The architects of SHH have designed and built the interior of Kensington House, a luxury home built on several floors in London, a wealthy couple with a great family to be accommodated. An entire floor is occupied by the owner’s suite, while on other floors are five bedrooms total for guests, the envelope of the house is that of a true home of luxury, with a garden, a swimming pool, cinema room and a room pool.

The demands of the owners as to the palette of colors were very clear: white, cream and “funky.” Then in some local interior designers have also decided to play around with different shades of color, especially in areas dedicated to children.

The furniture and walls bear the names of prestige, especially of Italian design: Ipe Cavalli, Minotti, Edra (recognizable by the Boa sofa & Fernando Campana Humberto Campana), B & B Italy.

Preserving our precious oxygen, is the challenge of future generations. To achieve this objective, all good wishes are welcome. Where my heart for helping the construction project called Smog. For the record, smog is a kind of haze pollution that envelops most large modern cities. Smog is an architectural project both futuristic and environmentally friendly. Better still, this building seems out of a sci-fi is decontaminating.

It consists of 2 buildings with positive energy: the water drop (Solar drop), superstructure made of polyester and photovoltaic cells, and the other tower of the wind (Wind Tower), whose helical structure is embedded Small wind turbines set vertically. While the drop of the Solar PV system produces electricity, the TiO2 coating interacts with ultraviolet light to degrade the pollutant particles in the air. Clearly, this green building will help to recycle and purify the polluted air of the Paris area where it should be implemented (in the 19th district near Canal Ourcq to be precise).

The Wind Tower, meanwhile, rises to the sky like a worm, with a facade that alternates vegetation, and vertical axis wind turbines embedded, in order to capture the prevailing winds. This building is self-sufficient in energy. In short, Anti-Smog is currently an architectural project in both design and environmentally friendly, but I cross my fingers for him to see the day soon. It is a matter of survival.

With Casa Areia, the study of Lisbon Aires Mateus Architects wants to rethink methods and architectures for life on the beach. Who said that a house should always be equal to itself even a few meters from the sea? A little ‘hut and a little’ town house, at least in the furnishings, Casa Areia spin off the joint of the living and sleeping area into two separate blocks, a dozen steps away from each other.

But the novelty, a bit ‘sensational and spectacular, it’s all in the non-floor living area, a blanket of sand designed to remind those who walk on the skin of the specificity of the genius loci. Joke, summer formula or concept calibrated specific latitudes? The project was presented at the Biennale in Venice.

Living in a skyscraper can have its charm, except for those who suffer from vertigo. These are the interiors of a small apartment in Miami, edited by Ruben Gutierrez ERREZ of Design. The urban style blends with a rustic flavor: the classic lines of the sofa, for example contrasts nicely with the contemporary context and the background black, retro chandelier in the dining area is opposed to the modern glass-top table or cabinet finish.

Note the design of recognizable classical pieces scattered around the house, like chairs by Philippe Starck, and the beautiful panoramic angle obtained on the balcony, praising it clear to the metropolitan style.

The container is equipped with an air conditioning system, suitable for both cold to the hot season. The small “house”, delicious and very easy, you can adapt well for office-studio.

the house designed by Melbourne designer Michael Morris and Christine Berry, as his home: the couple had to struggle with government control because of a historic house that sits right next door, with the small size of land and an ancient pepper tree that can not be destroyed.

The two professionals are able to meet all the constraints, and now the three-story house sits under the lush foliage of the tree sculpture, almost without being seen from the road. And the wall that hides the rainwater tanks for irrigation of the vertical garden, serves as a fine display of plants and flowers.

The interior is elegant and sober, and are home to several pieces of design in the kitchen, along with hanging wood from sustainable forests, a wardrobe of red Abet laminates gives character to the environment, while the major brands of appliances (such as Franke, Elite, honey) emphasize functionality. In the lounge, which is accessed via a lift, sofas and armchairs Maralunga Cassina, ottoman coffee table with B & B Italy, dining table back to Italy B & B chairs and Zanotta. The mobile TV on the wall with a fireplace and Eco Smart.

In the bedroom, bed and bedside tables were designed by Australian Gordon Johnston.

In this apartment the unifying element that strongly affects the eye is the use of almost all the varied geometric shapes, combined in various ways and especially with different visual effects, data, materials and colors. All geometric, sometimes linear, sometimes more rounded, also made up of large pieces of design, makes the elegant, well organized and friendly, as well as enjoyable to watch.

The living room sofa is made from Groundpiece Flexform velvet, which are combined with tables of Duchamp Minotti, with sanded floor plate, the leather seats of Atlan Minotti and the modern fireplace Mm Dae. The lighting, in addition to recessed spotlights in the ceiling, is enriched by the lights of Hot Achille Ingo Maurer lamp in stainless steel and Fil de Fer Catellani & Smith of aluminum wire.

The living room is divided from the dining area by a containment structure and a double-sided booths particular curvilinear model The slat Bonacina Pierantonio. The dining table is the Vernissage of Alivar, while the chairs are the Glove Molteni & C. The chandelier is impressive and Lolli Memmolo.

The kitchen is very linear and neutral, thanks to the lacquered finish in white, stainless steel top and the large square-shaped hood.

In this flat Australian Weir Phillips Architects designed the study, the unusual aesthetic and functional solutions are rather numerous. Meanwhile, the mix of styles is the most eclectic you can find a few square meters: design pieces, such as Philippe Starck Ghost chairs are complemented by tastes rather kitsch, but in two separate dining areas close to each other . And just to make this one of many possible examples.

However, the strangest of this particular apartment is the pool in the living room: a small recreational area that does not mean the living space when not in use, as a “folding”, just as the portion of the roof above, designed to capture the rays of during sun bathing.

Built in the city of Phoenix, Arizona, a huge crush on the beautiful Residence Yerger, an impressive villa with swimming pool designed by the architects of Chen + Suchart Studio. Proposing huge volumes and a large living room that can fully open to the outside through a system of sliding windows, we especially liked the little daylight between the pool deck into two parts and seems like entering in the house.
