos on Grand Street in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, just warms my heart: a perfect example of how living green can be done stylishly and economically.

CLIPPING



Dining at the Buddha Bar removes one from the frenzy of urban life, and it's not difficult to see why.


A simple tree branch becomes a stunning chandelier when draped with optic lights from - surprise surprise - Ikea. Simple but chic.

This fur-lined 'cave' scares me a little...


Voon Wong & Benson Shaw, U.K

"A box is suspended from the ceiling of the new deck to create a galley kitchen, preserving the continuity of the floor and the perception of the open-plan room. This 'hanging' kitchen can be closed off with sliding panels."


Sigrid Jelambi, Venezuela

I really like what Jelambi did here. The white chinaware set against a fuchsia wall makes such a bold statement!
