Modern apartment with a vintage touch

post

Jordane Arrivetz is an interior designer who finds her inspiration from different aspects of the design culture, especially the 50s and 60s. The apartment she styled combines modern, clean lines, like the kitchen counter and bathroom, with vintage elements  like the old ladder in the kitchen and the frames in the living room. I think both are very well combined and give the apartment character and personality.

Modern Kitchen with built in herb garden

post

There’s something about this big, light kitchen, designed by Steininger that you just have to love. This luxurious area with metal, wood and white panels and natural wood floors even has a built in herb garden with special lighting to make the plants grow more. It’s nice to have some fresh herbs close by while cooking, but it also adds a splash of green to the otherwise natural and muted room, which makes it even nicer.

Carbon Chair by Bert Jan Pot

post

In the development of the Fiberglass DSR Chair by Charles Eames, more than fifty years ago, a carbon prototype of the chair was built. Till today, the prototype still stands because of it’s brilliant engineering. Bert Jan Pot designed the Carbon Chair in corporation with Marcel Wanders for Moooi, inspired by the carbon prototype Eames once created.
The pattern on the seat is very intriguing and reflects the strength pattern of the original DSR chair. Every point on the rim of the chair is connected with the four points connecting the seat to the base frame. But most of all, I think this chair is really pretty to look at.
