OMG! I came across Berlin-based artist Matthew Davis while spending time on Pinterest (yes! My name is Keren and I am a “pinner”) and fell in love immediately. The talented artist creates these amazing surreal images by using his brush to slowly drip oil paints into small pools resulting in a multi-dimensional piece of art.

Singapore-based architecture firm Topos Design Studio has designed this amazing modern home entitled Sunset Residence.
Description from the architects : Situated in a secluded cul-de-sac in the fashionable area of Bukit Timah in Singapore, this private family residence is a beautiful and understated piece of bespoke and holistic architectural design. The modest entrance façade gently invites you through into a stunning pool area which reveals the U-shaped plan of the building. This form allows for seclusion as well as views of the pool area from virtually every room in the house as well as fantastic ventilation through full height sliding louver and glass doors. This is helped by the orientation of residence to make full use of the day and night prevailing breeze.
The simple no fuss architectural language of the house is further accentuated by a 4 tone colour palette to not only highlight the form, but also to allow the client’s stunning pieces of furniture to take centre stage. This unpretentious approach in keeping to the natural and simplistic setting of the built environment led to a refined and elegant feel to the spaces, worthy of the esteemed client.
