ADAT Studio competed against 70 international and Italian architecture firms, and presented an innovative design scheme that adheres to the strongest sustainability measures, whilst creating an architectural marvel that will infuse new life and experiences to the evolving Flaminio district of Rome, which is known as an area with examples of modern and historical architecture in Rome, from 1930s rationalist buildings to structures built for the 1960 Olympics that reflect that decade’s urban-planning philosophy to 21st-century award-winning sites.
ADAT Studio’s presentation was approved by a jury consisting of the world’s most prestigious architects and industry experts – including Daniel Libeskind, Benedetta Tagliabue, Fokke Moerel, Alessandro D’Onofrio. The brief was conceived by the Scientific Commission, which is chaired by Nobel Prize-winning Prof. Giorgio Parisi.

This project was invited by Design Anthology (referred to as \”da\” hereafter) and exhibited in Shanghai for four days upon its completion in 2023. As a magazine that combines design and art, Design Anthology(da) itself is like an archive. Returning to the theme of the invitation, \”Archive,\” we aimed to extract inspiration and express design concepts from the magazine itself.
The interiors of Bayou Villas designed by MSE (Metex Studio Erk) is based on the idea of integrating with nature and offering a personalized experience in itself, reflects the experiences of the nature-human-life relationship.
Situated in the central point of the new public square, near the meandering river bank with access to the water, on the direct pedestrian axis connecting two natural dominants of the city, the gallery has a significant impact on the urban structure. The newly applied function becomes the heart of the development profoundly respecting the local history.
A dredger-ship moored in Zapyškis (Kaunas district, Lithuania) can no longer be used for its intended purpose due to outdated technology that is harmful to the river ecosystem. The team’s goal here was to use it as an exhibit and at the same time create a space with a new function. Thus, the culture ship ‘Nemuno 7’ was born. It houses an interdisciplinary arts centre which offers exhibitions, a park on the water, artists’ residences and other cultural activities. The deck of the ship is planted with various types of pioneer plants. Their integration was one of the key elements of the ship’s transformation.
Since 2019, Art Hub Copenhagen has been based in Kødbyen, the Copenhagen Meatpacking District. Within a couple of years, it will move to a new location. This temporary perspective is a premise which is turned into the general dogma: Every element must be reused. Nothing is discarded but rather revitalized through the alteration of function and appearance.
Datong Art Museum – an important new cultural destination in China – has opened to the public with a special exhibition featuring oil paintings by local artists. One of four major buildings within Datong New City’s cultural plaza, it is set to become a new hub for creative industries in the region. The building’s sculptural form has been conceived as a landscaped terrain with a series of interconnected pyramids emerging from below the earth – the gallery spaces are sunken below ground and surrounded by landscaped plazas. Complementing the museum’s cultural programme are a series of spaces dedicated to education and learning, including a children’s gallery, media library, archive and art storage facilities.
A floating art gallery together with its large ‘manmade nature’ landscape surroundings creates an urban art utopia where art and artists meet the public. The place created by both the architecture and the landscape, is a highly welcoming and inclusive public space, where people can easily access, experience, and celebrate art while feeling inspired and enlightened.
Hyundai Premium Outlet Space 1 was opened in Dasan New Town, Namyangju, Gyeonggi-do. It is the first gallery-type outlet in Korea, and adds cultural and artistic elements such as art gallery and park. Its name “SPACE 1” also took the first letter of “Shopping, Play, Art, Culture, Experience” and added “1” with the meaning of one. The overall design direction was also “Everyone’s Holiday”, establishing its identity as “a holiday for everyone”.
One of notable spaces is the symbolic CUBE that connects indoor and outdoor. It creates various expressions and landscapes within the space, where each area overlaps and connects through the design concept “Pairing Cities”. This forms a three-dimensional facade, and provides an interesting spatial sense. Besides, by blurring the brands’ boundaries, it makes visitors experience a variety of moving line connecting shopping areas and rest areas naturally.
