Bunkie on the Hill / Dubbeldam Architecture + Design

September 11, 2024 Pilar Caballero 0

The smallest in a collection of cabins scattered across four-family properties, Bunkie on the Hill serves as a space of respite for a family-oriented client in Muskoka. Designed by Dubbeldam Architecture + Design, the Bunkie is tucked into the trees at the top of a steep slope, providing a quiet space away from the action of the multigenerational family cottages below. A contemporary interpretation of the traditional A-frame shape evokes the quintessential cabin in the woods, differentiated by shifted roof volumes. Reminiscent of the overlapping layers of rock in the surrounding landscape, the split roof design features two intersecting gables that create opportunities for window openings where the roof volumes separate.

Those who come from the sea hardly notice the volume of the Patios House at the foot of a verdant mountain. The thin slab that divides the green from the sand shelters an almost invisible house, dissolved in the landscape.

Mureli House / Makhno Studio

September 11, 2024 Pilar Caballero 0

Mureli is a Ukrainian archaism, an original word in the language of our ancestors, which has fallen out of modern use, but we would like to bring it back. Because we hold mureli in our hands every summer, small orange ones with a red gradient, sweet or sometimes sour. Mureli means apricots. We gave this name to the project of a family house near Kyiv because the construction was finished just in the middle of the summer, and stylistically the interior reminds us of a warm July morning when your eyes are still half-closed, but you are already barefoot looking for the way to the kitchen, where murelis are waiting in a vase since yesterday.

Hertogensite Residences / David Chipperfield Architects

September 11, 2024 Anna Dumitru 0

The Hertogensite residences are located at the edge of the medieval center of Leuven, an important university city near Brussels. The project forms part of a master plan for the redevelopment of a former hospital campus that had previously divided the west of the city from the center and as such will contribute to the opening of the site and its reintegration into the surrounding city. Set on a narrow site between a fragment of the city’s medieval wall and a branch of the River Dijle, the development is unique in that it combines several residential typologies: a 14-story tower, nine townhouses, and a small apartment block, uniting them in a single building.
