Is this combination of black & brown going well?

Is this black partition with fixed glass detail like an old detail designed good?

Let's share a few points and explore knowledge.

Dose Of Colour

French practice Atelier Sagitta has added a dose of colour to this previously characterless apartment in the Paris suburbs by creating an almost entirely green kitchen.

The apartment is set inside a recently-built residential development in the Clichy neighbourhood, in the north-west of the city.

Its owner – a young art director who works in the music industry – had bought the property as a largely empty shell, so approached local architects Atelier Sagitta to "bring a touch of originality" to the kitchen area which sits at the centre of the floor plan.

He specified that the architects should also incorporate a dining table in the kitchen in order to free up space in the adjacent living area.

With this in mind, the architects decided to paint the kitchen cabinetry, ceiling, and peripheral walls a bold shade of emerald green, mimicking the colour of the original laminate countertop that had been in the apartment upon purchase.

The architect had also been loosely influenced by an apartment they previously renovated in Paris' 17th arrondissement, which featured a forest green cooking area.

A pair of grooved oakwood volumes that contain extra cupboards have been inserted on one side of the kitchen, which were crafted by the client's long-term friend and cabinet maker Michel Mazué. These form an L-shaped layout, allowing room for a round table and two chairs – the stool seats have been completed in a slate grey to match the colour of the kitchen's floor tiles.

Atelier Sagitta are among a handful of practices and designers to create vibrant colour-block kitchens for clients – earlier this year Reform hacked standard IKEA cabinets to form an all-gold kitchen for the Copenhagen headquarters of fashion label Stine Goya.

London-based studio Henning Stummel also added an entirely orange cooking area to a house in Shephard's Bush, referencing its russet steel facade.

 Transformation

Australian practice Breathe Architecture has transformed the former headquarters of Paramount Pictures in Sydney into a boutique hotel with warm and tactile interiors.

The two buildings were restored and linked together with a two storey extension in a nine year project by local practice Fox Johnston.

Project Details 

Client's Name: Mr Mufaddal Kachwala

Category: Residential Project

Location: Nasik, Maharashtra

Principle Designer: Husain Kachwala

Project Concept 

As one enters the house, s/he is warmly greeted by a beautiful mixture of elements of nature, granite, laminate and fresh air - all adding to the aesthetic appeal of the house. In this project, AMi has completely balanced nature with modern yet contemporary interior. The use of minimal low height furniture helps to present a relatively free visual field hence creating a strong visual impact. An earthy palette is used to create a warm ambience.

         

The house sees a classy and modern double-door entry - the doors adorned in an exquisite veneer finish laminate. The outside door has meticulously carved out square holes ensuring perfectly free flow of air through the safety door and the French windows of the living room.

         

The photographs hold immense importance for the client, & the designer has done total justice, incorporating them within the larger picture. The client's son being a cricketer, he wanted his passion to be clearly reflected throughout the interiors. The cricket bats, therefore, form a unique artefact. The potted plants on the granite table top add a natural element to the space. The 5 frame set on the wall on the left creates a visual impression by their colours & decent placement.

The living room - the harbinger of classy elegance - is spacious and provides ample space for family interaction and allows it to be just the right place to sit back and relax. The Great Mosque of Imam-al-Haakim in Cairo, Egypt, perks up the wall, imparting a very earthy rustic feel to the room. The warm colours & the strategic use of lights to accentuate the decor elements ensure a contemporary feel of the place - making the house a home.

         

              

The modest showcase brimming with some antique artifacts, keeping the spirit of the religion alive & its integration with the son's cricket accolades is an eye-catching spot. The back panel of the TV unit is a cube of 16 squares, as if they are the pieces of a broken bark arranged vertically & horizontally; the granite shelf and the multiple drawers is a sleek example of efficient space planning.

          

  

AMi emphasises on quality & workmanship, & believes in making a design concept functional, economic, practical & aesthetically pleasing in synchronization with the environment. The firm is looking forward to engaging in designing & execution of residential, commercial & turnkey projects.
