Park Residence

Park Residence is a residential building located in the heart of Sofia, between the vibrant city center and the serene expanse of Holy Trinity Park. This prime location brought a unique set of challenges for the architectural team: designing a building that is both visually engaging and functionally efficient, integrating the building into the urban environment, and fostering a harmonious connection with the park. A key challenge for the architects at IPA was the complexity of the site. Situated in a bustling, high-traffic neighborhood, the project needed to strike a balance between the dynamic urban environment and the residents’ need for privacy and comfort. The building's close proximity to Holy Trinity Park required a sensitive d... More

The home located in the suburbs of New Orleans had a low ceiling that provided its exterior (and interior) with an aesthetic (and proportion) that was familiar to other mid-century homes built in this region but lacked many of the components that often distinguish these homes as remarkable works of Architecture such as an open floor plan, vaulted spaces (strategically juxtaposed to the low ceilings), and unexpected elements of surprise.  Instead, the home favored functionality and formality in keeping with the regional client expectations of that time. Many distinct enclosed rooms with expected functions such as study, playroom, small and large formal dining room, sunroom, etc. strongly established a predetermined circulation path.... More

Aikya Signature

Aikya Signature is a stand-alone residential tower at Tardeo, in the heart of South Bombay.  This tower is personified by its geometric linear design and is supported by the sustainable systems which were organically incorporated into the design. An important aspect of this system is the façade of the building which is engineered in a way to protect the indoors from the tropical Mumbai climate. The east west orientation of the building provides ample  north light to the main living areas. This orientation of the building also naturally ventilates the structure. Yamini Krishna Photography Caption The site itself had a lot of space constraints while designing. By providing stacked puzzle parking ample green space w... More

PEP – Residential estate Prinz-Eugen-Park

Lively Variety Shelves establish order, they provide structure and, like type cases, are open to various different contents. The municipally subsidized housing estate in Prinz-Eugen-Park is informed by the basic shape of the storage rack and brings new identity to what used to be military barracks premises. (c) AllesWirdGut/ tschinkersten fotografie With their individual façade designs, the heterogenous individual townhouses express variedness and richness of detail within the structural framework of the rack. The lively interplay of basic structure and contents unfolds a special charm which also becomes manifest in one additional feature: The stairwell also provides an expanded community area and central communication space....

It is  an extremely interactive home for a close knit joint family, the one that cooks & dines together.
