House XO: Where Industrial Elegance Meets Modern Minimalism – Designed with a focus on contemporary urban living, XO exudes a unique charm, showcasing modern architecture that masterfully blends clean lines, minimalist furniture, and industrial elements to create spaces with exposed steel beams and large glass windows, blending seamlessly with its tropical surroundings. Its facade features concrete and metal, highlighted by a unique circular design. Surrounded by mature trees and lush greenery, the house offers a serene and private setting. The outdoor area includes a paved patio and a well-kept lawn, combining natural beauty with industrial design elements.
Catalejo is a work of architecture that arises from its context. Upon first encountering the land, a point of interest was immediately evident: a kind of oasis of four trees over 300 years old. The rest of the land appeared as a very fertile pasture, highly sensitive to the seasons of the year. In summer, it presents a rather desert-like landscape; however, in winter and spring, meters of so-called weeds sprout from the ground, flanking the house and making it float in an environment that, at ground level, is flat, but where the vegetation provides an irregular and unexpected relief that shifts.
This project is located on a typical townhouse plot, with a building footprint area of 5m x 14m. The client, a middle-income family, requested a design that accommodates their diverse needs while adhering to a limited budget. The design team aimed to create a compact yet functional and comfortable living space.
The building accommodates the European hub for the international network of design and visual arts universities, LCI Education. It is located in the former industrial district of Poblenou in Barcelona, now the technological district 22@, which is undergoing an urban transformation.
The restaurant was built in Soc Son as a destination for tourists to rest and feel the surrounding nature. Surrounded by perennial pine forests next to a natural stream, the design requires careful detail so as not to disrupt the existing landscape. The design task is to create an architectural work made from local materials, creating a space close to nature but still being new in architectural language and sustainable. over time. Architect Do Minh Thai (Mas Architects) and his colleagues came up with a solution to use the same trees grown and cared for on that land to create the work “Rhythm of the Wood” to preserve the time stamp on the built location.
The intensity of megacity urbanity, where air pollution and environmental degradation are pre-conditions for design, presents a particular challenge for the creation of secure environments for education. Conceptualized as a ‘cocoon’, this project for a pre-school and kindergarten aspires to be a luminous safe haven for young children as they engage with early years learning. Organized as a set of organic ‘cells’ of curved brick walls punctuated by circular porthole windows, the learning spaces weave a tactile ring around a courtyard.
Plot 6 is an urban ensemble with social rental housing comprising 170 studios for young people and 30 apartments for seniors. It is part of the significant urban transformation of the former industrial area Oostenburgereiland into a new residential district with approximately 1,500 homes in Amsterdam. The studios for young people are housed in the residential tower ‘De Stork,’ designed by Next Architects, and residential blocks ‘De Sluis’ and ‘De Werkplaats,’ designed by Urban Echoes. The apartments for seniors are located in the corner building ‘De Stoomkracht,’ designed by HOH Architects. HOH was also responsible for the design of the urban ensemble and the courtyard garden.
Dapur Naga is an architectural experiment in bamboo design located within the lush tropical environment of Bali. This distinctive structure serves as a communal kitchen and dining space, capable of hosting more than 50 people. The project presented significant challenges due to the sloping site, which features three major level differences, and the desire to seamlessly integrate the design with the natural environment. The main conceptual inspiration for Dapur Naga came from the graceful form of a whirling Sufi skirt, whose fluidity guided the development of the building’s undulating roof. The roof, an anticlastic surface, is carefully crafted to capture stunning views while promoting natural ventilation. This organic form creates an open and inviting space beneath, mimicking the movement of a dancer while also providing practical shelter.
