Queensland Gallery of Modern Art by Architectus

This Queensland Gallery of Modern Art building is designed by Architectus which has specialist expertise in education, public buildings, commercial, industrial, residential, aviation and transport, sustainable design, retail and hotels. This gallery of modern art building features 25.635 square meter area in a lightweight structure concept, open riverside pavilion containing two major levels of exhibition space, two cinemas, education facilities, a restaurant and boardwalk café. It was completed in 2006 and organized into flexible, adaptive spaces which can house changing programs and exhibitions.

The urban design concept for the Gallery acknowledges the city grid and axis of Tank Street to the historic windmill, whilst maintaining the river connection for the west end district. The new Gallery is the largest cultural project to be undertaken in Queensland’s recent history. The resulting building stands as a landmark against Brisbane’s skyline. The new building more than doubles the Queensland Art Gallery’s size, and enhances Brisbane as a world city.

Environmentally, the generous roof solves around 90% of the issues facing the Gallery by shading the walls at critical times of the day. The Gallery will focus on modern and contemporary Australian and international art, indigenous Australian art, and the art of the Asia-Pacific region.

Designed and manufactured by steaming wood processing technique in order to bend the wood while being steamed, produces such a good wooden chair which is sustainable in design. This modern chair uses thin and small amount of wood where cause of the material itself give the ability of elasticity and durability. This modern wooden chair is designed by Korean designer. His name is Dohoon Kim, who has created a series of steam bentwood chairs.

Here’s more on the the making of this chair from Dohoon himself:

“Firstly the technique called ‘bending wood’ is pretty well known for and has been used in great examples such as Thonet’s first steam-bent beech cafe chair and Alvar Aalto’s laminated berch stool. These examples have become essential works in modern design history. While there are many more versions of this technique developed for various purposes, I’m working on designing and making objects based on ‘Steam bent-wood’ and ‘laminated bent-wood’ skills. Among the rest, the ‘Steam bentwood chair’ that is one of my latest works shows its organically structured form made with steam bent-wood technique”

I’m loving the smooth work of Dohoon and the details on how each pieces of wood connecting through each other. Dohoon stated also that this is a light chair and very strong. Looking for twist chair? Then you need to get yourself this modern steam bentwood chairs!

Elegant Minimalist Bench by Dario Antonioni

I almost misjudge this wood bench by a low wooden table. The Nautural Series Wood Bench was designed by Dario Antonioni. This minimalist seat really has the power of adding functionality in a subtle manner. The minimalist approach is just so good that you can place this bench just about anywhere around your house. Here is a short description from the designer: The Natural series is exactly what it claims to be. Composed of a o solid wood core with a trace of aluminum, these benches are Mother Nature’s way of combining organic material with modern design. Simple and beautiful are two words which are best to describe this chair. It adds elegance to any kind of room. The curve and simple form of this wood makes it an elegant minimalism. No one would have ever thought that such simple bench design like this can turn into something elegant.
