'HouseWING' by AnLstudio + Heebon
AnLstudio has just completed its extraordinary project - "house WING" in Seoul (Korea). It is a renovated for an artist apartment, but the building is so unique that it would be better to consider it as individual work of art. The apartment is situated on the tenth floor of a historical landmark building. The space was visually divided by white framework into two clusters. This white construction has a form of airplane wing with strip light fixtures embedded into it. Lamps illuminate the entry, living room, library and study. The bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are located away from the public zone. [caption id="attachment_22812" align="aligncenter" width="620"] house wing[/caption]

Olafar Eliasson's Rainbow Panorama
Olafar Eliasson, artist and designer from Denmark, has realized into the life one of the brightest natural phenomenon. Rainbow – the most beautiful and fairy consequences of the rain – we can see now at the ARoS museum in Aarhus (Denmark). This installation called “Your rainbow panorama” is a tunnel which consists of colored glass panels. At night is lit by spotlights in the floor. We can imagine this tunnel like our way along the life. Hi-tech existence has thrown us off the colorful nature and this installation let us use this tunnel to recollect that life has different colors, not always bright, but always essential. The artist himself hoped to blur the limits between the art and what is a part of the museum.
