A four-story museum building is a combination of large, inverse, intersecting cylindrical shapes, forming a singular object-type structure reminiscent of sea waves frozen in motion. The building balances structural integrity, functionality, aesthetics, and cost to arrive at a design that meets all the necessary criteria, following the best traditions of finished architecture. It is made of high-performance insulation composite stainless-steel panelling with low environmental impact. The building's opaque envelope has significant thermal mass, which helps absorb, store, and release heat—important passive elements in the building's thermal management. The panels are made of a Glulam "basket" double grid-shell fixed to a steel tube netw... More

Gerrard Road is an outstanding refurbishment and remodelling of a Grade II listed townhouse in Islington, and demonstrates Neil Dusheiko Architects’ sensitive approach to working with historic buildings. The house, which was originally built in the 1840s, has been carefully adapted to suit modern living, with period features sitting comfortably alongside stylish contemporary interventions.

Our client purchased this Victorian property in 2018. The original layout placed the main living rooms at the front, overlooking the street. The client wanted to create an open, light-filled kitchen / dining space at the rear, overlooking the long East-facing garden. Capital A Architecture Ltd The property had two existing extensions; one containing a pantry and the other enclosing a stairs leading to a basement room. The property next door also retained the original pantry extension, so this could not easily be demolished. Capital A Architecture Ltd Capital A designed a modern, zinc clad extension which knits together the existing house, pantry and basement room, each of which is on a different level. The new extension incorpor... More

The Ralph S. O'Connor Recreation center of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore Maryland recently underwent a renovation. ALPOLIC Quartz zinc finish canvases over most of the contemporary design of the building, with key accents being shown with the ALPOLIC Anthra black zinc finish. This project spanned three sides of the new renovation, including an angled canopy above the main entryway and a small vestibule area at the entrance. Omer Ozbeck Showcased above the canopy, we see a gradual wave of protruding fin panels surrounding the windows, composed with both gray (Quartz zinc) and black (Anthra zinc) colored finishes. The fins are a perspective feature that serves as the main focal point of the modernized addition. Omer Ozbeck More
