Surfaces Reporter - June 2018

I denne utgaven

This issue has filtered 100+ designs from one of the best furniture and interior design shows of the world.

Do you know, Vertica Dvivedi and Madhurima clicked around 3000 photos this year at Milan Design Week? On top of this, several designers poured down their designs for this special issue. It was a mammoth task to churn the hundred from the several thousand.

People in Design, Art & Architecture do not miss to visit Milan Design Week and the famed Salone del Mobile. However, photography prohibition and lack of the time limit the experiences of many designers. To ensure that our readers get a great preview of the global best design show, Surfaces Reporter brings to you #SR100DesignsFromMilan every year, which is undoubtedly an arduous task.

This issue has featured work of very young designers to the well-known like Kengo Kuma, Daniel Libeskind, India Mahdavi, Fabio Novembre, Karim Rashid and more.

Proud to inform that our effort is not only recognized in India and Salone del Mobile but highly regarded by other media of the world as well. You will trust that this kind of an issue is born only out of very deep passion for design, and we believe our discerned readers deserve it!

Vernacular Traditions & Modern Influences In The Architecture Of Kerala

Home to multiple ideologies moulded from varied cultures, Kerala is a state which is a kaleidoscope of religions, cultures, cuisine and architecture, says Ar Babu Cherian, Principal, BCA Architecture, Calicut. Situated in the heart of the city at Mavoor Road, BCA Architecture delivers architectural solutions for all types of projects including traditional/ contemporary style residences. With a unique combination of resources, skills and vision, he often draws inspirations from the spectacular land scenario of Kerala and the architect in him steps into the spirit and character of the Kerala style of architecture. Practicing traditional vernacular architecture which features heavy use of craftsmanship, his designs and products are more the work of the craftsman than of the architect. His recent works are interpretations of the traditional Kerala style with their sloping roofs laid with Mangalore pattern tiles and plastered walls rendering a feeling of timelessness leading you to a bygone era. His residences, condominiums/apartments, commercial complexes etc strikes a chord between architecture and people. SURFACES REPORTER invited Ar Cherian to share some of his insights on Vernacular influences in modern architecture of Kerala.
