Toshiko Mori

Toshiko Mori started her architecture firm in New York City in 1981. "The firm's specific area of interest is in materials and fabrication methods for architecture and in constantly using both new and traditional materials and techniques for integration of architecture with light and landscape." I adore the fact that their architecture involves huge expanses of windows. Fabulously modern.

New York Apartment

I LOVE this apartment featured in New York Social Diary. It's the home of architect Adam Kushner, his wife and twins located in the West Village. Check out the doors pictured...they're vintage New York City subway doors!

Saunders Architecture

Ashley sent us a great link to Saunders Architecture a firm owned by Canadian Todd Saunders who has lived and worked in Norway since 1997. The work combines a Nordic design sensibility with environmental concerns. The summer house Ashley wants to share came about this way ...... "When we first started our firm, instead of looking for clients we went looking for plots, to build an experimental structure. Doing this, we could pursue our architectural vision in line with our convictions: uncompromising, original and respect for the landscape." Check out the other amazing projects on their website especially the Aurland Lookout. Thanks Ashley!
