Smile Designer Dental Office Interiors / Antonio Sofan

Andrew Rosenberg — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 00:00:00 +0000

The initial commitment with the client was that this dental office would be stark white and the only focus of color would be reserved for the ceilings of the treatment rooms. The internally illuminated full size digital prints on stretched fabric would keep patients entertained while they are being treated. The images where commissioned to photography artist Carlos Tobon. He shot from below to his glass pool floor studio, all three scenes of hands playing with different objects in the water. The shooting light was kept consistently tinted to achieve a unified hue throughout the treatment rooms. Along came more color as the design evolved but all of it was extracted as variations of the turquoise blues found in the digital images.

Sinu River House / Antonio Sofan

500 sqm house built to overlook the Sinu River, the second largest of Colombia. Its valley of fertile land and steamy weather all year around is lined up with dense gangs of wild trees that at the water’s edge brush the river current. The design concept starts with 2 white boxes connected by the access and from which large pieces are taken away creating shaded terraces. Blue color is uncovered when subtracting from the mass in the form of thin mosaic surfaces revealed by "z" shaped metal trims.

Santa Elena is a rural farming area up in the mountains, east of Medellín, Colombia. It composes a group of 17 small villages called: “veredas”. People who live down in the valley think of Santa Elena as a scenic, fresh air place of cool temperatures.
