Russian architect Svetozar Andreev has released a new vision for the stone Azure Window arch of the Maltese Islands. The iconic landmark collapsed after a storm in 2017, and Andreev proposes a new mirrored metal arch to take its place. Dubbed the Heart of Malta, the design was created as a polygonal form with the same size and proportions as the original limestone arch. Inside, a new exhibition space will include five floors connected by a central spiral.

lee jung-hoon cuts a virtual form of wormhole out of his furniture

a wormhole is a phenomenon created in spacetime of the universe linking black hole and white hole. the idea of wormhole originated from the worm-eaten hole in an apple has brought the humankind the insatiable curiosity and mystery which have appeared in science fiction and served the scientific theory as well. we see the organic features in worm hole symbolizing the birth and life which are represented by the bellybutton of a mammal or the stalk end of the fruit. korean designer lee jung hoon’s work is intended to apply the beauty of moderate curve contained in the unknown dent image of the wormhole and unconventional aesthetic value of distorted space to furniture design — the collection comprises chairs, drawers, and plates.

A courtyard in Bawa's campus for the University of Ruhuna. ph Harry Sowden

Despite his late entry into architecture, Geoffrey Manning Bawa FRIBA, (July 23, 1919 – May 27, 2003), explored modernism and its cultural implications and created a unique, recognizable style of design which had a lasting impact on architects across the world. Well versed in Modernist theory, Bawa was one of the original proponents of Tropical Modernism, a design movement in which sensitivity for local context combines with the form-making principles of modernism. Bawa’s architecture led to the formation of a new architectural identity and aesthetic for many tropical environments, and won him recognition and awards, including the Chairman’s Award of the Aga Kahn Special Chairman’s Award for Architecture (2001) and the title Deshamanya, in recognition of his contributions to his country by the government of Sri Lanka.

architecture studio, ramoprimo, has created the bright and colorful keaami restaurant in beijing, china. the project aims to offer an authentic contemporary thai experience and the design is inspired by the cuisine of thai chef purida ‘pu’ theeraphong, which is characterized by a kaleidoscope of colors and flavors.

the walls are designed by the architect using rotating columns, with each side covered by colored patterns. as these objects rotate, the space changes in appearance by using three configurations of felt fabric, traditional bamboo and rattan straw mats and alternately showing the evocative colors of blue, green and wood. activated by customers, the prisms can further rotate to create endless possible variations and create the effect of a large lenticular printing wall which changes as the viewer moves.

Museo M9, Mestre

È il primo, grande museo totalmente ed esclusivamente multimediale in Italia e un progetto di riqualificazione urbana nella città di Mestre. Il museo è diviso in otto grandi aree tematiche, non c’è un percorso cronologico. Gli otto grandi temi sono distribuiti su due piani dell’edificio e dunque ogni visitatore può costruirsi un percorso secondo i propri interessi. M9 è un museo del Novecento italiano. Il museo è opera dello studio berlinese Sauerbruch Hutton. ph Alessandra Chemollo, Polymnia Venezia

Text description provided by the architects. M9 is a museum of the cultural inheritance of the 20th century, located in a small museum quarter in Mestre, the mainland gateway to Venice. An agent of urban renewal, this educational institution and events venue provides a point of local identification and helps to redress the disparity of cultural wealth between Mestre and the tourist magnet across the lagoon. The museum building likewise offers public facilities on the ground floor, including a media library, an auditorium, a museum shop and a café.

Fotogramma da webcam dell’installazione realizzata sul tetto dello studio dell’artista a Middelburg. Galleria Fumagalli

Il progetto dal titolo Bird's-eye view di Marinus Boezem, a cura di Lorenzo Bruni, propone un’ampia installazione site-specific realizzata con semi di mangime per volatili. La materia organica, nutrimento animale ed evocatrice del ciclo naturale della vita, disegna sul pavimento della galleria lo spazio fisico e concettuale della pianta della Basilica di San Francesco ad Assisi. Grazie anche ai rami d’albero posti alle pareti, l’intervento installativo trasforma il contenitore architettonico in un luogo di suggestioni in cui le categorie di esterno e interno, cultura e natura, storia e memoria, realtà e poesia, richiedono d’essere riformulate.

stefano pujatti reinterprets heritage buildings of northern italy with STONED

stefano pujatti, italian architect and founder of elasticoSPA, has completed the residential project entitled STONED. located in the northeastern italian comune of san quirino, the renovation comprises a single family house and an attached guest house. the project is distinguished by its materiality, a reinterpretation of traditional concrete and stone, which speaks to the vernacular of the heritage buildings of the area. pujatti’s inventive use of stone offers a contemporary element which maintains a seamless harmony with its context, as many of the walls of the original structure have been preserved.

Architect Carlo Ratti has worked with Indian non-profit WeRise to develop a system of low-cost housing with a prefabricated core that homeowners can build any structure they like on top of.

The Livingboard system, which is currently being tried in a pilot project in a village just outside Bangalore, is designed to support housing development in rural areas anywhere in the world. It combines elements of prefabricated housing with the do-it-yourself approach of the open-source and maker movements. Homeowners receive the key functional parts of the house prefabricated and flat-packed — incorporating elements like waste management and water treatment systems — and then design and build the home they want on top of that.

gardens

Temples frequently have at least some form of garden, whereas shrines are often placed within naturally occurring landscapes. As Buddhism traveled in waves from China, so too did Chinese garden aesthetics. The early forms of Japanese gardens were informed by their Chinese counterparts. Zen rock gardens are heavily associated with Japan, but these also came in via Chinese influence.

Tríptico Infame by Pedro Paulo-Venzon departs from the typical structure of a devotional painting to form play between lack and balance, sacred and profane, lightness and severity, zero-degree functionality, and concern with the narratives that underpin the culture of design.

Pedro Paulø-Venzon is a designer who has produced objects and artifacts created from the discussions surrounding contemporary and modern design in Brazil. Most recently he’s been focused on the production of syntheses between the authorial and industrial, local and global, and tradition and its displacements.

Exhibition designed by Kossmann.dejong gives rise to Israeli censorship. In the exhibition Welcome to Jerusalem, historical, political and religious aspects of the city are shown, and it includes works by both Palestinian and Israeli artists. A multi-layered exhibition has been created through the tailor-made theatrical settings of the 15 themed rooms, the use of multimedia tools and special collection pieces. Whereas one virginal white room exudes a sense of sacredness in order to highlight the story of the three religious schools of thought, a 360-degree film installation is used to sketch a moving portrait of the cycle of increasingly complex conflicts in a room that is dedicated to ‘the city in political conflict’.

Welcome to Jerusalem can be seen in the Jewish Museum Berlin until 30 April 2019.

Frank Lloyd Wright's geometric Taliesin 1 armchair, which the American architect designed for his own home, is in production for the first time in 28 years. Lloyd Wright designed the chair in 1949 for the living room of his Taliesin West home and studio in Arizona, where he lived until his death in 1959.

The piece wasn't mass produced until the late 1980s, when Italian furniture brand Cassina first released a version of it, but was discontinued shortly after in 1990 for being "too avant-garde". However the Taliesin 1 armchair is finally back on the market, reissued by Cassina in partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The chair is on sale in its original beech plywood form with a cherry wood veneer, which can be left natural or stained in black oak.

Moroso, Tape, design Benjamin Hubert

Tape is an innovative product which brings together fashion, technology and sustainability. A modular range of seats and small tables in which polyurethane tape, used for sports clothing, is applied to join together small-sized scraps of fabric, which otherwise could not be used. The tape is therefore an aesthetic feature of the sofa as well as having an important functional role. The Tape sofa comprises a series of different “building blocks” – seats, backs and armrests – elements which can be placed together to create ever-different combinations able to adapt the design to large public spaces and also to smaller living areas.

the korean designer, chiho cheon, has created ‘art in daemyung’ for the garden of daemyung resort in south korea. for the first time, daemyung resort asked sangmyung university to produce an artwork that would complement the outdoor garden environment. the resulting design by cheon acts as a piece of furniture, but also as a boundary to the site. 

cheon uses materials to express his ideas and this project uses large stones to relate to the mountain backdrop and to represent nature. the design also uses stainless steel, which represents the man-made element, and also creates a connection between nature and man-made materials. by creating both an art work and a bench, cheon aims to express that by sitting down, nature itself can have its function.

jack-o'lantern by Lucie Koldova for Brokis

http://www.brokis.cz/


Wästberg, the Swedish lighting company, has unveiled an addition to its Holocene collection – Holocene No. 4: John Pawson, in collaboration with internationally celebrated architect John Pawson. 

John Pawson’s design for Holocene takes the notion of the oil lantern and meticulously reduces it to its essence in terms of function, form and palette, as a container for fire, with the means to carry or suspend it for the home and beyond, given its versatility. Crucible-like in profile, the oil lantern is fabricated in stainless steel and aluminium, with matte exterior surfaces and a polished internal core, to reflect and amplify the flame.

Lou Collection by Aldo Cibic per Venini

Realizzata in vetro artistico di Murano lavorato a mano, Lou esplora il confine tra la natura di vaso e quella di lampada. I riflessi di luce e le molteplici interpretazioni delle proprietà del vetro sono protagonisti di un gioco inaspettato. I tre modelli, dalla natura ambigua, puntano sull’effetto sorpresa: la lampada diventa un vaso e viceversa.  Lou rivela l’intensità dei colori del vetro quando la luce è spenta, per poi restituire la dimensione eterea della materia prima nel momento in cui la lampada viene accesa

right, anfora etrusca a figure nere, civico museo archeologico, Milano, Il Viaggio della Chimera. Gli Etruschi a Milano tra archeologia e collezionismo,

Oltre duecento reperti, materiali di grande pregio, in alcuni casi opere eccezionali, animano una esposizione storica per i contenuti, per il fatto che questi contenuti sono dispiegati in una sede milanese. L’avvio del percorso è affidato alle origini del collezionismo di arte etrusca nella nostra città, in una Milano che vuole e sta già rinascendo dal disastro della Seconda Guerra Mondiale. Il tema della terza sezione è il mondo animale, con le sue creature reali e fantastiche che popolavano l’immaginario che il defunto incontrava nel suo viaggio ultraterreno: è di proprietà dell’Archeologico milanese il vaso con raffigurazione di chimera che pubblicizza l’esposizione. La modernità dell’azione culturale è supportata dai moderni metodi di indagine geofisica operati dalla Fondazione Lerici, come anche dai ritrovamenti negli scavi universitari milanesi nel Mantovano. Passato, presente e futuro: tre categorie temporali, che vi permettono di vivere un’esperienza intensa  al Museo Archeologico di Corso Magenta fino al 12 maggio 2019, in attesa del futuro Museo Etrusco di Palazzo Bocconi,che ospiterà l’importante collezione della Fondazione Luigi Rovati il cui progetto è affidato all’architetto Cucinella.

with over 25 years of experience, masayo fukuda is a master of kirie, the japanese art of paper cutting that literally translates to ‘cut picture’. the traditional craft involves negative space being cut from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasted against a black background. with 2018 drawing to a close, the artist has released images of her latest piece of work, which she also believes is her highlight creation of the past year. ph spoon & tamago

cut from a single sheet of white A2 paper, masayo fukuda has created an intricately detailed kirie octopus that stands out from the deep black background beneath. from its eyes to many tentacles and even its veins, the artwork took two months to complete with its details so fine it almost appears to be created by using a ball-point pen. with her hands holding the piece from underneath, the delicateness of the web-like cut of paper is highlighted even more.
