urban living spaces
What if, tumbling down from outer space, you fell, like Alice,
through a large, rectangular mirror, finding yourself on our own side
of the Universe: finally bound to planet Earth? These rooms reinvent
the familiar pattern of human life as we know it. Wood and soft fabrics
reconnect us to our need for a fireplace, a stripped down brick wall
offers a humble, solid comfort: this is a place we are instinctively drawn
to – a place easy to call home. Soft tones of sepia are outlined in solid
black, helping our vision to readjust to the intimate pleasures of
domesticity. Objects are at rest in the natural light that tumbles in from
the high windows, printing the shapes of the city onto the walls inside,
a shadow play representation of the world, at large. The house calmly
responds in an unobtrusive dialogue of inner and outer spaces, in which
each part politely waits for an answer.
