In order to minimize this contradiction, the new entrance was designed as a tube that orientates the flows to the foyer. Along the path, a ticket office and a coffee shop complete the complex..........more

JZA+D manipulated the corridor walls against each other and in opposition which resulted in curving forms that transform what was potentially a narrow and unwelcoming corridor into a dynamic centerpiece that ties the whole restaurant together.......more

Shoe Shop Interior Design | Sneakerology | Sydney | Australia | Facet Studio

In each of the 200mm x 600mm boxes, one by one, sneakers are carefully collected. The boxes are repeated, and offset by half unit on each level, and carried through repeatedly over an entire wall. Something which has little meaning on its own, when repeated 281 times over, it creates a euphoric effect for one to experience a heightened emotion. The merchandises neatly displayed in the fashion similar to the museum artefacts; through touch panels centrally located within the shop, one can gain further understanding of the background stories of the merchandises. Although there is really no such field of study as “sneaker-ology”, by placing our design focus on ways to correctly understanding the merchandises, it is for us an attempt at capturing “sneakers” in a scholarly fashion. .......more

Apartment Interior Design | The Painted Apartment | Chicago | Illinois | Krueck Sexton Architects

This Chicago apartment overlooks Lincoln Park and Lake Michigan. The client was no longer interested in living with paintings hanging on the walls but wanted to be surrounded by an integral work of art: to live within a painting.

Walls of backlit glass block, furniture, storage cabinets and perforated metal screens combine to define the plan. The floors, walls and ceiling are finished with a highly reflective paint that extends the space vertically. Accent colors on the floor dissolve into stenciled dots, horizontally extending the vertical geometry of screen partitions. Curving glass-block walls are illuminated from within and provide lighting. Functional separations are created by sliding panels and wardrobes, which are finished with highly polished metallic automobile paints........more
