The Dining Room by VSHD Design

The dining room by VSHD Design proposes a dialogue between modernist and baroqueaesthetics, staged around a dinner table setting. Within this conceptual space, the heavily ornamented baroque walls and ceiling engage in a conversation with the sleek, clean-lined modern furniture designed by iconic modernist designers. This creates an atmosphere that invites visitors to contemplate this evident contrast and the connections between two distinct design traditions.

Throughout the design process, the focus of VSHD Design was on blending the historical opulence of the residence with the minimalist sophistication of modernist design. This involved favoring pieces known for functionality and simplicity, while avoiding intricate designs. Inspired by Adolf Loos' philosophy, which suggests that quality material and craftsmanship make ornamentation redundant, the design aimed for a seamless integration of historical richness with contemporary elegance.

VSHD Design has created a unique setting, evoking nostalgia for the past and excitement for the present. Through the exploration of the space, visitors can visualize this rich dialogue, experiencing the harmonious coexistence of two eras. This immersive experience aims to leave visitors feeling inspired, enlightened, and enriched.
