A unique accent wall is one way of making a plain and boring wall stand out, a good example of this has been created in a bedroom designed by Sergey Makhno Architects.

This house is located next to the intersection along the main road in Toki City, Gifu Prefecture.

This project is a plan to relocate “Ranran, a specialty ice and potato shop” in Ibaraki, Osaka. The existing shop in the shopping street will be relocated to a single wooden house where the owner’s family used to live. And the house was renovated and turned into a new store. When designing the store, we put great importance on the wishes of the customers to be welcomed in a space with Ran-Ran’s unique style.
The building site had a significant influence on the design of this house. Layered with intense geologic history at the base of a three-million-year-old volcano, the site is a north-facing 20-degree slope with equal parts refuge and prospect at 6,300 feet above mean sea level. Consisting of volcanic sediment from ancient flows and strewn with boulders up to 15 feet in diameter, the site is in an open stand of second-growth Jeffrey Pine and White Fir trees. The vertical, plumb lines of the tree trunks, stripped bare from years of deep snowfall, reach for the light. Standing upright at an angle to the slope, they provide a constant reference to the perpendicular horizon in the distance. The harsh winters leave the ground sparse yet partially covered with a mat of pine needles and cones. Large waist-high clusters of manzanita group together and climb the slope in an organic, opportunistic pattern.

What if we were up to re-evaluate our priorities and clean up excess spaces we inhabit, reducing homes to a configuration that values what makes sense to each family and removing what is superfluous? The Grená House was designed for a family of four: a couple and their two adult children. The land is the same where the former family house is, with 330m², having also a large garden and a squash court.
This small house on the Spanish island of Formentera, south of Ibiza, exemplifies some of the common denominators of architect Marià Castelló’s work: delicacy of form, respect for the environment and the conscious use of materials.
In 2018, Ropeswing Group selected Marlon Blackwell Architects (MBA) to create the interior of their new 2,000 square foot fast casual ramen restaurant at the 8th Street Market in Bentonville, Arkansas. The 8th street market is a creative, local economy reimagining of a disused food processing plant. The design for CO-OP Ramen evolved from the productive dissonance of the new and the old, the highly crafted and happenstance.
