Dwell September/October 2017의 목차

Tomorrow’s success depends on the good deeds of today. If there has ever been an age in which progressive design thinking is required, surely this is it. Designers, architects, engineers, builders, innovators of all stripes: We need your ideas, your grasp of beauty, your rejection of banality and cynicism. The gifts of the creative mind must lead the way. Pleasant images of enviable homes are one thing, but architects exploring new materials and techniques are the real focus of our admiration. On Tasmania, an island state of Australia, a partially prefab retreat is surrounded by Tasman gold gravel to ward off the bushfires that plague the area (page 78). Architects Lisa Gray and Alan Organschi used cross-laminated timber, a building material that is gaining notice in the United States for…

Photographer Adrian Gaut Carolina Haiku page 52 Originally from Portland, Oregon, New York–based photographer Adrian Gaut has worked for Condé Nast Traveler, Architectural Digest, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, and GQ, among others. In the last year, he photographed projects in more than 10 countries, including China and the Seychelles. For Dwell, he visited Scaly Mountain, North Carolina, to shoot a little cabin that is the weekend getaway of Michael Neiswander and Nick Corsello. Gaut used a drone to capture exterior shots of the remote dwelling, set amid forests and mountains at the rural western edge of the state. Writer Sam Lubell Sunny Afternoon page 90 New York writer Sam Lubell is the author of seven books about architecture and has written for numerous publications, including The New York Times,…

There’s a controlled bustle inside Fireclay Tile’s factory in tiny Aromas, California. Workers shuttle racks of dried but unfired tiles fresh from the heater, warming the air as they pass, while a 25,000-pound extruder nicknamed “the Junior” forces moist clay into ribbons that are then cookie-cut into perfect squares. A craftsman showers a fine mist of color over rectangular tiles in a graceful sweep, and painters deftly squeeze glaze by hand with breathtaking speed. Founder and chief ceramicist Paul Burns takes it all in with a smile. More than 30 years since he launched the handmade-tile firm with three friends, he’s just as interested in turning raw materials into something useful as he was when he was 10, helping out his tilemaker uncle on weekends. “It’s the process. We take…

Living in harmony with nature means something a little different to everyone. For a woman born and raised on Maui, it’s an idea rooted in her childhood in Wailea, before the area mushroomed into a booming tourist destination. “There were just beautiful beaches and simple single-family homes,” she remembers. “We didn’t spend much time inside.” When the woman inherited an undeveloped plot located on land her family had visited in rural Upcountry Maui since the 1960s, she didn’t want a permanent residence as much as a place to recapture the unrestricted outdoor freedom she’d known growing up. But how to accomplish that? After inviting nature writer and philosopher Kathleen Dean Moore to speak at a land conservation event, she recalled seeing photos of Moore’s tiny writing studio, the Watershed, which…

After living for four years in a small, dark apartment in the Palermo section of Buenos Aires, architect Hernán Landolfo and his girlfriend, Lucia Gentile, were looking for a new home where they could eventually start a family. They had rejected a number of options when they found an opportunity they couldn’t resist: an apartment on Melián Avenue in Belgrano R, a residential district characterized by British architecture, thanks to its proximity to the railways and train station, which were built mainly by English immigrants. “This neighborhood is a total anomaly in the city, a place that recalls another time,” says Hernán. “Melián is one of the few cobblestone avenues where there are still beautiful uncut Tipa trees. We were hoping to find something here.” There were drawbacks, however. At…

@ArchitectMM Your “Editor’s letter” spoke directly to my heart and to what I believe resides at the core of my own design practice. Thank you for your words to live by: “Choose to be extraordinary.” —Wendy Polins Cool to open Dwell to see Exhibit Columbus projects featured. Excitement builds! —@DonnaSinkArch I wanted to tell you that I appreciated the focus on “making” and craft this last issue. The issue was rich with ideas, images, diagrams and details. I know this is satisfying to designers, who have an inherent curiosity about how details come together to create vibrant space, but the depth of reporting also helps raise awareness in homeowners that good design isn’t a commodity . . . a lot of thought and craft and focused work goes into it.…

“I usually say it’s Japanese rustic modern— three words that pull all the elements together.” NICK CORSELLO, RESIDENT Zen-like in its simplicity, the weekend home of Michael Neiswander and Nick Corsello is an Eastern oasis tucked into the mountains of North Carolina. Michael is a principal architect at ASD/ Sky and Nick is a media and entertainment attorney. The couple are based in Atlanta, but when it’s time to decompress, they head straight to their Scaly Mountain getaway, 3,500 feet above sea level and about 90 miles southwest of Asheville, just across the border from Georgia. At approximately 1,000 square feet, it’s a small, concrete-and-darkened-wood hideaway, drawn directly from the little bungalows they once saw on a trip to Kyoto. “The detailing with the board-and-batten is certainly similar,” Michael observes.…

“We tried to find a balance between old and new furniture, exclusive and cheapmaterials, shiny and worn-down surfaces.” Martin Ringqvist, resident When creative director Martin Ringqvist and his wife, My, a teacher, moved back to Sweden after a year in Los Angeles, they wanted an authentic, warm space to live in with their two children. After much deliberation and house hunting, they found what they needed in a four-bedroom flat in Gothenburg’s downtown neighborhood of Vasastan, where many of the buildings date from the 18th and 19th centuries. “On a rainy day in fall, when you feel a bit low, you can look out from our windows and pretend that you’re in the Marais in Paris,” says Martin. “When we stepped into this apartment, everything felt right. Many of the…

GUIDE Fujimori uses a tool to coax the fire up several boards that have been tied together; this ensures an even charring of the wood. WAI T Once the fire is evenly distributed across the length of the boards, it is simply a matter of waiting. SEPARATE After seven minutes— the amount of time it takes to produce the proper degree of char—the boards are separated. DOUSE Water is used to halt the process. After the flames have been put out, the boards continue to crackle and smoke. APPLY The primitive and painstaking process is said to protect wood against rain, rot, and insects for 80 years. It also gives the exteriors a reptilian texture that’s as striking as it is practical.…

“The house had a generic look—lots of golden pine, chopped-up spaces, and laminate countertops,” says designer Diana Vincent of High Camp Home about a 2,700-square-foot A-frame she recently renovated alongside MSM Construction. The team enlarged the kitchen and opened it to the living and dining areas, creating one large space. A dark, cramped staircase was replaced with a freefloating one. Reconfiguring the master bedroom and a bathroom yielded yet more precious usable space. “My first project in design school was an A-frame,” says Vincent. “There will always be something cool in a weird way about an A-frame—you just have to look for it.” dwell.com/tahoe-cabin…

“Jean Prouvé was a man of instinct—he was neither an architect nor an engineer, but as Le Corbusier said of him, he could be both at the same time,” writes design historian Raymond Guidot in Jean Prouvé, a new monograph about the French master published by Galerie Patrick Seguin. Lovingly detailed over 750 pages, the double volume is an enriched version of the one published in 2007 and features scores of photographs and drawings. Also included are remembrances by his daughter, Catherine Prouvé, and essays by Guidot, architecture historian Catherine Coley, and Pritzker Prize–winning architects Renzo Piano and Jean Nouvel.…

For Kathryn and Josh Thole, Denver was the perfect catch. Josh, a professional baseball player now with the Arizona Diamondbacks organization, is on the road from mid February to mid October, leaving just four months a year for the family to spend time together at home. Denver, with its central location, sunny winters, and nearby mountain recreation, offered a place where the Tholes could make the most of the off-season. Finding a house quickly, however, required difficult choices: The Tholes could snap up one of the city’s many bungalows or Tudors—marked by classic, middle-ofthe- country charm but also by small rooms and cramped kitchens—or they could slide into a recent build, sacrificing historic character for sleeker design and more flexible living spaces. They were able to get the best of…

You and your husband, architect Daniel Libeskind, have worked closely since founding Studio Libeskind in 1989. How do you describe your role? I am not an architect, nor am I a businessperson. But I think it’s the glue that helps to stick things together. I’m able to discuss the strategy for the office, the overarching ideas about what we’d like to do. It sounds as though you don’t like to use the language of business. That’s because our office is not run as a standard business. It’s really almost like a family, a very large extended family. It’s not top-down. In our office, young people are part of every project and they’re part of the creative team. Their voices are heard. Why is that important in making architecture? Too much…

“It’s very boat-like, how overthought it is in its compactness.” Peter Pfau, architect Mill Valley, California, is not the town that time forgot—although it can sometimes feel like a modern-day Middle-earth. Folksy and friendly, the wooded enclave 14 miles north of San Francisco is traversed by a creek and a multitude of hiking trails, and its houses are dwarfed by redwoods— which in turn are dwarfed by Mount Tamalpais, whose peaks are visible one moment and shrouded in swirling, glowing mists the next. Over the decades, Mill Valley has retained its laid-back vibe while absorbing newcomers seeking access to peace, nature, and good public schools. Two such transplants, Tim and Stefanie Rosa, formerly of La Jolla, were renting a place near Mill Valley’s downtown when they stumbled upon their future…

Ask any two people from New Haven what Firehouse 12 is, and you’re almost bound to get two different answers. To music lovers, the restored 1905 fire station on Crown Street is Connecticut’s preeminent venue for experimental jazz, a place where artists who normally have a hard time booking gigs outside of major cities can draw an enthusiastic crowd. For the civic-minded, it’s a local success story, the crown jewel in New Haven’s decades-long effort to clean up the Ninth Square district. And for others, it’s simply a downtown watering hole, albeit a very nice one presided over by an award-winning bartender. The truth is, Firehouse 12 is all those things, a beacon for the arts and a hub for the community. And at the heart of the venture, started…
