National Social Security Offices in Motril
The new offices for the National Social Security in Motril respond to modernization needs as one of the most useful public offices. The program for the current design was determined by the need for open space and continuity for both users and workers, as the daily activity of this office will support a heavy flow of people.The Spanish architectural firm Erisur won the public tender with a program that made a fluent dialogue between the entrance and the interior of the building. Bamboo wood was the main element for the complete composition of the interior, placed in ceiling, floors, and wall coverings.The need for open space made the election of a raised access floor system a simple, yet logical answer. All the cables and ducts were hidden u... More

Inscape Meditation Studio
INSCAPE, a new meditation concept, opened in Manhattan 2016. Archi-Tectonics designed the Inscape concept not only as a one-off, but also for worldwide distribution. The first PROTO space in Chelsea occupies a large 6000sf ground floor. The space contains a set of large volumes; ellipsoid meditation spaces; a “Dome Room” and an “Alcove room”, an extensive retail space, as well as a lounge for guests. An important element of healthy living is found in lifestyle changes, meditation and ‘cleaner’ live-work environments. When developing the Inscape meditation concept, prefab construction, renewable materials, such as bamboo, linen and cardboard, became the driver of the spatial configueration.

Südwestmetall office
A switch is not absolutely necessary to light up a room. It is perfectly possible without – as Nimbus demonstrates in the new building of the Neckar-Fils regional arm of the Südwestmetall employers' association in Esslingen. The light activates itself autonomously – but only when necessary – in this markedly transparent building with its sweeping form. The architect was also convinced by the formal aspects of the Nimbus luminaires.
We are often surprised to find that a difficult piece of building land need not present an obstacle to outstanding architecture. Esslingen am Neckar is a case in point. Not far from Stuttgart, in the booming Mittlerer Neckar region, Esslingen is currently undergoing a transformation in terms of urban planning... More

MOSO Bamboo Forest
MOSO Bamboo Forest is the most authentic bamboo floor imaginable. For this unique product the bamboo stem is flattened with a special process to create the top layer of a three layer solid bamboo floor board. The result is a very robust floor with the natural beauty and original look of the bamboo plant. The surface of the floor consists of the stony bark of the bamboo stem, which is so hard and wear resistant that no oil or lacquer finish is required.
Key characteristics of MOSO Bamboo Forest:
•Sustainable, ecological and highly renewable | The giant bamboo species MOSO grows to maturity within 5 years (compared to over 50 years for most hardwood species) and can therefore act as the green alternative for scarce tropical hardwood
•H... More
