BoaVista Palhano Playground

We were invited by the BoaVista Palhano condominium to design a small children’s playground adjacent to its social club. The space occupies a garden at the entrance of the ensemble, shaped by the gentle curve of the road and the site’s topography. The shape of the site, which resembles a boat sail, inspired the project's layout and its playful character. Sofia Vasconcelos Sofia Vasconcelos Sofia Vasconcelos Due to its proximity to the street, the playground demanded solutions that guaranteed security without losing integration with the surroundings. The terrain was lowered in relation to the street level, and the enclosure was built with stacked stone walls, continuing the materiality adopted throughout the condo... More

The Dip Pavillion

The Dip Pavilion is conceived as an elemental architectural intervention within an existing residential landscape. Designed primarily for evening use alongside a swimming pool, the pavilion negotiates openness and enclosure while maintaining a calibrated relationship between architecture and landscape.   Caption Caption The project is organized as a linear, transparent volume held beneath a singular roof plane and supported by an independent structural system. Full height glazing allows uninterrupted visual continuity across the garden, while slender columns placed beyond the glass frame the space. This separation preserves the lightness and fluidity of the interior volume while establishing a clear architectural rhythm and... More

Oak Grove Park

Oak Grove Park is located in the heart of a modernist housing neighborhood in Klaipėda, Lithuania. Revitalized in 2021, the park has become a beloved spot for locals. It offers two distinct zones: one for active leisure, with sports areas, exercise facilities, and playgrounds, and another for quiet relaxation, where people can read under trees, gather in small spaces, or feed birds by the pond. These areas are linked by a circular pathway—perfect for walking, cycling, or rollerblading. Norbert Tukaj Norbert Tukaj Norbert Tukaj Oak Grove Park shows how public space renewal can stimulate the regeneration of large-scale housing neighborhoods.

Piedra

The idea of Piedra was to create a piece of architecture that would harmoniously fit within the surrounding context. All design choices come together in a single holistic vision of seamless cohesion between the existing natural landscape and the architectural intervention – volumetric composition, materiality, detailing.  Dian Stanchev Located in the picturesque resort of Saints Constantine and Helena, one of the greatest assets of the site was its proximity and visual connection to the water. The seascape is constantly moving and changing throughout the day. Thus, framing this living painting became one of the leitmotifs shaping the volumes of the buildings and dictating to a large extent the overall attitude to the projec... More

Reconstruction of Uspenska Square

The Ukrainian city of Dnipro has opened a renovated Uspenska Square, one of the oldest squares in the city. It was established more than 200 years ago. Dnipro is now an industrial city with over a million dwellers located 100 kilometers from the front line of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The reconstruction of Uspenska Square began in 2021, with 80% of the work completed, but in February 2022, the construction was forced to stop due to the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. But despite the ongoing war, the city is still trying to live: IDPs are coming here, and residents who left the city are returning. Therefore, at the end of 2023, the reconstruction was completed and the square was opened to the public. Andrey Avdeenko At all tim... More

Natura Gardens

The 30-acre Natura Gardens incorporates 10 acres of restored wetlands, striking a delicate balance between community needs and environmental responsibility. The restored wetlands became an opportunity to demonstrate how communities can serve as the custodians of scarce environmental resources. The site plan integrates the wetlands so residents can experience the seasonal changes of this essential ecosystem. To pay homage to the cultural history of living around wetlands, the community’s open space features several chickees, the thatched-roof shelters of the indigenous Seminole Tribe.  Landscape Design Workshop & Avatar Productions Landscape Design Workshop & Avatar Productions Landscape Design Workshop &...
