The Capriccio Table by Jacopo Foggini

Italian designer Jacopo Foggini has created the Capriccio table for the manufacturer Edra.

From Edra:

The table base comprises two stainless-steel brush-finished metal tubes that have been buffed by hand. One forms the structural frame supporting the large, 15 mm thick glass tabletop. The other more decorative tube intersects with the table frame extending beyond it through two specially created slots. Like its musical namesake, the Capriccio steps outside the box; its design a flourish of composer inventive.

The Fold Chair by Marina Bautier

Belgian designer Marina Bautier has created the Fold chair.

From Marina Bautier:

Taking little space when folded away, Fold keeps nevertheless the comfort of a standard lounge chair. Its language is voluntary the one of an indoor seat, thanks to the choice of material, the generous proportions and the padded seat. Easily moved around it can also occasionally be used outside. Each element
contributes to the unity of the whole, from the lines and proportions of the cross structure, through the press studs allowing to fix the woollen pad, to the metal brackets which visually express the language of a folding chair.

VillAnn Residence by Wingårdh Architects

Wingårdh Architects designed the VillAnn Residence in Gothenburg, Sweden.

From the architects:

A straight house on an oblique plot cause the architecture and the unobtrusive landscaping to twist the axis. The parterres of the garden have also helped to allay the impression of the public highway traversing the lower part of the plot. This house, designed for a builder and his wife, reflects the self-consciousness of a couple who do not balk at letting their personality be expressed in their building.

Like the two individuals for whom the house is built, the two volumes look out to sea, one of them a little more prudently over the other one’s shoulder.

The pale concrete frame is followed through in a pale-stained, room-length solid Oregon pine for the flooring and fittings. The glass wall crossing the edge of the roof beams creates a seamless contact between building and terrace. This ends in a black concrete pool, the water of which is constantly flowing over the edge, becoming part of the building’s façade.
