Fresh and Modern Office Studio by Dom Arquitectura

3:28 AM | Labels: Office Design

Pablo Serrano from Dom Arquitectura shared with us his company’s latest project, Dom Studio. Here is the description we received: “The place previously used as a store was completely isolated from the outside. The first action we took, was to open the interior space, both the street and the garden outside, so we designed a completely open iron carpentry without studs, continuous glass, providing natural light throughout the space. All the iron is dark graphite gray painted, the same of the interior furnishings. Across the glass surface is placed inside a dark gray screens, to control the space privacy. As an Architecture studio, we have some details about the profession, the graphite color of the pencils, the prevailing white color like papers and the wall parallel. The inner wall of the room is very irregular. With the goal of unifying all these folds we proposed some horizontal lines that run through the wall, painted with the same gray that the continuous pavement. This allowed us to provide the wall of a plot in a gradient, starting with getting rid continuously and gradually breaking up until the roof.

We designed the Lamp that runs around the room, from some sections of iron flowing freely through space with convergent and divergent lines, covered with several sheets of folded parchment paper, as if they were the same studio plans. The result is an enlightened paper path through the roof. We propose an edge distribution, where 6 tables are based on the exterior side. In the same perimeter is placed a dark shelf, which runs through the space, we can put all the books and magazines worker’s hand and hide the strip turn providing the facilities for all jobs. The bathroom walls are painted in dark as an inverted room, the plan annotation dimensions remain drawn on the walls. We wanted to give this space a color point, and we loved the Campari lamp by Ingo Maurer, finally decided to reinterpret it with green Carlsberg bottles.”

Discovering Interior Design Ideas with an iPad

3:25 AM | Labels: Interior design

We have received a great post written by Amanda Johansson from TestFreaks.com, a site that offers product information and reviews which cover a variety of domains. The article is about Apple Ipad applications that can help you get inspired when decorating. Enjoy!

The Apple iPad is a popular computing device, and with millions of units in the field it is easy to imagine that it can be used for a variety of applications. The real strength to this versatility lies in the App Store, and with multiple apps for almost every occasion it is fairly simple to find something applicable.

I wanted to explore the possibility of using the iPad as a way to discover new interior ideas and designs, and so I headed over to the App Store to see what was available. As I suspected, there were many apps to help make the iPad a real tool in creating home design ideas. Let’s take a look at some of the best.

Houzz Interior Design Ideas

Houzz Interior Design Ideas has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch, and more. If you ask yourself why it has been so lauded, the fact that it has one of the largest home design idea databases on the net, might have something to do with it. With over 70,000 photos and 150,000 ideabooks, Houzz offers a handy way to browse ideas and include them in your own virtual idea book.

The app allows you to store idea photos locally on the device, making it simple to take the iPad onsite where a connection might not yet be present. The app can also put you in touch with local designers, architects, and contractors to help make your vision become a reality. And with a copy of your ideabook in hand, it makes it simple to show exactly what you have in mind.

Home Interior Ideas HD

Home Interiors Ideas HD was selected by Apple as a choice in “REWIND 2010: iPad Apps” and “NEW and NOTEWORTHY”. The app presents a selection of hundreds of interior designs in six major categories:

With such features as 10 Easy Pieces and Steal This Look, you may find your next project inspired by this interesting iPad app.

From the kitchen to the home cinema, the apps presented here offer many ways for you to explore what you like. Like they say, it pays to shop around, because the worse time to find that perfect design is when you put the finishing touches on the wrong choice.
