I love the easy elegance of these bathrooms, designed for a consciously unfashionable and decidedly authentic mountain weekender in Brazil.  The architect, in his notes, makes a point of talking about the way materials were selected to highlight the contrast between natural and ‘technological’ finishes.

I like the approach of the architects of this gallery house in London who see their work as a moment in the life of the building.  Something to be used now and later reabsorbed, ‘like footprints on the landscape’.

A sublimely detailed yet robust new house in South London features face brickwork and brass hardware reminiscent of both the 1970′s and Victorian traditions.  I love the bare ceilings too, downlights banished in favour of strategically placed pendant lights, at least one of them in brass.

An Italian loft house full of really nice details and lighting that sets the mood.

Love made visible in the Veneto countryside…
