PLASTOLUX "keep it modern"

Modern interiors by Jeffrey Thrasher Design

Tyler — Tue, 21 May 2013 12:00:56 +0000

Jeffrey Thrasher has an amazing talent that ranges from ultra modern to a warm modern cabin in the woods. As a collector of art and furniture Jeffrey enjoys working with like minded clients and it shows throughout his portfolio. New York pied-à-terre is my favorite project as it contains many elements of a mid century modern space that I love so much.

“I like working on multiple projects for clients because each city brings with it a different challenge,” he remarks. “I love working with art and furniture collectors, which I’m doing frequently now. I’ve been a collector my entire adult life, so I understand what it means to design rooms that complement great art and furniture.”

Hai by Luca Nichetto for one Nordic Furniture Company

Tyler — Mon, 20 May 2013 20:00:05 +0000

The “Hai” chair by Luca Nichetto for one Nordic Furniture Company, is quite nice. A little Paul McCobb with a sprinkle of Eero Saarinen maybe? I really like the design and would love to see a pair of them in a rust orange material so the frames had a nice contrast with the body of the chair. The positioning looks to be a comfortable lounging position.

‘Hai’ lounge chair is the result of the combination of functional requirements and complementary stylistic values. Here the request to create an object of great quality and strong personality has met the functional requirements related to packaging derived from the world of online sales.

Contemporary art meets mid century modern

Tyler — Mon, 20 May 2013 12:00:26 +0000

The mix of contemporary art and mid century modern pieces in this apartment is beautifully balanced striking a harmonious balance. This has to be my favorite style, sometimes the two styles can look cohesive and sometimes the juxtaposition can be equally stunning. The Gio Ponti headboard in pic 2 is one of my favorite pieces in the whole place. These are only a few of the images, make sure to check out the rest of the place.

Marin County Residence by Dirk Denison Architects

Tyler — Sun, 19 May 2013 12:00:20 +0000

The crisp clean lines and color of the Marin County Residence by Dirk Denison Architects is almost a feeling of “purity”. One element of the project that I really like is all of the modern landscaping both on the interior and exterior. The choice locations with large glass windows, always give a view to an amazing tree or modern landscape design. I would love to look out my window and see one of those Japanese Maples looking back at me.

Oscar Properties

Oscar Properties develops, buys and sells real estate in central Stockholm. They focus on a modern aesthetic creating a brand that everyone wants. I love these images but I can’t tell if they are renderings or the real deal. Some of these spaces are a nice integration of small touches of others styles.

Salvatori presents DRITTO by Piero Lissoni

Tyler — Fri, 17 May 2013 20:00:48 +0000

I am really liking the DRITTO by Piero Lissoni, especially the larger dining table. The thin geometric iron base matched with an elegant slice of Carrara Marble or Pietra D’Avola give this piece a floating feeling. Depending on where you stand, one might see a “geometric line drawing” and from another view, see an intricate surface.

Australia House by Andrew Burns Architect

Tyler — Fri, 17 May 2013 12:00:06 +0000

The vanishing point of the Australia House by Andrew Burns Architects creates an extreme roof line that seems to be pointing to something in the sky. The black exterior is a monochromatic spectacle that I personally love. Maybe a little to much wood flavor going on with the interiors but beautiful none the less.

Australia House is a gallery, studio and atelier in the ’snow country’ of Niigata Prefecture, approximately three hours north of Tokyo. The building replaces a previous structure which collapsed in a powerful aftershock on March 12, 2011. The Australian Embassy Tokyo, Tokamachi City Government and the Echigo-Tsumari Triennale resolved quickly to construct a new building and it stands as a symbol of healing and transformation in this beautiful area of Japan.

“During winter, the site can experience 1.5m of snow during one day, and this was a key consideration in the design, with the roof pitching steeply. The building alternates between a familiar domestic presence and that of an art object. The interiors form a large ‘perception device’, heightening views of the surrounding landscape and creating opportunities for art installation.”

NaMu by Peter Yong Ra

Tyler — Thu, 16 May 2013 20:00:17 +0000

NaMu by Peter Yong Ra is a beautifully crafted chair that looks to be the next generation of heirloom quality furniture. Will our children be furiously trying to find these chairs after several decades? I really like the leg supports, different and elegant.

NaMu was designed to embody family valuables and the sensibilities rewarded from them. On a daily basis everyday objects are inherited and passed down from one generation to another to become family heirlooms. The NaMu chair represents the enduring moments that are formed with these meaningful treasures. The word Namu, meaning ‘tree’ in Korean, celebrates the importance of family roots and the stories found within them.

Richardson / Dondoe Loft by Workshop for Construction

Tyler — Thu, 16 May 2013 12:00:06 +0000

I have always had the desire to reside in a loft, the concept of an open industrial space is very appealing to me. The Richardson / Dondoe Loft by Workshop for Construction is a fantastic modern loft with amazing walls of glass. Black and white combined with the concrete floors make for a perfect blank canvas. The interiors are not over done with attention to a few key pieces including art.

Henrybuilt’s new modern modular shelving system aptly named Opencase, not only matches the beauty and quality of there other products but allows for complete versatility. I could think of a million ways to utilize this system in my home.

The Opencase works in a wide range of applications and is designed to evolve with the user’s needs over time. Starting point configurations have been developed for entryways, libraries, offices, wine storage, pantries, wardrobes, utility closets, laundry, and children’s rooms. A single Opencase panel can easily be adapted to a wide range of uses. The Opencase is representative of how Henrybuilt’s combination of function, craft, durability, and beauty come together to create a superior living experience.
