In a minimalist space, furniture and accessories earn
an additional highlight, and this is clearly visible in this house.
For me it was very important that the furniture used
on model correspond as closely as possible to what currently exists in the
house, so I had to find out more about it.
Obviously I already knew most of the furniture, and
knew it was from the architect, but the surprise was to find that there are
also parts that are not.
The pieces designed by Mies are all manufactured by
Knoll (http://www.knoll.com/shop/by-designer/ludwig-mies-van-der-rohe) and all
3D SketchUp models are available on the site.
The 3d made available are very detailed, which is
good, but they are too heavy to my work, so I poured myself of them only as a
base to create more easily the main volumes. As usual, photographic textures give the desired
realistic aspect.
I found that the bed, the desk, the table and the
storage unit have been designed on purpose to this house, at the request of the
second owner in 1972.
And who was responsible for such work ?, Mies's
grandson, Dirk Lohan, also architect.
On its website (http://www.dirklohandesigns.com) I’ve
found the necessary information to create models, simplified of course, then
only apply photos.
The lamps were very hard to find, but I got there...
Found that they are from the 60s and have signature
Cedric Hartman (http://cedrichartman.com), but it was in a very interesting
online sales site:
(https://www.1stdibs.com/creators/cedric-hartman/furniture/) that
I’ve discovered this, as well as the data needed for modeling, basically
measurements and images at various angles.
(in the next stroke I will speak of the landscape)
