Terrazzo is a flooring material that consists of uneven pieces of marble or granite set in concrete, which is then polished to give it a smooth finish.

An eighties suburban detached house that symbolizes the early incarnation of the American dream for an emerging middle class. An ‘L’-shaped gable roof defines this house, with an appendix for common areas and another one for bedrooms, which embraces a generous porch facing noon. It is a slight reminiscence of Cabrero’s early houses in Puerta del Hierro.

The global pandemic of physical inactivity urges us to rebuild streetscapes as places for sports and play. Beyond the typical competitive sports in fenced ‘court’ settings there is vast potential to make physical movement an integrated part of the daily environments in which citizens live, work and learn.

The Jushi Tower / GN Architects

September 9, 2022 Collin Chen 0

Fenghuang Lake CBD is the densest block of global leading enterprises in the segmented industry in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province. Since 2010, with the completion of the Zhenshi Hotel and Zhenshi, headquarter tower, the two high-rise buildings of Fenghuang Lake which are located south and north of the lake, has become a city landmark. During the period, the manufacturing industry became the national economic center, and China JushiGroup, the world’s number one in glass fiber, is also growing rapidly. In 2016, the client approached GN architects again and began to discuss the positioning of a new tower as Jushi headquarter. In a rapidly changing environment, the client wanted the building to be able to adapt to the current state of use, also enough flexible space they can manage efficiency and more room for value transformation in the future. The Jushi Tower, located on the central axis of Fenghuang Lake CBD in Tongxiang City, faces Feng Huang Lake Park to the south and adjacent to CBD’s Central Park to the east, was officially dedicated in May 2022.

Lantern Café / Studio Studio

September 9, 2022 Bianca Valentina Roșescu 0

This project is to turn an old house into a café. The relationship between the new building and the old roof was important. It was not a matter of preservation, but rather a matter of the simple fact that ‘different times meet.’ There are so many examples of renovating old houses. In addition to home renovations in Japan, many houses in Seoul are now being transformed into commercial spaces. What was important to me was the complete separation of the 1980s and 2020s by the roof and walls. The roof has already been completed, so I thought that newly created things should be extremely current. The ray of time does not come down under the roof. I didn’t want the project to take over the roof history with words like retro or new retro or reprint.
