a new exhibition from the german photographer thomas kalak at the picasso art museum in münster features his work documenting the electricity and telecommunications cables that appear omnipresent in bangkok. The cables spread into the furthermost corners of the city and grow into even the smallest kitchen to let them partake in the state-of-the-art power supply and technology.
The discovery of a finely crafted wooden box set into an existing building on 10th Ave. immediately defines the initial intentions of this design: mystery, discovery, and contradiction.
The visitor enters this rustic wooden box and is removed from the noisy Manhattan streets. An exquisite marble host-table floats within the space enclosed in reclaimed wood. However, this is only a glimpse of what exists beyond. The limited view increases the tension and desire for exploration.
Situated in Bromma, west Stockholm, this beautiful cosy apartment of 80 square meters is occupied by a couple with two kids. Every inch of the place has a personal story, starting with the artwork that can be found all over the apartment and ending with a personalized footprint right at the door. The yellow brick villa from the early 1960s shelters the cosy rooms in which the family finds time to come together and enjoy the balanced interiors. The couple kept the old doors and parquet flooring and decided to salvage what they can from the former residence and renovate according to their taste and style. Found on Skonahem, the apartment conveys a feeling of a well maintained and moderately patinated modernism. Combining vintage elements and modern accents, the residence ended up looking like a very personal space.
