| The living room of fictional characters, Harri and Astrid |
Now this is a great collaboration that I am loving! Located in Weil am Rhein, a German town close to the borders of Switzerland and France, is
VitraHaus, a building designed by Herzog and de Meuron, which displays the vast and amazing range of products from design company,
Vitra. The display spaces are regularly changed and the latest makeover is a reflection and celebration of Vitra's latest acquisition of
Artek. Bring in Ilse Crawford from
Studio Ilse into the fold and this is the great result. They have created a loft apartment for a creative fictional couple called Harri, a musician and Astrid, a set designer and their spaces are filled with aspirational pieces from the
Artek range, founded by Alvar Aalto and
Vitra. What a great way to display the furniture rather than behind glass as art pieces and clearly Harri and Astrid have done very well for themselves to have a stunning loft filled with design classics like this! Ah, one can dream - I'd move in in an instant!
