Modern King Residence by John Friedman Alice Kimm

John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects has designed modern king residence situated in the Sunset Park neighborhood of Santa Monica. The white and green exterior pattern is designed to mimic the dappled light coming through trees. More important, the architects placed the four-bedroom, four-bath house toward the back of the lot, not only creating a large yard in front but also exposing the heart of the L-shaped home to the neighborhood.



“That really confuses people,” Erin says. “People come over and ask, ‘Why did your architects take away your backyard?’ ” For the Kings, the design takes little away. Rather, it gives them a front porch — a patio, actually, that functions as a modern interpretation of the traditional porch.

Grey Goose bar by Puresang

Antwerp designers Puresang have completed stylish interior design of a full operating bar located in the headquarters of vodka brand Grey Goose in Brussels. The bar features a faceted wall composed of blue, triangular mirror-tiles and has a conference table at one end of the bar. This bar connects to a meeting table and can act as a luxurious drinking area in line with their product, as well as a place to conduct business.



Grey Goose asked for a high-roller drinking environment that could also be used as a meeting room. That’s why the light structure is custom made for this project and reflects the sparkles of ice. The wall at the end of the bar gives the room a dramatic feel without being too ‘product placing’. The bottles are used as a screen that feels as an ice wall.
