The 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 of the material can be exploited to create 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘄, transforming the structure into a work of art in itself and contributing to the 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘂𝗺'𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿. In addition, the easy processing of this material allows architects to create 𝗯𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀.

TMH Commissions On the occasion of our 10th anniversary this year, we would like to share various pages from our website as a way of looking back at our historical exhibition projects. Discover how different artists have responded to TMH's space over the years: “All of Boris Chouvellon’s sculptures seem to present abandoned landscapes and machines. Mechanical fossils, baby carriages, carousels and amusement rides speak of the absence of man… From among his recurring objects…there emerges an ambiguity: that of the formal proximity of the hamster wheel of a cage and the Ferris wheel of a fair. It is the proximity between life approached from the standpoint of common pleasure and from the standpoint—equally futile—of the alienation brought on by everyday activities…” —Hubert Besacier 🖼️ Boris Chouvellon Génie civil, 2016 Making Things Happen: Young Artists in Dialogue III, 2018 Concrete, metal, baby stroller, and lawn mower 220 cm in diameter x 95 cm in depth 📸 Image: Arjen Veldt #borischouvellon #merchanthousenl #themerchanthouse #art #contemporaryart #modernart #architecture #interior #apartment #paris #gallery #exhibition #installation #amsterdam #herengracht #herengracht254

Nature sceneries inside light reflections, refractions and its inspiration. ---------------------------------- My graduation project, "The Beauty of Time Passing" can be seen at Design Academy Eindhoven Graduation Show in DDW. Date: Oct. 21-29, 2023 Place: Heuvel Galerie, 5611 DK Eindhoven ----------------------------------- Traditional Japanese architecture harmonically blends nature with the artificial. Using light, glossy wooden floors, garden ponds and paper screens, the outside enters the home through reflected light. Toshihito Endo sees this use of light reflection as humanity’s oldest attempt at virtual reality. Most modern cityscapes, however, inhibit this particular use of light. A smart digital window that opens to beautiful nature scenery aims to modernize this ancient virtual reality. Through vertically stacked blocks of glass, its light and colours reflect on the surrounding walls. It shows various nature scenes that you can match to the weather. Where technology can sometimes make us lose touch with the outside world, Toshihito sees an opportunity to help us reconnect with nature. Text: Shane Bergvik Photo of Ruriko-in in Japan: @raph_lop

In resonance with Julia Morgan's idea, I fully agree that architecture can be a visual art, and the buildings speak for themselves. Every line drawn and corner sculpted echoes a story, maybe a vision, and definitely some artistic expression. Structures are not just a testament to technical expertise but also a reflection of aesthetic sensibilities. Curious, what are some of your favorite buildings or monuments? #ArchitectureIsArt #BuildingsSpeak #JuliaMorgan #ArchitecturalExpression #ShapingLandscapes

A well-known sculptor Constantin Brancusi's quote implies a deep connection between sculpture and architecture, emphasizing that both include the forms that have a profound impact on those who interact with them. In this sense, architecture is viewed as a sort of artistic expression that fundamentally changes the human experience of place, rather than only a pragmatic or utilitarian profession. This statement is implying that architecture, like sculpture, is an art form that shapes built with humans in mind. #architecture #architecturalquotes #architect #inspirationalquotes #architecturaldesign #ArchitecturalExcellence #interiordesigners #tranquilglobal #weeklyquotepost
