The contemporary and stylish Abborrkroken villa was designed by John Robert Nilsson in a Municipality in Stockholm County, Sweden. It is located on a rocky plateau 75 feet above the sea occupying the territory of 2700 sq ft. The villa is the masterpiece of international architecture, built with inspiration. The main concept of this wonderful lake residence is simple shape and clean lines. Limestone, silvery white ash, matte white painted walls and ceilings characterize the house from the inside. At the same time the exterior is finished in dark colours. The contrast of the interior and the exterior is easily noticeable thanks to clean rooms with large glazed walls. Have a look.

In the World of Cocktails: Martini Chair by Zoran Svraka

Innovative ideas are always trendy, they mark out any interior. Designer Zoran Svraka who founded Svrakadesign, an agency for design and consulting, was inspired by the classic shape of the martini glass creating his unique flexible chair. This unusual Martini chair is screwless and glueless, the only components are its plywood seat, back, and base, and binding elastic string held firm by metal locks. The designer combines hard and soft elements together. It may seem that silting on such a chair for a long time is rather uncomfortable, but Martini chair allows comfortable sitting thanks to molded plywood connected with semi hard rubber string, which allows minimal flexibility in both seat and back supported part of chair. Enjoy your favorite drink sitting in the chair inspired by it!

Minimalist Prahran House by Nervegna Reed + PH Architects

The architect agency Nervegna Reed together with PH Architects created Prahnan House in Melbourne, Australia. It belongs to an Art Gallery director. The aim was to build the house on the narrow space of the city. There are two bedrooms and the additional study for the artists’ visits. Besides it also includes a private underground gallery. So it can be said that the house is divided into three levels where the entry is in the middle. The house has very interesting geometric shape. The white palette makes it light though maybe a bit cold. I guess some bright details can be suitable.

Villa Kanousan by Yuusuke Karasawa Architects: a House in Japan Inspired by the Cube

Have a look at this amazing house from Yuusuke Karasawa Architects in Japan. The design of villa Kanousan was inspired by the cube. Outside it looks unique because of the irregular shaped windows which provide the inhabitants with beautiful views of Kanouse. When you enter this strange house you will find rather unexpected interior design. Everything is entirely white, and this gives the feeling of serenity and tranquility. But every angle is different, dramatic and totally unexpected. Being simple outside the house has very complex structure outside. In spite of the unifying whiteness present inside, the exterior and the interior of this house are just very different. The interior seems to look like a stunning maze which you can see from different points.
