BMY

Nestled within a serene suburban landscape, the single-storey concrete home seeks to blend with the landscape rather than stick out. Furthermore, it seeks to embody a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal, offering an ideal sanctuary for a modern family. Caption Caption The centrepiece of the home is a central long, tall passage, aptly referred to as the gallery, which both divides and connects various living spaces. Natural light streams in through the clerestory windows as well as through the central garden atrium. The gallery not only enhances the spatial flow but also acts as an artful display for personal art pieces and provides views of the seasonal landscape, fostering a sense of fluidity and connectivity....

OLX Group in Poznan, Poland

How to encourage employees to return to the office after a period of remote work? How to create for them a space close to a home office setting?

25 best architecture firms in Porto

Porto has a highly specific urban character that is unlike any other city. A dense and historic fabric set on an often impossibly steep hillside, Porto is a unique mix of old and new, seaside and agricultural, industrial and residential. The architecture of Porto is readily described through natural, simple volumes that are often rendered complex via the articulation of building openings and rich textures provided by terracotta or clay tile roofing, iron balustrades and ceramic cladding. Porto is both a center for architectural production and thought, home to the influential Faculty of Architecture at the University of Porto, where many local architects have both studied and taught. Porto’s architecture studios work primarily within P... More

25 best architecture firms in Rome

The origins of European architecture and urbanism are always traced to Rome. Roman building continues to be a primary source and reference point for design, whether it be for material use, for construction methods, for spatial organization, or for advising the hierarchy and proportions of a building relative to its individual components. It is doubtless that contemporary Roman architects draw from this built history in which they are immersed and, for many, in which they have lived and were educated. While many Rome-based practices work on projects sited in cities around the globe, the focus for a great number is on the renovation and rehabilitation of heritage buildings and urban sites within Italy. Whether local or international in their... More

PASSERELLE SUR LA LOIRE BLOIS

"La Sterne Passerelle" is a soft line above the Loire, like the curve of a white feather. A horizontal line in the landscape, punctuated by alternating existing supports, which... More

KME Hall

KME group’s new hall in Florence is a representative environment, suitable for welcoming visitors and customers in a space which is both functional and comfortable for business meetings. The initial regular volume was deconstructed to expand the perception of space and amplify its expressive and practical capacity. A skilful play of volumes and light contrasts the orthogonality of the environment: elliptical volumes described by numerous vertical elements in polished copper intersect at different heights. The curvilinear shapes, the rhythmic repetition of the vertical elements, the different heights, all combine to expand the perception of space, making it multiform, in constant evolution, enveloping and creating an intimate, yet ope...

House in a Garden

Situated at the northern tip of mainland Mauritius, Goodlands is one of the most densely populated neighbourhoods of the island nation. At the centre of Goodlands are large swathes of reserved forest lands, the fringes of which are occupied by sprawling family residences, far removed from the frenetic rush of denser developments close to the periphery. Located at the end of a residential street within these fringes, surrounded by protected land on two sides, sits the House In A Garden.   House In A Garden is home to a couple – who are avid art collectors – and their two young children, aged four and six. The house sits parallel to the south edge of the site, opening it up to the winter sun and a glimpse of the sea in the... More
