This creative Elavate seating was designed by Marc Venot (France). At first it was a task from FLOWN to work on plane panel with windows which are used to cover the inside of the plane. Suddenly the idea was born to use this panel to create a new product. Because the most obvious thing is to sit next to the panel, it was decided to use it for seating. The design of the seat offers different compositions: it can be just single easy chair or sofa, or even composition for airport hall.

This beautiful villa created by the Korean architecture firm AND is located in a picturesque valley near Seoul (Korea). The house was built for a couple in 2010. The main distinctive feature of the building is that it is land-building. The place of structure presupposes that the house will face a wide road. To avoid this inconvenience and instead of making high walls towards the road, the architects decided to lift up the topography. Opposite south side opens up toward a small creek running along the side. Beautiful exterior spaces are gradually moving into the private living spaces, forming a unity. A little stream harmoniously proceeds under massive construction of the building. This contemporary home is a fraction of rural life in the city.
