Levitt Bernstein and TKMT architectes designed a new visitor centre as part of the Institut Laue-Langevin campus in Grenoble, a pan-European initiative providing neutrons to visiting researchers for experiments and analysis at the molecular level. The new building will give access to the institute’s array of state-of-the-art equipment and provide scientists with a base for their work. Also included are new conference facilities, bookable lab space and healthcare support. Inspired by the nearby neutron accelerator, the design of the building takes its cues from specific scientific methods, while also creating highly functional, multipurpose spaces.

The project is located in Tuanshi Village, Xiaonanhai Town, which belongs to Longyou County, the city of Quzhou. It faces Qujiang River on the south, with G60 Shanghai-Kunming Expressway on the north side, and the Xihuxian Road passing nearby. Across the road from the site is the Qujiang River, providing a wide view of scenery. The project’s site was originally an elementary school, and later located the factory of an enterprise, with buildings in poor condition. The surrounding area is mainly occupied by waterfront residences of the villagers, and in the front of the site, a memorial archway of chastity and filial piety, built in Qing Dynasty in year 1790, has been preserved.

Hale Lana in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii by Olson Kundig

This family retreat on Hawaii’s Big Island takes the form of several canopy-like pavilions dispersed around the site, linked by elevated wooden lanais and a series of gardens. Hale Lana, which translates to “floating home,” appears to hover over the site’s lava fields and dense gardens. The home takes a position at the ecotone line between the heavily landscaped area, and the expansive ocean views which stretch to Haleakalā volcano on nearby Maui. The ultimate design goal was to balance transparency and enclosure to create a home that would function for the couple, their extended family, and for large gatherings, while maximizing connection to the Hawaiian climate and landscape.

19-059_TUX in Montreal, Canada by DESK architectes

Located on Plaza Saint-Hubert, one of Montreal’s classic commercial strip, TUX’s new head offices reflect the dynamic and creative values of this marketing company. Two existing buildings were merged as one and, while TUX’s offices occupy a whole level, other uses have taken place in the building to create a mixed and diversified program.

The project’s program includes a cafe on the ground floor, directly connected to the plaza through the front facade. As you move past the cafe, a photo studio and a cafeteria then follow and open to the rear alleyway. On the second floor, a vast and opened workspace is bathed in abundant natural light coming from skylights and large windows. Then, a third floor has been added to the structure to house a family in a large residential penthouse.

With the condition of the project’s site location having 20 meters width and 80 meters long which is considered as a challenging land type in the design of single detached houses in the city. One of design criteria comes from the owner’s request, he loves to write and read books and always exercises to keep himself to be in a good health.

The transformation this property has undergone is certainly impressive. The ground floor apartment already had a super spacious private area, but it was barren and neglected. The interior was quite dark, with closed, small and poorly ventilated rooms.

Stairs building in Yokohama, Japan by Shinsuke Fujii Architects

 
December 29th, 2022 by Sumit Singhal

Article source: Shinsuke Fujii Architects

We planned a three-story tenant building in a very small site with 28 m2. A landing for the stairs was created to match the deformed site, and the space was effectively used as a dining space with a counter.

In addition, the space under the stairs was planned to be used as a toilet and storage for each tenant.

The movement of people going up and down the stairs creates the façade of the building.
