In the heart of Poznań’s Jeżyce district, often referred to as the Polish Berlin, at the intersection of Staszica and Szamarzewskiego streets, lies Atelier Gusta. This space is the result of an inspiring collaboration between GUSTA Jewellery, Von Motz, and mode:lina™. Patryk Lewiński / mode:lina™   It all began with a dilapidated grocery store featuring impressive, tall semicircular display windows covered with advertisements for popular salads. Located on the ground floor of a beautiful early 20th-century tenement house, both the premises and the building had been waiting for years to regain their former glory. The task of renovating the space was entrusted to the designers from mode:lina™. This was a p... More

The project for Supermayorista Vital, an Argentine company and a leader in the sale and distribution of mass-consumption products, began with the need to reorganize its work environment and enhance its spatial impact. The main objective was to modernize the 5,000 m² of the existing building—composed of four levels and a basement—in order to adapt it to new work dynamics and update its image. To support them in this process, Vital engaged Contract Workplaces, which initiated the task with a series of workshops led by its Workplace Management team. The purpose was to define the values and dynamics that would be present in the new workspace. Andrés Negroni From the beginning, the symbolic importance of the buildi... More

NODE Ankara is designed as a multifunctional complex that brings together diverse functions within the fragmented fabric of the urban structure. The project transforms the dynamics of the city into an architectural rhythm by uniting residential, office, hotel, commercial, and cultural uses under a single roof. Here, architecture is not merely about creating form; it becomes an organism that directs urban mobility, nurtures social interaction, and adds new layers to the urban memory. ivaBOX Against the monotony offered by the densely concentrated commercial and office areas in the existing context, NODE Ankara offers a rich programmatic diversity that brings together varied user groups. The integration of an art building strengthens th... More

To define a position in a context that we all hope will be transitional is very difficult, even though we have a strong feeling that it will bring about a change in our lives, whether clinical, material, procedural or socially. This is further compounded by the fact that our own understanding is evolving as the months go by, so the proposal that won this curatorial opportunity in September 2020 will probably not be the same as the one explained today, in March 2021, or the one that will finally be exhibited in May this year. And yet, as good creatures of habit, it is our hope that life will go back to what it was before the pandemic, or at least something similar.   We believe that architecture today should be interpreted as a social...

The Future is the place where we project all our dreams. Often books, movies, stories and fairy tales portrait the future as an utopian fantasy, where everything is beautiful and we can all live peacefully together. Is it possible to envision today the World of Tomorrow? Is it possible to take people into an oneiric dream?   DROPS is an art installation, made of luminescent glazed drops scattered on Caorle's cliff that absorb the light during the day and release it at night transforming a the defence tidal system into a social and artistic infrastructure. A composition of colored drops recall the imprint left by the waves. During the day the installation looks like a mosaic, as a reminiscence of the nearby Venetian tessellations, and... More

With lighting being the main factor in the look and feel of a space, our goal was to give meaningful change to the layout and highlight the architectural details of the room. Large spaces, such as multi-purpose rooms, require more attention to details and good lighting. For this project, it was very important to maintain versatile functionality while also being creative. With such a large space, we wanted to properly distribute our lighting so no matter what the space was used for, lighting would always be constant and functional.  Caption LED Lighting has a lifespan almost twenty times more than conventional lighting. Giving this space a cutting-edge in terms of maintenance and replacement costs because of the long-lasting quali... More

Visible light seemed to be pure, colourless and indivisible, but after the 17th century when Isaac Newton dissembled it through a prism, we have discovered that it is made by an infinite array of beautiful colors. So, is the Humankind! Every person is unique, every individual is a single shade in the full display of color that we call humanity. Is it possible to create an installation that celebrates people uniqueness while laying the foundation for an inclusive society of tomorrow? New York City will be the stage of a massive urban-land-art event for which the scenography is already set in place. SPECTRUM, requires that each screen and billboard of Time Square displays a single monochrome color, creating an ever-changing composition, s... More

The redevelopment of the building, with the entrance from Corso di Porta Romana 19 within the historical center of Milan, represents an innovation for the way of approach and the design sensitivity, making a perfect synthesis between historical tradition and contemporary design. The intervention completely renews the building by creating a new glass roof in a contemporary language, harmoniously fitting into the historical context and respecting the architecture of the building underneath. The characteristic features of the intervention are the redesign of the internal facades, the new loggia on the penultimate floor and the new glass structure on the roof. The latter, born from the demolition and reconstruction of the existing pitched roo... More

Bombas Gens is an old industrial building with an unquestionable social-historical value and one of the rare remaining examples of the industrial architecture of the thirties. Its Art Deco façades and architecture make it a special, unique location for some new uses according to today needs. The new facilities have been created as an internationally renowned multi-use space where Fundació Per Amor a L’Art will carry out its three-branch activity (arts, society and research). "Our aim has always been to apply a homogeneous intervention criterion to the whole complex, and, at the same time, give each building, be it original or recently built, the characteristic features that it needs for its specific use." - Ramó...

CO2morrow is a reactive sculpture, first shown at the Royal Academy of Arts in London as a part of the show, “Earth: Art of a Changing World” in 2009. Inspired by Timothy Morton’s idea of the hyperobject, CO2morrow approaches climate change as an issue of consciousness. The sculpture is created almost entirely out of carbon fiber and is modeled after a scrubber molecule that takes CO2 out of the air, based on research by chemist Omar Yaghi. The sculpture is also covered in LED lights that react in real time to data received from a network of sensing technologies in the United Kingdom. During the project, the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, who were helping Lutyens and his team collect data, were hac... More
