You would be hard pressed to find an issue of Dwell without a Bertoia barstool or chair in it. Launched in 1952, the industrial-strength steel seat is a modern classic without drawing too much attention to itself. $747

A stark collection of abstruse entities, the Belgian pavilion aims to show a new way of looking at the phases of construction materials, especially during 'the time when the material is subjected to use.' The Rotor collective gathered these pieces throughout Belgium, then fragmented them in their states of mild wear and deterioration. This is perhaps a poetic and topical way to frame a random collection of old objects.

AIA architect David Hertz, known for 747 Wing House, looked to the structure of a butterfly wing when designing this Venice home. The inverted roof of Silver Triangle House (or Butterfly House) captures water that collects in a sump and is used for subsurface irrigation. The roof is just one of the home's sustainable features, which, Hertz says, "are not compromises to the design; they're part of the design." Photo by Laura Doss.
