The project is located in Marvila, one of the oldest industrial and working-class areas in Lisbon, a district that, while not being fully integrated into the city, ended up belonging to it integrally, undergoing a process of urban regeneration, awaited for decades.

February 11, 2023 Valeria Silva 0

Far from the glitz and glitter of Hollywood, Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney designed this Los Angeles home for a half-Taiwanese, half-Chinese family seeking rest and peace. The busy couple—both are attorneys—and their two children who live in this house in Santa Monica, California, had a straightforward yet ambitious brief for the EYRC Architects team: They wanted “a place to get away from it all”.

SL64 House / Serra Norte Arquitectos

February 11, 2023 Andreas Luco 0

The plot, with a marked unevenness in the terrain, is located in an urbanization with a predominance of single-family housing use in Puente Genil, Córdoba. A country house is designed, whose initial goal was to have a versatile, comfortable day area closely linked to the outdoor space and the pool area. The night area should have four rooms, having one of the bathrooms with access to the pool area, easily used from outside. One of the bedrooms is located at the entrance, being suitable for using it as an office.

Alice II Office / noak studio + ACR arquitetos associados

February 11, 2023 Andreas Luco 0

The design concept for the new “Alice Saúde” unit is based on the brand’s initial premise: spaces connected with nature and divided into primary pillars of health, such as body, mind, sleep, and food. The challenge, in this case, was to develop the necessary program in a compact and vertical version, very different from the flagship unit. The guideline of the offices, ACR Arquitetos Associados and Noak Studio, hired for the development of the project, was to emphasize the original structure of the building, evidencing the installation of the new infrastructure necessary for the operation of a health space, also in an apparent way. This goes back to another foundation of the startup: transparency. “Casa Alice” is a space without hierarchies, it is democratic and transparent, elaborate and at the same time unpretentious.

Stella’s Cucina Restaurant / MQ Architecture

February 11, 2023 Pilar Caballero 0

Originally conceived as a cannabis lounge, Stella’s Cucina sits in the core of a new commercial building facing Boulder’s Historic District. As the enterprise could not be seen from the exterior, the space does not establish relationships with the city; therefore, we envisioned the project as an inheritor of the Speakeasy underground scene of the American Prohibition era and we sought the opportunity to bring natural light through a central skylight. This idea of an old-fashioned, elegant, but concealed space, profoundly influenced the design of the project. Only an “S” indicates Stella’s entrance on Walnut Street, hidden behind a towering 12 feet aluminum door under a perforated metal canopy.

February 11, 2023 Jon Astbury 0
