Conversion of three pumpstations along The Skjern river in Denmark by Johansen Skovsted Arkitekter

Thursday, January 5th, 2017

Article source: Johansen Skovsted Arkitekter 

As a result of the restoration of the Skjern River basin in 2002, a vast and rich natural area has arisen, becoming an attractive visitor destination. A framework for the new life of the area has been provided with the rebuilding and extension of three pump stations, in the form of exhibition spaces, indoor and outdoor viewpoints to look out over the landscape, rooms for the organisation of events, and better accessibility.

MIKVEH “Ramat Shalom” in México City, Mexico by Pascal Arquitectos

Tuesday, March 31st, 2015

Article source: Pascal Arquitectos

This is the Jewish ritual purification bath.  It can be only performed in fresh spring water, or in a specially dedicated place fed by rain water which has to be collected, stored and communicated to the bath recipient which is called the Mikveh.  All of this, has to be done following a series of very strict rules regarding the status of purity of the water.  These rules include also the use of the materials, architectural measures and water treatment.
