DANH VO AT HOME
ART
The idea of home is constantly shifting for Danh Vo who calls the Berlin apartment he has filled with art and collectible design a nest for him and his boyfriend. The Danish Vietnamese artist is now working on a country house and studio where he can learn from nature and see where it leads.
“THINGS ARE JUST MOMENTARY. IT ONLY EXISTS WHEN IT’S SHARED, WHATEVER AND HOWEVER YOU SHARE IT.”
The story featuring Danh Vo’s Berlin apartment and country home is in Ark Journal VOL II.

TAILORED INTERIOR
In the small Belgian village of Itegem, interior architect Peter Ivens discovered a unique and exotic villa with well-preserved 1920’s details reminiscent of a classical British colonial style – a central stairway, symmetrical plan, alcove windows, hipped roof and upper dormer windows.
CASE STUDY
— MONUMENTAL MONOCHROME
The enduring aesthetic of Danish furniture has always been entirely in step with other contemporary design practices, ceramics, glass, textiles, and particularly architecture.
LANDON METZ
Space is important to Landon Metz. In his art, pools of colour float across canvas leaving vast areas of unprimed fabric. In his studio the same sense of space – and the importance of the negative – is evident in the blanks between sparsely scattered furniture and plants.
