The form is the result of these premises, the creation of two volumes that respond to the simplification of the original home of the village.  © German Cabo  Ground Floor Plan + Section  © German Cabo The program consists of a ground floor of daytime character. The staircase, as a central element, articulates the spaces between the most public areas (kitchen, dining room and living room), the most private (bathroom and study). The first floor night area has two bedrooms with bathrooms.  © German Cabo With the initial premise of providing privacy to the house, direct views to the outside are avoided, so the lighting is resolved by longitudinal void flush with the ceiling on the ground floor and on the floor on the first floor, through skylights in superior bathrooms and through the window dining room, focusing the views towards the interior yard.  © German Cabo  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Military Museum: Call for Ideas Posted: 25 Mar 2018 09:00 PM PDT  YAC – Young Architects Competitions – and the Italian Government launch "Military Museum", an architectural competition to re-purpose a breathtaking military fortress in Sardinia into an international hub dedicated to the military history. A cash prize of € 20,000 will be awarded to the winners selected by a well-renowned jury made of, among the others, Fuensanta Nieto (Nieto Sobejano), Rossana Hu (Neri&Hu), Todd Saunders (Saunders Architecture), Edoardo Tresoldi, Livia Tani (Ateliers Jean Nouvel) .jpg?1521575885 "Courtesy of YAC") Courtesy of YAC There are places in which history is extremely meaningful. There are spaces where memory becomes nearly physical, tangible and where the memory of the past is stunningly real and intensively present. The military fortress of Capo d'Orso in Palau is one of these places. It is sculpted in the granite of a monumental coast. From its bastions, the luxurious yachts sailing in the Mediterranean Sea evoke the English galleons, which chased the Napoleonic fleet in the same sea stretch centuries ago. Here wars have ended, soldiers are gone. However, the barracks, the shooting stations, the arsenals have lived on. They are forgotten pieces of architecture that have survived their own purpose. They are the legacy of difficult times when the pages of history were written by the steel of bayonets and cannons. To a certain extent, it is a history that is too recent and too hard to tell. However, it is crucial to pass this history on to the new generations. That is the reason why Military Museum was launched. This is a YAC competition in collaboration with the Italian Government in order to transform the Military Fortress of Capo d'Orso into a museum of the military, marine and navigation history. It will be a place where the account of the events that occurred in this sea stretch can originate one of the most fascinating museums of the Mediterranean. It will attract the millions of tourists who crowd these coasts every year. It will be the new foundation to build a civilization of peace and solidarity.  Courtesy of YAC How to transform war architectures into new tourist and cultural architectures? How to harmonize a past of conflicts with a present of entertainment and escapism? This is the challenge of Military Museum. This competition will offer designers the opportunity to design the most important center for the discovery of the Military History. It will be a place where to get involved with the account of ancient events and a time when the sea was tamed by the sweat of man and the roaring of cannons. Renewed by culture and new architectures, the fortress of Capo d'Orso will no longer serve the logic of violence. It will rather enrich the contemporary society by giving the world one of the most fascinating museums in Europe. This museum will be set among the rocks of wild nature and located in one of the most majestic landscapes of the Mediterranean.  Courtesy of YAC Jury

| City Library Heidenheim / Max Dudler Posted: 25 Mar 2018 08:00 PM PDT  © Stefan Müller
 © Stefan Müller Text description provided by the architects. The inner city of Heidenheim is characterised by post-war architecture, which is visually distinct from the historical development of the Old Town. Max Dudler's new library building is situated on the previously inaccessible property of a former penal institution, which has hitherto manifested the division between the small-scale development in the eastern part of the city and the Old Town. The new city library now connects the two areas: As an urban figure, it reflects the many layers of Heidenheim's architectural history and the scale of the surrounding area by making proportional reference to the gabled buildings in the adjacent Old Town. Between the two "heads" rising into the sky spans an urban landscape made up of smaller "houses", the layout of which is oriented on the long structure parallel to it. The transformation of the "organic" city results in a sculptural structure, an urban silhouette. In conjunction with the neighbouring St. Paul's Church and the old town hall, the new building can be seen both as a solitary object and an integral part of the urban context.  © Stefan Müller  Section  © Stefan Müller The urban setting and formulation of the new building block refers directly to the existing typologies in the inner city, characterised by passages, squares and promenades. With the new urban esplanade on the east side, the new building connects the central bus station in the north with the Town Hall to the south, thus creating a new link and an exceptional urban area. The plant beds, which project into the square, reflect the silhouette of the building in their shape. Between the neighbouring structure and the new building, a passageway emerges as a counterpart to the promenade in the front.  © Stefan Müller The large-format windows deliberately stand out from the filigree architecture of the surrounding area. With the deep-set soffits, they direct the visitor's view into the urban space and alternate with finely perforated wall surfaces, which allows filtered daylight into the interior. From the outside, the actual scale of the windows is difficult to gauge, creating an exciting contrast to the expansive wall surfaces. The façade material is light beige brickwork, whose colour references Schloss Hellenstein, which towers above the centre of the town. By using handcrafted water- based clinkers, an interplay of lighter and darker shades of beige is created on the façade. The vibrant character of the masonry is supported by the irregular shape of the clinkers and the type of joint mortar. With their relief-like surface texture, the large, closed brick wall surfaces appear restrained in scale. On the end sides of the building and on the ground floor area a perforated-masonry, translucent brickwork is used, which intensifies the sculptural, monolithic character of the building.  © Stefan Müller  Plan  © Stefan Müller The building will house the city library, an integrational café, an event hall, a public media centre and the city archive. The mixture of uses transforms the building into a public place with a certain identity, and this special significance is expressed in its architecture. Located at the newly designed forecourt, the main entrance, which is open to the outside, invites visitors into the foyer that spans the building's entire height. The various functions are immediately apparent from here. From the entrance foyer, the path leads to the "market square", or the library, as well as to the large event hall, designed for approx. 160 spectators, and to the district media centre. From the market square, a generous staircase leads to the non-book area of the library on the first floor and to the so-called "promenade" on the second floor, which connects all five high-ceilinged reading rooms. The café at the southern end of the building, which is also accessible from the forecourt, forms another entrance and centre of attraction.  © Stefan Müller The actual library area is a column-free space continuum; it extends over the entire second floor and forms the distinctive, striking silhouette of the building. A sequence of high library halls and low cabinets creates a captivating sequence of rooms, which, via the more than 110-meter-long promenade, can be experienced at a glance. This arrangement of rooms of alternating heights characterises the reading landscape and creates exciting visual references within the different areas. Two reading terraces on the top floor invite visitors to linger in the fresh air in good weather. All the interior furniture and fixtures were designed by Max Dudler. They are completely white and highlighted with oak accents, e.g. the shelves in the gallery space and the furniture in the information area. A light grey polished concrete terrazzo with locally sourced aggregates was selected for the flooring.  © Stefan Müller With the City Library in Heidenheim, Max Dudler has constructed his fourth library. Currently he is working on the realisation of two other library buildings: the central library of the Justus Liebig University in Gießen and the extension of the state and city library in Augsburg.  © Stefan Müller  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Hotel Revier / Carlos Martinez Architekten Posted: 25 Mar 2018 07:00 PM PDT  © Marc Lins
 © Marc Lins Simplistic Luxury  © Revier Mountain Lodge The hotel unites the atmosphere of a mountain chalet with the liberating feeling of a campervan and the functionality of a ship's cabin. All rooms face West toward the water and bring to mind the image of a VW bus: one park at the lake opens the tailgate and feels a sense of freedom. A large wall-to-wall bed and a floor-to-ceiling panorama window with ventilation wings intensify this impression. The rooms are optimized in the space of just 15m². Ceilings, floors, and walls are constructed in modules of natural, unfinished plywood – supports, room dividers and interior finishing all in one.  © Marc Lins A double-walled effect is created by arranging the rooms next to each other which also provides improved acoustic isolation. The bathroom is installed in a multi-functional box. The readymade, fully-equipped room modules were pre-fabricated allowing for precise workmanship as well as short construction and assembly at the site. Modern technology and unaffected design converge here naturally. This is evident both inside and out. The metal façade of the foundation with a vertical patterned surface, the abstractly arranged window slits and the floor-to-ceiling glazing demonstrate austerity. On the façade of the four floors of rooms, the individual modules are emphasized by way of protruding metal siding, apart from that, the building is clearly a wood construction with vertical slats of rough-cut, untreated larch.  © Marc Lins Living Space in the Modular Design  © Hannes Thalmann  Detail Module  © Hannes Thalmann The standard rooms, each the width of a bed, are optimized in just 15m². There are also four barrier-free and 28 triple-bed rooms. Each cabin is designed as a room-module made of spruce planks which form the supports, space dividers and the interior finishing all in one. The effect of a double-wall is achieved by arranging the rooms next to each other which also provides improved acoustic isolation. The prefabricated modules are suited for this design and offer the distinct advantage of high-quality workmanship, as well as short construction and assembly at the site.  © Marc Lins  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

 © Photographix Text description provided by the architects. HOMES, celebrate LIFE. They celebrate views, geographies, locales, climates… The emotion one feels on arrival at the crest of the site is of liberation, an expanse.  © Photographix The same emotion is distilled through the placement of the 4-ton rock that soars on the prong of a 6-meter cantilever...

 Facade. Image © Zaohui Huang Text description provided by the architects. People often say that life is like a voyage. Then, home must be that only island floating on it. It is the place where you treasure the collectibles discovered, and keep all the joys and tears you have experienced during the voyage. You may also bring back a person who is willing to spend the rest of the life with you. Our designer Thomas Xie was invited to lead his team for a renovation of a one-hundred-year-old house in Guangzhou, in order to achieve the finest home-living experience. In the meantime, he wanted to evoke the family's treasurable memory, as well as to re-narrate the memory in a more lively way.  © Zaohui Huang STORY: Living in a house built 100 years ago  Aerial. Image © Zaohui Huang This is a three-floored house, located in Guangzhou's old CBD, and it is a classic townhouse right next to a street, which results in a narrow shape. In addition, because of the inappropriate setting of the windows, neither natural wind nor light can easily enter the house, causing a serious problem of darkness and humidity. Consequently, proliferation of termites becomes an issue. Along with the structural problem due to disrepair of the house, these issues have become troubling for the daily livelihood of the family.  Axonometric projections Besides the structural issue, changes in the occupants of the house has made the renovation necessary in order to meet their existing living needs. Decades ago, Mrs. Feng and her husband, as well as their 5 children lived in the house, so it was divided into many individual spaces. Nowadays, only 4 people reside here. Those individual spaces are not only empty, but become boundaries of their home.  © Zaohui Huang Since the functional spaces are scattered, family members are separated in different rooms everyday. For example, Mrs. Feng enjoys having coffee in the small living room on the second floor, while her fourth son likes to stay in his workshop on the top floor and his wife surfs internet in her bedroom. Family members only interact withone another during meal time.Should we break these boundaries?
OPEN: Open the door, remove the boundaries, let the light and people in This is the third residential house project that Thomas Xie has done renovation for since 2015. He insists on the creation of more space for family members' interactions and togetherness through his design. His focus has always been on improving family relationships by utilizing spaces.  © Zaohui Huang "In addition to the basic functions, maybe we should consider the intimacy of a family."Based on the structure of the house and the situation of the family, the designer has introduced the concept of 'the boundaryless'  1F plan The house originally consisted of a principal room and an ell, which are separated by a solid wall. Therefore, the designer decided to connect these two sections by removing the load-bearing wall and rebuilding the steel structure, in order to change the entire floor plan.  © Zaohui Huang The second step is to design a Core Tube, which combines the main movement line of the family (stairs + elevator), and to re-arrange the scattered spaces. The use of Core Tube can make each room in the house interconnected.  © Zaohui Huang After removing all the nonfunctional boundaries and re-arranging the whole floor plan, residents will be able to walk freely and have interactions with each other in the house. Furthermore, by utilizing the front and backyard, skylight and open space, more sunlight can shine in the house. Ventilation and lighting issues are then solved. Both people and sunlight can interact in the house.  © Zaohui Huang LIVING: A forest in city, a home without boundary 1. Multi-functional living room without barriers  2F plan The design of kitchen has combined both Chinese and Western style. By moving the boards hung above, it can be turned into a closed Chinese kitchen, or a open Western kitchen. The kitchen bench can be extended to outdoor garden. When it is sunny, the family can enjoy coffee, looking at the plants without the need to walk outside.
2. A memorial room with staggered floors  © Zaohui Huang "More importantly, this house is used to commemorate our father", Mrs. Feng's son has expressed this demand to the designer." Therefore, between the second and the third floor, the designer has created a room with staggered floors specifically for leisure and cultural activities, to commemorate the father, as well as the precious memory and heritage he left for the family.The family members can gather together in this space, to watch their old videos using a projector, to appreciate their father's paintings and to talk about those interesting old stories.  © Zaohui Huang 3. Bedrooms that face each other  the study has different functions. Image © Zaohui Huang Considering that Mrs. Feng's grandson has reached the age of marriage, there will be a need for space for more family members. His own space is located on the third floor. There are a separate bathroom and a guest bedroom next to his room. Both rooms' doors can be opened in both directions in order to combine them as one.  the grandson's bedroom on the third floor. Image © Zaohui Huang 4. large cavity and small lacuna The Core Tube combining stairs and elevators is the only linkage among spaces in the house. A number of small lacunas are designed in each hallway, which create a vivid scene that allows residents to find some surprises or to explore the space while they are walking indoor.  © Zaohui Huang 5. Afforested outdoor garden and workshop  © Zaohui Huang More areas for plants are designed in the rooftop garden. The old mottled walls and green pots together will provide an interesting view. In this busy city, the family has its own little green world.  © Zaohui Huang RENOVATED: Light of old pieces, renovation of 'grandfather-generation' furniture Not only is this house from last century, the furniture within are very precious "grandfather-generation oversees returnees". They were acquired in the Republic of China era. Some of them are imported overseas. They are the most mentioned and treasured items by Mrs. Feng, as they have recorded so much significant memory of this family.  © Zaohui Huang 27 pieces were selected and given to experienced furniture masters for handcrafted renovation. By doing this, the designer wishes that these furniture can have a fresh start and spend another century with the family.  © Zaohui Huang  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Aedas' Latest Mixed-Use Development Creates a City Inspired by 'The Cloud' Posted: 25 Mar 2018 09:00 AM PDT  Courtesy of Aedas Aedas' latest project is inspired by the tech cloud as a platform to boast connectivity within the mixed-use development and enable maximum productivity between the zones. Vanke Tianfu Cloud City will be within the new development zone in Chengdu, China designated for new hi-tech and sci-tech industries and provide offices, exhibition, residential and retail facilities.  Courtesy of Aedas Integrating greenery into the project was important for Aedas; across the four land plots of the development, they have designed a 54,000 square meter central green axis that will offer a park-like experience for pedestrians and terraced facades that will benefit from the expansive, green-filled balconies with panoramic views of the nearby Xinglong Lake. The project will also adopt green roofs and sky gardens to improve sustainability and reduce heat gain and cooling load, mitigating the heat island effect. The masterplan has been carefully considered to profit from the future subway lines and station nearby, with multiple underground entrances to parking to increase accessibility. As well as the development's access, the residential and retail facilities will be located at the southern-most plot of land close to the residential districts and schools whilst the Grade-A office, eco-office, SOHO towers, hotel and exhibition venues are planned to occupy the three plots towards the north.

| Campervan Breaks World Record for Largest Indoor 3D Print Posted: 25 Mar 2018 07:00 AM PDT  Courtesy of Create Cafe 3D Print 3D printing just got a whole lot more impressive. If we weren't already enthralled by the bridges, homeless shelters and structural components that have been made possible through 3D printing, a Canadian team have managed to print the world's first 3D printed campervan that beats records for the largest indoor 3D print ever – three times larger than the previous record holder. Made from hundreds of feet of plastic filament, the seamless camper measures 13 feet long and six feet wide and took over 230 hours to build on their custom ErectorBot 3D printer. The 3D-printer experts at Create Café in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan responsible for the trailer recorded the progress throughout the nine-day job. Despite having to tackle the high temperatures whilst it printed throughout night and day, and an unexpected software reboot, they were able to successfully print the 600-pound object and are hoping to develop larger versions including a 16 -oot and 19-foot truck bed models.  Courtesy of Create Cafe 3D Print Unlike traditionally manufactured campervans, "The Wave" won't leak and doesn't require a chassis. The trailer is yet to be fitted with appliances, electronics, and windows but will be available to purchase by the end of the year and customized to suit your every need, for instance, the team have designed the trailer to convert into an ice fishing cabin. Currently, they are researching ways to reduce vibrations during the print so that they can get the print time down to under a week.

 © Juan Solano Ojasí BORED HOUSE The project starts by understanding family relationships FORMED BY three different generations. Through long conversations, they transmit family dynamics as part of their "memory", but above all, of their longings and desires. The proposal must cover all of them foreseeing new forms of occupation and unexpected relationships.  © Juan Solano Ojasí The reduced lot and between dividing walls is located in a mono-functional residential district of Lima consolidated several decades ago, but in a changing process as many areas of the city. We concentrate the volume in the middle of the lot, discounting previous and subsequent withdrawals of a strict regulation. These withdrawals allow us to establish future location relationships with the environment that does not currently have much wealth, but is in constant mutation.  Section Thus, we trace the volume reducibility to a simple and primary cubic entity occupying the maximum allowed and available lot. This lot has 300 square meters and the program amounts to 750 meters. The functions for rest and services are concentrated in the perimeter areas of the first, second and third floors, allowing to trace the boundaries with the street through a controlled opacity in the facades  © Juan Solano Ojasí The spaces for collective family gatherings are located towards the inside, through spatial sequences: voids that are superimposed in the direction of the sky through all the levels of the project, so that in each space the presence of the other and the relationships are experienced through spaces in movement. In these, there are no established certainties they can change, mutate or redefine.  Isometric We understand this spatial continuity as the possibility of erasing boundaries, as an operation that allows a symbiosis between the interior and exterior, so that its inhabitants can define and redefine their spiritual and physical state. Thus, it will be possible to discover that maybe intimacy does not mean loneliness or being apart, and that collective life can sometimes require a state of intimacy as well.  © Juan Solano Ojasí The applicability of concrete, whose formwork leaves a deep impression on the material, allows a reading that mutates according to the shadows depending on the sunpath. Intermediate spaces with the street, meaning balconies, are treated with another materiality, such as a trace left by subtracting the volume, by using wood.  © Juan Solano Ojasí  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| MAD Architects' Harbin Opera House Through the Lens of Andres Gallardo Posted: 25 Mar 2018 02:30 AM PDT  © Andres Gallardo Andres Gallardo, a self-taught photographer from Spain, captures the poetry and theatricality of MAD Architects' Harbin Opera House in a series of photos which display the building's undulating interiors and the sense of ethereal calm it takes on through the night—and through the snowstorm that took place between Gallardo's two photoshoots. A winner of ArchDaily's Building of the Year Awards in 2016, the Harbin Opera House is inspired by the frozen wilderness of its surrounds and is saturated in local identity, culture, and art. The sculpted forms seem to grow and emerge from the snow, leading one into its poetic stillness within. Gallardo's photo series highlights the beauty in its stillness, as if the serpentine forms of the architecture have been frozen in time and are waiting to move once more.  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  © Andres Gallardo  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

 © Double Space Photography Text description provided by the architects. The Farm is a vacation home located adjacent to a large conservation forest and agricultural area, an hour outside of Toronto, Canada. The property's classic pastoral landscape made the relationship between the architecture and the site the central design focus. Located on a dead-end gravel road, the house is situated at the top of a low ridge, looking out over the site's rolling meadows, pond and woodlot to encourage contact with the landscape.  © Double Space Photography  Ground Floor Plan  © Double Space Photography Intended as a place to gather family and friends, the house sits at grade to encourage circulation between the inside and outside. Common and private areas spill out onto large patios through oversized sliding doors and then gradually into the landscape by way of terraced lawn. The dining room is flanked by pocketing, sliding glass doors, creating a breezeway effect as well as a covered outdoor patio. Kitchen, living and service areas separate bedrooms to provide privacy from other guests while maintaining the connection to outside.  © Double Space Photography Oversized, toothsome shapes and materials like the use of a rich, modular sofa in front of the low, linear fireplace and beside large openings to the outside encourage those in the space to sink in and relax. A more private experience is found in the north-lit, studio where guests can watch the meadows from above.  © Double Space Photography  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Which Architecture Firms Are Building the Most in New York City? Posted: 25 Mar 2018 01:00 AM PDT  Courtesy of Related-Oxford In an industry-affiliated overshadowed by the so-called 'starchitects', do we really know who is dominating in the field of architecture? Often it is found that for most of the projects bearing the big names, there are the firms assuming the roles of "executive architect" that work behind the scenes to enable the high-profile buildings to get through planning and construction. To give us insight into which architecture practices actually have the most impact across in New York City, The Real Deal have compiled a list of the 30 firms with the highest square footage of new buildings across the five boroughs over a six-year period from the 1st of January 2012 until the 31st of January 2018. There are of course many of the firms that you would expect, although as you will see there are also a few that have gone under the radar so far and may be worth watching out for in the future...
