LENS°ASS architecten
Some very cool projects from Belgium based Lens°Ass. I really like the minimal flavor that is present in most of their projects. I might be missing something with their website but there are projects that I really want to see more of. Let’s see who can come up with the best “unhappy hipster” caption for the second image.

PLEKS - Creating Visual Futures
PLEKS out of Copenhagen does a fantastic job of incorporating typography into their environments. They have such a great esthetic, I am sure influenced by their Danish surroundings. More after the jump.
The tension between research and practice informs our work. We balance the use of design as a strategic tool with craft-based traditions of value and quality.
Plywood + Concrete = Modern Bliss
Andreas Fuhrimann and Gabrielle Hächler have created this masterpiece of concrete and plywood, aka Chalet Lanel. I really love how minimal it is, a person would definitely feel all warm and cozy with all that beautiful wood grain. The location could not be any cooler either, just like that girl just chillin in the window. More after the jump.
Modern kitchens on the brain
In a month or so we are going to sell our home. The plan was to put an addition on, but cost wise it just doesn’t make sense right now. There is a reality that way may have to get a tract home, no big deal. We have been looking at kitchens and what we could do to make a “tract kitchen” modern. More after the jump.
Nela King - Friends of Friends
The flavor of Photographer Nela King’s home is exactly what I would call modern eclectic, but then again who am I. I really like the open feel of the main room and kitchen. No to sure about the picture of Marilyn Manson but that rosewood credenza has me at drool. Photos by Ailine Liefeld. The translation is a little rough. More after the jump.
Whether Marilyn Manson, Gwen Stefani, Heike Makatsch, or 50 cent - she had them all in front of the lens, thereby demonstrating not only her skills but also their international fame. Nela King was born in Berlin-Dahlem, but spent most of her childhood and adolescence abroad. Among the international stages of her early life include Tokyo, Singapore and Sydney. She began her career in front of and behind the camera and is now also the basis of personal and professional life. As the beautiful photographer, mother and wife will prevail and what is the secret of her unique images, she tells us in an interview.
