From Sweden’s studio esinam, the Elevations Architectural Print Series is a thoughtful collection of portraits of famous international cities. In architectural drawings, elevations are flat representations of the façade of a building, showing a complete view of one building’s side. The Paris Elevations Architectural Print includes architectural drawings of five buildings—Sacré-Cœur, Palais Garnier, Arc de Triomphe, Pont Marie, and Centre Georges Pompidou.
The Berlin Elevations Architectural Print celebrates building from the German capital, including iconic structures alongside lesser known places, focusing on the often overlooked details that comprise the modern urban experience. This print provides architectural drawings of five of Berlin’s buildings— Brandenburger Tor, Berliner Siegesäule, Am Kupfergraben 10, Berliner Fernsehturm, and Neue Nationalgalerie.
Located in Denmark, Kristina Dam Studio is a multifaceted design studio founded by designer Kristina Dam. The studio is focused on connecting the worlds of graphic design, interior spaces, and art. Shown here in By Lassen’s Illustrate Frames alongside the View Mirror, Kristina Dam’s architectural prints are striking accents that blend digital printing and hand drawing.

Her framed prints include the Abstraction House, Danish House, Finn Juhl House, Mountain House, Simpel House, and Tree House Illustrations.
In the Danish House Illustration, Kristina Dam Studio celebrates Danish architect and designer Finn Juhl. A part of the “An Abstraction of FJ” series, this print is defined by its use of line, geometric details, and pattern. The series is based on multiple hand drawings she created while studying the work of Finn Juhl. Kristina Dam called to Juhl’s use of curved lines in his designs, which is clearly celebrated here in the House Print.
Set on a green-blue background, the Tree House Illustration from Kristina Dam Studio is comprised of patterned lines, angles, and geometric shapes to create the appearance of a modern home, curving front stairway, and surrounding trees. The result is a composed illustration that looks both architectural and abstract, depending on how it is viewed.
The Stockholm Elevations Architectural Print includes architectural drawings of five buildings—the Kaknästornet, City Hall, City Library, Concert Hall, and the Stortorget. This large print is available in an unframed version, or a rich maple, modern black, or sleek white frame. A limited edition of 1,000 prints, each Stockholm Elevations Print is numbered. It can be used as a standalone print, or alongside other studio esinam prints to create a global, architectural art tribute.

Shibata made the 10-person dining table using $130 sawhorse legs from Maruki Wood Products Company topped with a sheet of birch plywood. A hole in the sliding wall fits over the table, enabling it to be used in both the library and the meeting room.

Masahiro and Mao Harada of Mount Fuji Architects Studio wanted to break with the traditional definition of a house when they designed this small Tokyo home. They achieved their goal by using the same material for the ceiling, the walls, and the floor, creating a space that flows beautifully.

Designed by Monica Förster, the Brushed Brass Flower Pots celebrate the shape of traditional terracotta pots and elevates the look with a luxurious material selection. Maintaining the historical production methods of the Skultuna factory, these flower pots are made through the traditional practice of metal spinning.
