Built from renewable and recyclable materials, the 21-square-metre cabin can house two people and features a flexible open‑plan living and sleeping area with kitchenette and bathroom. Cabin N was developed with a focus on material circularity and environmental responsibility. Nina Manchova, the CEO and founder of Nomad Cabins, explains: “Like most products, an entire house cannot be 100% cradle-to-cradle, but with Nomad Cabins, we are proud we ended up with a design where the windows and the steel frame on which the cabin is built are the only bits you need to recycle.” Nomad Cabins...

Bright, expressive, bold - this is how you can describe the #electricblue42 project The owners of this apartment also stand out among the majority of customers for their courage in making decisions. First of all, I was inspired by their attitude to rich colors in the apartment. At the very first meeting, I formed an association of this young couple with clean, bright blue.

The scheme provides a new rear single storey extension to a Victorian terraced flat in South London. The flat was in poor condition and required a full refurbishment and reconfiguration throughout. The clients, young professionals, were involved throughout the whole process and imagined a concept of light colours and natural materials. Rayan Bamhayan A minimal design in its purest form, the new rear open space aims to draw the garden into the interior. The detail of the interior is in keeping with the architectural concept. Walls and ceilings throughout the extension are finished in washed-plaster and micro-cement used in the shower room to also cover the ceiling, walls and ground to unify the space.

Located in Funchal, in a residential area, the AA.Arquitectos atelier has been operating since 2019 in the attic of a duplex apartment. The intervention arises from the possibility of making the space independent of the apartment and from the need to reorganize the different functions of the space. AA.

This study is meant to give a general idea of the elements that are shaping cities today. Cities of today have the same needs as those of hundreds of years ago: communication and representation. They need to be connected and they need to be attractive. The elements that provide these necessities change and evolve through time. I see the European City as an evolving system of re-invention of the res publica.

What once the Roman roads meant for communication is represented by Ryanair today. The cult and veneration that temples received centuries ago, is these days being given to Superstar Architecture. Could Ikea be t... More
