pieces of mies

Anyone who regularly reads this blog knows how much I love Van der Rohe's Barcelona Pavillion. This single family house, situated on an exclusive site close to the Hudson River, is one of the latest projects of the Madrid based Estudio Arquitectura Campo Baeza. It's a modern Mies.

Konstantin Grcic's first major showcase of his work in a U.S. museum shows a portfolio of Grcic and his firm konstantin grcic industrial design. The show will bring together more than 100 of his objects which include furniture, tableware and office accessories. I'm a big fan of "Chair One".

One of the most beautiful collections I've seen in a long time. Shanghai designer Zhili Liu has designed a collection of steel and aluminium tables with branched legs. Called Shrub, the collection includes a two-metre dining table, smaller round table and side table.
