Estación Marítima de Lanzarote in Spain by Romera arquitectosApril 6th, 2023 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Romera arquitectos The essential material of architecture is light, without it there would be no “volumes under the sun” or interior spaces. This project is built with simple, repetitive, and prefabricated materials: foundation, pillars, beams, floors, and facades…, but they are conceived and designed immersed in a luminous environment. The interior of the passenger terminal becomes a luminous experience, a way of confining light, in a box capable of modeling, directing, and modulating sunlight.

Article source: Domper arquitectura Located in a residential urbanization in Monzón (Huesca), the AURA building is made up of 14 single-family homes in a row, 12 of them between medians facing SE-NW, and 2 homes of three facades in the testeros. The front of the plot is configured as a private outdoor space, for public use, which provides each dwelling with a pedestrian and vehicle access zone, which allows its occupation as outdoor parking for vehicles. Behind it, the garage “boxes” are located, and among them, pedestrian access to each home. The main construction of 2 heights and the volume of 1-height garages are separated by a landscaped interior patio. On the rear façade are the gardens of each house, related to the day stays.

Article source: Romera arquitectos Projects do not always occur from freely made decisions, but sometimes as the by-product of external conditions that may have originally emerged as a problem but then evolve toward the substance. Projects emanate from unexpected associations of which, in most cases, we are unaware. Accordingly, it may seem as if projecting is equivalent to relating. It is a matter of compiling and then establishing relations between needs or functions, spaces, shapes, materials and experiences that surface at a given point in the project’s timeline, and we desperately try to capture and materialize.

Article source: Forgas arquitectes The new Cap Can Roca is located in the center of the facilities of Can Roca, in the north-west of Terrassa, with a constructed area of 2,000m2 and 400m2 of green spaces. The building occupies most of the available land, in order to be developed with the least number of floors. This allows easy access to users and optimal operation of the health activity.

Article source: MoDusArchitects Located in the small town of Laghetti (Egna Municipality, Bolzano) nearby the riverbanks of the Adige river, the building sits at the foothills of Mount Corno whose natural reserve park forms a dramatic backdrop to the sports facility. Infrastructural in character, Fieldhouse is wedged between a five-a-side football pitch to the north, the existing football field to the west and the steeping terrain to the east. With its low-lying body that transforms as it moves laterally along the site, Fieldhouse mutates from a retaining wall to a long linear roof to then become a raised groundscape that acts not only as a viewing platform for sporting events, but also as an outdoor venue for social occasions.

Article source: ZDA | ZUPELLI DESIGN ARCHITETTURA Decisive and peremptory lines silhouette geometric volumes, define sharp proportions, and give the project an aura of elegant rationality. Built from scratch in a markedly contemporary style, without concessions to stereotypes or superfluous “special effects”, but rather in harmony with the idea of new minimalism that characterises the ethos of ZDA, Casa Loti expresses and interprets an experience of living that is paradigmatic in this sense: great importance has been given to the role of light, amplified by the use of large windows and sharp angles.

To make the experience for the clients less stressful and to forget about the often dreaded medical procedures, calming elements such as an aquarium, plants, and a TV were placed in the space.

Article source: Vudafieri-Saverino Partners Blending into the peaceful Alpine landscape, the architecture integrates with the mountains to produce a forward-thinking hotel design that respects tradition and captures the spirit of its location. The new 5-star Falkensteiner Hotel Montafon, with a focus on families and sustainability, has opened its doors to the public. Nestled among the forests and peaks of a protected area of the Montafon, a valley in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg, it is the perfect holiday destination for enjoying the outdoors. While the architectural and landscape project was designed by Snøhetta Studio Innsbruck, the interior architecture and decoration are entirely down to the creative vision of Milanese studio Vudafieri-Saverino Partners.
Ichi Station Milan in Italy by MasquespacioApril 3rd, 2023 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Masquespacio Masquespacio presents the latest project it designed in Milan for sushi take away chain Ichi Station. Previously Ichi’s founder Yango Zhang developed already a few spaces for his sushi take away chain, although with this new opening he wanted to give major importance to the dine-in experience. The identity previously developed for Ichi’s spaces was inspired by a travel and a station. Thus, hereby Masquespacio proposed to evolve with that identity to a more conceptual one, maintaining its essence, but getting away from literal and traditional travel representations. For this, the Spanish design studio proposed a travel to the future through light.
