| How to Design for Optimal Thermal Comfort (And Why it Matters) Posted: 30 Jan 2019 08:00 PM PST  ZEB Pilot House - Pilot Project / Snøhetta. Image © Bruce Damonte Have you ever found yourself losing a good night's sleep due to an overly warm room? Or wearing four jackets and a scarf just to tolerate your office's frigid air conditioning? Truth be told, you can't please everyone when it comes to adjusting an indoor climate, and there is always that one unfortunate individual who ends up sacrificing their own comfort for the sake of others. Evidently, there are no 'universal standards' or 'recommended comfort ranges' in designing building systems, since athletes training in a gym in Mexico will not feel comfortable in an interior with the same building systems of a nursing home in Denmark, for instance. Which is why, if we were to briefly define 'thermal comfort', it is the creation of building systems that are adapted to the local environment and functions of the space, cooperatively. So how can we design for optimum thermal comfort?  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| Ghilardi+Hellsten and Karres en Brands to Design Norway's New Stavanger Cultural Hub Posted: 30 Jan 2019 05:00 AM PST  Stavanger Cultural Hub. Image Courtesy of Ghilardi Hellsten, Karres en Brands, PIKS Ghilardi+Hellsten and Karres en Brands have won the competition to design Norway's new Stavanger cultural hub. Dubbed 'Three Houses and a Long Table', the project will transform the historical Nytorget site in Stavanger. The design combines a youth cultural center, offices, shops and an art gallery around a multi-functional green space. The proposal aims to build upon the qualities with a design that's anchored in the city fabric around public space.  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| Safdie Architects design a Series of Treehouse-Like Pavilions for Surbana Jurong Headquarters Posted: 30 Jan 2019 03:00 AM PST  © Safdie Architects Safdie Architects have unveiled details of their proposed corporate headquarters for Surbana Jurong in Singapore. The scheme seeks to reflect the mission of Surbana Jurong (Singapore's leading architecture, urban design, and infrastructure firm) of characterizing Singapore as the "Garden City." Located on a previously undeveloped site, the campus will "integrate harmoniously with its natural landscape" while also offering over 740,000 square feet of space for the firm's 4000 employees. The scheme manifests as a series of treehouse-like pavilions united by a central pedestrian "street," all shaped by a careful examination of, and respect for, the site's existing trees and unique flora. The result is a distinctive network of offices embedded within surrounding parkland, with the glazed pedestrian street interweaving interior and exterior landscapes.

The 775-room, 79-bathroom, 828,821 square foot residence has been home to Britain's royalty since the 1830s. And, if Opposite Office's recent Affordable Palace proposal were to go through, could also be home to you.  This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
