Boreal Halo…

…The Muzeul National de Arta Contemporana, located in Bucharest, Romania, is the temporary home of the Boreal Halo by French artist Vincent Leroy. Inside the Grand Palace, the Boreal Halo casts a mesmerizing, hypnotic trance over the room. The mass of the object creates an interesting contrast to the stark solidity of the marble floors, striking a tense balance that gives the structure a sense of lightness.

The halo makes visitors aware of the space they occupy…

the ring is in contrast with the fine appointments of the museum room, but remains harmonious in the space…

…as the halo moves, visitors will find themselves inside its space. via

…as the hypnotic halo rotates, visitors will find themselves inside and then outside its space.  Lovely…

Bathed in White Light…

…I wonder what artist Doug Wheeler’s lighting installation, titled D-N SF 12 PG VI, does to one’s senses…do your senses shut down…or go into full throttle? Stunning…

Doug Wheeler’s, D-N SF 12 PG VI, is installed for The Illusion of Light exhibition at Palazzo Grassi – an 18th century residence situated on Venice’s Grand Canal that now hosts contemporary art shows.

Spectacular…

…I must admit, I’m a jaw dropper…I wear my joy and delight on my sleeve.  Below are three spectacular spaces that make my jaw hit the floor!…

Koro House

Wooden slats add a sculptural ceiling and cast shadows like a sundial across the central living room of this hexagonal home, Koro, located in Toyota, Japan, by  Katsutoshi Sasaki + Associates.  The sculptural ceiling decoration is made from timber battens that line the rafters, creating an ever-changing pattern of light and shadow on the walls as the sun moves across the sky. Truly beautiful…instantly turns a home into a gallery, yes?

Dior’s Haute Couture Show

The Dior show, Paris, took place in a simple cylindrical white pavilion, located among foliage in the gardens of Musée Rodin. Designed by creative director, Raf Simons, white orchids with pink centres covered the walls. Stunning.

BIG Maze

BIG, the firm led by architect Bjarke Ingels, developed the form of this maze by combining styles of mazes throughout history, from ancient Greek labyrinths to European hedge mazes and modern American corn mazes. Brilliant! The BIG Maze opened to the public at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. on Friday and will remain in place until 1 September. It will be followed up by a wider exhibition of BIG’s work, which will open in January 2015.

It’s Raining, It’s Pouring…

…yes, it is raining in Chicago…The Pour, a raindrop chandelier installation, by Design Haus Liberty in New York City, is much more appealing…

More Pop than Rock…

…international creative firm, Hangar Design Group, describes itself…Hangar Design Group is more pop than rock. In a pop group what counts are not the isolated individuals but the name of the group. In the end, the result achieved is the group and not based on one inclination predominating over the others…refreshing, wouldn’t you say?

The aim of the agency is to gather under one name the various departments dedicated to communication, graphics, retail, industrial design and branding strategies…in other words, they do it all.  If you are so inclined, please visit Hangar Design Group website…inventive and innovated…

Floating..

….it has taken years of research and perfecting the process that has given Peter Gentenaar, a paper artist based in the Netherlands, a deep understanding of  paper-making. Gentennar explains, “at the basis of all my forms remains the nature of the pulp. Pulp making is my real art”.  He uses paper pulp and bamboo ribs to create his floating large-scale paper installations…I would love to wrap myself in these sensuous sculptures…and float from above like a Cirque du Soleil  artist…
