Watch & Learn: How Parasite's house was made

By now you all should be familiar with Bong Joon–Ho's movie Parasite. If you recall, the house was immaculate, and its design was every minimalist's dream. What you probably don't know is that it was actually A SET, and was assembled through computer graphics to make it look like the very real deal. If you're a film and/or architecture geek like us we also have a super short video for you!

Item of the Week: XL Chair XLCO1 by Reinaldo Sanguino

Sanguino is a Venezuelan-born, NY-based artist that specializes in ceramics. His work is included in major private collections, as well as in a couple of museum's permanent collections. He's also been featured in Architectural Digest, Surface Mag, Wallpaper Mag, and The Wall Street Journal, among others. "Sanguino’s work comes about through improvisation and chance." The sculptures are fully functional and are even more stunning in real life.

For Your Viewing Pleasure: Pain & Glory

Now I'm no expert, but this unanimously revered film by Almodovar is enthralling, to say the least. The storyline is beautifully structured and almost reads as an autobiography (although it is NOT), and the acting by Antonio Banderas is one of his finest. And as we might expect from his director, Pedro Almodóvar, the graphic design and set design are borderline fantastical. Please watch, and let me know if you can spot all of the fabulous, and expensive, artwork and furniture. 

Chic Living: Mandy Moore's Mid-Century Home

Her 1950's Pasadena home was remodeled by a talented team comprised of interior designer Sarah Sherman Samuel and architect Emily Farnham. While the house had undergone an 'updating' in the 90s, the goal was to revive it to its natural conception, as devised by its modernist architect Harold B. Zook. The result was an impeccable, laid back (yet meticulous) restoration of a home that honors the past as much as the present. Following the same pattern, the interior decor achieves the chic but playful status by playing with old, new, high, and low.  

Aaand voilà for today. If you have any questions or comments, or if you came across something interesting you’d like to share, simply respond to this e-mail as I’d love to hear from you!
