Inspired by informal office meetings and breakout areas, the design of the Vibe Freestyle Lounge brings much needed utility to commercial designer seating. The key features of the design are the wide, flat armrests, which are the perfect height for laptop use, and the space optimizing storage shells within the arms. These storage shells are available lined with wood veneer, or fabric. By combining different finishes on the body and shells, specifiers are offered unlimited creativity to customize Freestyle’s look to their needs and vision. The freestyle lounge is available in 2, 2.5 and 3 seat configurations.

The Klein Bottle House designed by McBride Charles Ryan is located in the town of Rye, just outside Melbourne, Australia.
The house is described by complex shapes and spaces that revolve around a central courtyard with a grand regal stair connecting all the levels.
When is a home addition not a home addition? When it is done as elegantly as the Lilyfield House in Sydney, Australia. Nobbs Radford Architects created this subtle modern extension, drawing inspiration from the humble original cottage, with its flanks clad in narrow wooden weatherboards, while still managing to convey a functional, standalone character. Starting from the original 19th-century weatherboard house, this modern addition evokes the ad-hoc add-on spirit embodied by decades of extensions. This addition nearly doubles the living space and maintains the spirit of the original pitched roof design without mimicking it.
