Modern Bathroom Furniture from Ardino

Proving once and for all that white porcelain bathroom furniture is anything but boring… the Raguno modern bathroom collection from Ardino. Curvilinear and smooth, the wide expanse of the sink area appears inviting to the user. Its perfect surface is glossy and cool to the touch. The drain is carefully included in the design as a semi-circular gap down which water will disappear. from Modern Bathroom Furniture from Ardino

Munetsugu Hall by Norihiko Dan

Munetsugu Hall by Norihiko Dan was established in Naka Ward, Nagoya. It is located in a residential area, so particular attention was paid to sound insulation. The ceiling of the hall is nearly six meters high, while the flooring is made of 200-year-old Japanese red pine that had been used as beams in an old house. from Munetsugu Hall by Norihiko Dan

The Cape Schanck House by Jackson Clements Burrows

This house is located on a high dune at Cape Schank, Australia. The primary program is elevated to take advantage of expansive views across the Mornington Peninsula from Bass Strait to Port Phillip Bay. The house engages with the landscape in both form and materiality. The upper level extends westwards towards the views appearing to emerge from the Ti-tree over an artificial escarpment formed by the lower level. from The Cape Schanck House by Jackson Clements Burrows
