Ningbo Xikou Da’ai Academy Town in China by MCM Architecture Planning and Design OfficeOctober 30th, 2018 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: MCM Architecture Planning and Design Office You could see mountains You could see waters Hidden in mountains and waters… The Chinese people pay attention to the harmonious unity between man and nature. As for place for the elderly, they pay more attention to the full integration with the environment. The project is located in the Village of Zhuangyuanao, Xikou Town, Ningbo, surrounded by mountains. It is backed by Huajian Mountain and Bogu Mountain. The terrain is high, and sometimes the clouds are steaming like thick ink and sometimes like a traditional Chinese painting, and the surrounding mountains and colorful walls are reflected in the water. In the water, people, architecture and nature are integrated into one, like a landscape painting that is slowly unfolding.  School-town-experience-hall-1, Image Courtesy © Chen Wei
House Floating in The Air in Taipei City, Taiwan by 317studioOctober 30th, 2018 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: 317studio This residential project is located at a half-way down the hill. On the 23th floor of the building, the view outside is at a perfect height to watch over bushy tree tops and peak. We asked ourselves how to maximize the relationship between inside and outside? When we look up at the building, it’s just like a tree house, Like” an imagine of tree floating in the air”.  Image Courtesy © Kyle Yu

Article source: P11 ARQUITECTOS “Un Patio” is a single-family housing project, located north of the city of Mérida in the state of Yucatán, on a rectangular plot of approximately 24 x 39 m, oriented east-west. The project is planned for a family where coexistence with art is fundamental, a central space is conceptualized, where the art, the user and the natural elements converge daily, resulting in a quadrangle containing a concentric central courtyard , which responds to a set of intersected volumes.

Article source: masparti The site is located on a hill below the forest, almost at the end of the street. Building activity in this neighbourhood began in the inter-war period, when large villas of several floors were built. In the course of the following years the place became more dense as the original gardens were divided into smaller lots, where newer houses of smaller–scale started to appear.

Article source: GOTTESMAN ARCHITECTURE Gottesman Architecture in collaboration with GSArch, unveil POSTSCRIPT, a modern, minimal, private home located in Kfar Shmaryahu, Israel. It is the first private home undertaken by Architect Asaf Gottesman in over a decade. Approached by a former client, this project offered an opportunity to re-sharpen old skills and to rekindle a discourse with both clients and friends. The result is a deceivingly simple design that appears both effortless and unassuming. Cast in situ in fair-faced concrete, POSTSCRIPT reflects a preoccupation with meticulous detailing. Designed for a large and growing family, the home unifies several narratives while underlining the importance of the family nucleus.  Image Courtesy © Omri Amsalem

Article source: APPAREIL Architecture APPAREIL Architecture rose to the challenge of designing a Mile-End café-boutique overflowing with colors and daring. The 1500 square foot space houses a café, artisans’ workshops, and a boutique space where local creations are showcased. In approaching the APPAREIL Architecture firm, the couple who owns the space, Gabriel Malenfant, member of the band Radio Radio, and Véronique Orban de Xivry, founder of the brand Bouquet, wished to create a hybrid space that combined a café with a workshop-boutique. This unique collaborative spirit is expressed in APPAREIL Architecture’s proposition through overlapping spaces which allow customers to gain an exclusive glimpse at the creation workshop, all while enjoying a coffee.

Article source: DESK architectes Located on the banks of the St. Lawrence River in Sorel, the residence is positioned to benefit from the natural topography of the site. From the road, the long and narrow land is relatively flat over most of its area, except at the end of the lot where a significant height difference makes it possible to reach the river. This characteristic determined the location of the residence; an opportunity to have a garden level totally open on the river.  Image Courtesy © Maxime Brouillet

Article source: Alvaro Moragrega / arquitecto Casa L&J sits next to a golf course which influenced the project greatly. An equilibrium between the views and privacy was to be achieved for the clients. The result is an L scheme with the main volume of the house serving as barrier between the private areas and golf course. This volume is done entirely in steel and glass with a pitched roof with black, flat tiles. Said volume functions as a ‘shotgun shack’: an elongated distribution of spaces that permeates from the very public to the private. On one end, where the main entrance is, a great living room has a fireplace, living area, piano and dining area. A stair case is located on one side next to wooden box that encloses the bar and storage area. This piece of fixed furniture intentionally blocks the views towards the garden and forces the user to contemplate the golf course. Next to the dining room a rammed earth volume, which contains the pantry, laundry room and guest bathroom, separates the great living room from the kitchen and family room, which operates oposite to the living area. It is enclosed by a similar fixed piece of furniture that houses part of the kitchen, a book case with the TV and a small stove. It blocks the view from the golf course and forces itself toward the garden and pool area. Next to the family room, a double hight art studio es located at the end of the volume and has it’s own work patio on one end and on the other the hallway that connects to the bedroom wing of the house.

Article source: NAM Arq + NUA arquitectures The proposal is based on the will by the City Hall of Enabling the lobby of the current Teatre de Torredembarra. We believe that the Torrencs deserve much more than a hallway enabled in an abandoned theater. Regardless of its current state and its architecture, the building is now a faulty reference point in a gray period for the history of Torredembarra.  Image Courtesy © José Hevia
