Schizophrenic Gesamtkunstwerk in Wanstead, London by Space Group of ArchitectsDecember 2nd, 2020 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Space Group of Architects This project is many things, but boring is certainly not one of them. As the name suggests, it certainly has a split personality but also contains an avalanche of details. There is the original Edwardian part which sits in stark contrast with the contemporary volume at the back. This approach manages to address the different desires of the two clients: There are the historical, slightly romantic rooms in the old house counterbalanced by the contemporary, minimal but warm box at the back.

Article source: CuldeSac The second Freshly Store has already opened its doors in the heart of Madrid; a 100m2 space at 46 Fuencarral. After the success of the first space in Barcelona, the Freshly Cosmetics team has once again joined forces with the Valencian studio CuldeSac for this new challenge. A space that is the evolution of the previous one. Freshly’s iconic curve reflects the brand’s personality: it makes things easier, speeds up routes, takes risks and breaks new paths. A brave and cornerless brand. In addition to these attributes, there is also the DNA of Identy Beauty, the new make-up line with which the company has broken into the market. An in-store journey in parallel through the duality within the same brand. The more conventional face of Freshly in front of the spontaneity of Identy.  Image Courtesy © David Zarzoso

Article source: SP62 Architecture Our history with Geekie begins in 2015, when the company developed an educational platform. With the office growing and gaining partners, the then startup company needed to set up its headquarters. For 2020, impacting 12 million students, the company expanded. A space for 180 people to work, with the concept of open tables, meeting rooms with different functionalities and an auditorium for larger events. The idea was to create a space on the ground floor to receive teachers and school principals from all over Brazil, so we created a prototype classroom and distinct from what is known as a “classroom”. In it, the slates accompany the walls, and come out from behind the teacher.  Image Courtesy © Julia Novoa

Article source: aoyagi design The site is a small lot of about 50 square meters located in a residential district on the outskirts of Tokyo. While the view is blocked on three sides, the ground level is 2 meters higher than the road facing the eastern side. This gives it a unique floating feel and open views toward the schoolyard on the opposite side of the road. The house is for a couple, who are also the architects of the project, and their children.

The design of Novum East draws the surrounding verdant greens into the project, from the external columns and the sculpted green wall at the entrance, to the bonsai-themed décor inside the clubhouse. The interiors reinterpret rural and rustic charm with effortless flair. Taking cues from classic farmhouses, the residents’ clubhouse is conceptualized as an “Urban Barn”, with a collection of luxurious entertainment and amenity spaces.
