Image © Marlena Kudlicka.‘Unprotected 0 (horizontal)’ Installation by Marlena Kudlicka // The work of Marlena Kudlicka follows the tradition of constructivist art. Her sculptures, born in the mechanics of language, are deeply connected with the construction process. She explores the intrinsic relationship between error and its derivatives, determines how present they are in the sculpture to be made, and then creates what she calls “recipes”.

Images © Nissa Kinjalina.Living Light by Nissa Kinzhalina // Kazakhstan-based designer Nissa Kinjalina has created a lamp that appears as a diaphanous container, into which the light was poured. The light can be picked up and carried around “like a handbag”. Hmmm… I’m Not sure I’d leave the house with it.
Images © Vibia.‘Wireflow’ by Arik Levy for Vibia // ‘Wireflow’ explores geometries in two and three dimensions through a series of pendant lighting fixtures which are composed of simple elements, whereby from certain angles they appear flat, like a line drawing suspended in the air. Designed by Arik Levy, the structures are formed by thin rods which end with LED terminals for illumination, continuing the visual fluidity of the lines. Produced by spanish company VIBIA, ‘Wireflow’ explores presence and absence, transparency and luminosity, light and fluidity.
Photograph by Gibbs Farm.‘Horizons’ Installation by Neil Dawson at Gibbs Farm // Neil Dawson’s ‘Horizons’ installation is one of the earliest sculptures to be commissioned for the Gibbs Farm in New Zealand. Sitting on one of the highest points on the property it is also one of the few works that can be seen from the road. This seems fitting, given the way the tromp l’oeil character of the work is suggestive of a giant piece of corrugated iron that might have blown in from a collapsed water tank on some distant farm.
图片 © Daici Ano.Photographer’s Weekend House by Shin Ohori/ General Design // The slender structural elements of this elegant house are highlighted in black, creating a dramatic overall effect. In contrast to a simple external volume of rough concrete, an internal space enclosed with walls is designed to show the depth of space as well as interplay of light and shadow.

Image courtesy of Jan Plecháč.‘Icons’ by Jan Plecháč // Jan Plecháč reinterpreted iconic chairs by highlighting their contours as a sort of elegant wire sketch, in a graphic-design-meets-furniture reinterpretation. Related post: SaloneSatellite | Milan 2011.
图片 © Kyle Yu.‘Wireframe Furniture’ by NOIZ Architects // The ‘Wireframe collection’ by Noiz Architects consists of a series of ‘digitalised’ furniture and objects designed for the lobby of the Museum of National Taipei University of Education. Created from 3mm black steel rods, bent and welded according to their templates. These pieces are deliberately constructed to resemble raw outlines in three-dimensional computer modelling software to develop a sense of illusion against reality.
Photo © Ella Bates-Hermans.Eclipse Speaker by Jack Huston // Curves created by weight versus straight structural lines is the idea young designer Jack Huston explores with his speaker design titled Eclipse. It looks a bit like a grasshopper or a mantis, no?
Photo © Molteni & C.Grado° (Display Cabinets) by Ron Gillard for Molteni & C // Ron Gilad’s collection of furniture, Grado°, underlines the designer’s interest in basic geometric shapes. Shown here are the 60°/ Console and 35°/ Tavolino “open box” table, of which we can only see the contours. Elements of pure light that appear to suggest hidden treasures.
图片 © Re-public.Permanent Daylight by Romeo Vidner & Jonas Liverod // ‘Permanent Daylight’ is designed in the format of a broadsheet newspaper to highlight a selection of Liverod’s art pieces. The packaging and associated promotional material for the release event was specifically designed to accompany the publication. The three separate elements are linked cohesively with the solid black line, which frames and connects the physical elements of the artwork.

Image © STUDIO 14 / Mogg.‘Antologia’ Bookshelf by Studio 14 for Mogg // ‘Antologia’ is a modular wall bookshelf designed by STUDIO 14 for Italian furniture company Mogg. Made in iron, each module may be fitted as desired to create different geometries. Drawing their inspiration from The Matrix and Tron: Legacy motion pictures, the designers wanted to create some kind of 3-D handwriting on the wall emphasised by horizontal and vertical lines.
Images © Seung Jun Jong.‘Chiuet Table’ by Seung Jun Jong // Created by South Korean designer Seung Jun Jeong, ‘Chiuet Table’ is an extremely skinny steel table that looks like a 2D stick drawing when viewed from certain angles. The minimal design piece consists of a thin surface supported by three legs spread out like a camera tripod.
摄影 @ Luis Diaz Diaz.LVDV by i.s.m.architecten // LVDV is a renovation project by Belgian architecture practice i.s.m.architecten. The main goal of the renovation was to adapt the existing apartment to its new inhabitant. The existing structural wall that runs through the two compartments forms the backbone of the plan. All the barriers added are soft ones: glass doors, sliding doors and a pivoting cupboard, creating different degrees of transparency. Through the use of colour, the punctures of this structuring wall are articulated but only reveal themselves when a door is opened or a pivoting door is turned.
摄影 @ Amit Geron.ZBL House by Paritzki & Liani Architects // Israeli studio Paritzki & Liani Architects has squeezed a house with an exposed brickwork interior into the space between two existing properties in Tel Aviv. Folded steel stair and metal mesh screens qualify this project for the Thin Black Lines hall of fame. 转载自:Yellowtrace- 语言:English
