Sakura House, Meguro, Tokyo by Mount Fuji Architects
 |
What came to my mind were the two classic ‘Glass Houses’ by Mies and Philip Johnson. The sense of freedom and openness that makes us want to walk naked inside these houses surely owes to the transparency of the glass itself, but it is the fact that the buildings are surrounded by a pleasant environment ‘the forest’ that counts the most.
Since ‘the forest’ itself already provides a comfortable living environment, it is left for the architecture to separate internal to external atmospheres with thin, transparent membranes.They demonstrate that as long as there is an environment suitable for living, a ‘house’ is no more necessary.

Darling Point Apartment by Stanic Harding
 |
The apartment space was stripped back to bare shell and redesigned to celebrate the potential of an unhindered circular journey. The idea was to allow space to ooze out to the perimeter while keeping the core unencumbered. A series of sliding doors along the journey pull away from the core into the radiating walls that define the individual spaces. They were very conscious of the space between the ends of these radiating walls and the core as this formed an essential part of the experience. These spaces were curved and splayed to counter the beautiful walnut lining of the core. Connecting all these spaces within a circular plan allowed for a wonderful series of vistas out to the city skyline, harbour and the tree canopies of Darling Point.
Carpet Alarm Clock by Sofie Collin and Gustav Lanber
 |
Sofie Collin and Gustav Lanber have developed this Carpet Alarm Clock, which forces you to get up and step on it in order to turn it off. It sounds pretty good in theory, but you’d just end up walking back to your bed and falling asleep.
But why not design an alarm clock that quietly makes your coffee, brings in the paper and then makes you scones? Then I would definitely get up.

It can be opened up or closed back down depending on what configuration you want for the day. Read More…

Aqua Creation by Ayala Serfaty
 |
Ayala is the founder of Aqua Creations, along with her husband Albi. Together they create beautiful furniture, lighting and sculpture made of hand-dyed silk and other materials on a metal frame. The pieces, which have an other-wordly quality, are inspired on sea creatures and plants. The material tissue that serves as the surface of her lighting objects is a combination of clear polymer web and glass veins, and looks like a fine membrane that enwraps them. Serfaty called this a’spoma’, a term that in ancient greek means the physical body, with all its biological and vital dimensions.
