Renovation of an alpine barn in Canale D’agordo, Italy by SBSA – Sandri Barbara Smaniotto Andrea Architetti AssociatiThursday, April 6th, 2017Article source: SBSA – Sandri Barbara Smaniotto Andrea Architetti Associati The original building dates back to the beginning of the 20th century and it is an example of the so-called “tabià”, a typical alpine construction, famous in our region Veneto which was used in farmer times as stables and barn. The structural type of this tabià is called “a telaio” with wooden beams and pillars. Since it is placed on a sloping ground, the tabià has a partially buried basement, composed by walls made of stone.  Image Courtesy © Renato Gianturco
Villa Agava in Casablanca, Morocco by Driss Kettani ArchitecteTuesday, March 7th, 2017Article source: Driss Kettani Architecte This house is projected on a north-south oriented plot and features a blind façade on the street while being largely open on the side and the back with the south oriented garden.

House M in Möhlin, Switzerland by Jan Skuratowski ArchitekturWednesday, March 1st, 2017Article source: Jan Skuratowski Architektur The new single-family house was designed as a separate residential unit and can hold its own next to the existing building from the 80s. It is situated on a partly raised plateau in the south-eastern part of the property. The two buildings differ in their roof design and thus emphasize their autonomy. At the same time, the new building paraphrases the existing building’s design: by its polygonal ground plan, which follows the hill’s shape, and expressive cantilevered floors. Wood was used a material to contrast the rather heavy sand-lime brick of the existing structure. Hierarchically, the new building is supposed to subordinate to the existing building and is therefore set slightly to the rear of the site. The new structure appears like a pavilion and, thanks to the flat roof, has a large accessible roof terrace that expands the small plot effectively. The greening of the roofs is intended to give the new building an animated character and link it with nature and the hill.  Image Courtesy © Simon Menges

Quinta do Carregal in Tondela, Portugal by WAATAA_we are all together around architectureTuesday, February 7th, 2017Article source: WAATAA_we are all together around architecture In a seemingly infinite territory and mostly occupied by pines and oaks, the implantation of the house marks a space and an intention. A space of pause, serenity and breathing, surrounded and protected by the green patch that filters the light and the eyesight, purifies the air and the soul and stimulates the corporal senses of who let himself be seduced by the elements of nature. An intention of materializing a perennial refuge that transforms and adapts itself to the site’s conditions and to the family that inhabits it.  Image Courtesy © WAATAA PHOTOGRAPHY
