Inspiring teak & palissander chairs by Arne Jacobsen

"The primary factor is proportions. Proportions are what makes the old Greek temples classic in their beauty. They are like huge blocks, from which the air has been literally hewn out between the columns.

Whether one looks at a baroque, renaissance or contemporary building - the buildings that one enjoys to look at, the ones that one admires, are all well-proportioned, that is absolutely essential. Next comes the material - not mixing the wrong materials. And out of this comes, of course, the colour - and, in sum, the overall impression."

Mid-century modernism in Bali : Luna2, beachfront private hotel

"Conceptualised by Melanie Hall, in collaboration with US-based architect David Wahl of Wahl architects, the ultra-modern design is reminiscent of great modernism of the past century, with a clear vision of the future."
