Design Spirits have created an awesome interior of The Nautilus Project Restaurant in Singapore. First of all the restaurant has an advantageous location, it's situated on the fourth floor of the ION shopping center. The entrance of the restaurant is flanked on one side by an oyster bar and on the other side by displays of delectable dessert and trays of fresh crustaceans on ice. If you look at the photo of the plan,  you will see the form of the restaurant resembles a snail shell. All lines are smooth, rounded, without corners that creates a cozy welcoming atmosphere.

Beautiful Flower House by Mareines + Patalano Arquitetura

Leaf House is a mansion, designed by architects from Mareines + Patalano Arquitetura. This beautiful eco-friendly Brazilian flower was "planted" near Rio de Janeiro on a small beach with turquoise water. Leaf House is an ideal refuge from hot tropical climate. The roof in the form of giant petals protects from the sun, and plenty of verandas provide a perfect area for enjoying an ocean breeze. The complete absence of corridors not only promotes natural ventilation, but also creates welcoming atmosphere. The mansion is ideal for young and energetic people, as an open plan with interconnected rooms and spacious terraces give an opportunity to arrange parties and meetings with friends. True to say, it?s just an amazing masterpiece.
