Petra sent us Illu Stration´s CAPPELLETTI DELUXE flokati felt rug designed by Mary-Ann Williams. Says Petra, "Makes you want to roll in caramel. Compare with chocolate-photo, it reminds me of the Mars bar.".
+ 24H architecture's Dragspelhuset at Övre Gla @ Arkinetia. "This extension is to an original cabin from the 1800’s, located on the shore of the lake Övre Gla in the nature reserve Glaskogen in Sweden... The extension unfurls like a butterfly; during the winter it’s a cocoon, compact with a double skin against the cold. During the summer the building can change its form or, like a butterfly, unfold its wings for extra shelter during rainy days."
+ Architect Sebastián Irarrazaval's Casa Lira in Santiago, Chile @ Plataforma Arquitectura.
The house really looks like cocoon! would be surprised if I ran in to the house in the middle of nowhere.
