Superbox

Superbox is an office in which everything outside the screen has been emptied for the sake of the work completed within it. It is a space of White Interface—a background deliberately erased so that intensity belongs to the work rather than to the room—and this is not a visual preference but the principle that determines every decision, down to the single condition under which colour is permitted to appear. The space is constructed through erasure rather than addition. Ducts, pipes and structure remain exposed and are unified in white, so that the services of the building are no longer defects to be concealed but a drawing extended across the entire ceiling. Rather than covering the ceiling with finishes, form is neutralised and... More

Casa Roverella

A large oak tree gave the initial inspiration that led to the entire house being structured around it, making it the true protagonist of the project. Alex Reyto Alex Reyto Alex Reyto Every corner is designed to experience the spaces in continuity between inside and outside.

2005_MNB

The project pertains to the renovation of a small family house in Toulouse. Despite its dated and somewhat run-down appearance, the house benefits from a five-meter wide parcel, which allows for a structure made of beams and hollow-core slabs, thus offering easy open-plan possibilities. gabrielle vinson gabrielle vinson gabrielle vinson gabrielle vinson On the ground floor, the garage is removed, and the veranda and its utility room are demolished. On the street side, a new glass block wall set back from the façade creates a buffer zone from the street and sidewalk, providing space for bikes and containers.

e1

A strikingly minimal gallery-like space, in a listed building, referencing the tanneries of Dickensian London. Dan Hazeldean Once surrounded by the leather tanneries of Dickensian Whitechapel, this artisan dwelling was originally built as a lodge for a tanner and his family. Designed in 1864 by pioneering architect Henry Roberts and now Grade 2 listed, the lodge gives a rare insight into architecture now scarce in east London. Part derelict by the 1970’s and threatened with demolition, the building was saved, but most original features were removed and modernised. This gave us the freedom during our redesign, to strip out these additions, and reveal the underlying listed structure. Dan Hazeldean We challenged ourselves t... More

Dan Hazeldean In the bedroom a partition creates a concealed walk-in wardrobe. The simple plywood bed plinth with integral side tables was custom made for the space.Blown glass pendants hover beside the bed for delicate contrast. Dan Hazeldean... More
