English writer Thomas Quincy talked in his classic (Confessions of an English opium-eater) of the pleasure that, after making sure all possible victims and risk were absent, a burning building can provide, one century after, Austrian pyromaniacs of Coop-himelblau used fire as a material in their firsts architectural interventions and Swiss French Bernard Tschumi theorized, radical, an architecture that produced a pyrotechnical pleasure so useful, he stated, as lighting matches.

Designed by HWKN (Hollwich Kushner) ”UNIQLO CUBES,” have arrived in New York City, opening today, July 28th at the Highline Rink at 30th St. and 10th Ave. The two cubes celebrate UNIQLO’s innovative yet classic apparel in jewel-like architectural packages.
Oversized and multicoloured parquet – a spatial idea.
Departing from Swedish traditional use of colours and patterns, this apartment design is inspired by the unusual quality of the location at the park Humlegården. A long row of rooms relate to the massive greenery outside. Light and colour change with the season and become very present in the interior spaces; from winter grey and black, through summertime bright and deep greens, to orange, red and yellow in autumn.
