Diseño Británico, Temazcal y Capilla Moderna

Esta pequeña Capilla se emplaza en un solar de 120 m² y al igual que la “Casa Ponce” forma parte del conjunto de construcciones que conforman la “Quinta Mamá Ali” ubicada a las afueras de la ciudad de Villahermosa.

La concepción del proyecto trata de dos elementos constructivos que dan forma al volumen y generan el espacio útil de la capilla. El primero es un muro perimetral en forma de “C” que genera el espacio de una pequeña nave y el segundo elemento es el techo, un forjado reticular en forma de “L”.

La capilla es un espacio completamente abierto, los elementos -el muro y el techo- quedan separados 60 cm en todos sus lados y solamente se unen en cuatro puntos a través de columnas de acero

En el acceso se propone un pequeño atrio que vestíbula el acceso al recinto. En este espacio se encuentra un espejo de agua que penetra hacia el interior generando el lugar en el que se ubica el altar, éste queda definido por el espejo de agua y una cruz de acero.

La materialidad queda definida por piedra caliza negra en el muro perimetral tanto interior como exterior, y el techo de hormigón visto. Las obras comenzaran a partir de Enero del 2012.

Outdoor Showers Are Now a Form of Art

January 12, 2012 byOceanHome

The outdoor shower moves from utilitarian to work of art. By Perry Patois Outdoor showers are a means for ridding the grit that clings to kids and adults alike after a day at the beach, but today, they are as much an artistic statement as a cleaning mechanism. Christopher Grubb should know. As president of Beverly Hills-based Arch-Interiors Design Group, Inc. Arch-Interiors Design Group Arch-Interiors Design Group, he’s designed and built an array of outdoor showers, mostly for homes in and near Malibu. For him, the outdoor shower is more than just a tool. “I like to make it stand out,” he says. “It should be a focal point.” One of his latest projects (above) emphasizes the outdoor shower as part of a backyard escape. The glass mosaic-tiled shower is positioned vertically to emphasize the height, and the tiles sparkle in the light of an adjacent fire pit. “It was all about, ‘How do we bring this into the landscape as a piece of art that is also functional?’” says Grubb, who is also fond of adding attractive drain covers,he recommends California Faucets, which, he says, take on a jewel-like form. “It blends in and becomes a whole nature experience.” Outdoor showers are usually considered part of the architecture of a house; however, for oceanfront homes, Grubb recommends blending the shower into the outdoor landscape. Grubb, who prefers freestanding showers to wall-mounted versions, uses woods—from teak to redwood—to accomplish the effect. Options for outdoor showers are also becoming more luxurious. While handhelds and foot washes are conventional, Grubb has started adding rainshower heads and body jets. “It’s like a full spa experience,” he says. Aqua Adagio and Arc Column The outdoor shower has become so must-have that many manufacturers are unveiling specific lines.Jaclo , based in Cranford, New Jersey, manufactures high-end and stylized shower systems and accessories and offers a line of outdoor shower columns through its spa collection (inset). Its freestanding Arch Column and Aqua Adagio are 100 percent stainless steel, which looks sharp and is a bulwark against the outdoor elements. “Because the surface area of polished stainless steel is smooth, it’s hard to penetrate with outdoor elements,” says Jaclo’s Tim Mullally. He adds that polished stainless steel is the best material to use to keep outdoor shower fixtures looking young and new, though some designers employ copper to achieve a natural patina over time. Outdoor showers are already part of the environment, but being green is still important. Jaclo’s showerheads can deliver water as low as 1.75 gallons per minute. “Because you can never save enough water,” Mullally says.

The Get: Jaclo’s Aqua Adagio and Arc Column What do you get when you fuse minimalist design with high-end technology? Jaclo’s product line of freestanding outdoor showers, Aqua Adagio and Arc Column. The New Jersey-based company has outfitted showers at such hotels as Las Vegas’s MGM SkyLofts and New York’s Essex House and Parker Meridian hotels, so it knows its stuff. The pair of outdoor showers, part of Jaclo’s Spa Collection, are made from brushed or polished stainless steel and, when not in use, double as outdoor sculptures. Aqua Adagio has a waterfall and aerated foot-wash function, while Arc (left) has a rainshower spray function along with the aerated foot-wash function. Both are equipped with side mount controls. 800-852-3906. Counter Cultures Scott Mayoral Photography Counter Cultures Facebook

NEW, UNIQUE TUMBLED BRONZE FINISH

NEW, UNIQUE TUMBLED BRONZE FINISH Danze Faucets Danze, Inc. has announced the addition of its Tumbled Bronze finish that has already piqued the interest of the kitchen/bath industry.

ROHL INSPIRES LUXURY IN THE BATH WITH THE JÖRGER COLLECTION

I

rvine, CA – Roaring fireplaces, sparkling crystal chandeliers and espresso machines are moving from the living room and kitchen to the bath. Affluent homeowners are transforming their bathrooms into luxurious, private sanctuaries using only the finest, most exclusive products.

In these elite spaces, cashmere towels hang from polished silver hooks, glass bottles of Clive Christian’s 1872 Perfume sit on marble countertops, and velvet Bottega Veneta slippers rest next to the gilded feet of a cast iron clawfoot tub. Rooms with such distinction deserve special products. ROHL’s exclusive Jörger Collection brings the opulence of a European palace into your home.

Bathroom Fittings Fit For A Grand Duke

The namesake of the ROHL Jörger Collection, Bernhard Jörger, acted as master plumber to the court of the Grand Duke Friedrich II of Baden during the early 20th century. His eye for fine design and high quality craftwork landed him the job of maintaining the baths of the most luxurious castles and palaces in the region. An especially lavish palace, the Schloss Mannheim, a large, Baroque-style palace, housed the Grand Duke himself.

In 1965 the grandson of Bernhard, engineer Gerhard Jörger co-founded what is now Jörger – a company dedicated to providing handcrafted, luxury fixtures for the most special of places. Each piece is crafted using high grade, special alloy brass. Exclusive design, detailed finishing and technical perfection are hallmarks of this line.

The Aphrodite Collection

The Aphrodite Collection

Inspired by Ancient Greece, the Aphrodite Collection features elegantly crafted fixtures, faucets and accessories that highlight the most classic design – the Ionic Column, which represents strength and dignity.

The spout and handles of the Aphrodite C-spout 3-hole widespread lavatory faucet (607.30.300-2) are indicative of the columns found in the Coliseum in Rome, as well as the Erechtheion in Athens. The shape and detail on the Wall Mounted Soap Dish Holder (607.00.007) is reminiscent of the semi-circle sculptural decorative elements found on Greek temples.

In the Jörger Special Order Collection, the Aphrodite is enveloped in a beautiful gold plating with an additional process applied with silver ingredients that allow the product to turn completely bluish. The fixture is hand polished for superior sparkle that is sure to become the centerpiece of your bath.

The Empire II Collection

Much like a sleek European sports car, the Empire II Collection celebrates the elegance of simple, fluid design. Emphasis on geometric shapes gives this collection a modern edge. The Single Lever Single Hole Lavatory Faucet (628.10.833-2) is the definition of minimalist design, featuring only basic elements with limited flourish.

The 3-Hole Deck Mount Tub Filler (628.30.110) creates a pure, calming presence in the bath. The lack of ornamentation offers a visual expression of serenity, thus mentally preparing you for relaxation before even dipping a toe in the bath water.

Crystal handles add a dose of glamour to the Empire Royal 3-Hole Lavatory Faucet (600.30.300) in the Jörger Special Order Collection. The crystal prism handles compliment the sleekness of the curved faucet for a look that is as contemporary as it is chic.

ROHL is honored to bring the richness of European luxury to the States through the Jörger Collection.
