Vynebar is a trendy and sophisticated solution to store wine. It not only have very simple shape but also is very easy to install. It could be mounted under a kitchen cabinet or on any other wall at your kitchen, dining and living areas. The wine rack remove clutter, display your specially selected vintages and gives an easy access to them. The Vynebar comes in two sizes, to hold 4 or 8 bottles, and have 8 anodized metal colors to choose from. These anodized colors are not paint or powder-coat, they are a chemical bath that colorizes the metal itself leaving you with a permanent finish that will not chip off or fade over time. If you’re one of those geeks who’ve got interested in wine thanks to all these shows, like Gary Vaynerchuck’s one, and cares about home decor then the Vynebar might be a cool addition to it.

Description of the Setia Eco Villa from TWS Partners:

This project is located at the palm coconut plantation, in Syah Alam district, 15 minutes ride from Kuala Lumpur. The site where the building is located is part of the master plan of satellite city, which comprise of residential, and other supported facility, named Setia Eco Park. This development brings the Green Environment concept, within the site planning, dedicated to middle upper class market.

The clients brief is to create an unique, modern, sustainable architecture style without leave tropical aspects as a starting point. The site itself was a part of master plan of integrated mixed use and residential function called SETIA ECO PARK, which carried the GREEN ENVIRONMENT concept, within their design concept, and intended to be sold to the midlle up market.

The design brief came from the client to create the housing environment which will reflects the modernity of asian architecture style without leaving the tropical aspects as design constraint.

Derive from the clients brief, we decide to play an additive form generator to create a massing and, in the same time, functional space as well. The indoor space was analogize in pure geometric box, which composed, juxtaposed and inter connected one and the other with a gap in between, which interpreted to a circulation or buffer zone, to infiltrate natural air and daylight, as much as possible.

In vertical way, the massing were rotated and juxtaposed perpendicular one and the other to create the in between space into roof garden. With this roof garden, we try to create a rain water catchments surfaces to replace the ground which covered by the building. Also giving an added value to the room at upper level, as a direct outdoor orientation from within. This rotation of the massing also give a shadow effect to the room below. The usage of few kind of texture and color to this building, also refer to the richness and diversity of aian architecture in general.

The usage of wide canopy in the top part of the building also play a double role, as a place for solar panel, beside as a canopy. This amount of solar panel was calculated to reduce 30 % of energy consumed within this villa.
