The Kith Café in Singapore by Hjgher

Sheer romantic! This is the main idea which appears in the head of one entering the Kith café in Singapore designed by Hjgher. The concept of this attractive café was inspired by a simple phrase from the Japanese film, “Be with you”. It can be paraphrased into “Would you drink a cup of coffee with me?” This sincere question has the power to turn strangers into kith and kin. There is nothing unnecessary here, this means no fancy lampshades, mass-manufactured furniture, or unnecessarily printed materials. The interior of this café has its own philosophy which attracts those who prefer retro and minimalist styles.

Contemporary Distrito Capital Hotel in Mexico

This unique hotel was created by Diametro Arquitectos with interiors by Joseph Dirand and combines modern and retro styles. Distrito Capital is situated in the Santa Fe, Mexico. Reception area decorated by vintage items brings you back to the 1960s. There are 17 rooms and 13 suites in the hotel, which are more like chic art spaces than overnight accommodations, full of vintage furnishings by Charlotte Perriand and other renowned 20th century designers. The hotel also has Enrique Olvera’s fifth-storey restaurant and bar with terrace and swimming-pool with sun loungers. And of course you can enjoy guzzling panoramic views of Mexico.
