My top 3 this month:
#1 APARTAMENTO MAGAZINE
#2 RUM MAGAZINE
#3 GLAMCULT
Apartamento is so real and shows the most original homes, living spaces and design solutions. I made an ode to Apartamento Magazine by a photoshoot. Rum Magazine is a danish interior and architecture magazine with the an incredible sense of taste. Glamcult showes the love for design, fashion, graphic design and photography.

Fascinating, forceful, clear and minimal architecture. These architects created wonderfull concepts. In the middle you can see The Truffle by Ensamble Studio.
The truffle is a piece of nature built with earth, full of air. A space within a stone that sits on the ground and blends in with the territory. It camouflages, by emulating the processes of mineral formation in its structure and integrates with the natural environment, complying with its laws.
They made a hole in the ground, piling up on its perimeter, the topsoil removed and obtained a retaining dike without mechanical consistency. Then, they materialized the air building a volume with hay bales and flooded the space between the earth and the built air to solidify it. The poured mass concrete wrapped the air and protected itself with the ground. time passed and we removed the earth, discovering an amorphous mass.

Vincent Fournier has spent the past decade and a half gaining access to some of the most controlled environments on earth – including government stations and training grounds – in an effort to expose the visual gems which can be found in these unforgiving landscapes. Capturing landscapes that could easily be from another planet, as well as scientific machinery and obvious space equipment, the Vincent Fournier ‘Space Project’ series depicts a mission of sorts. AMAZING!

This took my breath away. The installation is a collaboration between Transsolar climate enginners and Tetsuo Kondo Architects. It was shown at the Venice Biennale. Cloudscape creates a cloud in the interior of the Arsenale. Visitors can walk below, through, and above the cloud on a walkway that could easily be mistaken for a section.

In collaboration with Sarie Nijboer, Peter Dwars and Thom van Vreeswijk. We made a concept for the abandoned building, what used to be the North Train-station in Rotterdam. In concept, the building fuses with nature and the past.
This is what we are gonna see in a few. Romans, sticky romans. Soft pastels -like coral, red, ochre yellow, blur blue- and light plays an important part. These set-designs inspire me tremendously.
I love the work of Paul Octavious. He is a photographer placed in Chicago. Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including the physical elements of landforms, water bodies such as rivers, lakes and the sea, living elements of land cover including indigenous vegetation, human elements including land uses, buildings and structures, and transitory elements such as lighting and weather conditions.
