Brainium asked Hacker to design a modestly branded workplace that created a welcoming and visually pleasing experience while leaving room for the unexpected. The desired qualities were not entirely different from the studio’s own work: their game apps are unique, intuitive, and engaging, with incredible attention to detail, all for the goal of an amazing experience for the player.

Article source: Zooco Estudio In previous times the city of Madrid had a beach – on the Manzanares’ bank just ten minutes away from the city center. Nowadays, it is the new restaurant of La Maruca which offers a marine-like spot in the heart of the capital. This alludes to the city of Santander, where the group of restaurants originated from; whilst paying homage to Santander’s rationalist architecture, taking inspiration from the “Isla de Torre” Sailing School or the Royal Maritime Club.

Article source: Sau Taller d’Arquitectura Located in Vidrà, in the beautiful middle of the Bisaura, the Catalan Pre-Pyrenees, halfway between the regions of Osona, Ripollès and Garrotxa, two semi-detached houses are being planned. The property, located on the Font street, has a challenging topography with more than 4 metres of north-south slope. The road, on the south façade, has a gradient of more than 20% and surrounds the house until it ends in an open space that is significantly flatter to the north, a very pleasant place to be in summer. On the other hand, the site enjoys a very good orientation, with all-day sunshine and privileged views over the landscape, the Bisaura mountains, the village and, above all, the church and its bell tower.

A home for a family with small children for which we designed the setting of the many parallel experiences of the happy growth of its inhabitants. With knowing more about the family in mind we interviewed all the members and received a large amount of ideas, from the most simple and innocent, to the most complex and utopic.
