Modern through the lens of Eugeni Pons

I last posted about Eugeni Pons in 2009 so naturally when I stumbled upon his site again there were plenty of new amazing photos to look through. A good handful of these interiors have a strong juxtaposition of older architecture mixed with new interior design elements. Once again Eugeni Pons does a stellar job at capturing the unique lighting that resides in these modern interiors.

Jan chair by Enblanc

The Jan chair by Enblanc for Nasu 303 is a timeless chair that rescues the warmth of wood and combines it with the tension of the fabric that extends across the backrest and the seat. To me the wood mimics a metal frame in the way it is presented here and I think that is why I am intrigued by it. I would certainly like to see some leather in the mix.

Prospect Place - Tina Manis

There is something so soothing and calming about this modern loft turned town house by Tina Manis. The objective with the monochromatic interiors was to keep the space open and flowing. I love a monochromatic color pallet when there are layers of texture, and this amazing home has loads of texture going on. Can you say herringbone floors, they are killer. I don’t know about the doily railing on the stairs though.

Petra and Tegola lamps by Studio Klass

The modern Petra and Tegola lamps were recently unveiled during Milan design week. The lamps are designed to be produced entirely in limestone, both composed in two parts to simplify the manufacturing process. I love the simple shapes the interlock creating beautiful subtle light giving sculptures.

Lake House by Kohn Shnier Architects

The Lake House by Kohn Shhier Architects is a stunning piece of modern architecture. I have and always will be a sucker for black and white and you mix that with a wall of glass, ya pretty much perfection. A design element that caught my eye was the fireplace, the fireplace itself isn’t huge but I love how the marble wraps around the wall adding texture and giving scale. The overhanging roof is a really nice architectural element that ads a beautiful visual plane.

Rune Bruun Johansen

Rune Bruun Johansen design’s are directly influenced by Danish design. I am mostly drawn to his storage pieces, I have never really been a fan of cherry wood but there are a couple of massive designs that are really outstanding. The use of brass in his pieces was nice to see, is brass making a come back in Mid Century and Danish? Or is it already back?
