Paley Park
Site: New York City
“Paley Park on East 53rd Street is just one of my favourite parks and an occasional date place,” suggests Christine Gachot, principal of Gachot Studios. “In what feels like a hidden escape from the fast paced metropolis, the park has a 20-foot water wall that is fantastically lit from down below at evening. It is this image that has frequented different challenge mood boards, like that of the Brooklyn Tower kitchens I not too long ago intended. The kitchen palette was impressed by the tones of Paley Park’s drinking water wall. Within the black frame of granite countertops and laminate cabinets, a polished bronze mirror backsplash references the reflectivity of the h2o, whilst etched bronze mirror recessed higher cabinets present a heat glow within the room.”
Jardin des Dunes et des Vents at the Parc de La Villette
Location: Paris
“My architecture studio created the pilgrimage to the Parc de La Villette when I was at the Rhode Island College of Style studying for a Bachelor of Architecture,” claims Krista Ninivaggi, principal and interior design leader at Woods Bagot. “We ended up there typically to stop by and sketch the [Bernard] Tschumi follies. That is when we found out a playground that went unsung in our architectural historical past classes. Twelve of us overgrown ‘kids’ snuck on to the playground and danced about for practically an hour. The playground is built of all varieties of different mechanisms to transfer your physique all around in enjoyment and unconventional methods. Truthfully, the creations resembled issues we have viewed in cartoons far more than actual lifetime. The space is pure delight. I think about that day and that place often.”
