The colour black, with all its ominous implications, is, in reality, tailor-produced for 21st Century architecture. Even even though a black-washed Victorian or Tudor morphs into an architectural cliche of foreboding doom, black lends the clean lines and geometric volumes of contemporary architecture a stark, sophisticated dynamism. This summer season season residence in Tjajkovski, Sweden is a single specific of a number of examples of modern architecture which showcases black as an aesthetic characteristic—and it’s a personalized favored right here at 2Modern. Designed by architectural company Tham & Videgård, the already striking angles, extreme horizontal profile and external detailing of the glass and wood Archipelago House are rendered only far a lot more dramatic by its wealthy black stain. As an even considerably more dramatic counterpoint, the within of the Archipelago home is predominantly white—but these days turning out to be Halloween, it’s only black that has us transfixed.
