Stöckli House / Clou Architekten

July 29, 2021 Andreas Luco 0

The new Stöckli is located in the second row of a green and sloping suburban area. Thanks to its silver plywood facade with its striking grain, it expands the single-family home to a representative and harmonic ensemble facing the valley. Sloping upwards toward the garden, the Stöckli tucks itself under an old walnut tree as a single-story pavilion.

NOME Archive / Atelier xy

July 29, 2021 Yu Xin Li 0

Traditionally, the archive is used by professional institutions or individuals to record documents and collections mostly for research or cultural dissemination. When people talk about the archive, the most obvious visual sign is the neatly organized shelves of great scale. The designers have taken the relevant visual elements and combined them with architectural theory to create a space that fits the NOME ethos. The retail space is seen as an archive, and the collection has been transformed from a documentary and collecting function to a display of design-inspired goods.

The Bow Office / VPA Architects

July 28, 2021 Andreas Luco 0

A site office is the first impression for any residential scheme. We decided to have a bold façade to have a unique identity. The façade is done using identically shaped metal members with a rustic finish, hence, the name “the bow office”. ‘Bow’ shaped members in between two wide horizontal bands have been articulated on the front elevation. This not only creates an eye-catching identity from the outside but also makes a beautiful play of patterns inside. The bow-shaped façade was done to co-relate and have a sense of continuity with the iconic crown feature that each of the residential towers will have, in the future. By evening, this façade lights up and transmutes into a shimmering jewel piece, adding a distinctive character to the skyline.
