There were two main challenges in the design of the main entrance, firstly, the angle of the hospital building compared to the main road and secondly, the presence of an emergency ramp next to the hospital entrance. Caption Caption Caption Caption According to the above conditions, the entrance gate was designed in the form of two overlapping frames, so that a large frame includes the entrance and the ramp and acts as one element from a distance, and the smaller frame serves as the entrance for people and ambulances.

Casa Lioz

Casa Lioz is located on sloping land, at the top of a hill, with an outstanding view of an estuary and the outline of the golden cliffs that border the bay of Lagos. To the north, the view extends to the outline of a mountain range and the green fields in between. Through an organic path of ramps and steps, the entrance of the house is reached.  This path is made up of different levels and floors, interspersed with various patios, different shapes and a surprising luminosity which varies throughout the day.  This light is sometimes reflected, absorbed by the marble roughness that partially covers the building, whose weight contrasts with the brightness of the white that covers many volumes that make up this house. © Ferna...

Tranquil Abiding

After years of intimate involvement with their Buddhist community in upstate New York, our spiritually-minded clients decided to plant roots closer to their Glen Spey temple. Despite the travel-loving couple’s broad geographic search for a second home, they were eventually led back to Glen Spey, where they felt a pull to be near their place of spiritual practice.
