Cristina Celestino gives the Milan bistro "28 Posti" a makeover

The "28 Posti" has been around for six years now - time for a complete makeover, according to the owners. And for this they brought the designer and architect Cristina Celestino on board.

Cristina Celestino redesigns the bistro

Cristina Celestino's individual style stands for elegance through striking shapes, exquisite materials and here - in the most positive sense - a touch of construction site. This was exactly what the team at "28 Posti" in Milan envisioned for the makeover of the trendy restaurant in the Italian design metropolis.

In terms of color, the gourmet temple makes use of a palette of warm pastel and earth tones, rounded off by various wood finishes, terracotta from Fornace Brioni, waxed steel and lightly saturated blue. The walls under the historic wooden beams on the ceiling are covered with terracotta from Celestino's "Gonzaga" collection, next to it treated with earth plaster by Matteo Brioni. In the middle of the room, Celestion placed a partition wall made of raw brick.

"My design plays with ideas of authenticity, comfort, simplicity and origin. Everything here aims to create parallels between the interior and the soul of the place: the art of chef Marco Ambrosino."

The "28 Posti" is inviting with warm pastel and earth tones. Highlights include terracotta paneling by Cristina Celestino for Fornace Brioni and masonry plaster by Matteo Brioni.

Celestino created a new spatial structure with a brick partition without interfering with the substance.

Now one of the most important international decision-making spaces has undergone a redesign. On the initiative of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Hella Jongerius and Rem Koolhaas, among others, transformed the Delegates' Lounge at the United Nations headquarters in New York from a tired brown hall into a landscape dominated by earth, water and forest tones. If Harvard is right with its studies, discussions here can strike new notes from now on. For the first time, heads of state and government settled into the leather chairs of the North Delegates' Lounge in 1952, six years after the UN was founded. The décor was up to date: modern, clear and sophisticated, as befitted an informal thinkers' club of this for

Serpentine Pavilion in London by Counterspace For the 20th time, the Serpentine Pavilion has been built in London and has been open to visitors* since June 11. The Johannesburg-based multidisciplinary office Counterspace was commissioned to design it. Founder Sumayya Vally, at 30, is the youngest architect ever to design one of the temporary pavilions. The concept is informed by her life in South Africa as well as her eclectic approach to design. The pavilion is a place to connect the past and present, but it is also where different urban areas and communities are meant to meet. "My work and this pavilion focus on empowering and collaborating with numerous and diverse voices from many different cultures - with an interest in themes of identity, community, belonging, and encounter. The past year has brought these themes into sharp focus and given me the space to reflect on the indescribable generosity of the communities that have been integral to this pavilion," Vally says
