MAD Breaks Ground on Museum of Migration in Rotterdam

MAD Architects has broken ground on the firm's first cultural project in Europe, the FENIX Museum of Migration in Rotterdam. Commissioned by the Droom en Daad Foundation, the project builds on the history of the Fenix warehouse, once the largest warehouse in the world.

São Paulo has a vibrant nightlife, either by nature or due to the lack of other attractions, offering as many possibilities as its population of more than 12 million people. Therefore, bars have become the favorite spots for residents from all over the city, living in the east, west, north, and south.

We have selected a few projects of bars already published in ArchDaily that represent a sample of this bohemian architecture that so many inhabitants of São Paulo are used to – an architecture that is all about remodeling, socializing, gathering, and bonding in intimate spaces.

Alexis Dornier on Architectural Experimentation and his New Venture, Stilt Studios

Posted: 15 Nov 2020 08:00 PM PST

"It all started with the question: What if I'm going to build my own house?" It was this consideration that prompted Alexis Dornier to note that when he's providing architectural design service he's mostly catering, filtering and catalyzing input from other people that have budgets, preferences and tastes and it's up to him to channel or organize that and let it "stream through" him. Using his craft to put it in order. "But what if you did not have that other hand [designer's help]? What would you do?"

Archdaily's Hana Abdel, projects curator, sat down with Alexis Dornier to discuss his latest venture as co-founder of Stilt Studios, a company "focused on making Architectural design accessible to a greater audience of people. People who wouldn't be able to afford an architect or don't want to go through the trouble of working with an architect. So, what if we could create a product, or an architecture that almost works as a product."

There are plenty of books about the buildings of late American architect Louis I. Kahn, including those he authored. But his drawings hold a special fascination for his peers and fans, which explains why the blog Designers and Books is launching a Kickstarter to fund the reissue of one 1962 compilation of his sketches, which has been out of print for decades.

Imagining a New Perspective: Get Inspired by Living with Sky-Frame Video Story

Posted: 15 Nov 2020 05:30 PM PST

With Sky-Frame, the focus is what inspiration and freedom their windows can help achieve, not on the windows themselves. Rather, the spatial qualities and view potential created by the windows is what you notice. The Swiss company is the leading international supplier of frameless sliding doors that work to blend interior and exterior for a unique living experience. Featured in thousands of projects worldwide, Sky-Frame products include curved and sloped sliding doors, as well as a pivot door, to fit each individual space.
