New Interiors: Hotels Elevating Hospitality Design for Travel

Posted: 17 Mar 2022 12:30 AM PDT

Hotels are a hub for commerce, transportation and culture. Today, interior designers are redefining hospitality spaces to accommodate new forms of travel, communication and rest. From historic renovations to contemporary ground-up hotels, these projects center around leisure and memorable guest experiences. In turn, they express brand identity to rethink what interior design and hospitality will be in the future.

Although computational design as a technique applied in the architectural field has been around for two decades, the infinite possibilities it presents are only just being discovered. The horizons of designing using programming software are expanding alongside the growing popularity of tools like Rhino 3D and Revit. What aspiring architects will hereon have to be mindful of as they train themselves for the industry is that computational design software is not to be treated as a 'to-do item' to be ticked off for only adding to one's résumé. Rather, it's an opportunity to delve deeper into one's creative instincts.

BIG Unveils "First of its Kind" Center for Neuroscience and Psychiatrics in Denmark

Posted: 16 Mar 2022 11:30 PM PDT

Bjarke Ingels Group has unveiled the design of a new Neuroscience Center building that will bring together psychiatry and neuroscience under one roof, combining research and treatment of physical and mental brain diseases, spinal cord, and nervous systems. The 20,000 sqm facility, which will be a part of the Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark, translates the "gyrification of the human brain" in a spatially-efficient structure that creates synergies between the different disciplines within the hospital.

Construction Advances on OMA's Simone-Veil Bridge in Bordeaux

Posted: 16 Mar 2022 10:30 PM PDT

Construction is underway for OMA's Simone-Veil Bridge in Bordeaux, with the first elements of the metal framework installed on the right bank of the Garonne river. Spanning 548 metres, the sixth bridge across the Garonne will connect the municipalities Floirac and Bègles and provide the city with a new public space, thus framing the bridge as a contemporary boulevard. Designed as a continuous surface extended to landscaped public spaces on each bank, the 44-metre bridge will accommodate cars, public transport, bicycles, with the largest surface dedicated to pedestrians. When completed, the project will become the first bridge in OMA's body of work.

St Patrick’s Day: Contemporary Irish Architecture by 7 Practices

March is the month in which St Patrick's Day is celebrated, a tribute to the patron saint of Ireland who died on March 17, 461. In addition to the religious celebration, St Patrick's Day is marked by great parties in the streets, bars and pubs of English colonized countries such as Canada, the United States and, of course, the Republic of Ireland.

The Republic of Ireland is located on the Island of Ireland, northwest of Continental Europe and borders Northern Ireland, one of the countries that make up the United Kingdom, from which it gained independence at the beginning of the 20th century, in 1919, after an intense conflict. Since the War of Independence, the country has struggled to value and recognize its local culture, including its architecture, whether historical or contemporary. Get to know a little more about the country's architecture through the work of the seven contemporary practices gathered below.

Francis Kéré: "I Draw on Paper, but I Prefer to Draw on the Ground"

Posted: 16 Mar 2022 09:30 PM PDT

"I Draw on Paper, but I Prefer to Draw on the Ground". This phrase caught my eye during Diébédo Francis Kéré's speech at the AAICO (Architecture and Art International Congress), which took place in Porto, Portugal from September 3 to 8, 2018. After being introduced by none other than Eduardo Souto de Moura, Kéré began his speech with the simplicity and humility that guides his work. His best-known works were built in remote places, where materials are scarce and the workforce is of the residents themselves, using local resources and techniques.

10 Architecture and Design Books to Add to your Spring Reading List

Posted: 16 Mar 2022 08:30 PM PDT

Around the two-year anniversary of the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is little that looks the same as it did in March 2020, whether it's how we work, how we study, or even how we move about our own homes. Many titles in this selection of spring architecture and design book releases show just how authors and design professionals are grappling with the major changes of our time. Volumes such as Debbie Millman's Why Design Matters and Paola Antonelli's Design Emergency share the diverse viewpoints and design solutions of some of the world's leading creative voices; Otto von Busch's Making Trouble and Max Holleran's Yes to the City evaluate forms of DIY and housing activism; and Stephen Vider's Queerness of Home and Suchi Reddy's Form Follows Feeling tap into a more empathetic, human-centered approach to space. All of them, in some way, look at the past as a way to see clearly into the future of the built environment.
