Thomé Beira da Silva House in Curitiba, Brazil by Marcos Bertoldi ArchitectsWednesday, April 27th, 2022Article source: Marcos Bertoldi Architects Land – implantation The lot, in a walled community, has approximately 1,800 sq m and a rectangular shape. It features a large plateau and a slight leaning in its vegetation-free area, bestowed with a native forest at the back, which goes far beyond its limits. The client fancied a house that stretched out into the gardens, where the boundaries between interior and exterior were not defined, having its leisure and living spaces on the same level as the external areas. Thus, the house is organized from the street to the back portion of the lot as a large continuous plan, going through its internal areas without a single step. The lateral parts of the land were excavated to give access to the garage and the secondary areas of the residence. The front facade faces east and the pool facade faces west, what guarantees the residence an adequate solar rotation to fulfill other plastic and functional demands intended by the project.

NISHIJI PROJECT in Chiba, Japan by KOMPASTuesday, April 26th, 2022Article source: KOMPAS The project site locates along Chiba-Kaido Avenue in the historical part of Nishifunabashi, Chiba, near the Sengen Shrine on the hill with lush pine forests. The client, an art collector operating a real estate business, planned to build a new building on his parents’ property to accommodate his family’s residence and his company’s galleries & offices. Besides his parents’ house on the northern end of the property, most areas of the linear site closer to the road were relatively unplanned, with an old warehouse building and car parks mixed in the lush vegetation. Thus, our first approach was to organize the entire site so that the two families’ lives and the workspaces coexist comfortably, arranging site circulation and developing a sloped garden moderating the level differences between the two buildings. The new building accommodates garages in the middle of GF and the residence on the quiet northern side facing the garden. The galleries & offices are vertically consolidated on the southern side towards the national road to be the main face of the building. Interpreting the client’s visions to this place, such as cultural commitment to the neighborhoods, attraction to external visitors, and utilization of suburban potentials, we aimed to incorporate publicness and versatility into the new building together with attractive design, like ‘museum with a house’ rather than ‘house with galleries.’  Image Courtesy © Vincent Hecht

Gale’s Residence in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia by GIBERT&TANSunday, April 24th, 2022Article source: GIBERT&TAN Gale’s Residence is a complete remodeling of a 1970s terrace house located in a hilly suburb of Kuala Lumpur. The brief was to reconfigure the layout and to transform an interior that was dark, cloistered, and suffered from many poorly designed spaces; into one that feels bright, spacious, and well organized. At the onset, lengthy conversations took place with the owner to either up-cycle the existing frame or instead extend with a second floor (a common scenario in the region with the underlying motive to optimize value). The final decision to up-cycle and to dwell in optimizing the one-storey model resulted from the owner’s desire to enhance the building’s original character.  Image Courtesy © Pixelaw Photography
