The Miguel Hidalgo Park, in León, Guanajuato, Mexico, had been increasingly abandoned, given its unattractive structural characteristics, so our recovery work consisted of restoring its primary vocation at the service of the people.
The work included active and passive recreation areas, spaces where you can spend time, either sitting or walking, an intervention strategy in the landscaping area, and a space for outdoor performances. The objective is to convert it into a meeting point.
The rescue project clearly solved the main and secondary circulations with the creation of small squares in strategic places, which generate meeting points, the concentration of youth and children’s recreation areas, the integration of an activity track for urban sports and the redesign of the service modules, as well as the recovery of the open-air entertainment forum.
In the landscaping project, the rescue of endemic species, the sanitation and reforestation of the existing areas was proposed, in addition to the proposal of free transit through the green areas, which are now provided with urban furniture to promote the meeting, the opportunity to sit down to talk and share everyday life. The project takes advantage of the benefits of having a wastewater treatment plant located in the western part of the park, which will guarantee its constant irrigation.
The materials used seek to maintain a neutral color range in an attempt to maintain and highlight the brightness of the \”green\” tonality and textures, thus the external pavements and the buildings are manifested in apparent concrete, the pavements of the squares were made in flagstone with a subtle gesture in a red tone, and the pavement of the main circulation axis creates a rhythm with pieces in different sizes and cloths.
The street furniture meets the needs of the public space through three simple designs, defined by simple geometric lines, while providing a utilitarian solution to the passerby, whether it is to park the bicycle or carry out different urban activities.
The rehabilitation actions were carried out knowing and understanding the user, who in this way becomes the central figure, as an inherent element of the space, since it serves for the construction and consolidation of citizenship. Parque Hidalgo now has the capacity to host the urban acts that our society demands, in addition to having become an important social and economic detonator for the Barrio Arriba area.
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.
This multifunctional project is the result of a conceptual development of the territories of the Levoberezovsky village, located near Kislovodsk and Narzan. Massive ecological resort occupies two sites with more than 4 hectares of land – so called “Rock” territory and “Market Square” landfill. The authors of the project decided to position two main functional areas – a thermal complex and a market cluster – separately, as well as to design a large- scale park area, which will become the basis for the development of the planned territory “Park of Ponds” (gardens, pavilions, hotel villas farmer schools).
As one of the focal developing districts located in western Beijing that comprised of three zones, Shougang is a cradle for high-end industries which leads to the green transformation of traditional industries. Aedas Global Design Principal Dr. Andy Wen and Executive Director Zi Huan Lin led the team to create a mixed-use commercial complex on the southeast part of economic zone.
An important aspect of the Christian Community Centre of the Brethren Church in Kladno is not only spiritual programmes but also leisure activities for children, youth and adults, care for the people in need, support for people with serious illnesses, the physically disabled or people in crisis situations.
The original multi-storey building in a terraced development, with no access to the garden and with many operational restrictions, was not suitable for these activities. The new centre required finding a suitable location and creating an operational prayer facility that would also include classrooms, a small café, office and garden area, thus supporting the wider community activities and enabling them to develop further.
The project is located in Tuanshi Village, Xiaonanhai Town, which belongs to Longyou County, the city of Quzhou. It faces Qujiang River on the south, with G60 Shanghai-Kunming Expressway on the north side, and the Xihuxian Road passing nearby. Across the road from the site is the Qujiang River, providing a wide view of scenery. The project’s site was originally an elementary school, and later located the factory of an enterprise, with buildings in poor condition. The surrounding area is mainly occupied by waterfront residences of the villagers, and in the front of the site, a memorial archway of chastity and filial piety, built in Qing Dynasty in year 1790, has been preserved.

This core community building in the Kozakai district of Toyokawa contains a community center, library, children’s center, and city hall branch office. The design was selected in a 2017 competition. The spatial appeal of a mixed-use buildings such as this comes largely from its handling of common areas. While individual spaces such as the meeting rooms, music studio, event hall, and kitchen are of course also important, it is the natural overflow of sounds, sights, and other hints of activity into the common areas that gives the facility as a whole its vibrancy.
