5 TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS THAT DESIGNERS ADORE Top interior designers share their tips for working with historic building details.

Balance is key for French-born Robert Couturier, as well. He says, “I start with the space itself and try to make the strong architectural detail not be the only important element, so the space does not feel lopsided. As with everything in design, and maybe in life, it all boils down to balance!” In a regal London townhouse, he incorporated patterned tiles and textural wall coverings to offset the detailed moulding, coffered ceilings and stunning archways.

For a client who wanted an interior evocative of Old Hollywood glamour, Los Angeles–based Philip Nimmo started with the elliptical shape of this space, which was to become the ladies’ powder room, and then came the skylight.

“Having designed an oval room, I custom-designed an oval skylight that would filter in natural light and create the perfect ambience for applying beauty products.”

O equilíbrio também é fundamental para o francês Robert Couturier.

Ele diz: “Eu começo com o espaço em si e tento fazer com que os fortes detalhes arquitetônicos não sejam o único elemento importante, de modo que o espaço não pareça desequilibrado. Tal como acontece com tudo no design, e talvez na vida, tudo se resume ao equilíbrio! ”Em uma casa urbana de Londres, ele incorporou telhas padronizadas e revestimentos de parede textural para compensar a moldagem detalhada, tetos em caixotões e arcadas impressionantes. ”Em uma casa urbana de Londres, ele incorporou telhas padronizadas e revestimentos de parede textural para compensar a moldagem detalhada, tetos em caixotões e arcadas.

Para um cliente que queria um evocativo interior do glamour do Velho Hollywood, Philip Nimmo, de Los Angeles, começou com a forma elíptica desse espaço, que se tornaria o banheiro feminino, e então veio a clarabóia.Tendo projetado uma sala oval, projetei uma clarabóia oval que projetava uma luz natural e criava o ambiente perfeito para aplicar produtos de beleza.”Para um cliente que queria um evocativo interior do glamour do Velho Hollywood, Philip Nimmo, de Los Angeles, começou com a forma elíptica desse espaço, que se tornaria o banheiro feminino, e então veio a clarabóia.Tendo projetado uma sala oval, projetei uma clarabóia oval que projetava uma luz natural.

Living room of an Upper East Side duplex by Timothy Whealon Inc. Photo Max Kim-Bee

Repetitive, geometric motifs in wood flooring can ground a room while tying together contemporary artworks into a historic setting, as evidenced in this Upper East Side duplex chock full of antiques and modern art. About the custom design, Timothy Whealon says, “I wanted to ground the room so I had the floor hand stenciled in a design that was modern but that harkened back to the Renaissance. The Candida Höfer photograph of Trinity Library creates an illusion of a room beyond the room, which further expands the otherwise narrow space design that was.”

Not much contends with a fireplace in its capacity to anchor a room and to define an aesthetic. The decision to incorporate a period fireplace rather than commissioning a sleek, contemporary one can make or break a space. The master bedroom of this 1930s Los Angeles property restored by Paris-based JeanLouis Deniot illustrates this point. The designer says about his approach, “I always organize rooms around fireplaces, so it is very crucial to find the right one with the right style, right condition and right measurements.

The master bedroom of this 1930s Los ”

Motivos repetitivos e geométricos em pisos de madeira podem fundir uma sala e, ao mesmo tempo, unir obras de arte contemporâneas em um cenário histórico, como evidenciado neste calçadão do Upper East Side repleto de antiguidades e arte moderna.

Sobre o design personalizado, Timothy Whealon diz: “Eu queria aterrar a sala, então eu tinha a mão no chão estampada em um design que era moderno, mas que remetia ao Renascimento. A fotografia de Candida Höfer da Trinity Library cria uma ilusão de uma sala além da sala, que expande ainda mais o espaço, que de outra forma seria estreito. ”A fotografia de Candida Höfer da Trinity Library cria uma ilusão de uma sala além da sala, que expande ainda mais o espaço, que de outra forma seria estreito. ” ilusão de uma sala

Não há muito com uma lareira em sua capacidade de ancorar uma sala e definir uma estética. A decisão de incorporar uma lareira de período ao invés de encomendar uma elegante e contemporânea pode fazer ou quebrar um espaço. O quarto principal desta propriedade de Los Angeles da década de 1930, restaurada por Jean-Louis Deniot, com sede em Paris, ilustra esse ponto. O designer diz sobre sua abordagem: “Eu sempre organizo quartos em torno de lareiras, por isso é muito importante encontrar o caminho certo com o estilo certo, condição correta e medidas corretas”. “Eu sempre organizo quartos em torno de lareiras, por isso é muito importante encontrar o caminho certo com o estilo certo, condição correta e medidas corretas”. condição condição correta e medidas corretas”.

Whether you’re rearranging the furniture in your living room or embarking on a major interior upgrade, architectural details can have a serious impact on the moves you make in a space.

Não importa se você está reorganizando a mobília em sua sala de estar ou em barcando em uma grande reforma interna, os detalhes arquitetônicos podem ter um impacto sério nos movimentos que você faz em um espaço.

INTERVIEW WITH LAURENT BLANC, FOUNDER OF THE GOOD LIFE

We had already talked about The Good Life magazine in the article: review of the male paper press . We call it the most balanced male magazine. You will see that it is as much for their business model.

I am Laurent Blanc and I am founder of the magazines "Idéat" and "The Good Life". "Ideate", I founded the magazine 15 years ago. It's a design magazine in fact, architecture. And "The Good Life" which is a men's lifestyle magazine that I founded two and a half years ago.

Can you present us "The Good Life"?

"The Good Life" is a hybrid magazine that is quite fashionable today, hybridity. We see hybrid cars, we see hybrid cameras. Even people are hybrids now. So he mixes two genres that normally do not mix in magazines, global economic news, global. So, it speaks very, very little about France and a lot of the economic world that is moving forward and with lifestyle. So mix of fashion but also things a bit masculine, cars, boats, but also music and even dance, contemporary art. And all that is mixed almost imperceptibly. It is also hybrid on the form and hybrid in the background. We have seen, but it is also hybrid on the form and therefore hybrid between book and magazine.

In fact, it has the format of a book, the paper of the book but the contents of a magazine. There is a lot of text like in a book with small pictures. While in magazines, it's rather big pictures and not a lot of text. And so, it is this mix that creates its originality. In the end, it's almost an object.

Who is The Good Life for?

This magazine is not only interested in people over 50 who have a lot of money, but also interest a lot of young people. In particular, we are very, very well represented in business schools, and that, I think it's super reassuring. So, what makes age ranges go from student-type business school to more than 50 years old who is settled in life.

And this mixture seems to live well. It’s quite interesting.

What do you think of the evolution from paper to digital?

Rather than putting the digital to paper, it turns out that the readers of “The Good Life” are ultra connec l to paper, it turns out that the readers of “The Good Life” are ultra conneceaders of “The Good Life” eaders

ted. Much more than average. So, that means things are more complicated. We tend to pose the digital and the paper. And in fact, no, since our readers are ultra connected. It can live together. It is not because we read "The Good Life" in paper on weekends because there is a touching side of touching this paper .... Anyway, nothing will replace the pleasure of getting into a good chair on Saturday with a small cup of coffee and reading his favorite magazine. There is a sensitive side. That does not prevent that, obviously, five minutes right after or before, one can go on his tablet or on the net to seek information. Besides, it is quite complementary since on "The Good Life", we have applications including addresses of hotels and restaurants around the world.

So everything is very complementary. We have an application called "The Good Spots" which can be consulted, which is a free application and in which we can if you want to leave - I do not know me - in Buenos Aires for example. You type Buenos Aires and we will give you our three best hotels in Buenos Aires. You can choose your room in the hotel. The restaurants in which you can go with a setting that we like, and then the 3 or 4 important museums there. And once you are in Buenos Aires, there is even a geo-location system for GPS to go to the restaurant, guided by a tablet.

In the evolution from paper to digital, are there economic models to follow?

The problem for all these publishers who tend to bet on digital is that digital advertising is selling by the kilo now. So, it's very complicated to make the sites profitable today. You have to invest a lot to make these sites beautiful. And at the same time, advertising is now selling less and less expensive because the buyers of these ads or the agencies that buy the ads for the advertisers are very attentive to the number of visitors and so after, we come to buy advertising at kilo and profitability is very hard to get in fact. While for the press, it's true that buying advertising in a magazine, it's still quite expensive. And then, we do not just buy a broadcast, a number of readers. We also buy the quality of a magazine, the quality of its paper, its environment, the fact that it is glossy, luxurious and we buy a little all that. That's why the press advertising sales rates are still pretty well preserved. So, the economic model is more interesting on the press than on the Internet.

Is there an alternative to selling advertising space?

That's what we do with the concept. That's it I think it's a way for a paper publisher. I am a small paper publisher.

And for a small paper publisher, I think the smart solution to go on the net because it's obvious that you have to go there, you have to be there, it’s not going to go by putting its paper content for free on the net, but rather to value its brand and go on the net to do business. For example, for two and a half, three years, we have made “The Good Life” almost a brand because we sell a universe in fact. And that, it allowed us to launch an e-commerce site which proposes to a certain number of people who go on the site to find this universe and to buy a part of this universe by buying a model of boat, a shirt ,th century.

So, they are happy to find this universe in fact. However, So, they are happy to find this universe in fact. However,

it has nothing to do with the magazine. It is not because we present an object in the magazine that we will be able to buy it on the e-shop. It's the same universe but there is no correlation. The magazine remains a magazine, it's journalism. The e-shop remains an e-shop.

It's trade. There is a wall in between. There will be no bridge between the e-shop and the magazine.

What is the future of "The Good Life" ?

So if the e-commerce site works, we saw that with "The Good", it starts to make a mark since it works well. In two or three years, we will try to open a physical shop in Paris to materialize the concept. So, a small shop but in which we will return a little all the universe which is described in the site of e-commerce. And then maybe one day we'll have a restaurant called "The Good Kitchen". But when we go back to a shop called "The Good Concept Store" or a restaurant called "The Good Kitchen", we will return to the world of the magazine.

It starts to work in a global way because the magazine "The Good Life" just released in Chinese version a fortnight ago in Shanghai, and we are in talks to sell a license in Korea and Germany too. So, it's a concept that comes out internationally.

Can you present us “The Good Life”?

“The Good Life” is a hybrid magazine that is quite fashionable today, hybridity. We see hybrid cars, we see hybrid cameras. Even people are hybrids now. So he mixes two genres that normally do not mix in magazines, global economic news, global. So, it speaks very, very little about France and a lot of the economic world that is moving forward and with lifestyle.

It is also hybrid on the form and hybrid in the background. We have seen, but it is also hybrid on the form and therefore hybrid between bookSo, they are happy to find this universe.

Inside Karl Lagerfeld’s Parisian Suites at Hôtel de Crillon

BY BOCA DO LOBO

Karl Lagerfeld, the eccentric German designer who blended fashion and art, who promoted white hair, black sunglasses and 19th-century-style shirt collars, and simultaneously was creative director of French (Chanel), Italian (Fendi) and other international fashion labels, passed away on the past February 19th, 2019.

Karl Lagerfeld, o excêntrico designer alemão que misturou moda e arte, que promoveu cabelos brancos, óculos de sol pretos e colares de camisa do século 19, e simultaneamente foi diretor criativo da francesa (Chanel), italiana (Fendi) e outras grifes internacionais de moda faleceu no passado 19 de fevereiro de 2019.

Today, Boca do Lobo Blog will present you with the extraordinary Parisian suites, Les Grands Appartements, at the Hôtel de Crillon, one of the latest interior design projects of Karl Lagerfeld.

Hoje, o Blog Boca do Lobo apresenta as extraordinárias suítes parisienses Les Grands Appartements, no Hôtel de Crillon, um dos mais recentes projetos de design de interiores de Karl Lagerfeld.

After a four-year renovation, Hôtel de Crillon reopened in 2017, unveiling a brilliant transformation that has made it one of the most venerable addresses in Paris. And while there are several admirable accommodations, from Suite Marie-Antoinette swathed in blush hues to Suite Bernstein with its 1,205-square-foot terrace, it’s the two Karl Lagerfeld–designed Les Grands Appartements that are the property’s statements. Les Grands Appartements that are the property’s statements. Les Grands Appartements.

Depois de uma renovação de quatro anos, o Hôtel de Crillon reabriu em 2017, revelando uma transformação brilhante que fez dele um dos endereços mais veneráveis​​ de Paris. E, embora haja várias acomodações admiráveis, desde a Suíte Marie-Antoinette envolta em tons de vermelho até a Suíte Bernstein, com seu terraço de 80 metros quadrados, são os Les Grands Appartements, projetados por Karl Lagerfeld, que são as declarações da propriedade. Lagerfeld, que são as declarações Lagerfeld,

T he legendar y icon had an affinity for 18th-century antiques and even purchased a model of the Hôtel de Crillon at a Christie’s auction several decades ago. With his Appartements, he created one of the most lavish quarters in the French capital.

O lendário ícone tinha uma afinidade por antiguidades do século XVIII e até mesmo comprou um modelo do Hôtel de Crillon em um leilão da Christie’s há várias décadas.

Com seus apartamentos, ele criou um dos bairros mais luxuosos da capital francesa.

Textured grey walls in the living room took nine layers of paint to create a ridged effect. The chandeliers all come from the Kaiser’s personal collection, one of which even features crystals that were hand-selected by the man himself. Cherub-adorned red marble fountains from the property’s original courtyard now serve as sinks in the powder rooms. The large-format photographs found throughout the chambers are a result of Lagerfeld’s time behind a lens. And with a touch of a button, a bookshelf in the curated library reveals the dreamiest of walk-in closets.

Paredes cinzentas texturizadas na sala de estar pegaram nove camadas de tinta para criar um efeito sulcado. Os candelabros são todos da coleção pessoal da Kaiser, um dos quais possui até cristais que foram selecionados à mão pelo próprio homem.

As fontes de mármore vermelhas decoradas com querubins do pátio original da propriedade servem agora como pias nas salas de pó. As fotografias de grande formato encontradas em todas as câmaras são resultado do tempo de Lagerfeld atrás de uma lente. E com um toque de um botão, uma estante de livros na biblioteca curada revela o mais antigo dos closets.

Discover The Parisian Apartment Of Hervé Van der Straeten

BY BOCA DO LOBO

When furniture designer Hervé Van der Straeten and his husband, Bruno Frisoni, decided to sell their loft-like apartment in Paris’s 12th arrondissement, they set out looking for something different. What they found was a 1,750-square-foot one-bedroom apartment on the Île Saint-Louis, right in the center of the city.

The pair did very little work in the Île Saint-Louis apartment. They simply repainted the walls, which were formerly what Van der Straeten describes as a “cold white,” mostly substituting neutral tones like cream, a pale aqua green and a pinkish beige.

Not surprisingly, Van der Straeten filled the interiors largely with his own creations. These include his angular, origami-like Réaction mirror, in the library; his Chinese-inspired Shanghai armchairs, in the living room; and, in the dining room, his Perturbation table, whose base is composed of stainless-steel cubes stacked in higgledy-piggledy fashion.

Van der Straeten and Frisoni’s approach to art is similarly eclectic. Works in the Île Saint-Louis apartment range from a 16th-century Flemish canvas depicting Venus and the Four Seasons to one of Massimo Vitali’s iconic beach photos and a rock-like sculpture in metal by Pierre Malphettes.

Quando o designer de móveis Hervé Van der Straeten e seu marido, Bruno Frisoni, decidiram vender seu apartamento tipo loft no 12º arrondissement de Paris, eles partiram em busca de algo diferente. O que eles descobriram foi um apartamento de um quarto e pouco mais de meio metro na Île Saint-Louis, bem no centro da cidade.

A dupla fez muito pouco trabalho no apartamento da Île Saint-Louis. Eles simplesmente repintaram as paredes, que antes eram o que Van der Straeten descreve como um “branco frio”, substituindo principalmente tons neutros como creme, um verde-claro-pálido e um bege rosado.

Não surpreendentemente, Van der Straeten preencheu os interiores em grande parte com suas próprias criações. Estes incluem seu espelho Réaction angular, semelhante a origami, na biblioteca; suas poltronas de Xangai de inspiração chinesa, na sala de estar; e, na sala de jantar, sua mesa Perturbation, cuja base é composta de cubos de aço inoxidável empilhados de uma forma desleixada.

A abordagem de Van der Straeten e Frisoni para a arte é similarmente eclética. As obras do apartamento na Île Saint-Louis variam de uma tela flamenga do século XVI, representando Vênus e as Quatro Estações, até uma das icônicas fotos de praia de Massimo Vitali e uma escultura de metal em pedra de Pierre Malphettes. “Geralmente compramos as coisas muito rapidamente e sem arrependimentos”,

In the dining room, 18th-centurystyle chairs surround Van der Straeten’s Perturbation table, to the left of which sits a Pierre Malphettes sculpture titled Un Rocher.

200-year-old Brick House Renovated by American Architect Robert Gurney

BY BOCA DO LOBO

American architect Robert Gurney sought to open up views and balance old and new while renovating a four-story historic dwelling in the Georgetown area of the US capital. Alongside with interior designers Sybille Schneider, Leroy Street Studio, this has become a major design project that combines a modern interior with a historical building.

The project, called Renovation on Cox’s Row, entailed the refurbishment of a slender brick dwelling built between 1805 and 1829 by Colonel John Cox, who later served as Georgetown’s mayor Set back from the street, the residence is composed of three distinct volumes: a four-storey main block in the front, a two-storey block in the centre, and a rear volume that is split between one and two storeys

The renovation aimed to honor the past while updating the building for modern and contemporary use. It was designed for a couple with two children and for that reason, it had to be practical and clean through modern furniture and an eclectic look.While changes to the exterior were fairly minimal, the interior has become a modern space, with minimal design and a stunning atmosphere. The windows were added or enlarged, and wooden frames were replaced with steel ones. A protruding glass skylight, which is not visible from the street, was added to the roof in order to bring natural light deepinto the home.In the original design, the front and back portions were physically and visually disconnected, and the rear rooms were darkvisually disconnected, and the rear rooms were dark

Designers Christian Ducker and Tyeth Gundry of London-based Gundry + Ducker adopted an encouraging, pastel pink tone for the 34 squaremeter, low-ceiling, windowless area for North Audley Cantine.The designers used rounded forms, rich-blue velvet seating booths, light marble table covers, bright-blue flooring, see-through walls, mirrors and bespoke lighting.

It’s through the convergence between architecture and arts that Corpo Atelier gives shape to contemporary projects featuring a seductive and vibrant geometry. Based in the Algarve, the studio founded by Filipe Paixão presently seeks “to reinterpret the very rich and distinctive heritage” of this place, by exploring artistic and architectural possibilities.

What motivated you to establish the studio?

At the time, we realised that some of our ideas coincided in terms of the practice of architecture and its possibilities, particularly regarding artistic practise. There were a group of initial projects that allowed us to test these kinds of principles and, since then, we’ve focussed on continuing this practise. us to test these kinds of us to test What are the main considerations you bear in mind when executing projects in the Algarve?

There is a quite distinctive and rich cultural heritage in the Algarve territory which, unfortunately, because of mass tourism and real estate speculation has been consistently distorted. As an architectural practise, we always seek to discover and reinterpret this heritage, not from a nostalgic perspective but, rather, from a contemporary perspective, integrating it into the logic of each project.

How do you define the studio’s identity?

We are an architecture and art studio focussed on exploring and expanding architectural elements. This is where the studio’s name – Corpo – comes from.This is where the studio’s name – Corpo – comes from.

Regarding your recent project Architectural (dis) Order, what were the client’s main requirements and in what way were they met?

The project Architectural (dis)Order is special since the client and the architect are the same person. It’s my apartment and, for that reason, there was a greater degree of freedom, we approached the challenge as a design halfway between sculpture and furniture creation, placing threeces within a neutral space, which condition and organise the way the apartment is inhabited.

pieces within a neutral space, which condition and organise the way the apartment is inhabited. Up until now, the architect/client continues to feel satisfied.

What are your main influences?

In general, they are quite varied and changeable. We are particularly interested in a more sculptural interpretation of the composition of spaces and, so, artists such as Richard Serra, Gordon Matta Clark and Eduardo Chillida are often almost directly ‘quoted’ in our projects. In the field of architecture, there are some fundamental figures who we grew with as architects, such as Álvaro Siza, Peter Markli, Julian Laampens, among others.

Art is also one of your main points of interest. Is there an inherent relationship between art and architecture?

We are interested in art as a source of ideas that we then seek to transpose to the field of architecture, to the architecture itself but, probably above all, to the very conception of this architecture. When integrating this more artistic approach, we seek to find different ways of designing buildings because we believe that by using different tools we will inevitably achieve different outcomes that are impossible to predict before this act of experimentation. Thus, our artistic practice has been essentially expressed through drawings and scale models.
