Senior Home Interwoven in the City - Located on a serene, green street in central Tokyo, the Nibankan (Phase 2 building) defies the conventional notion of elder care homes. Rather than isolating seniors from the city, we propose a new Nursing Home that allows them to embrace urban life, living with dignity and comfort. Japan's rapidly aging population faces issues involving isolation and a shortage of care workers. Our response to this is a home that preserves the health and agency of elderly citizens through community integration. We designed the Nibankan to seamlessly blend with the local society and society. The strategic positioning of spaces on a continuum of distance from the neighborhood empowers residents to control their level of engagement with the community. The design features dining rooms, salons, and lounges that open to and face the street. This fosters casual interaction with neighbors. The communal dining room serves as a stage for public collaborative events, brid...

Built in 1936, Magy Apartment was a historical residential building on Wulumuqi Road in Shanghai. The client rented a small studio on the upper floor, eager to have “a comfortable interior that one would feel poised even being confined for a few months”. The architect designed the project in a special condition from March to May in 2022 when the city was locked down. http://dlvr.it/SynmPj

A new public realm. Arcloud is a large mixed-use development located at the foot of the Geomdansan mountain on the eastern edge of Seoul. The entire development - a mix of larger housing blocks, single-family units, commercial, recreational, and educational facilities. The Arcloud shopping mall, its name somewhat deceiving, since it encompasses much more: it is a modern hybrid city block, a stacked city that combines retail, housing, public facilities, underground parking, rooftop parks, and a central plaza- aiming to become the lively center of this new Seoul residential area. http://dlvr.it/SynmJ0

A TM House is a T4 typology house, located in the parish of Lamelas - a predominantly rustic area - located on the south side of Santo Tirso. http://dlvr.it/Synm8H

Urban environments are constantly evolving, with cities becoming the hubs of cultural diversity and economic life. In fact, the globe is speeding towards a future in which 70% of people will live in cities by 2050. Architects are at the core of this revolutionary movement, rethinking the nature of a city due to this urban surge. In response to this immense focus on newer and more diverse cities, architects and designers are leaning towards multifunctional and mixed-use projects. Attracting diverse crowds of people, mixed-use architecture explores the maximum potential of what a structure can serve. http://dlvr.it/SynDv6

Resting gracefully amidst the sublime landscapes of Grün Resort Uluwatu, a family-run nature-focused luxury boutique resort in Uluwatu, Bali, the Treehouse Villa introduces a new paradigm in sustainable luxury. This villa encompasses 7 distinct units seamlessly woven into the surrounding verdant tapestry, embodying an exquisite synthesis of contemporary design and ecological reverence. http://dlvr.it/Sym2w8

This architectural endeavor embodies a poetic symphony of change and diversity, a dwelling that hosts three generations, a family of nine. While the dwelling primarily cradles the two elders, it metamorphoses into a lively space during weekends, festivals, and the radiant embrace of summer, welcoming the laughter of children. This 400-square-meter place should serve old and young, every family member, and also a place that allows humans to find solace in the company of others. Rather than crafting a singular, imposing structure, our aim is to create a reminiscence of the intricate scenes portrayed in the paintings of Peter Bruegel, where every detail weaves its own unique story into the fabric of existence. In a world dominated by standardized living spaces, how do we provide a realm where diverse forms, scales, and the interplay of light and shadow bring forth a rich tapestry of life? Our exploration unfolds through staggered sequences, unveiling possibilities for a living narrative t...

The structure is a small garden pavilion made almost entirely of timber. It is located inside a large private garden open to neighbors and invited guests for social and educational events. Primarily, it functions as a space for the owner to enjoy the garden and socialize with friends and neighbors. In addition to private enjoyment and informal socializing, it is intended for educational workshops (business literacy) for women in the neighborhood and the playful, hands-on education of young children.  http://dlvr.it/SylP9Z

The two projects carried out by Studio had as their convergence the objective of corresponding to the magnitude of the space in which they are located and the elements that surround it. The first one to be carried out was the Pavilion with the leisure area, whose program presents a pool, barbecue area, gourmet kitchen, cellar, game area, spa, massage room, and gym; all these spaces are distributed in a functional way in an open and connected floor plan, ideal for holding meetings, attending to the client's briefing - who is always receiving friends and family for celebrations.  http://dlvr.it/SylP0C

The apartment complex stands on a site facing a shopping street. http://dlvr.it/Syl13y

‘ocio’ means rest or relaxation space. As coffee culture became popular, it was intended to embody the mental relaxation felt while drinking coffee rather than simply drinking and savoring coffee. The intention was to draw visual attention to the exterior with 'stainless steel,' and the red wave bricks stacked high from the second to third floors enhanced the volume of the building. http://dlvr.it/SykDdk

FLEXIBLE BOARD is an important element in this project. The project switches materials for each zoning. The flexible board was selected as the product that symbolizes the pathway and as a matte material that matches the wall surface with a texture similar to the concrete of the approach. http://dlvr.it/Syjk21

Site. This project is located on the first floor of the main building of Mix Island Sicily Village in Beijing, the original building condition is a large space with open space and a mezzanine, In terms of space design, we draw inspiration from the nature and adopt the concept of "taking shape in nature" to divide multiple dining areas, form a small rainforest tribe, and establish a subtropical style bar that echoes the holiday wind of Sicily Village. http://dlvr.it/Syjjxn

For the Quebec Fast Food Chain “Jack Le Coq” (French for “Jack the Rooster”), the Interior Design Firm XY CONTEMPORARY took inspiration from the restaurant’s owner, Jack Gaspo. Jack’s creative direction for the design team at XY Contemporary was to draw inspiration from typical 50s diners and infuse it with modern decor elements, not typically attributed to color. http://dlvr.it/Syjjr8

Today, architecture has become - or is in the process of becoming - more flexible and individualistic to accommodate people's diverse lifestyles and spatial needs. With this adaptation, the residential typology has changed and living rooms have become endangered. Many insist on the need of having a space dedicated to relaxation and leisure, while others claim it is simply a waste of space and money. This debate raised an important question: do we still need living/sitting rooms? In this interior focus, we will look at how living rooms evolved through the years, and how architects readapted and integrated the concept of “gathering space” in contemporary residential architecture. http://dlvr.it/SyjLH0

Located on the west bank of the Huangpu River (West Bund), which runs north-to-south through Shanghai, this project comprises four buildings, including two skyscrapers. Nikken Sekkei was selected in an international design competition in 2009 to lead a new urban development on the site of the former local Longhua Airport. The firm has been involved in local area urban and architectural design for over a decade. The most distinctive feature of the project is the "wind design" of the overall layout and the shape of the building volumes. The shape and exterior of the buildings, the public spaces in the commercial zone, the landscaping, and the interior designs reflect wind-generated streamlining. This concept runs through the entire project. http://dlvr.it/SyhWkj

The lift halts on the 11th floor, a softly lit entrance foyer, recessed to create a welcoming feel with a bright artwork against a neutral grey wall contrasted by the black terrazzo floor, an eight feet wide door with its wood carved handle, stands ready for a handshake. As the wooden door pivots open, a straight wooden wall directs one towards a large curved cast-in-situ concrete plane, drawing the eyes towards a living room flooded with natural light further to the landscaped balcony. The living room is tucked between three curved concrete walls; the first warp an existing sheer wall while the second and third cups the Parent’s bath and kitchen store, respectively. http://dlvr.it/Sygxn5

Located in a new urban area, far from the city center with low-density development surrounded by Cam Le River, the construction area has a relatively clean climate. PsA House is a place to live combined with a working office, so the functional layout has many special features. The architect desires to form a house that is simple in detail, minimalist in materials used, and durable over time, adapting to the harsh climate of Central Vietnam. http://dlvr.it/Sydtny

Tokamachi is an area of severe wilderness where cold air from the land and warm currents from the Sea of Japan collide with the Echigo Sanzan mountains, resulting in a lot of snowfall. In Tokamachi, a traditional event called "Honyara-do" has been passed down from generation to generation. "Honyara-do" is where everyone gathers to eat, play, enjoy, and learn, a scene that has continued in this area for a long time. The new school building is a place like "Honyara-do" that is "regardless of the season." http://dlvr.it/SydRyN

Casa Jungla is a single-family residence located in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. This region is characterized by its natural richness, proximity to a variety of beaches, and a tropical rainforest environment. The property is situated in an area with limited urban development, featuring rugged terrain and a forested area at the rear. http://dlvr.it/SydRp7

The construction of the house's space sought mainly to propose a peculiar and free spatiality for a beach house and also to promote sometimes the integration of space and people, sometimes the intimacy and separation of environments. http://dlvr.it/SydRg7

Although more related to evolutionary aspects than to architecture itself, the inherent physical fragility of human beings has required, since prehistoric times, that we protect our bodies and our buildings from external elements. As an example, beginning with the primitive huts used in the earliest forms of domestic architecture, furs were employed as an exterior covering to restrict the flow of air and, consequently, regulate the interior environment. http://dlvr.it/SyctVv

Caojiagou is a tributary of the Huangpu River, which is excluded from the key channel system of Shanghai. In contrast to the renowned Huangpu River or Suzhou Creek, the Caojiagou riverfront appeared to be enclosed, poorly maintained, desolated and lacked interaction with local inhabitants and urban functionalities before renewal. So how to transform the small channel side space from the back side of the urban landscape to the front side of public daily life is the key point of the renewal design. http://dlvr.it/SybH5Q

It was about designing the architectural project of a residential building for the corner lot located at the intersection of Castilho Street and Padre António Vieira. Until then, there was an office building - designed by architect Tomás Taveira - to which the new owner decided to give a new use, apartments, according to the high standards already present in the area. Among other buildings, the former Hotel Ritz. http://dlvr.it/SyZZJd

Snøhetta has just released construction images showing the progress on the studio’s long-awaited Shanghai Grand Opera House in China. With its iconic fan-shaped roof, the firm has been commissioned the scheme in 2019 following an international design competition. The project is set to be completed in 2025, seeking to attract a broad audience for traditional, classical, and experimental performances. http://dlvr.it/SyZG9q

A mirage can refer to an optical phenomenon caused by the refraction of light on certain surfaces, creating the illusion of a liquefied appearance. It can also represent an illusion, where something appears to be different from what it actually is. Paul Clemence capitalizes on this dual interpretation in his photographic essay, Modern Mirage, which features Casa do Baile (now the Reference Center for Architecture, Urbanism, and Design), the Art Museum, and the Church of Pampulha. He captures these iconic structures as they are reflected in the water mirrors of the modern complex designed by Oscar Niemeyer in Belo Horizonte, MG. http://dlvr.it/SyZFt5

Sharjah, the captivating territory in the United Arab Emirates, is a cultural hub that blends tradition with contemporary modernity. Situated on the Arabian coastline, the city is known for its commitment to preserving its rich history, promoting the arts and culture, and providing a platform for creative and intellectual pursuits. In fact, the 2023 Sharjah Architecture Triennial (SAT) will take place from November 11, 2023, to March 10, 2024, under the theme "The Beauty of Impermanence: An Architecture of Adaptability." The Triennial is curated by Tosin Oshinowo, exploring innovative design solutions emerging from conditions of scarcity in the Global South. http://dlvr.it/SyZFYW

The Store was designed to highlight the beauty and perfection with which Lolitta's clothes are made. We started with the idea of creating a space without excesses, where the clothes become the protagonist. For this purpose, the project is entirely done in a single color and the same tone of light, generating a certain sensation of virtual reality. http://dlvr.it/SyWxM5

Last week in Cairo, CulturVator – Art D’Egypte launched its third edition of the annual international exhibition “Forever is Now.” Set by the backdrop of the Great Pyramids of Giza, the display features the work of 14 international artists. In essence, the exhibition “underscores the significance of cultural exchange among artists at the core of history and ancient Egyptian civilization.” http://dlvr.it/SyWd1t

The term "rede" in Portuguese traditionally conveys the idea of an interweaving of wires. In a contemporary context, it takes on a broader meaning related to connection, collaboration, and integration, whether among ideas, people, or processes. Not coincidentally, these are the core principles of Rede Arquitetos, a collaborative architecture studio founded in 2011 in Fortaleza, Ceará, by architects Bruno Perdigão, Epifanio Almeida, Igor Ribeiro, and Bruno Braga. Presently, the team is led by Braga, Luiz Cattony, and João Torquato, with their main approach emphasizing collective work and valuing encounters over the domination of ideas as a strategy for achieving the best solutions. http://dlvr.it/SyWcn4

Ever since humans first looked up towards the heavens, we’ve wondered what is up there. From 1923 when Edwin Hubble first discovered galaxies beyond our own, our hunger and obsession for knowledge of the cosmos has grown almost as quickly as the universe itself. http://dlvr.it/SyWcXM

Designed in a residential condominium with abundant endemic vegetation, the main premise of the project was to find a symbiosis between architecture and landscape. Seen from the outside, solid volumes of concrete predominate, giving the sensation of fluctuating over the vegetation. The morphology and layout of the volumes result from respect for the largest existing trees. http://dlvr.it/SyTXnZ

A summer house for a family from São Paulo with the dream of escaping the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoying moments with their family at a slower pace. Located in Itu, SP, and surrounded by preserved green areas, Casa da Mata was designed with accessibility in mind for the family. The living room is integrated with the kitchen, TV room, gourmet balcony, and social area, all designed to bring family and friends together. http://dlvr.it/SyTHyV

Amid our ongoing battle against climate change, the need for authentic decarbonization strategies has never been more urgent. Professions, companies, and organizations worldwide face mounting pressure to integrate sustainable practices into their operations, particularly in response to recent climate challenges. The realm of architecture and urban planning is no exception. Phrases such as "sustainable architecture" and "green architecture" have gained widespread popularity, accompanied by various certifications, products, and advertising, all promising transformative advancements in the field that should align with our global aspirations for a sustainable future. http://dlvr.it/SySzdR

In the dynamic landscape of contemporary urban development, public architecture is an essential force in reshaping cities. In fact, this element of urban regeneration can revitalize economies and reactivate surrounding commercial schemes. In this transformative era, cities across China have evolved into financial hubs, attracting world-renowned firms and architects who are redefining these skylines. In turn, these metropolises become embodiments of future innovation and lifestyle. http://dlvr.it/SySzPB

The new police station is robust and transparent at the same time. This is in line with the police's wish to create a building that simultaneously can be accessible and safe. http://dlvr.it/SyQXxX

The “Green Heart” Of City. Nature Flows Into Commercial Space. The Suzhou River Park allocates a valuable ground floor area to public space, even weakening the entrance to the sunken commercial area to enhance the perception of the site as a public space. Carefully selected and arranged, different types of plants are found above ground and below ground. Even within the underground commercial area, every available space is utilized to the fullest extent possible in order to enhance the greenery. http://dlvr.it/SyQXmg

Stellar Isle(Xing Yu), situated in the Chaichanglong (Fairy Li) urban regeneration and redevelopment area in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, China, is the largest and most distinctive new-built cultural leisure building in the area. Chaichanglong is the first organic urban renewal area in the old town of Shaoxing, located opposite to the former residence of revolutionary legend Qiu Jin, with Xianheng Hotel to the east and Pagoda Hill to the north. After five years of renovation and regeneration, it has become a comprehensive cultural, commercial, and tourist district. http://dlvr.it/SyQXZ6

The project area is in Suluca village in Lapseki, at the northern end of Çanakkale province in Turkey. Ergin House is the residence of a small family, situated 500 meters away from the Dardanelles Strait which connects Aegean Sea and Marmara Sea. Designing single family homes is one of the most challenging subjects of architecture. During the design phase, a close relationship should formed between the designer and the user. Although the house is a small building, the designer should increase the level of understanding with the user, spend an intense effort and attention. http://dlvr.it/SyQX6N

In the smallest floor plate that we have ever undertook, the foremost design intent of ANAGRAM was to present the making of specialty coffee as an ART, a DISPLAY of showmanship between the barista, his CRAFT and the produce. By positioning the main counter right in the middle of this tiny hole-in-the-wall, the process of creating a cup of coffee takes centre-stage in this arena. The counter is of considerable size in comparison to the tight space, but like a thrust stage in a theatrical setting, its objective was to elevate the intimacy between the barista (actor) and his customers (audience). Similarly, the form of the counter had been deliberately designed as irregular, with two raised platforms at the ends, serving as a bar and POS (point of sale). This way, the customers become spectators actively participating in a performance, creating a smooth interaction between barista-and-customer. http://dlvr.it/SyNpFn

The Shanghai Xuhui West Bund Riverside Walk is a world-class urban space with diverse lifestyles that bring together art, sports, dining, and leisure life. The brand spirit of the Pluto/Liquid of ideas is to deliver an undefined paradigm of future life. Therefore, Pluto Xuhui West Bund Coffee Station (Pluto X) aims to introduce the collision of coffee and art to this iconic waterfront space, creating a dialogue with the urban background in a seemingly small volume. http://dlvr.it/SyNp2T

“Tetra Food Hall” is a three-level commercial building with an area of 600 m2. It’s located on Kianabad Street in Ahvaz with different functions such as a café, restaurant, and pastry bakery. The building was previously covered with a flat stone façade without any architectural value neighboring mostly tall brick buildings. Thus, the client proposed a design matching not only the surrounding buildings but also being unique in context. With these in mind, the first goal was to maintain the harmony of the building with the city and to create a new typology to attract any passerby.  http://dlvr.it/SyNnqB

Located in the high Jardim Botânico, the IS 100 house values quality of life and well-being, surrounded by nature and fresh air.

Architectural Studio Symmetry recently completed work on the restoration project of the square tower of the Lviv Citadel. The tower was built in the 1850s as part of the Citadel defense complex on one of the Lviv hills. At that time, Lviv was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Venetian Arsenal was the model of the architectural style for the Austrian military construction, in particular on the objects of the Galicia-Carpathian line. The neoclassical tradition formed the basis of the romantic-medieval stylization of Austrian military buildings in the middle of the 19th century, such as the military arsenal in Vienna, the Home for the disabled in Lviv, and the Lviv Citadel. http://dlvr.it/SyNnKs
