House in Chau Doc by NISHIZAWAARCHITECTS
Located in a suburb of ChauDoc town in AnGiang province, Southern Vietnam, this house is a sharing residence of 3 nuclear families who are kin. Although this project budget was tightened with local standards, which only allowed us to build a house with thin corrugated metal panels, we have tried to satisfy not only the regional spirits but also the rich lifestyle in which is fulfilled by sunlight, greenery and natural ventilation, as it were, living in a half-outdoor gardens.

TFD Restaurant | TFD
When lifestyle brand TFD wanted to add a restaurant to their store in Guangzhou, China, they knew the design needed to stand out and reflect their brand’s unique style. Design firm Leaping Creative was up to the challenge, and the stylish, minimal and monochromatic TFD Restaurant was born.
The open concept floor plan is dominated by black and white, the most used colours of fashion designers. These colours are not used in a predictable way, rather they intersect and interact playfully on the walls, floors, and furnishings. Special details add further visual interest: a linear wallpaper presents a fun optical illusion on select walls while oversized globes are attached to others. A straight line of circular lights across the ceiling provides a centre plane which the main room is designed around. One of the back rooms is a small installation space revolving around the egg, a popular ingredient on the restaurant’s menu. This lighthearted installation, visible from the dining room and adjacent store, features yellow walls and an egg sculpture
Axyl Collection | Layer
Axyl Collection is a minimalist furniture collection created by London-based designer Benjamin Hubert’s studio Layer for Allermuir. The focus of the collection was to utilize recycled aluminum in the Y-frame of the chairs, which uses just five percent of the energy required to create new aluminum. The chair shells, stool tops, and table tops consist of a variety recycled materials including wood fiber, reclaimed timber, and recycled nylon. The injection-molded shells for the stackable chair are manufactured in recycled plastic. The chairs are also available with an optional cushion that is made from repurposed nylon.
