Buildings fused with the surrounding landscape — be it the Peruvian desert or Japanese woods — are the big hit in architecture this month. Design has to offer some very appreciated solutions with wood, from layered colouring to roll-out tables, while the iconic Monobloc chair comes back at the Vitra Museum. Our followers are interested in important exhibitions on migration in Europe and native artists in America, finally remembering one of the most important figures in contemporary art, Jannis Kounellis. 

– The archeological museum by Barclay & Crousse in Perù features open spaces that frame portions of the landscape and create the necessary privacy to live in the vast desert.
