Looking for a formal simplicity, EG home demonstrates how even a white wall can be a protagonist and not just a simple background. The plaster frames that embrace the walls fight symmetry, breaking it where possible, turning at every corner, and take over any spaces that are not always theirs. All under the eyes of wall lights, inviting the visitor to keep going.
Geometric and technical constraints were key to the design language which was chosen for this Duplex apartment in Central Tel Aviv. Instead of concealing the Mechanical and Electrical systems of the apartment, the decision was to expose them, and make them an integral part of the design.
A concrete envelope , which is rich in texture , was chosen for the ceiling and feature wall, and careful attention was given to the display of the clients eclectic collections, throughout the different spaces of the project.
An ancient history, brought back to life in the present. In the charm of generous interiors, local materials, ornate frescoed ceilings mixed with contemporary reworkings that feature signature photos and designer pieces of excellence. In Borgo San Frediano, the district in Florence on “the other side of the Arno River”, the “Oltrarno”, voted one of the coolest in the world with its narrow streets and a melting pot of small artisan workshops, new bars, boutiques, bistros, and restaurants, Pierattelli Architetture breathes new life into a 240 m2 apartment, restyling it to create an elegant functional sense of welcome that reflects both the identity and eclecticism of this location.
Designed for a family who are well travelled and take great pride in their adventures, the Wanderlust Villa aims to capture their adventurous spirit through insightful architecture and interior design. Be it an Irish bar, a Moroccan riad, or even a 60’s style home theatre, Studio Bipolar tried to stay true to the look without any compromises.
Located in a residential area, Taman Buana Permata house complex, Sarang Nest House design redefines house stereotypes and grew organically from the base to becoming, as a reaction to its environmental constraints. Sitting at the hook of the street, the building is facing west and south. The storeys are stacked in angles with protruded spaces enclosed by perforated wall to buffer the heat, either with traditional red bricks or metal screen that gives industrial look in contrast.
The grid house is about repetition and difference. A simple and regular concrete structural grid creates a variety of interior and exterior spaces with views across the Evoian Sea. The project is a full gut renovation of an existing modernist house that creates a 6 bedroom house tucked into the landscape, appearing modest from the entry but opening up its full width and height to the sea. At times the grid is infilled with brick to create enclosure and privacy. At other moments it contains full height wood-framed windows to orient views out into the garden and sea. In other locations the grid is left open, and creates exterior covered patios, balconies, and pergolas. The landscape is designed to wrap around the house and cascade in terraces down towards the sea.
We tailored this renovation of an apartment from the turn of the 19th century in Prague’s Bubeneč district to young clients with two, perhaps three little creatures.
The clients, together with the space and place as such, were the primary source of inspiration – their requirements, lifestyle, and the feeling they evoke.
The southern slopes of the first large suburb in the capital city of Prague have always attracted people to posh residential living. However, the romanticizing delirium of typical construction with steep roofs, ostentatious stone soffits and superfluous brick cladding used to be a laughing stock for modernist architects in their time, who dreamed of strip windows, flat roofs and central heating. Many prophets of the glorious industrial world did not give them hope for more than a generation.
It is a row house built in the early 90s. It is located in Sant Pere de Ribes, a village 50 kilometers south of Barcelona. It was large but dense, as it corresponds to the type of middle-class housing of the time. It was not a dark house, but it was in semi-darkness. To optimize the number of floors, the slabs leave a very tight clear height of just 255cm. There are four floors: one with a parking area (at street level), a ground floor (at the level of a rear public garden), a first floor and an attic. The house is well located, in the upper part of the village.
For the construction, we chose a strict, respectful archetype shape of the house that was already there before our intervention. However, the expression of the house takes on radical and strict shapes in our design.
The choice of materials and colors is provocatively solved in a contrasting design. On the facade there is black plaster, on the roof there is black corrugated roofing.
