A
GI���s Mop House (2006-2011) in Kuwait is a
unified work of art, a Gesamtkunstwerk, in early twentieth century parlance. An ultra-modern house that is
all acute angles would seem to have little regard for the
traditional repose of furniture and objects. But ���Mop��� is
a house for the twenty-second century, and client and
architects have treated it as such, through and through.
Its furnishing scheme matches, indeed answers, the
radical form of the residence, ���reminiscent of the movement patterns of a mop, from which flexible volumes
are organized diagonally around a central axis.��� AGI���s
