 © José Ramón Oller  Plan / Elevation Text description provided by the architects. This architectural intervention on the top of a rationalist building dating back to 1936 is an attempt at updating a two-bedroom home from a series of underlying elements and restrictions befitting a long-established building.  © José Ramón Oller We projected a light metallic structure that would not exert excessive weight on the roof covering. We also built dry envelopes, pavements and partition walls, as well as a new covering consisting of light prefabricated panels. Similarly, adaptation to preexisting systems suggested that the damp streak lodging the toilets be placed near the patios, thus reducing the layout and allowing for a rational distribution. The sun path, however, prompted a generous laying out of openings facing the rising sun that brighten the common spaces and the terrace overlooking the city, the sea and the Anaga Mountains at sunrise.  © José Ramón Oller The new volume overlooks Calle Robayna like a discreetly expressive visor whose flight enables a balancing of the light structure’s efforts. It faces the street in the guise of a finish aspiring to fit harmoniously with the original building; and it provides a clean piece that is guided by an economy of means and by the choice of a restrained material palette.

 © Michal Vršanský, Lubo Stacho Text description provided by the architects. During the process of reconstruction and extension of the residential building Mýtna 25, originally built as three storeyed object with unused attic space, it's volume was heightened by additional three floors, including the attic. Two upper storeys are supressed from the Mýtna street in order to create a terrace space. Despite of the plane of the facade from the street maintain it's previous, unchanged shape from the pedestrian point of the view.  © Michal Vršanský, Lubo Stacho Vertical sunshading system of the newly constructed floors which creates regular pattern redefine the original roof plane as a new, pure architectural element respecting the original architecture of the building, which was reconstructed with conservative approach.  Section Design solution is based on the contrast of the previous, historical form and the newly built volume, with the strict definition of the dividing line represented by the horizontal of the main cornice from the view of Mýtna street and from the backyard view by the vertical created by the elevator shaft and extended console of the added levels.  © Michal Vršanský, Lubo Stacho  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

 © Mariela Apollonio Text description provided by the architects. A house facing the Mediterranean and the River Algar ...  © Mariela Apollonio  Diagram The idea is to create a diaphanous but convertible space where moments dedicated to private and public can be regularly available to its owner.  © Mariela Apollonio This requires an only centerpiece storage structure that organizes public and private space. The other parts that serve the house (kitchen, toilets, etc ...) are "assembled" with the main piece to complete a "mechanism volumes" through which it circulates and whose relationship to each other configures the living spaces (1 bedroom suite, a multifunctional space, living room ...)  Diagram A system of hidden wood panels deployed and collected to set different levels of privacy: a continuous and fluid space when the panels are open, or space compartmentalized in different rooms when closed.  © Mariela Apollonio The transition from "public" to "private" is done through thresholds that compress space. Through them it is where white and bright parts become intimate spaces built in oak. These thresholds, in certain stress points, are broken up into wooden slats that frame the visual sought. It is especially important threshold of space that frames the landscape outside, which extends to the ground as an exhibitor and storage.  © Mariela Apollonio A subtle vertical lines carved in wood accompanies the entire house giving her rhythm and texture.  © Mariela Apollonio  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

 © David Grandorge Text description provided by the architects. A small, dilapidated outbuilding, originally used to house livestock, has been renovated to provide a one-room private studio space within a linear village on the southern edge of the North Yorkshire Moors national park.  Axonometric The existing walls, window and door openings of the building have been retained, their modesty disguising the transformed character of the interior space. Inside, a concrete column, located off centre within the room, supports one corner of a mezzanine deck, and rises to prop the ridge beam part way along its span. The quarry tiles of the floor rotate around the base of the column. To the rear of the space sits a line of built-in bookshelves, above it, a large new rooflight.  © David Grandorge The project was completed by a father and son team of builders from the neighbouring village. The father, a mason, repaired the existing monolithic stone walls that were then lime-washed. The son, a joiner, completed all the joinery in Douglas fir, including the new roof structure and lining, the windows and door, the mezzanine deck and the line of book shelves. The two of them worked together to construct the large concrete column.  © David Grandorge Through this close linkage between the construction and design of the building there is a natural simplicity to the internal space. Here, the reduced palette of materials, and abundant north light, provide the context for the spatial and symbolic play of structure around the central post.

 © Phahonchai Premjai "Bann Loy Lom", personal private house, located at "Bann Rai Tho Si" Village in Pak Chong, Nakorn Rachasima Province. This village has calm atmosphere, large shared common area and also big road under big trees cover. Every house in village has some designed limitations such as gap of building to fence, height of building, color of building and etc that will not disturb the village overall view. Apart from that here is also the place for practicing the dharma. Dharma pavilion is sharing area for dharma activities that would happen often during Buddhist holiday and common holiday.  Plans  © Phahonchai Premjai Here is used as second home for relaxing on holiday time. The owner likes to live simple, like to live close to the nature and good ventilation. Also the owner likes practicing dharma, therefore the common area like place for practicing dharma, talking dharma, doing walk-meditation are very important area apart from bed room, bathroom and kitchen for this house.  © Phahonchai Premjai Therefore "Bann Loy Lom" was designed accordingly to the owner lifestyle. "Bann" is home. "Loy" is lifting the ground floor of house like Traditional Thai House but it is lifted to the level of parking area from the front of house so external look the house will be looked like normal one floor house but actually underneath can use of walk-meditation. "Lom" means wind, good ventilation is required in every spot of house so the wind channel, house plan, wall form are designed to make the owner feel comfortable in wherever he walk through. Wherever the outer peace happened the inner peace will be there, "Bann Loy Lom".  Axonometric  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

 Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. Text description provided by the architects. A bright grotto – a contemporary abstraction of nature – to refresh shoppers amidst delicate garments and dazzling commodities, is our design concept for this underground toilet.  Sustainable Toilet Situated in the commercial center of Guangzhou China, the TaiKoo Hui is a mixed use complex incorporating a shopping mall, two Grade-A office towers, a hotel, and serviced apartment. The shopping mall receives tens of thousands of visitors daily, and its amenity facilities require an upgrade. The sustainable design toilet aims to raise the environmental awareness in the public realm and to become the role model of sustainability in the commercial & retail sector. The design aims to tie back to nature, formally as well as environmentally. Sustainability, spatial sculpting and human comfort drive the whole design.  Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. Minimum alterations are made to the original efficient layout, to minimize structural and piping alteration. It consists of three corridors of cubicles, washbasins & urinals. Wall furring was removed, the 'found' round and tilted square columns are painted to form a homogenous white mass to engage the space with unique shape and angle that hint the underlining structures.  Baby Caring & Children's Toilet White and 'cyclorama' setting is applied to give a bright and clean ambient – walls join the ceiling seamlessly and smoothly with curved surfaces, to diffuse light for plants to duo-function as general lighting. Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum (GRG) panels are used to form the curved surfaces, for their durability and use of recycled materials. The curved edges also eliminate possible dark, dirty edges.  Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. Indoor plants are grown to purify air, raise indoor oxygen level, and add life and colors of nature. The plants are grown above human level for better management and tidiness. Pots are hidden inside the GRG furring, to enable the plants to form pure strokes of green. Irrigation utilizes grey water collected from the wash basins, supported by a local filtration system.  Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. The floor is a newly-casted dark grey terrazzo stone. Here the original sandstone and grey tiles are crushed as aggregates for the new terrazzo, forming unique silver grey chips to reveal the idea of recycle. The new washbasin counter is an all-in-one station. The white corian counter curves up to join the LED lighting strip, mirror and ceiling as one integral piece, with a tree-shaped icon echoing to its collection of grey water for irrigation. An integrated water tap cum hand dryer product is installed for sustainability and cleanness: it avoids dripping water on counter-top and floor, saves spaces and paper towels.  Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. Waterless urinal, water-saving water-closet & vacuum toilet are applied to save water usage by 80%, and reduce waste volume by 60% on a daily basis. Two fans are added to enhance fresh air movement, to replace mechanical cooling in winter and to reduce the cooling load in summer. The baby care rooms are also upgraded with improved facilities and a playful design. The original layout is given minimum alterations to allow for a seating area and an additional baby care room, the resulted kinked passage and simplified arches continue the 'grotto' idea.  Courtesy of Ida&Billy Architects Ltd. Within this white grotto are rooms of patterns, each consists of a simple geometry or theme, and led through arched openings of varying heights – higher ones for the baby care room, and lower ones for the children toilets.

| 8 Beautiful Belgian Houses: The Expert on Ugly Belgian Houses Weighs In Posted: 20 Jul 2018 12:00 PM PDT
Sometimes an architect's best intentions get lost along the way. Sometimes they get value-engineered out; sometimes they were never really there to begin with. That's where Ugly Belgian Houses comes in. The blog, run by discerning Belgian Hannes Coudenys, documents some of his home country's architectural misadventures - all with a sense of humor, of course! 1. House CR / dmvA House CR / dmvA.

| Arkles Bay Residence / Creative Arch Posted: 20 Jul 2018 12:00 PM PDT  © Andy Chui
 © Simon Devitt Text description provided by the architects. This home in Whangaparaoa is nestled amongst the branches of protected Pohutukawa, looking through greenery to the Wade River as it flows into Arkles Bay. The brief for this project involved a new four-bedroom home, with complete privacy from the street and maximum views over the water. The decision to craft the angular forms of this home answers both of these requirements with a distinctive architectural resolution.  Ground Floor Plan  © Andy Chui Fulfilling this purpose, vertical metal cladding wraps up and over an enigmatic angular form that sits close to a cliff edge. From the street, glimpses of glazing, living areas, vertical cedar cladding and low-maintenance bagged masonry can be seen from oblique angles. However, the visual impact of the metal cladding cutting through the center of the site draws the eye and provides a sense of the mysterious. The building effortlessly transitions between story heights, anchoring down to the street while opening up to panoramic clifftop views.  © Simon Devitt To the rear of the site, façades are softened with the careful combination of materials and forms, with generous glazing looking out to the bay. A number of outdoor living areas are apportioned along three edges of the home. These are screened and sheltered to provide protection against prevailing and unpredictable winds.  © Simon Devitt The angular roof form ties a single story garage to the first-floor bedroom and living spaces, folding gently over the rectangular south-eastern façade. A central stairwell framed by double-height glazing works in tandem with an aligned skylight and void, creating a light well through the heart of the home over an interior garden.  © Simon Devitt  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Meeting House Square Rainscreen / Sean Harrington Architects Posted: 20 Jul 2018 10:00 AM PDT  Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects
 Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects Text description provided by the architects. There is a saying in Ireland that you can have 'four seasons in one day' – from warm spring sunshine to intense summer light, and from lively autumn gales to a sudden wintry shower. Because Irish skies are constantly changing, Seán Harrington Architects was commissioned to design an innovative solution to provide a convertible weather covering over a popular public square in Dublin's Temple Bar area.  Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects The landmark 'Umbrella Project' was recently installed in Dublin's trendy Temple Bar area by Swiss-German manufacturer MDT-Tex, a market leader and innovator in outdoor coverings. The four umbrellas were on a four-day journey from Germany, where they were engineered and manufactured. The bespoke design comprises of a 21-metre high steel structure, which supports an asymmetric tilted umbrella, measuring approximately 11-metres by 14-metres. The closed umbrellas are elegant slim objects of sculptural beauty, with the canopy fabric encapsulated by the umbrella arms, inspired by bulrushes, reaching for the sky. Opening within approximately 7 minutes, the four umbrellas overlap like flowers to provide a continuous cover for Meeting House Square, the heart of outdoor cultural activity in Dublin. Floodlit from above through the translucent Teflon fabric, the square can be atmospherically lit in different colour moods. Audio speakers as well as water and electricity supplies are incorporated for maximum usability.  Plan Extended  Plan Retracted The €2.4 million project was commissioned by Temple Bar Cultural Trust (TBCT), following a public competition, to mark the 20th anniversary of the urban regeneration of Temple Bar, which has won many European awards. Meeting House Square is Dublin's most important public cultural square, hosting a wide-range of outdoor events from organic food markets to open-air theatre, popular film screenings and concerts. In the past, events were (Irish) weather dependent and often subject to cancellation.  Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects Commenting on the design of the Umbrella Project, Dermot McLaughlin, Chief Executive Officer of TBCT said: "Our design objective was to retain the sense of openness and exterior space that characterises Meeting House Square. The structure of the umbrellas was required to harmonize with the existing modern architecture and we are delighted to add Seán Harrington Architects to the list of distinguished architects whose work has defined Meeting House Square."  Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects Seán Harrington remarked "Working in close harmony with MDT, and with solid support from our client, together we have produced an innovative, unique, ambitious, and beautifully engineered solution that will help fulfill the great potential of the this city square, and make it "weather-proof" !  Section 1 Extended Dick Gleeson, Chief Planner of Dublin City Council praised the project: "The wonderful new sculptural columns and dream catcher rainscreen raise the spirit of the City and embody Dublin's commitment to innovation and to be a prototyping and trialing city"  Courtesy of Sean Harrington Architects  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| An Architectural Guide to Nantes: The French City of Weird and Wonderful Art Posted: 20 Jul 2018 09:30 AM PDT  Chateau des Ducs de Bretagne featuring Paysage Glisse by Tact Architectes and Tangui Robert. Image © LVAN Situated in the Loire region of France, Nantes could be regarded as a "tale of two cities" from many angles. Once a bustling node for European shipping, former vast, industrial warehouses have become a hotbed of cultural and artistic expression. Meanwhile, divided by the Loire river flowing towards the Atlantic, a maze of Haussmann-style terraces, ornate cathedrals, and monumental museums sit in contrast to an island of outlandish mechanical contraptions, and young, modern, free-spirited innovation. The sheer variety of artistic and architectural wonders alone make Nantes a destination for architects and designers. Merged with culinary excellence, highly-instagrammable hotels, and a determination by public and private officials to maintain and expand on the city's vibrant, playful design scene, and Nantes becomes a must-see, undiscovered architectural gem. What follows in an architectural guide to Nantes, written off the back of a recent visit to the French city. Documented at a time when the excitement of France's impending World Cup victory added to the buzz of the city's streets, plazas, and bars, the city remains a constant hotbed of art and design. From what to know before you go, where to stay, where to eat, and what to do, the buildings and events mentioned here only scratch the surface of what can be appreciated. The Basics Place Graslin. Image © Niall Patrick Walsh  © Niall Patrick Walsh Situated between Brittany and the Loire Valley, the city of Nantes has a population of 330,000 inhabitants. The Loire river cuts through the center of the city, splitting in two to form an island named "île de Nantes" (Island of Nantes). A former epicenter of shipbuilding and trade, île de Nantes is rapidly becoming a cultural, artistic, playful nirvana, with half of the new inhabitants arriving in Nantes settling there.  Les Machines de L'ile. Image © Niall Patrick Walsh  Misconceivable by Erwin Wurm. Image © Niall Patrick Walsh On the north bank of the Loire river, the old quarter of Nantes contains a maze of Art Nouveau, Haussmann-style terraces, overlooked by the Castle of the Dukes of Brittany.

Image © Niall Patrick Walsh Now ten years old, Les Machines de L'ile is perhaps Nantes' most surreal attraction. Situated on the île de Nantes, Les Machines contains a range of large mechanical structures and moving monuments created by Francois Delaroziere and Pierre Orefice. Most iconic is the Grand Elephant, a 12-meter-high mechanical creature operating since 2007, which patrols the island's core, roaring and spraying water with 50 passengers on its back. The Grand Elephant links to the Carrousel Des Mondes Marins, a 25-meter-high mechanical merry-go-round completed in 2012. The aquatically-themed amusement contains 3 carousels, housing 35 sea creatures, and vessels such as giant squid, flying fish, and storm boats.  Les Machines de L'ile . Image © Niall Patrick Walsh While undeniably outlandish, the structures strike a deep connection with their surroundings, with the mechanical skill, craftsmanship, and ingenuity which once defined Nantes' shipbuilding heritage now translated into highly-engineered, triumphant amusements.

| La Solana House / HGR Arquitectos + DIANA ARNAU Posted: 20 Jul 2018 08:00 AM PDT  © Diana Arnau
 © Diana Arnau Text description provided by the architects. La Solana consists of a renovation and extention of a house built in the 60's by Oscar and Eduardo Hagerman. The house is located on an exclusive area overlooking the Acapulco bay.  © Diana Arnau The house is set on a 1210 sqm rocky, sloping ground. It has 5 bedrooms, each of them with closets, bathroom and terrace, a family room, kitchen, living room, dinning room, pool, outdoor bar and parking for 3 cars, with a total consruction of 1050 sqm, divided into 3 levels that adjust to the topography.  Plan The project consists of 3 volumes. The first, upper volume, is the access and parking. Going down the stairs you reach the second volume, with 2 levels. On the upper level and through a private terrace you have the main bedroom, The lower level has 2 mirrored bedrooms, wich you enter through a deck terrace/corridor. At the end of the terrace you reach the family room, a more closed space with a TV room, dinning table, kitchenette and bathroom.  © Diana Arnau Descending half a level you find the third volume. On the upper floor you have the main living/dinning room completely opened, and the kitchen. Below this space there are 2 more rooms with their respective terrace and private garden.  © Diana Arnau The room's façade is made of glass doors to take advantage of the views to the bay. A wooden courtain was placed in front of the windows to give those rooms privacy. The courtain folds depending on the light and privacy the user wants. The courtain also evoques the courtains the original house had, commonly used in Acapulco houses on the 60's. The fixed furniture such as beds and closets were designed to integrate with each space.  © Diana Arnau The main living/dinning room has the least changes, to maintain some of the original escence. Glass railings were instaled to open the views to the ocean. The stairs and structural walls are made of stone collected from the site, and the new structure is composed of circular steel columns.  © Diana Arnau The vegetation of the place remained untouched, it provides shadow to the house and keeps the temperature cool. New vegetation was planted to give greener views and more privacy.  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| ‘Allende’ Performance Hall and Rehearsal Studios / Dominique Coulon & associés Posted: 20 Jul 2018 06:00 AM PDT  © Eugeni Pons
 © Eugeni Pons Text description provided by the architects. Set in the orthonormal organisation of the town of Mons-en-Barœul, the cultural centre pivots, the better to look at the town hall. The building gains in autonomy and becomes an urban landmark. It contains three music studios, one 500‑seat modular auditorium, a bar, an exhibition gallery, and a large rehearsal room.  Diagram  First Floor Plan The pivoting of the volume of the large rehearsal room creates a large empty space on the inside that connects with the other elements of the project. The geometrical conflict generated by this pivoting is revealed by the triangular shape the empty space creates. In association with the diagonal lines of the staircase, the walls bend in an upward movement.  © Eugeni Pons The black lacquered surfaces render perception of the space more complex. Right at the top, the light brought in by the white ceiling gives it the appearance of a starry sky. The spaces are gathered around this strange heart, which may be read as some kind of interior dislocation. The spatial instability generated by the folds and reflections lends a strange atmosphere to the whole.  © Eugeni Pons The retractable tiered seating that covers two-thirds of the auditorium allows for a wide range of uses. The grid extends beyond the footprint of the stage, allowing a wide range of stage configurations. Acoustic scenario. General arrangements.  © Eugeni Pons  © Eugeni Pons With an administrative centre reduced to a strict minimum, the areas devoted to different types of musical practice occupy the entire building. The bar and the gallery blend into the space occupied by the hall, adding a generous aspect to the project.  © Eugeni Pons  © Eugeni Pons The external envelope has a rather rough appearance. The grey concrete presents two levels of finish: some of the surfaces are in rough concrete, while others are polished. The addition of crushed mirror to the concrete aggregates gives the facade a magical sparkle, depending on the light conditions.  © Eugeni Pons The project derives its quintessence from its context. Its simple volumes make no attempt to compete with the surrounding high-rise buildings. By emancipating itself from the urban geometry, it highlights its humble singularity. All in all, the building is not a competitor; it seeks to transcend the ages.  © David Romero-Uzeda  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

Small Project ArchitectureWinner: School-in-a-Box, Papua New Guinea / Stephen Collier Architects  School-in-a-Box, Papua New Guinea / Stephen Collier Architects. Image © Stephen Collier via Australian Institute of Architects The architects have responded to the challenges of the Papua New Guinea environment by creating an easily transportable pod or box, the contents of which create a pop-up school. Responding to the needs of people who have very little, the box includes a tent for shelter that allows for rainwater to be collected, solar panels to power laptops and a printer and plywood joinery for sitting and working. The school in a box is an exemplar of how simple, thoughtful and useful design can positively influence communities and the environment, and have an influence way beyond an intended purpose.

| Rhizomatic Grid | TERMINAL 7 / Estudio Guto Requena Posted: 20 Jul 2018 04:00 AM PDT  © Pierre L'Excellent
 © Pierre L'Excellent Text description provided by the architects. The design for the Terminal 7 club in Paris was developed by Estudio Guto Requena as a digital dreamlike environment—an invitation for people to leave their concerns outside and give way to dream and escapism.  © Pierre L'Excellent  Plan  © Pierre L'Excellent To do this we created a grand interactive sculpture that occupies the entire dance floor. It was inspired by the idea of planting five seeds that grow into five large trees that join their branches overhead. The structure was designed using parametric modeling (computer generated form) that simulates the growth of trees. The result is a rhizomatic grid that shelters visitors within. This metallic grid is illuminated with the endless combinations of colors and optical effect of LED lights allowing flexibility of use that transforms the space according to different needs.  © Pierre L'Excellent  © Pierre L'Excellent Beyond mesmerizing the audience, the Rhizomatic Grid frames panoramic views of Paris and the Eiffel Tower and brings this incredible setting into the club. This project is another offshoot of research at Estudio Guto Requena into the use of new interactive technologies that create immersive environments and bridge the digital and the emotional.  © Pierre L'Excellent  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| What's the Difference Between a B.Arch and M.Arch Degree? Posted: 20 Jul 2018 02:30 AM PDT .jpg?1531492981 "<a href=\"https://www.archdaily.com/179854/milstein-hall-at-cornell-university-oma-2\">Milstein Hall, at Cornell University's College of Architecture, designed by OMA</a>.

Image © Matthew Carbone The process of becoming an architect can be as confusing as it is extensive. In this article, we'll demystify a crucial component of the path to a career in architecture: what degree you should get. Specifically, we'll lay out the difference between two common, somewhat comparable degrees: the B.Arch and the M.Arch.  The 3 main types of degree track available in the USA. Image Image courtesy of <a href="https://studyarchitecture.com/">StudyArchitecture.com</a> Let's start with the B.Arch. In most countries, the Bachelor of Architecture is a five-year, pre-professional undergraduate program that's geared towards students who know they want to be architects—even when they graduate from high school. During the first one to two years, students generally take some non-architecture courses along with some classes that help develop their drafting and rendering skills. The last three years are focused on architecture techniques and building codes. Most B.Arch programs are accredited by the National Architecture Accrediting Board (NAAB) in the United States, the RIBA in the UK, and by other local accreditation boards in many other countries; before you embark on a degree course, you should check which is the relevant body in your country and whether they have accredited the course you are considering. In some countries such as the USA, completing an accredited B.Arch degree qualifies students to take the Architect Registration Examination (ARE), or the equivalent registration exam for that country; in other countries, completing an accredited B.Arch degree automatically qualifies you as an architect; and in some countries such as the UK, the B.Arch is only the first step towards getting licensed. The details of a B.Arch program, and how it fits into the process of becoming an architect, vary from country to country, but the gist is the same everywhere: this is a professional degree that will fast-track you to the architecture profession.  <a href="https://www.archdaily.com/123171/yale-art-architecture-building-gwathmey-siegel-associates-architects">Rudolph Hall at the Yale Art + Architecture Building</a>. Image Courtesy of Gwathmey Siegel and Associates Architects The M.Arch is a post-graduate program (meaning students will require an undergraduate degree to enroll) that likewise prepares students to become registered architects. Usually, the Masters of Architecture degree is offered to people who have completed an undergraduate liberal arts education. Some people entering M.Arch programs will have studied something unrelated to architecture, like English, at their undergraduate institution. Others might have received a B.S. or B.A. in architecture—or even a B.Arch—and choose to attend graduate school to deepen their theoretical understanding of architectural practice. Because students enter M.Arch programs with significantly varied backgrounds, many universities offer multiple tracks within the M.Arch (often differentiated as "M.Arch I" and "M.Arch II"). For students who have completed an undergraduate degree in a subject unrelated to architecture, the M.Arch usually takes three or three and a half years. For students with an undergraduate degree in architecture, many graduate schools offer a two-year M.Arch program—often called a "4+2"—that complements a student's undergraduate architectural education.  <a href="https://www.archdaily.com/892818/mcewen-school-of-architecture-lga-architectural-partners">McEwen School of Architecture, designed by LGA Architectural Partners</a>.

 © Patrick Wong Text description provided by the architects. Piedra Toro is a 8,800 sf, 5-bedroom, 5-bath, spec home commissioned by a longtime collaborating general contractor who wanted a well-designed, contemporary home that could appeal to a wide range of people within a specific market of luxury home buyers.  © Patrick Wong The house is organized to optimize the site's landscape and scenic views while providing maximum privacy. The open and airy floor plan connects inside to outside by creating lines of sight from the living space to both the eastern-facing garden and western negative-edge pool. The more private bedroom suites are located upstairs, away from the public area, and each bedroom boasts its own bathroom and walk-in closet.  © Patrick Wong Materials such as limestone, fiber-cement panels and stucco allow the house to blend with the surrounding landscape while maintaining a distinct modern living ambience on the interior.  © Patrick Wong  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| This Proposed Music Center Honors the Unique Birthplace of Polish Composer Frédéric Chopin Posted: 20 Jul 2018 01:00 AM PDT  © ELEMENT Located in a small village in Poland, this proposed music center honors the birthplace of famous Polish composer and pianist, Frédéric Chopin. Designed by ELEMENT as a part of an international competition, the Chopin Music Center captures the picturesque landscape of endless forests through "leisure and relaxation." The Center integrates with the park through window views of Frédéric Chopin's birth house and the surrounding landscape. The proposed international music center utilizes a combination of natural materials and glazing to create a seamless connection with its site. The existing park can be reached by pathways and bridges near the building, prompting visitors to experience the outdoor area.  © ELEMENT The Concert Hall was designed in collaboration with Arau Acustica. The space has a volume of 7,500 cubic meters and a capacity of 600 audience members and 100 musicians. According to the architects, "The shape of the Hall was designed to provide the best acoustic conditions. The glazed wall behind the scene is emphasizing the beautiful context and allows visitors to have a direct view of the park, which becomes a constantly changing scenery."  © ELEMENT  © ELEMENT The building is divided into three blocks based on function. The central part of the Concert Hall is connected to all necessary functions, as well as a welcoming area with a double-height atrium, a ticket desk, and a cafeteria with leisure spaces. The second block contains the Chamber Hall, including offices and practice rooms, while the third block houses conference, guest, and learning rooms. The three blocks are joined by a glazed corridor which frames the scenery.  © ELEMENT You can view the winning submission by Polish architects Stelmach & Partners here.

| Studio Komma Will Transform Former Dutch Cargo Ships Into Sustainable Homes Posted: 19 Jul 2018 11:30 PM PDT  Courtesy of Studio Komma Adaptive reuse, the process of refashioning a defunct structure for a new purpose, is ubiquitous these days—so much so that hearing a phrase like "converted warehouse" or "repurposed factory" barely causes one to blink an eye. However, a new project from a cohort of Dutch architecture firms highlights the innovative nature of adaptive reuse with a scheme that reimagines disused cargo ships as houses. With their fully intact exterior shells, the ships remind residents and visitors of their industrial, seafaring past.  Courtesy of Studio Komma The collaboration between architecture firms Studio Komma, Studio Kees Marcelis, and landscape architect Buro Poelmans Reesink will bring between six and fourteen defunct ships back to life in a public park, the Marine-doc Estate. The project will entail the reuse of Kempenaar, a Dutch cargo ship that has "reached the end of [its] economic lifespan" on water. Lifted onto land, the maritime relics will now house residences that the architects describe as both "sustainable" and "exclusive." While their reference to sustainability is largely a nod to the environmental benefits of adaptive reuse (which saves energy by avoiding demolition and reducing construction impacts), renders of the project also indicate a ring of solar panels circling a roof deck.  Courtesy of Studio Komma Like many adaptive reuse projects, the Marine-doc Estates' design contrasts an industrial past with a modernized, more luxurious present. As the architects describe, "the design preserves the original style characteristics of the stern, wheelhouse, and foredeck and combines these with sleek geometric shapes to provide aesthetic counterweight." Those sleek geometries include spacious patios that extend from large windows cut out of the side of the boat and a generous roof terrace.  Courtesy of Studio Komma  Courtesy of Studio Komma The Marine-doc Estate project is scheduled to begin implementation this year. Its location has not yet been announced, but the designers say they are working "both nationally and internationally to secure land positions" for similar reuse projects.

| Open Call: The Best Student Design-Build Projects Posted: 19 Jul 2018 11:00 PM PDT  When learning about architecture, there is no replacement for practical experience: seeing how materials can be joined together, how structural elements respond to the stresses placed upon them, or how construction techniques can alter the finished project. For this reason, it is a good idea to give students a chance for some hands-on experience building real structures—something that, due to budgetary constraints and the academic culture of many architecture schools, has sadly been uncommon in the past. However, in recent years, this culture has started to shift, with increasing numbers of architecture schools finding ways for students to be involved in construction projects, from small, temporary interventions and pavilions, to larger permanent buildings. In order to show the excellent work that can be done in an educational context, for the fourth time ArchDaily is calling on students and professors to submit the design-build projects they have completed in the past year. As always, we're teaming up with all of ArchDaily en Español, ArchDaily Brasil, and ArchDaily China, in the hope that we can present the best work from students worldwide to a worldwide audience. Read on to find out how you can take part. Please use the form below to submit a Google Drive Folder containing images and a brief description of your project. Submissions close on Monday, July 23th at 12:00 pm ET. Rules:
