Villa Dall’ava, Paris, France.


Villa Dall’ava by Rem Koolhaas and The Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) was completed way back in 1991. It was designed for a family of three with seperate ‘apartments’ one for the parents and one for their daughter. The client who wished for a swimming pool on their roof alse specifically requested full panoramic views (from their pool) of the surrounding landscape and city of Paris where the Villa is located.

The site is like a big room, with a boundary made of greenery, garden walls and slopes. It is composed of three parts: a sloping garden, the main volume of the villa, the street level garage with access in a cavity.

They are joined by the swimming pool which rests on the concrete structure encased by the glass pavilion.

    Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!|

felineship

Captain Feline employs anthropomorphism to blend pop culture with cats. The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters! Whilst the debut t-shirt illustrations by Dave are inspired by cult and classic movie characters, the team plan to increase the range to feature other pop culture icons as they grow and expand.
