Unmoven light

This stunning installation is composed of hundred of units, which is pieces of glasses and covered with color. It is suspended from the walls and ceilings and transmits a shimmering world of light, shadow, and brillant color. The divided space are created by the twisted  sculptures that look like floating in the air. It seems the feeling that is the physical reality compares with the ideal reality when people stand in the space and always look out.

The House Incorporate Into This Nature

After the last post, i was thinking about to create a house that can incorporate into the nature and not to compete with the nature. It means the garden can reach  through the house. I would like to employ this space as a mini family golf course. Then the viewers can watch by the window on both sides.

Inspiration

This project is designed by Chilean architect Ricardo Torrejón. From enclosure, it is like a building that made up through several boxes. 

                           

            

The front and sides of the two-storey house are made up of flat concrete surfaces, only interrupted by the slit-like openings that create tiny semi-enclosed courtyards around the edges of the interior.At the back, the concrete framework is infilled with large glazing panels that provide floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the garden and swimming pool.

You can not see the entrance in front of the house. Actually, it is contained within one of the glazed openings and leads into an open-plan living space that occupies the entire floor.

Ricardo Torrejón wants the building incorporate  into this nature and not to compete with it. The most direct result of this carving operation is that the garden is present everywhere in the house. Even in rooms on the opposite side of the house it is possible to have a glimpse of it.
So if there are two or three children in this house, it will be necessary for their parents to watch and hear what they are doing in the garden?  At same time the privacy garden can be closely connect to the house.

Singapore Hotel Cover With Plants

This hotel is designed by WOHA on the edge of Singapore's Central Business District, which features large balconies and terraces covered in 15,000 square metres of tropical plants. Wong said that he wanted to create a hotel garden. Actually, the green areas in the building are larger than the site itself. I imagine that visitors who live in this hotel garden could not feel like they are live in business center. On the contrary, it seems that they have holiday at the place with wonderful garden view and sky terraces.

All the inspiration comes from rock formations. He said "It's a very organic feeling that you get from the building."
