Interior Ideas!!

Here are few beautiful interior ideas I stumbled upon today (various blogs)!!

Corner Shop

PROJECT BACKGROUND

For more than two decades Fourth Floor has been doing things differently – cutting and colouring hair with maximum application and minimal fuss from its bright, split-level salon atop a 1930s industrial building in the heart of Clerkenwell. Accessed via a goods lift, it has remained firmly below the radar while attracting a fiercely loyal clientele and whilst many come from the arts, media, design and the creative industries all share with Fourth Floor an independence of thought and outlook. Its recent twentieth anniversary was marked by the publication of a clothbound book (click here to see the feature) featuring interviews, designs and recipes from clients including Jon Snow, Tom Dixon and Nigel Slater.

Now Fourth Floor is venturing into new territory. From the beginning of November to the end of December 2012, its upper floor — the fourth, in fact — will play host to the Fourth Floor Corner Shop, an emporium showcasing a selection of covetable wares from local businesses and designers based in Clerkenwell and Bloomsbury, who share Fourth Floor’s independent, idiosyncratic ethos. Clients will be free
to browse the concessions, pre- or post-appointment, while casual visitors will also be welcome to experience this unique retail environment. “It gives people a chance to see what we’re about, while also offering a showcase for our friends and neighbours,” says Fourth Floor owner Richard Stepney.

DESIGN NOTES

The ’4′ graphic was intended to inherit some of the DNA of the striped identity of the Fourth Floor packaging that North created some years ago. The Corner Shop logotype is loosely based on Skyline Black (designed by Imre Reiner C.1927) but has been completely redrawn.

El Bosquet / Arcadi Pla Masmiquel + Núria Pla Illa

Architect: Arcadi Pla Masmiquel + Núria Pla Illa
Location: Montagut, Aquitaine, France
Area: 215.11 sqm
Photographs: Arcadi Pla Masmiquel – Núria Pla Illa

The project consisted of the restoration of the house “El Bosquet”, which is inside the neighbourhood of “Can Gustí”, located in “La Vall de Riu”. The objective was to set the house up as a short-stage refugee. Thus, the restoration entailed the reinforcement of the stony walls, the change in the house layout turning it into a main space which encompassed the dining room and the living room, and the relocation of the services (kitchen and bathroom).

Colico Workshop / Cavagnaro Rojo Arquitectos

Architects: Cavagnaro Rojo Arquitectos
Location: Colico, IX Región, Chile
Architects In Charge: Carlos Cavagnaro, Daniel Rojo
Area: 45 sqm
Year: 2010
Photographs: Courtesy of Cavagnaro Rojo Arquitectos
Construction: Don Chalva
Structures: Cavagnaro-Rojo
Materiality: Pine wood
Budget: 9 UF per sqm

The assignment consists of developing a workshop for an artist, along with a bedroom and a bathroom.

As the budget was very limited and the distance to the site made a regular monitoring difficult during construction, we proposed a very simple volume, with local materials and easy construction, that takes advantage of the resources and building traditions of the place.

The lot, with a considerable slope, raises two necessary orientations to consider: one can see the lake to the south, and the mountains to the east.

Thus, the volume opens towards both views, particularly to the south, as the workshop requires a more uniform light.
