Modern Dining: Nostalgic Inspiration

Posted: 27 Feb 2013 07:59 AM PST

This proudly presented dining collection begins with two perspectives by Aurélien Brion, synonymous with the promotion of innovative yet uncomplicated design. An apparently seamless, edgeless and endless line emanates from the Calla Lilly-topped table throughout this proposed Canadian space, subtly contrasting with the pseudo-industrial chairs and lofty pendant lighting. Experimentation with open space and natural light continues through the exclusion of window treatments and the incorporation of polished concrete underfoot, which, by reflecting light, does much to increase the size of the space.

In addition to the ever-present natural light these highly sophisticated and thoroughly modern dining visualizations are linked, albeit comparatively tenuously, by something else. Slowly developing within this collection is an ode to the past. Rounded pendant lighting in solid shades of grey and black and white, the preference for ceramic or resin-like accessories in primary red and yellow over glass, geometric shapes as exemplified by Yasmax, and heavily textured warm wooden walls befitting early Eichler, suggest inspiration with undeniably retro origins.

The ability of visualizers such as those showcased here, to harness both creativity and technology for the benefit of designers, architects and the industry, is unrivaled. While one recognizes a nostalgic quality within these handpicked images, one must also acknowledge that never before has digital design had such a significant hand in bringing interior concepts to life.

St.Tropez’s Luxury Villa, Peninsula 1

Posted: 26 Feb 2013 09:56 AM PST

Amending the time-honored adage, 'art imitates life,' to 'architecture imitates life,' begins to give one a sense of St. Tropez's luxury villa, 'Peninsula 1.' Much like the beautiful bodies that frequent the nearby Nikki Beach, Peninsula 1 sprawls in the Southern French sun and gazes beyond a blue horizon to soft Alpine Peaks.

Pendulum parasols, elemental, in canvas and wood stand sentinel, accented by regatta red and navy cushions in the palm-flanked outdoor lounge. The test of a true destination property (though seductive in their internal allure as they often are) is to encourage the resident to venture outside. Peninsula 1 is master of this and its domain with a retractable pool deck extending the terrace into the quintessentially formed, yet distinctly narrative, French gardens that meet each individual bedroom door.

Whimsy weaves its way from the silver elephant-head bedroom lamps to those wall-mounted, that mimic nautilus shells, from the small porthole window in the bathroom to the oversized industrial pendant lights that hang from the high ceilings of the open-plan lounge, from the plantation ceiling fans that crown most every room, to the organic screening material that shades the lantern-lit patio.

Peninsula 1's ultimate resident is a social butterfly who loves to entertain but relishes being cocooned when the mood generated by the property inevitably takes them.

The red accents move through the bedrooms and shedding their nautical chic, take on a warmth inspired by objects of the natural world and the sea itself. The red settles in the muted tranquility of a seafoam green color scheme offset by painted and exposed beams treated to appear not unlike driftwood. Red accents all but dissipate in each of the four bedroom's en-suites, the master's double beginning a new, altogether cooler palette in it's black and white floral prints, that is seen again in the minimalist kitchen and open internal spaces.
