Mini Tower One is a rear addition and renovation of a multi-family residential building in Brooklyn. This project extends the functionality of each unit by providing flexible space for various activities. Each floor of the building is enlarged, adding areas for living and entertaining. Some spaces can be both indoor and outdoor, such as the indoor terrace and all-season room, which can be enclosed to allow residents to watch the seasons pass with views of spring rains or winter snowfalls.

DW02 Lighthouse / Benthem Crouwel Architects

June 22, 2024 Hadir Al Koshta 0

The first building of the former Telegraaf complex in Amsterdam Sloterdijk was completed last week: DW02 Lighthouse. It is the completion of the first phase of the redevelopment of the District West office area, which will take place in the coming years. Benthem Crouwel Architects created the master plan for the large-scale transformation of this highly accessible area, located near the highway and just a stone’s throw from the station. As the initial phase, the existing high-rise of DW02 Lighthouse received a substantial upgrade to high-quality office space of 15,700 m². The building was reoriented towards the centrally located square with a four-story expansion featuring an impressive entrance. Unique to the project is the fully wooden structure. The realization of this first project provides a new impulse for this dynamic area, which will continue to develop in the coming years. Daniel Jongtien (architect and partner Benthem Crouwel Architects): “We designed DW02 Lighthouse as the first step in the development of District West. Created for the new way of working: maximum daylight, open office floors, and tangibly sustainable with a distinctive wooden structure.”

Moos De Hill House / AUM Pierre Minassian

June 22, 2024 Hadir Al Koshta 0

Moos De Hill is composed of two simple volumes placed one on top of the other. The triangular shape of the house opens onto the landscape of Lyon. The effect produced by the construction is stunning due to the contrast between its massive shapes and oversized cantilever. The entire building rests on a 23-ton kars rock that has been modeled over time. The rock supports the first floor and is the starting point of the huge 18 meter-cantilver which seems to challenge the laws of physics.
