Artel31 designs a temporary pavilion with reclaimed materials on a disused railway site in Bristol
Reimagined as a purpose-built folly by Artel31, the site of the former Mangotsfield station in Bristol is hosting a yearlong series of artistic commissions by local artists. The station, which served as a connecting transit point between Bristol and Birmingham, shut down in 1966, leaving behind its remnants, a distinctive memory embedded in the local history.

1:10 is a system designed to meet different partitioning requirements, from areas separated by glazed modules to create an open-plan feel to absolutely private areas with blind modules. Between these two commonplace options lies a very wide range of requirements which 1:10 solves thanks to the diversity of the modules and assemblies developed.

Triodos Bank
The natural surroundings of the Estate were considered during the development of the new office. The design and construction are centred around principles of nature and biomimicry. Biomimetic architecture seeks solutions for sustainability in nature by following its set of principles and using it as a model, taking inspiration from natural designs and processes. Building heights have been adjusted to remain below the treeline. Bat flight routes were respected, and a special light plan was developed to prevent disorientation and to protect fauna. The energy-neutral building consists of sustainable materials and a demountable, wood-hybrid construction, which was designed by Rau Architects and constructed by JP van Eesteren... More

Temporary Courthouse Amsterdam
New construction for the temporary courthouse Amsterdam, jointly designed by cepezed & cepezedinterior. Together with the existing towers E and F, the new construction of approximately 5.400 m2 will be part of the temporary courthouse on the grounds of the current Parnascomplex along the Parnassusweg. Here, the larger part of the jurisdiction will take place during the five years that a new permanent housing will be developed on the same parcel. For both the temporary and the permanent new construction, the existing complex will partially be demolished.
Within the construction, quintessential processes of the courthouse will have their course. Consequently, the demands are high. For example, the interim-character of the building may not de... More
