I used an Arizona flagstone for the pathways for several reasons; it has a smaller “footprint” than other flagstones as it comes from just one state over from California. I love that the pieces could be sourced in extra-large sizes, which were perfect for their large scale garden. This flagstone is also authentic to the property, as it would most likely be the same stone used at the existing 50’s ranch house during the time. I also chose Del Rio gravel and colored concrete in the same tone as the existing soil. Photo credit by Marie Buck Photography

design: Studio TOOP, 2009 location: Amersfoort, NL status: built in 2009, Tuinvreugd photo: Jolanthe Lalkens, 2010 A family friendly garden that, doesn't look like, well, a family garden. That was the assignment. Clean lines, a modern feel, not too much work, enough space for the kids to play and, oh yeah, a cage for the rabbit all in a space less than 50 m2. The new extension on the back of the house, catty cornered slightly with the original facade and the garden boundaries brought it's own challenges. This diagonal was used to make extra space for different functions but "straightened" in the experience of the inner square. Inside the aluminum pergola (coated in the same gray - ral 7016 - as the woodwork on the extension) house various functions: the rabbit cage, a water and sand table, the swing (steel rod in the aluminum for extra support) and a table where the kids can draw or play table football.

First own apartment In this interior design project, we focused on a 2-bedroom apartment. It was the client's first own apartment as she recently moved to Vienna. She desired a feminine and minimalist interior design that was far from boring. Since it was a rental apartment, certain elements were predetermined, and we aimed to create a design that could easily be taken along in case of a move. For example, we incorporated natural white acoustic panels as accents behind the sofa and TV, providing texture without introducing color into the space. We drew inspiration from the Pantone Color of the Year 2023, "Viva Magenta," for the accent color. Thus, we chose dining chairs and a pouf in shades from this color palette. The kitchenette remained unchanged, but we added a beautiful floral wallpaper as an accent to the backsplash. However, the highlight of the design is undoubtedly the living plant wall. It creates a green focal point in the middle of the room. We decided against adding more plants since our client is often away for days, and regular care couldn't be guaranteed. The living wall requires less maintenance and is more manageable in this regard. ---- Erste eigene Wohnung in Wien In diesem Einrichtungsprojekte ging es um eine 2-Zimmer-Wohnung. Es ist die erste eigene Wohnung der Kundin, die eben nach Wien gezogen ist. Sie wünschte sich ein feminines, schlichtes, jedoch nicht langweiliges Interiordesign. Da es sich um eine Mietwohnung handelt, waren einige Dinge gegeben und wir haben uns bemüht, alles so zu gestalten, dass es bei einem Umzug leicht mitgenommen werden kann. Wie z.B. die naturweißen Akustikpaneele, die als Akzent hinter dem Sofa sowie hinter dem TV angebracht wurden. Diese bieten Struktur, ohne Farbe in den Raum zu bringen. Bei der Akzentfarbe wollten wir uns nämlich von der Pantone-Farbe 2023 “Viva Magenta” inspirieren lassen und haben somit die Esszimmer-Stühle sowie den Pouf farblich aus dieser Palette gewählt. Die Küchenzeile blieb unverändert, jedoch haben wir der Rückwand mit einer hübschen Blüten-Tapete einen Akzent verliehen. Wahrscheinlich aber DAS Highlight ist die lebende Pflanzenwand. Diese bietet einen grünen Blickpunkt mitten im Raum. Auf weitere Pflanzen wurde verzichtet, da unsere Kunden oft tagelang nicht zuhause ist und die Pflege daher nicht garantiert wäre. Diese “Living wall” ist da weniger anspruchsvoll.
