Antti Lovag

Le Palais Bulles (The Palace of Bubbles) by Antti Lovag near Cannes is Pierre Cardin's summer house. Begun in 1975 by Lovag, Pierre Cardin bought it in 1989 for 50 million French Francs. A collection of ferro-cement bubbles the interiors are furnished and decorated in a perfect '70s style."The circle is my symbol," says Pierre Cardin. "The sphere represents the creation of the world and the mother's womb. Holes, cones, breasts—I've always used them in my designs." A futurist architect meets a fashion designer known for his space age futuristic designs. OMG!

I wish I had that view!! (2nd to the last picture) I would love some palm trees in my "round" room too! Very cool post.

What a strange feeling it must be to live in a place with no hard lines. Gotta be tough to decorate too.

I first saw Antti Lovag's when I was doing my interior design degree. I was googling to find pictures of his work and up came these fabulous sites and images!
