An interior design project by Asylum.
Inspired by the hurried state of development that is Shanghai, we wanted to design the BBH office as a catalyst for social commentary. The resulting space has a raw and always-under-construction design language that echoes the city’s mood. Big bold maps of BBH international offices were splashed on cabinets to bring the work areas to life. The meeting rooms were designed to resemble half torn-down houses with different rooms themed to simulate an actual apartment’s living space, kitchen, child’s room and even bathroom!
Thanks Cheryl for the images!

This apartment’s interior is designed by Dutch architects, i29. It features two storeys and four people live there. Thanks to using original laser cuts panels in the kitchen and other areas of the apartment, the interior looks quite creative and unusual. Besides the laser cut panels there are also other things that makes it unique, including built-in storage solutions and designers furniture. Before the renovation, the apartment had a lot of rooms but it become a spacious, transparent dwelling full of light and air. Upstairs the master bedroom is situated next to a large bathroom with a finish of structured tiles from Patricia Urquola, glass, and wooden cabinets.

The Club is Ministry of Design’s latest high design boutique hotel offering in the uber chic Club Street conservation area with 22 distinctly unique rooms, a rooftop skybar with alfresco deck and a destination F&B venue with a tapas bar on the ground floor.
Conceptualizing The Club’s branding, MOD has orchestrated a unified design vision to all related collateral, signage and spatial environments. Targeted at the design and lifestyle savvy global nomad, The Club’s blend of sophisticated and comfortable design is at once distinctly local as it is cutting edge global.
Colin Seah, Design Director says, “Searching to ground the hotel in the context of Singapore as well as the historically rich conservation area of Club Street and Ann Siang Hill, we drew its inspiration from 2 sources.” “The first is Singapore’s colonial past, which we have made modern tongue-in-cheek references to through art installation like features such as an larger-than-life statue of Raffles with his head in the clouds as well as through some key furniture pieces and artifacts.

The design concept for Nike’s first flagship store in Tokyo, which also happens to be the largest in the nation at 946 square meters, is a playing field. It is an experience-based store with facilities such as the Runner’s Studio for selecting shoes that match the individual’s feet and running style and the NIKEiD STUDIO. The interior also expresses the joy of sports by integrating characteristically NIKE items such as the shoes for the chandelier and the waffle molds of the outsoles as a decorative element for a wall. The surrounding environment to the foot traffic flow from the Omotesando street where the store is located has been well considered in the store layout and the interior design resulting in two entrances on both sides of the store.

Derriere is a fairly unique restaurant concept in the heart of Paris. It offers to its guests the qualities of having a gourmet dinner in a restaurant with the comfort and warmth of eating in a traditional Parisian home.
There is no way I will know if it is a restaurant if it is not stated and without doubt, it is definitely the most heartwarming one isn’t it?

Heatherwick Studio was commissioned to design a café building to replace a seafront kiosk in Littlehampton, a traditional seaside town on England’s south coast. Exposed to weather and vandalism, the narrow site sits between the sea and a parade of houses.
The studio saw its challenge as being to produce a long, thin building without flat, two-dimensional façades.
The building is sliced diagonally into ribbons which wrap up and over the building, forming a layered protective shell, open to the sea in front. The opening is filled with glass doors and windows, protected at night by roller shutters concealed within the building’s geometry, the 30-centimetre width of the ribbons being the dimension of a shutter mechanism.
In contrast to the conventional white-washed seaside aesthetic, the building is raw and weathered, its structural steel shell finished with an oil-based coating that permits a rust-like patination to develop without affecting structural performance.
A kiosk and cafeteria by day and a restaurant in the evening, the new café seats sixty.

Genexis Theater, Fusionopolis in Singapore, designed by ARUP and WOHA architects, was awarded design of the year for the President’s Design Award at the Singapore Design Week 09.
The design of the Genexis Theater rises to the challenge of an extremely difficult site, and succeeds through a cohesive amalgamation of highly technical solutions and innovation design. the result is a composite work of art and technology that transcends the site, and raises the bar for architectural and audio-visual
system design for a performing arts venue.
The theater’s feature include 560 adjustable seats that are retractable to create a thrust stage, and yet movable in multiple directions. the use of 400,000 timber beads line the internally curved walls of an ovoid space with an acoustic solution reducing the echo to minimum.
