Article source: COOKFOX Architects The land that is now City Hall Park has a long and rich history as a green space and public commons. Portions of the commons have been used as grounds for a 1691 almshouse, a cemetery, and the British military. During the Revolutionary War it also became a place of protest, with five “Liberty Poles” erected between 1770 and 1776. When the war was won it was chosen as the site for the new City Hall. For a brief period at the end of the 19th Century the southern portion was home to New York’s Central Post Office, but was returned to open, public space in 1910. As a result of the park’s enduring history as civic gathering space, the city has organized itself around it, creating a green urban room walled with a historical tapestry of architecture. 25 Park Row sits at the southeastern border of City Hall Park, across from the iconic 1913 Woolworth Building. COOKFOX’s vision for its design was to complete the urban room, taking inspiration from, and complementing the historical architecture around it, while crafting a building that stands on its own as an example of beautiful biophilic design.

Article source: TAGIR FATTORI ARQUITETURA – TFA Located in Caxias do Sul, the building occupies a wide corner, due to the pre-condition of large roads, making them very wide and of great flow. Low-rise and small-scale buildings occupy the surroundings. In this scenario, the building becomes a protagonist, being the focal point for people and vehicles wich pass by. The commercial building has seven floors: parking basement, three ground floor shops with mezzanine, three floors with four commercial offices each and technical space. The smaller scale of the building (the total constructed area is about 2,000 m²) and the insertion in a corner allowed us to “sculpt” the primary prism and transform it.

Pier 31 in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil by TAGIR FATTORI ARQUITETURA – TFAAugust 22nd, 2022 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: TAGIR FATTORI ARQUITETURA – TFA Pier 31 is a multi-family residential building worthy of a small, thriving and growing city. The building is located in a high point of the city of Flores da Cunha, in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul – Brazil, a municipality that stands out for its wine production and furniture manufacturing, balancing innovation and tradition. Therefore, Pier 31 could not be much different: the building was conceived on a relatively narrow site, with contemporary design and only four floors intended for apartments with generally traditional floor plans. The project’s differential lies precisely in the contemporary design: unusual for the region, but still respecting the urban scale and occasionally bringing some elements common to the city’s culture to the façade and interiors, such as wood, vegetation, and the metal railing. In addition, although the plans have followed a more restrained and traditional configuration, Pier 31 has brought two new products to the city: a linear penthouse apartment with incredible views and two lean one-bedroom duplex apartments with floor-to-ceiling windows that also enjoy the views of this high point of the region.
