Humaniti in Montreal, Canada by Lemay

Function

Montreal’s first “smart vertical community,” this thoroughly modern, mixed-use megaproject features a luxury hotel, condo and rental units, offices, restaurants, boutiques and large public spaces linked to a major park. In harmony with its pluralistic context, it offers varying degrees of permeability with its surroundings, creating spatial moments based on elevation and building depth.

On a pedestrian scale, Humaniti will frame a new public plaza and Place Jean-Paul-Riopelle, whose iconic art centers a new urban room. On a district scale, there is powerful dialogue with the complex’s four distinct neighborhoods: Old Montreal, Downtown, the International Quarter and Quartier des spectacles. On a metropolitan scale, upper levels define a wider urban room framed by Humaniti, Mount Royal and the St. Lawrence River.

The Icon Vienna in Austria by BEHF Architects

Wednesday, December 4th, 2019

Article source: BEHF Architects

BEHF Architects has teamed up with JSWD Architekten to deliver Vienna’s landmark towers THE ICON VIENNA, directly adjacent to Vienna Central Station (Hauptbahnhof).

The complex comprises three high-rise office towers joined by a common plinth. The three buildings appear individual but complement one another and communicate with the neighbouring facilities. The project plays a trailblazing role in the urban fabric and impresses with clarity and accuracy in the orientation of the three high-rise buildings as well as with the articulation of the facades. With its soft shapes, the trio enables an easy flow of visitors between the towers and through the district. Rather than functioning as an individual structure, THE ICON VIENNA opens up to the city and carefully unites the existing buildings in the Belvedere district.
