Human Chair By Martin Azua

For this piece of furniture you don’t need any material support!

And in addition see how it bonds people together!

On this Republic Day what better we need than a ‘Human Chair’ – absolutely heart warming project by Barcelona based Martin Ruiz De Azua.

Must check the ‘Human Chair’ video on his website (click on projects)

See some  flag hoisting I did in earlier post.

Hide and Seek

A small playground at Deepalaya School, Guspethi, Haryana (India)

Architects: @ Romi Khosla Design Studio

Here basic architectural elements are turned upside down!

There is a playground in a house – a house in a play ground.

Let’s play hide and seek!

Doors and windows here take you to open space and walls are see-through and move too!

And if you need you can create your own private space as all the panels can pivot.

Romi Khosla a veteran Indian architect is an urban planner and author too.

Romi Khosla Design Studio is a Delhi based lead consultancy.
