Contemporary Kitchen Cabinet Designs from AlnoThe Paraty House by Marcio Kogan ArchitectsMarcio Kogan Architects have designed the Paraty House, located in Paraty, Brazil. The Paraty House by Marcio Kogan Architects Paraty House’s two reinforced concrete boxes, sit atop each other, connected on the mountainside of one of the islands of the colonial city of Paraty and Angra dos Reis (between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro), like two modern prisms between the large colossal stones of the Brazilian coast. The building projects outward from the mountain, almost onto the beach, in an 8m cantilever. The house finds balance in the topography of the land, creating an extensive open doorway and living space in the practically untouched nature. Paraty House features a furniture collection showcasing 20thcentury design, including works by many well-known artists. The residents arrive by boat. After stepping out onto the sand a metallic bridge positioned over a crystal-lined reflecting pool leads to a set of stairs connecting to the lower volume. This volume contains the living room, kitchen and service area. The continual internal area has a 27m span and huge glass windows to take advantage of the view of the sea. The same entrance stairs also lead to the upper volume that houses the bedrooms. In the front part of the house, retractile panels of eucalyptus sticks protect the bedrooms from the sun. The areas that face the mountain have small internal patios with zenithal lighting, and use exposed reinforced concrete, which grants a striking texture to the walls. The entire top of the house is covered with terraces, used as observation decks for the residents, and as a garden for sculptures, medicinal plants and edible herbs.

Heron Lounge Chair by Charles WilsonThe designer, Charles Wilson was inspired to create the Heron lounge chair after working on a commission for NSW Government House, a Gothic Revival building in Sydney, Australia. “I was photographing the interior spaces and all these curvaceous Victorian lounge chairs and wondered how I could re-interpret these organic shapes in a modern way” The side profile is reminiscent of a large bird coming to land; the graceful, streamlined form of the body sits on a cantilevered axis that seems to flow directly into the star base. Heron, by Charles Wilson, for Woodmark

Sunset Cabin in Canada by Taylor Smyth ArchitectsTo me, this cabin is like 275-square feet of relaxation, peace, and quiet. The home is on the shores of Lake Simcoe and features just one room. The home owners’ main home was just up the hill, but they preferred a small, peaceful sleeping cabin where they could take advantage of the beautiful sunsets. Sounds like a dream! The cabin also features a green roof, wood-burning stove, and horizontal cedar slats with openings that let in the beautiful light.
