This project takes place in the urban planning of the Plateau de Saclay, along the public spaces chain, defined by XDGA and MDP. Within a coherent architecture, it links together the metropolitan scale of the site and a more intimism and domestic scale related to the dwellings.
In order to conserve the size of the urban composition, this area composed of three plots has been thought as one entire block with big courtyards, crossed on one of its diagonal by a pedestrian path. The Canyon, element of the urban composition, is emphasized by a linear and stepping building aligned on the north limit, where is located the main part of the program.
Renovation and conversion of house 19 to a day care center, student club and administrative building of the TH Wildau.
House 19 is located on the site of the Technical University of Applied Sciences (TH) Wildau.
It is a former listed industrial hall of the hardening shop of the locomotive construction company Berliner Maschinenbau-Aktiengesellschaft (BMAG), formerly “L. Schwartzkopff Berlin “. In the 1950s, it was converted into a two-storey multipurpose building.
Being part of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation expansion plans, the Fiocruz Ceara Campus is a key equipment of the Industrial and Technological Health Hub (ITHH), located on the municipality of Eusébio in the metropolitan region of Fortaleza.
The main objective of the Campus is to expand research laboratory areas related to the development and innovation of pharmaceuticals drugs, health equipment and materials, in addition to the development of scientific research directed to the environmental and epidemiological reality of the region and the dissemination of knowledge through post-graduate courses.
It is not enough that the educational facilities of the future are rational and efficient buildings. They must also be enriching physical surroundings for the students and staff, where everyday life will unfold in inspiring ways. Buildings should prepare and communicate the teaching situation and create the right environment for optimal learning.
‘Encounters’, ‘collaboration’ and ‘sharing knowledge’ are the main objectives of the design of the O|2 Lab Building. The remarkable building at the VU Campus on Amsterdam’s famous south axis more than fulfils this ambition. It facilitates scientific research in Human Life Sciences and is the first university building in the Netherlands designed especially for multi-institutional research. EGM architects is responsible for the design of the sustainable laboratory building.
On December 11, the new Centech premises were officially inaugurated in the former Dow Planetarium by the Director General of the École de technologie supérieure, Mr. Pierre Dumouchel, and by the Director of Technological Entrepreneurship and Innovation and Centech Executive Director, Mr. Richard Chénier, in the presence of the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, Mr. David Lametti, the Minister of Education and Higher Education, Mr. Jean-François Roberge and the Head of the Smart City, Information Technology, Innovation and Advanced Education Executive Committee for the City of Montreal, Mr. François William Croteau.
This project is not just a school, but a thriving eco system where work and education flow with different stages of learning and life.
Housing a nursery, primary school, an adult education facility, and an investment company, B Campus aspires to be a learning center for all ages and stations of life. The investment firm driving the project sees personal progress as the key to a global progress.
The first residential complex in Ukraine based on the block development principle, instead of customary Soviet micro-district type.
Different number of stories of adjacent buildings (ranging from 2 to 16 floors) forms a picturesque image of every street. A restored park with perennial trees, sculptures and a fountain, block development, pedestrian courtyards where you can play with children – all that makes this residential neighborhood intimate and cozy. It has set a new level of quality in a residential building due to the block development. Thus, the industrial territory turned into a good living environment and the status of the district as a whole increased. Residents have received a complex, comfortable environment with green pedestrian courtyards. Full infrastructural service includes fitness clubs, stores, kindergartens and schools.
Comfort Town is one of the most successful residential property projects in Ukraine. Sales indicators peaked at over 200 apartments per month.
The Forum building is the heart of the campus. The campus lacked a decisive image towards its surroundings, as a counterpart to Kortrijk Xpo. At the same time, the campus is defined, but not physically closed off from its environment. This results in an approachable and accessible campus for pedestrians. The aim of the development of the site is to increase the accessibility between Xpo and Campus, to expand the dynamics of the school to the street side and to integrate the campus in its surroundings.
Jestico + Whiles was appointed by the University of Cambridge to design the new Cavendish III Laboratory on its West Cambridge campus, replacing the existing facility on a nearby site.
The Cavendish is one of the most renowned physics laboratories in the world. Begun in 1874 and home to 29 Nobel laureates, its achievements include the discovery of both the electron and the neutron, and the identification of the structure of DNA.
The new Cavendish Laboratory will be home to the university’s Department of Physics, and will house over 15 research groups in both theoretical and experimental physics, providing advanced research facilities including cleanrooms, cryostat halls, microscopy suites, and laser and optical labs.
