Article source: Studiocolnaghi Among the main qualities of this apartment, it’s possible to recognise that its double ceiling height is one of the most interesting. This project was developed to a couple and their son, seeing a future perspective of a son’s apartment. So, the master bedroom was designed for the son, using a dark wood, a little bit of colour (blue and green) and leather details. At the closet, the ideia was to create a solution which the client could use without the sensation of a small space. So, the open wardrobe system was an interesting solution in this case.

Article source: Fyra The best work environment in the Nordic region. The new Helsinki premises of CBRE, an internationally recognized company focused on work environments and real estate consulting, could have been nothing less. When Fyra started to plan the facilities for their long-term partner the main idea was that the work can be fun and comfortable, but the space can still be distinguished and professional. The facilities are divided into an internal zone that is used only by employees and an external zone that acts as a showroom for various work environment solutions – a collaborative space for customers and partners that easily transforms into seminar or event use.

House in Krkonoše, Czech Republic by Fránek ArchitectsFebruary 5th, 2021 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Fránek Architects To design a house in a pristine nature of Krkonoše was an exciting challenge, especially when it was for my long-standing friend and his young family, for a person who loves nature, art and life. Moreover, the design of the house corresponds in size to the existing building, which has been standing in this protected area since ancient times and as the only structure as far as the eye can see. The responsibility towards the circumstances and strict regulation gave an archetypal form. In addition, the investor required a sophisticated approach towards the space, which would be spiritually focused, unusual, and pure.  Image Courtesy © Petr Polák

Article source: Abscis Architecten The building site, situated parallel to the railroad tracks of the Leuven train station, is in many ways remarkable. It’s located within walking distance to the station, which is undergoing large scale developments, but it also seamlessly connects to the smaller scale residential area of ‘Klein Rijsel’.

Article source: Faulkner Architects This is a full-time beach house for a car passionate family of four situated across from Burnt Cedar Beach in Incline Village, Nevada on the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Prior to being pulled up the hill to flumes and rails destined for Virginia City, logs were staged here as the mountains around the lake shore were logged during the silver mining years of the 1860s.

Article source: Skylab Doug Fir is a 25,100-square-foot modern log cabin-inspired bar, restaurant, and music venue, conjuring an idealized vision of Portland’s up-and-coming potential as a global travel destination and cultural hub. The site began as a run-down diner adjacent to a forgotten motor lodge in an underappreciated stretch of East Burnside. The mountain lodge aesthetic was created by expanding the modernist elements of the original motel and recapturing the optimistic experience of mid-century travel and motel culture found in the existing site. Large glulam beams were restored and offset with new modern finishes of stainless steel, glass block, and chrome ceiling panels, now seen in a fresh context.  Image Courtesy © Boone Speed
