The new Crafts College in Horsens is designed to serve as a living and inspiring catalog of exemplary solutions in craftsmanship, architecture, and materials. It is the first of its kind in Denmark.
The high-rise developed by CA Immo and realized for its portfolio acts as a prominent entrance to the new Europacity quarter in Berlin and forms a profile-forming triad with the existing high-rises. In its external appearance, the building confidently takes up a position and enters into a dialog with the two other towers. While the structure of the Tour Total (also an existing CA Immo building) is characterized by vertical concrete elements and that of the 50 Hertz building by horizontal metal bands, the new building plays with the structure of an undirected grid of condensing aluminum rods.
House De Marchi addresses the challenge of achieving contemporary luxury living in the Mediterranean while preserving the location’s identity and balancing user aspirations. Perched atop the idyllic hill of Bobovišća by the sea, near the monument to the famous Croatian poet Vladimir Nazor’s Three Sisters, the setting itself is profoundly suggestive. In contrast, the house seeks to integrate seamlessly with nature, using Mediterranean drywall that meanders through the low ground floor, embedded into the terrain.
This TI space is about patients experiencing an atmosphere of light and hope. Southwest Breast and Aesthetics is an atypical Doctor’s office for women, whose business is primarily focused on breast reconstruction for breast cancer patients. Plastic Surgeons are typically the 2nd Doctors visited after diagnosis, usually with loved ones for support, and are patients for a minimum of 18-24 months.
The addition to a cabin in Nordmarka is an example of how a traditional log cabin can be given a new lease of life with added space and functions without the building’s older parts being demolished or the cabin’s footprint increasing. The building is an archetypal Norwegian cabin built with notched logs from right after the war – a classic cabin with classic problems.
Children from Prague now have one more reason to play outside: among the apartment blocks stands the circular Nami Play Pavilion – an experimental playground full of free elements. Created as one of the installations for the Prague Landscape Festival, its goal is not only to expand play options for local residents but also to spark discussion about the current state of children’s play in the city. ‘Today’s playgrounds are standardized and composed just of colorful, fixed equipment on a rubber surface. We have nothing against swings, but we believe children deserve a bit more, both functionally and aesthetically,’ says Eduard Herrmann, one of the duo behind Nami ñami studio, the creators of the project.
Scenic shorelines tend to be subdivided finely, maximizing water access to the greatest number of inhabitants. The lots in this neighborhood take that principle to an extreme with small slivers of land ten times deeper than their width. Given that new construction must retreat from the shoreline, this leads to houses stacked closely side-by-side along a common setback line, each reaching for optimal views. These factors create challenges for privacy, daylight access, and air circulation. Accordingly, zoning laws prohibit each structure’s height from exceeding its horizontal distance to the property line, further narrowing the building envelope. In this context a builder and mariner sought to create a home with the efficiency of the boat he once lived on, creatively adapted to address the site’s challenges.
Combining architectural finesse with the neighborhood’s heritage building typology, the new train station pavilion, designed by Sid Lee Architecture, acts as a beacon at the heart of the Côte-des-Neiges – Notre-Dame-de-Grâce neighborhood, for the well-being of its surrounding community. The station’s new iteration is part of a transformation project that aims at upgrading exo’s entire transit network to improve the uniformity of its services. The new building serves as a crucial hub on one of the busiest lines of the transit system. At its origin, the project aimed to update the station to meet exo’s new safety and accessibility objectives. Thus, the new pavilion embodies an innovative approach that seeks to transcend the simple function of an access point to become a distinct symbol within the community’s landscape.
Residential Park Lozen stands as one of Bulgaria’s most ambitious and expansive residential initiatives. Developed by the Bulgarian branch of the German company Lindner Group in collaboration with IPA – Architecture and more, this project has transformed into one of the most desirable living locations. The project’s core concept is to foster independence within each housing unit while cultivating a sense of community and promoting peaceful coexistence among residents. Located near Lozen village and within easy reach of the city, the complex offers a closed-type community. It meets the needs of modern urban residents by providing a harmonious and fulfilling lifestyle while maintaining convenient access to city amenities.
This project is a 21st-century reinvention of the ‘collegiate quadrangle’, the basis of Oxford’s academic and urban fabric. The Oxford quadrangle is an 800-year-old pedagogical model that combines student rooms with teaching spaces, organised around landscaped courtyards. Every Oxford College is a variation of this typology. Alison Brooks Architects’ new 6,000 m² Cohen Quad will expand Exeter College’s 700-year-old campus in the heart of Oxford, with undergraduate and graduate living accommodation for 90 students, auditorium, seminar rooms, social learning spaces (The Learning Commons), special collections archive, café, roof terrace, offices and fellows’ accommodation.
