Scenic sumptuousness.


Chris Weylandts came up with the phrase.."South Africa: a country of scenic sumptuousness." Take a look at the Weylandts website, they've just done a revamp..and it looks really design-licious. In one of his articles he talks about artworks and how best to display them. For instance he suggests keeping the room's furniture and general colour palette quite understated, and choosing one or two pieces of remarkable artworks "that whisper in a foreign accent". An artwork doesn't need to be a painting on the wall, think out the box..find yourself a fantastic hanging pendant or floor lamp; even a chair...









                                    



Speaking of chairs... last year we were assigned to build a model of an iconic chair. Now I can't show you the model, but I can show you the concept boards for the chair. Chair: Miss Lacy chair by Philippe Starck.
