O House — Lake Lucerne, 2007
Circles, repeated until they become the architecture.
No façade in the traditional sense.
Just openings, rhythm, and precision.
And then a Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona in yellow.
Same logic.
Different scale.
Toilet paper, red heels, and a 1965 Pipistrello lamp.
Some images just have the right amount of chaos.
Designed by Gae Aulenti for Martinelli Luce, the Pipistrello became one of the defining pieces of the Italian Space Age movement — and somehow still looks futuristic 60 years later.
Still cool. Still weird. Still iconic.
Western Electric Sculptura Telephone — USA, c. 1970s
(“Donut Phone”)
Part of AT&T’s Design Line series, this model became an icon of space-age domestic design.
A circular, molded plastic body with the keypad placed at its center — reducing the object to a single continuous gesture.
Produced in both rotary and Touch-Tone versions, and in multiple colours including brown, white, yellow, and turquoise.
A functional object, treated as pure form.
Appartement Paradis — Paris
Joris Poggioli
A bathroom shaped like a composition.
The weight of marble,
the gloss of black lacquer,
the sharp lines of the mirror extending the space.
Everything feels precise, almost architectural,
yet soft through light and reflection.
Even the Panton Chair sits there like part of the geometry.
Grace Jones — Honda Elite campaign, 1984
Part of Honda’s “New Wave” campaign, developed to position the Elite scooters as unconventional, design-led objects rather than standard transport.
The Honda Elite 150 Deluxe is defined by its angular bodywork and pop-up headlight, reflecting the “sci-fi” aesthetic of the time.
The red is central here.
Strong, direct, and impossible to ignore.
The image carries that same energy — fast, sharp, and deliberate.
Constructivist ring — France, c. 1965
A vintage piece influenced by Constructivism, an art and architectural movement based on geometric abstraction and industrial forms.
The ring is built around a central cube element,
held by a structured sterling silver band.
Typical materials include silver (often oxidised) combined with stones such as hematite, onyx, or smoky quartz.
Part of the broader Modernist and Brutalist jewellery movement of the mid-20th century, with strong references to Bauhaus principles.
