Expandable House, Batam Riau Islands
The expandable house combines a conventional steel-reinforced concrete frame with an aerated concrete block cladding and an innovative composite bamboo cladding:
Tailored to and learning from the rapidly expanding peri-urban fringes of Asian cities like Batam – the world’s fastest-growing in 2015 – this new sustainable dwelling type is designed to be flexibly configured around its residents’ often precarious resources over time.
Locally made retractable bamboo screens are used for rain screens, shading and privacy:
Its steel-reinforced concrete frame has aerated concrete block cladding at ground and composite bamboo cladding or retractable bamboo screens above.
Hydroponic cultivation of leafy greens in the companion vertical kitchen garden (or kebun susun):
It is based around the following five principles:
(1) Sandwich section: the roof can be hoisted to add levels – the foundations can support up to three floors.
(2) Domestic density: the house encourages densification at domestic and neighbourhood scales.
(3) Decentralised systems: rainwater harvesting, solar panels, septic tanks and passive cooling principles are integrated.
(4) Productive landscapes: a vertical kitchen garden and bamboo nursery are included.
(5) Seed package: the technology, resource strategies and design guidelines can be developed in different ways depending on local social, cultural and environmental conditions.

The project supplements the dynamic logics of auto-construction endemic to rapid urbanisation in peri-urban regions:

Forest Hill Garden and Pavilion, Toronto
Forest Hill Garden and Pavilion, Toronto, Ontario Building and Landscape Design, Modern Canadian Home
Forest Hill Garden & Pavilion in Toronto
4 Jun 2022
Design: Amantea Architects
Location: Toronto, ON, Canada
Photos: Doublespace Photography
Forest Hill Garden & Pavilion, Canada
Toronto’s Amantea Architects has transformed the landscape of a single-family home in the city’s Forest Hill neighbourhood, clarifying its program while maintaining its lush, layered character. The Forest Hill Garden & Pavilion project comprises a fully redesigned backyard including dining terrace, patio, sports lawn, swimming pool and pavilion—all efficiently programmed within a 560-square-metre space—as well as a new front garden and entryway.
The exterior project began with Amantea’s collaboration on an extensive renovation of the primary residence. The client wanted to preserve elements of the existing landscape—notably the mature trees along the rear garden, which add to the backyard’s leafy seclusion—while extending the material palette and language of the house’s now-modern interior.
The landscape’s focal point is a new 47-square-metre pavilion spanning nearly the entire width of the backyard and pushed as close to the rear property line as permitted. Hovering above native grade on piers to mitigate its impact on the adjacent trees, the pavilion’s linear form is configured to preserve the existing vegetation. Clad in black to contrast with the surrounding foliage while visually receding into the background, the pavilion functions like a screen, creating the illusion of limitless space beyond. The house-facing elevation is an assembly of vertical cedar battens that gradually transition from wide and shallow at the building’s ends, which house storage and mechanical, to narrower, deeper and more widely spaced at its centre. The resulting moiré-like effect is especially striking at night when the pavilion is illuminated like a lantern, with warm light filtering through its screen and full-height translucent glass walls.
These glass panels admit ample daylight, limiting the need for artificial lighting while still providing visual separation; after dark, daylight is supplemented with tunable LEDs integrated into the ceiling. The pavilion’s core, finished with a warm and natural palette of marine-grade ply with cedar veneer and oiled cedar boards, is turned over to a washroom, a change room and a shower next to an opening in the roof that frames a birch tree and a view of the sky—zones deftly partitioned yet open to the surrounding landscape and pool activity.
From the interior of the pavilion, ipe flooring connects to the oiled ipe decks that frame the swimming pool. Mirroring the pavilion’s geometry, the new rectangular pool is lined with Algonquin limestone that extends horizontally on one side to form a deck wide enough for lounge chairs; nearest the house, the same limestone acts as a bridge to the dining terrace. The pool’s remaining sides are flanked by decks of oiled ipe that sit flush with the level of the lawn. The use of continuous walking surfaces throughout the backyard unifies the pavilion with its setting—an effect enhanced by a planted roof that visually extends the lawn to the perimeter vegetation when viewed from above.
Opposite the pavilion, the new dining terrace replaces an existing balcony-like platform framed by a masonry wall and accessed by a narrow set of eight stone steps; now, an extended sequence of wide platforms elaborates the transition from ipe dining terrace to limestone patio below, dispensing with the need for a guardrail and enhancing the feeling of openness. Raised to meet the level of the main floor interior, the new enlarged terrace also includes a generous custom barbecue station set against horizontal black-stained cedar lath with a powder-coated aluminum heat guard.
From dining terrace to pool, the elevation change is managed by a berm—sandwiched between two low limestone retainers, further subdivided by black aluminum planters and densely foliated to negotiate its steep descent—inserting a middle-ground to create a sense of distance between pool and terrace. Here and elsewhere, plantings (selected in collaboration with Tina McMullen) are structured for a modern look that nonetheless retains the loose, shaggy feel of the original garden.
In the front yard, Amantea updated an existing horseshoe driveway and intersecting front walk with new heated surfaces of concrete and limestone. The entrance, too, is modernized, with a new square stoop, orthogonal limestone bench and corresponding planting box framed in blackened metal; here, as in the areas flanking the front walk, a carefully proportioned composition of shrubs and low plantings replaces turf.

One Plaza, Düsseldorf Mixed-Use Landmark

One Plaza Landmark in Düsseldorf
4 Jun 2022
Design: HPP Architects
Location: Düsseldorf, Germany
Photos: HPP Architects / MOMENI Group, Visualisation: Brick
One Plaza, Germany
Situated at the Kennedydamm, entrance to Düsseldorf’s inner city, this building, together with the L’Oréal Germany headquarters and the vertical campus Eclipse, will add another impressive element designed by HPP Architects to the urban skyline. The mixed-use building with approx. 45,000 sqm of gross floor area is to be realised for the MOMENI Group and, alongside its function as an office building, will also provide space for special uses, gastronomy and local services. With its characteristic facade, generous enclosed outside spaces, usable roof gardens and modern workplaces, One Plaza stands for identity, sustainability and flexibility.
Organised by Archivibe in collaboration with Valcucine, the installation “LE3DERS” at Milan Design Week 2022 shows the 3D models of LEED-certified buildings as an augmented reality exhibition through an Instagram filter. With its aspiration for LEED Gold certification and its conception via a 3D model as a digital twin, the ONE PLAZA is part of this group of projects by internationally renowned architecture practices.
The building composition, consisting of three wings grouped around a central inner courtyard area, will create a sculptural entity with distinctive architecture and high recognition value. The dynamic design language is applied consistently across all the dimensions of the building, including the facade.
The two-storey elevation at each corner opens up ONE PLAZA on every side. Three generous entrance points are created which connect the ground floor area with the surrounding district. At the same time the height offset at the upper levels of the facade creates a striking roof landscape that offers protection from the wind for office tenants enjoying the gardens. “The diagonal lines of the curtain facade with its vertical, cleverly folded aluminium panels underlines the dynamism and lightness of the whole building and creates an intriguing play of light and shadow”, explains Volker Weuthen, HPP’s Senior Partner responsible for the project.
The building offers users a high degree of flexibility and the opportunity to implement every possible office concept from open plan to a cellular or combi office design. The permanent workplaces are arranged close to the facade. And in addition, in the central zones there are communicative working environments for flexible use with a range of options for employees. The enclosed courtyard serves as an internal meeting place, a central green lung, which, together with the roof gardens, increases the ecological quality of the building and creates a link to the open spaces of the surrounding area.
The fluent and naturalistic design of the open spaces is in powerful contrast to the sharp-cornered and highly compacted building design. Inspired by the leitmotif of “forest home”, the greening of the outdoor spaces, courtyard, roof terraces and sloping roof areas creates an urban oasis that lends added value to the working environment of users as well as increasing the urban quality of life of the neighbourhood. The additional green areas will have a positive impact on air quality, microclimate, heat and noise pollution, as well as comfort and well-being.
Besides these measures, many other green building criteria are fulfilled, so that ONE PLAZA is aiming to obtain both LEED Gold and Wired Score Platinum certification. Sustainable mobility is supported not only by the very good links to the public transport network, but also by electric charging stations and the unusually high number of 180 bike parking spaces, which are also available for the public to use.
The existing building on the developed site was already dismantled last year. Work on the new construction will start in August 2022, completion is scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.

Banyuwangi International Airport, East Java
Shunning the standardised international style of most airports, this domestic airport embraces a context-conscious design approach.
The roof is divided in two sections to distinguish the departure and arrival halls:
Serving over 110,000 passengers daily, it caters to the hot climate through a large-scale, contemporary interpretation of vernacular passive design principles.
The two-section roof covered by grass:
Openings and overhangs are optimised for temperature control through natural ventilation and shading.
View of the open courtyard from above showing the landing track in the background:
A continuous arrangement from landscape to interior space helps airflow, with lush plantings bringing nature inside the building.
Waiting area by the waterbody:
The roof is in two sections to distinguish departure and arrival halls, both inspired by traditional Indonesian forms.
Materials were selected for their local availability, functionality and low-cost maintenance:
Its hipped shapes provide a thermal void, and its grass covering further insulation. Daylight inlets on ceilings and façades are filtered through ulin-wood shutters. Materials were selected for local availability, functionality and low-cost maintenance.
General view of the domestic airport that serves more than 110,000 passengers per day:
The waterbody provides natural ventilation.

Istanbul Painting and Sculpture Museum

Istanbul Painting and Sculpture Museum in Karaköy Harbor
4 Jun 2022
Design: EAA Emre Arolat
Location: Karaköy Harbor, Istanbul, Western Turkey (Türkiye)
Photos: Thomas Mayer, Cemal Emden, Engin Gerçek and EAA Emre Arolat
Istanbul Painting and Sculpture Museum, Turkey
In 2009 Entrepot Number 5 in the Karaköy Harbor was allocated to Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University for the purpose of transforming it into the Istanbul Painting and Sculpture Museum.
Thus was the way cleared for the public use of an area which, although located on an important site in the city center, had almost no social permeability, and for the building of an original, high-quality museum to house thousands of valuable works including important pieces of late Ottoman to modern Turkish painting.
At EAA-Emre Arolat Architecture, in the initial research phase of the design process we studied the history of the physical and sociological characteristics of the area.
Within this framework the special place that the entrepot and office blocks standing since the end of the 1950s had formed in visual memory came to the fore, over and above the area’s identity as an industrial and harbor region, which had for centuries distinguished it from other parts of the city. We emphasized the importance of preserving these buildings, whose characteristics in scale and structure were so very prominent.
In particular, the horizontal geometry of the entrepot buildings’ reinforced concrete, repeated in line with the plane, was a characteristic most worthy of note, and one of the main goals of our design became to continue it. We planned a three-dimensional grid structure into which the new museum’s galleries would be placed, in great part preserving the reinforced concrete load-bearing system while removing the walls and floors.
On the museological side we expected that as time went on displayed works would be categorized according to changing curatorial approaches, and grouped and assigned to the galleries according to the ways in which spaces were used. We aimed to make possible changing themes in line with various scenarios of this kind.
Instead of a conventional framework-glass solution for the transparent façade that would cover the work and protecting it from the elements, we undertook an original system quoting the industrial past of the structure.
The galleries, organized so that some could be connected and others isolated, were interrelated by means of new passageways and bridges. Thus came into play an environment where interfaces between galleries were formed that offered unexpected perspectives, while viewers would be able to establish unalloyed relationships with works in a sterile environment as well as relationships between the galleries and the city.
The narrow-long office structure built on the Meclis-i Mebusan Boulevard side next to the entrepot building had grave weaknesses in its load-bearing system, and also particularly original facades. We planned to rebuild it with a similar feeling for memory.
The three-dimensional empty space formed in this section allowed the entry and diffusion spaces to be enriched by atelier and public use functions. By treating the ground floor with a use strategy as permeable as possible, the relationship this structure would form with the other buildings and open spaces around it was strengthened.
It is hoped that all of these structural characteristics will help the Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University Istanbul Painting and Sculpture Museum to form a new, original and fresh center within the cultural landscape of the city.

Sutton Hoo Buildings, Woodbridge, Suffolk Tower

Sutton Hoo Buildings, Woodbridge, Suffolk
4 June 2022
Design: Nissen Richards Studio, Architects
Location: Tranmer House / Sutton Hoo, Woodbridge, Suffolk, south east England, UK
Photos by Gareth Gardner
The Sutton Hoo Buildings are one of 17 projects which received a 2022 RIBA East Award.
Sutton Hoo Buildings, Suffolk, England
Jury Report
With a visitor centre completed less than two decades ago (van Heyningen + Hayward Architects 2003), ‘what more does Sutton Hoo possibly need?’, you might ask: well, it needed a tower, and now it has one, in this extremely brave piece of commissioning by the National Trust, who detected a lack in the visitors’ ability to appreciate and comprehend this deeply significant historical landscape.
Nissan Richards Studio have proved to be exactly what the doctor ordered in terms of filling in the gaps in the ability to understanding this charged landscape. Their combination of architectural design and interpretive and conservation expertise has allowed them to develop a narrative walk from site entrance through to the burial mounds, while also refreshing the various moments encountered along the way. Their work has involved a refresh of the original visitor centre and its exhibits of elements from the burial mounds, a clearing out and recasting of Tranmer House, the original house on the property, as well as the bold tower, as the culmination of the interpretive route.
For the first time it is now possible to see the mounds from above, where their interrelationship to the wider topography becomes apparent. From this commanding vantage point among the trees one can see to Felixstowe and Woodbridge, marking the course of the River Deben: the river that brought the site to such original significance.
The tower is expertly sited in the tree line, much appreciated from the outlaying walks around the estate. Its scale and position was proven by the judicious use of an on-site cherry picker. Great care has been exercised to minimize damage in installing the structure on the site and no services have been provided to the location to ensure that its impact was as light as possible.
The tower is built using local skills in the region, using a rich palette of steel panels and steel frame, with a beautiful grain achieved through the galvanising process, overclad with a charred larch boarding rainscreen.

Ombelle Duo of Towers, Fort Lauderdale FL

Architects: ODA
Location: Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA
Renders: VERO Digital
Ombelle Duo of Towers, FL
ODA’s Second Project, the Ombelle Duo of Towers, in Fort Lauderdale Brings 1,100 New Homes to the Market
New York-based architecture and design studio, ODA, is revealing renderings of its newest residential towers in Ft. Lauderdale, Ombelle. Dependable Equities has tapped ODA to design the architecture, interiors and landscape for the 1.5 million SF mixed-use building, which will offer 1,100 rental units, and a rich package of amenities and retail. The two 43-story towers at 300 NE 3rd Avenue rise high above Ft.
Lauderdale, creating a dramatic neighbor to the adjacent Flagler Village. The tapering sculptural forms step away from each other as they rise, creating a spectacular crown of light and airy homes with views from downtown Fort Lauderdale to the ocean.
At the base of the building, on the corner of 3rd Avenue and 3rd Street, is a sweeping urban plaza that acts as a catalyst for public activity. The plaza connects to a double-height colonnade around the perimeter of the building which reinforces a visual connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. To further activate the ground floor, Ombelle has over 11,000 SF of commercial space, intended for retail and restaurants at the ground floor with open air seating.
“We are thrilled to be part of Fort Lauderdale’s transformation into a robust forward-thinking city and international destination. With the carefully thought-out masterplan that is being implemented, the city is embracing change. ODA’s design has always pushed boundaries, often blurring the line between indoor and outdoor, architecture and art, building and landscape,” said Eran Chen, Founder and Executive.
“There is nowhere better to be pushing this boundary than Flagler Village – one of the trendiest neighborhoods with a charming blend of youth, community, art and culture. From the beautifully landscaped public plaza that carves into the corner of the site, to the staggered outdoor balconies that create unique sky gardens for each apartment, Ombelle celebrates this exciting new chapter of design in the city.”
The striking facade is made up of a delicate exoskeleton with an outer shell of terraces and balconies varying in depth, length and density to create a feeling of individual identity between homes. The robust amenity package includes an impressive lobby with ample seating and lounge areas; two pools: one with lush landscaping and a nearby work lounge, and another larger infinity pool on the edge of the building; an outdoor bar area and chef’s kitchen; a garden; a gym; a game room; a library; a private dining room; a spin room; a spa; a dance studio and a yoga studio.
“We are looking to establish a high-end, condo-like experience for renters,” said Isaac Schlesinger, head of Dependable Equities. “Our 75,000-square-foot amenity deck will be a renter’s dream. We are aiming to bring a product to the market that does not exist today.”

Baie-de-Valois Nautical Centre in Québec

Design: ADHOC Architectes & Prisme Architecture

Baie-de-Valois Nautical Centre, Canada
Parks have been exceptionally busy during these last 2 years, and municipalities have received increasing demand from their citizens to invest in them. For municipalities on the Island of Montreal, new public facilities are reclaiming the shores by offering spaces adapted to the needs of the user communities. Furthermore, new technology has allowed municipalities to integrate sustainable methods into the construction of their buildings in order to fight climate change.
Reclaiming the shoreline of the Island of Montreal through public projects
Completed in the Summer of 2021, the Baie-de-Valois Nautical Centre is a collaborative project between PRISME and ADHOC Architectes. Following consultations with its citizens and shoreline users, the City of Pointe-Claire wanted to revitalize the park, which is used by a community of 4,000 citizens.
Located on the shores of Lake Saint-Louis, in Grande-Anse Park, the project replaces an old and deteriorating park chalet and will serve to enhance water sports activities offered to citizens.
The redevelopment of the site and its building promotes more accessibility to a diverse clientele of all ages. A new community hall, with a capacity of 100 people, allows the location to host events.
Inspired by the geological stratification of the site, the project is broken down into different layers that reflect the surrounding landscape. The angled roof is reminiscent of a tree canopy, and the wood cladding embodies the rhythm of tree trunks in a wooden area. The base of the building represents the geometry of a rocky shoreline. The gesture of the roof translates to the building’s interior, creating an immersive atmosphere that poetically reveals breathtaking views of Lake Saint-Louis.
A second patio, set back, allows the landscape to be appreciated in all seasons. Beneath, there is a storage area that opens the view over Lake Saint-Louis, while optimizing the space required for boat storage in winter.
The basement, which provides office and storage space along with changing rooms, is available for boaters and day camp groups, as well as for canoeists, kayakers, and anyone renting a boat.
The building, the two patios, the parking area, and the pathway leading to the docks are all universally accessible, designed for everyone to take full advantage of the new facilities.
Several sustainable principles were integrated into the design of the Grande-Anse Park Community Pavilion
The geometry of the roof, a major aspect of the project’s concept, plays a significant role in reducing energy use. The expression of the roof was conceived to optimize passive solar gains. In the summer, solar rays are blocked by the pronounced overhang of the roof on the southwest side in order to limit heat gain inside the structure. During winter, with the angle of the sun decreased, solar rays can penetrate directly into the spaces and contribute to a passive heat gain.
A large skylight allows for natural ventilation of the spaces and provides access to diffused natural light in the community hall. The use of a white roofing membrane on the entire roof reflects light and limits heat gain in the chalet.
A portion of the roof rainwater is strategically redirected onto the site in filtered areas provided by the landscape.
Ash wood, reclaimed as part of the fight against the emerald ash borer, was used for interior finishing work and for the soffits outside. In addition to contributing aesthetically to the project, the reuse of this material contributes to carbon capture and sequestration.

Gilded Age Mansion & Island in Connecticut

Location: Connecticut, USA
Connecticut Town Buys Gilded Age Mansion & Island!

Gilded Age Mansion, USA
The Town of Darien, Connecticut is officially under contract to purchase one of America’s last family-owned properties, Great Island, that includes one of the area’s last Gilded Age mansions. The property was reduced from its 2016 price of $175 million and was most recently listed at $100 million at the time the contract was signed, according to The Darien Times. There will be another Board of Selectmen meeting on June 6th to discuss the details. The purchase is subject to final approval by the Board of Selectmen, the Board of Finance, and the Representative Town meeting.
Located within the boundaries of Darien, Connecticut on an island on Long Island Sound, the 60-acre Great Island is the largest private island ever to be offered for sale on the East Coast. Built in 1902 and then purchased in the early 1900s by baking powder entrepreneur William Ziegler, the compound has remained in the Ziegler family since William bought it.
With its proximity to New York City’s financial center, Connecticut was a hotspot for grand mansions in the late 1800s and early 1900s, including the 15,000-square foot Lauder Greenway Estate in Greenwich, built in 1896 for insurance executive John Hamilton Gourlie. Lauder Greenway was the most expensive home in the United States when it sold in 2014 for $120 million.
Similar to the story for many of the Gilded Age mansion owners, Ziegler bought the estate as a summer home to escape New York City’s heat. The massive mansions, built for families such as the Rockefellers, Vanderbilts and Astors, were sometimes called “summer cottages” with owners who were often competing to claim the largest and most extravagant homes. Very few of the Gilded Age mansions are still owned by private families, most have been demolished for their land, burned down or donated to schools and non-profit institutions.
The 13,000-square-foot Great Island main house has 10 bedrooms and eight baths on over a mile of Long Island Sound waterfront. The estate has multiple additional properties, including a guest house, 19th-century farmhouse, caretakers cottage and a picturesque seaside cottage. There is a long list of amenities such as a pool and sand beach, a deep-water dock that can accommodate a 100-foot-yacht, and equestrian facilities that were designed by Rafael Gustavino – known for his work on the Biltmore Mansion, Grand Central Station and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.
Great Island equestrian features include an 18-stall granite stable, indoor and outdoor riding rings, a polo field, riding trails and many paddocks. One of the Ziegler family descendants is William Steinkraus, who was an Olympic show jumping champion and Olympic gold medal winner at Mexico City in 1968. In the 1930s, architect-to-the-super-rich, Addison Mizner, did renovations to the home.
Darian has attracted many actors, entertainers, authors, artists, designers, inventors and musicians over the years, indicating its motivational vibe for creatives and thinkers. Author Anne Morrow Lindbergh and her husband, Charles, lived quietly and privately there after the highly publicized kidnapping and murder of their first son, Charles. Buckminster Fuller, designer of the geodesic dome and the Dymaxion car lived there from the 1930s until his death in 1983.
The listing is held by Jennifer Leahy of Douglas Elliman, Greenwich, Connecticut.

Stone Cottage Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk House
Stone Cottage Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk Home, Haysom Ward Miller Architects, New English Property Photos
Stone Cottage Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk
3 June 2022
Design: Haysom Ward Miller Architects
Location: Bury St Edmunds,, Suffolk, south east England, UK
Photos by Richard Fraser
Stone Cottage in Bury St Edmunds is one of 17 projects which received a 2022 RIBA East Award.
Stone Cottage Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England
Jury Report
The jury were delighted with this architect’s family house, crafted with modest resources and a degree of self-build, but creating a characterful, poetic new lease of life for a former four-room labourer’s cottage.
A crumbly flint-walled cottage has been stabilised and retained and new elements have been sewn onto the original rooms, opening up the house to incredible views to the surrounding landscape that it formerly turned its back upon.
A complex relationship results from this mix of new and old volumes, with a shared family room now running across the back of the house at a half level up from the original cottage’s ground floor, enabling it to look over the neighbouring field. Working onto that are two ‘cabins’ and a bathroom for the family’s adult children.
On a separate staircase, the parents’ room has been tucked into the first floor and opened roof space of the original cottage, winding around an original chimneybreast and culminating in a bed platform, accessed via a ladder stair and looking back over the fields. This sets up a dynamic through the house on half levels, turning a relatively modest sequence of rooms into a playful and surprising journey through the life of the family.
From the domestic projects submitted, this was one of the top three submissions for energy performance. It addressed the RIBA 2025 benchmark both with predicted and actual energy use, while the substantial contribution from onsite photovoltaics bettered this performance. The project is also commendable for the attention given to the selection of low embodied carbon materials (from structure to finishes), including the reclamation and reuse of materials wherever possible.
The new external masonry is thus made from reclaimed surplus bricks and flint blocks, while the new additions included an insulated timber frame with triple-glazed windows and rooflights. Even the internal finishes demonstrate low embodied energy consideration, with the use of bamboo panels and vegetable oil-based plywood, reclaimed floor bricks, natural linoleum, reclaimed undyed wool carpet, self-coloured plaster, and zero-VOC paints. Overall, the project has demonstrated meaningful engagement with the agenda to deliver a low carbon habitation.

House K in Zehlendorf, Berlin
3 Jun 2022
Architects: STUDIOHANSEN
Location: Zehlendorf, Berlin, Germany
Photos by Christoph Theurer Photography
House K, Germany
The goal with House K was to create a family residence – spacious, representative but modern. with children’s room. As a meeting place for family and large circle of friends. With a spacious kitchen – the husband is a passionate cook. Both like to host many people and friends around.
On the street side, the house and garden is protected from curious glances by a wall panel of natural stone strips, without appearing repellent. The large entrance glazing behind wooden slats allows a deep view at a certain angle, if desired. The cantilevered roof acts as a welcoming gesture, drawing in the visitor.
The sloping roof, required by the preservation department, enables the creation of a central room, extending full height to the top of the roof and equipped with a skylight strip. This loft-like living room is the central link to all living areas, such as the club room, guest area, kitchen and dining room, ascending to the intimate upper floor, via a gallery, comprising of children’s room, the owners’ sleeping area with dressing room and large bathroom. The focal point of the house is a large open fireplace tower. When the 14-meter-long sliding window front at the garden side is opened, it also becomes part of the generous terrace.
What was the brief? The goal was to create a family residence – spacious, representative but modern. with children’s room. As a meeting place for family and large circle of friends. With a spacious kitchen – the husband is a passionate cook. Both like to host many people and friends around.
What were the key challenges? Historic preservation in terms of color, material and design of the house (pitched roof, for example, was a requirement here) / The premises and terrace / garden offer a secluded privacy, but can be completely toned for representative purposes, up to a view from the street into the garden
How is the project unique? A 14 m long and 3 m high sliding glass front to the garden with a loft-like living area with a huge open fireplace, which also warms the terrace when the façade is open and becomes the focal point of the entire interior and exterior.
What are the sustainability features? the loft-like living room with dining area and kitchen opens up to the peak of the roof. in summer, the electrically opening windows create a chimney effect here, allowing the cool garden air to ventilate through the rooms. the southwest orientation of the house prevents the penetration of the hot deep west sun and ensures pleasantly tempered evenings with a garden view.

Lilavati Lalbhai Library CEPT University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India
The library acts as a living case study of passive climate mitigation strategies, high on the teaching agenda at CEPT University (formerly Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology).
Its materials respect those of the campus’s existing buildings, and placing three of its six storeys underground keeps it within their height datum.
View of the reading carrels protruding into the subterranean courtyard:
Centrally located, it has separate and equal entrances on each side.
View of the brick and concrete building with its operable wood louvers at night:
Complete with an operating manual for students, its modulated, louvred façades can be manually adjusted to admit less light or more ventilation.
First-floor reading rooms overlook the campus.
The library offers different study areas:
Below-ground book stacks, carrels and study spaces benefit from plentiful natural lighting via the louvred façade and subterranean courtyard, as well as the natural cooling effect of the surrounding earth.
Reading rooms straddle at many levels:

The initiative intends to introduce urban informality into the national housing and territory policy as a form of urbanisation: photo : Nuno Flores
Outros Bairros Rehabilitation Programme in Mindelo, Cape Verde
Growing out of a design initiative at the local Institute of Art, Technology and Culture, this rehabilitation of the Alto de Bomba district of the port city of Mindelo is rooted in the day-to-day life of the population.
Overview of the different intervention areas:
It works through construction, listening and collaboration – defining policy alternatives that recognise informality as a valid method of urbanisation.
he design team was daily immersed in the everyday life of the neighbourhood’s residents: photo : Aga Khan Trust for Culture / Amir Anoushfar (photographer)
The urban rehabilitation has increased the proximity and allowed residents to execute works in their own neighbourhoods: photo : Aga Khan Trust for Culture / Amir Anoushfar (photographer)
Its projects form public space; upgrade drainage, electricity, water and sanitation systems; and include three specific urban-rehabilitation schemes.
The project is participative. It engages local contractors and allowed the training of local inhabitants who took an active part in the construction: photo : Aga Khan Trust for Culture / Amir Anoushfar (photographer)
Using local materials (chiefly stone, commonly found in the surrounding quarries) enabled capacity building and training in construction, which allowed residents to execute works in their own neighbourhoods and enhanced their sense of belonging.
Over two years of activity, it provided work experience for 25 architects and around 60 residents – and directly affected the public space of 171 households and 1,500 residents.
The spaces created are essentially public spaces of diverse and collective use: photo : Aga Khan Trust for Culture / Amir Anoushfar (photographer)

Parkside Residence in South Australia
3 Jun 2022
Architecture: Ashley Halliday Architects
Location: Adelaide, South Australia
Photos: Anthony Basheer
Parkside Residence, Australia
The Parkside Residence takes it’s cues from the adjacent 1880’s Villas – form, scale, set-backs, roof profiles – a simple, contemporary palette of complimentary materials and finishes was introduced. House and garden were orchestrated to reflect the owner’s generosity of spirit, modern taste, dynamic family lifestyle and desire to engage with their suburban community.
The two gabled pavilions sit perpendicular to one another, pulled apart and inflected to create interstitial spaces between that provide veiled views in and out whilst creating pockets for the surrounding landscape to infiltrate and break down the mass of the house. The main living pavilion embraces the gabled roof form with a portal steel frame allowing the roof form to continue internally.
Tasmanian oak ceiling linings add warmth and scale whilst the textured oak battens give a rhythm to the spaces, enhancing the sense of perspective that is directed to the garden to the south.
What was the brief? To create a comfortable and contemporary new single-level family home that nurtures and connects.
What were the key challenges? A key challenge was how to nestle a contemporary new home into a conservative heritage street.
What were the solutions? Our strategy was to reference the surrounding stone villas by introducing a sympathetically scaled, and proportioned gabled pavilion facing the street. Stripped back to its core elements, the gable respectfully addresses the surrounding context in form, roof profiles, datum heights and setbacks. The street facing pavilion has large operable windows and screens encouraging interaction with the garden and streetscape beyond, reflecting the clients desire to interact with their neighbourhood. This is reinforced with a front fence that uses slim steel frames to provide a subtle distinction between the public and private realms, whilst encouraging that sense of community.
How is the project unique? Parkside Residence stands out as a brave contemporary-yet-considerate addition to a conservative heritage suburb.

Villa Hovaas in Gothenburg
2 Jun 2022
Architecture: Bornstein Lyckefors Architects
Location: Gothenburg, Sweden
Photos: Erik Lefvander
Villa Hovaas, Sweden
The defining conditions of Villa Hovaas is an extraordinary view and a distinct idea of the organization of daily life.
The response is a two-story house where two contrasting plan layouts and an expressive play of volumes, openings and slatted facade screens creates a special relationship to the surrounding world.
Located in sloping terrain facing the sea and the sunset in Hovås, an affluent seaside suburb to the south of Gothenburg, the elongated volume is oriented in an east-western direction with a fully glazed side towards the sea to the west and a closed side towards the street to the east.
The bottom floor has a rational layout of bedrooms and utilities along a corridor ending in a voluminous living room spanning over two floors. Outside the glass façade, a terrace is bordered by a swimming pool. The communal space of the living room is continued onto the upper floor by the kitchen, where the view opens towards the sea with the pool in the foreground to create an impression of endless ocean. The rooms of the upper floor continues in an elaborate composition, creating a gradient of privacy ending in a sauna and an elevated terrace.
The sculpted volume and precise placement of openings creates a variety and richness in the relationship to daylight and the surrounding nature which is compounded by the filtering effect of the black wooden slats draping the façade.
Villa Hovås is envisaged to create the experience of ‘living in the view’ while letting its inhabitants keep control of privacy in their daily life.

Urban River Spaces in Jhenaidah in Bangladesh
The community-driven project provides public spaces in the riverine city with 250,000 residents; over time, access to and use of the river and banks had become impeded.
To date, the project comprises two ghats – steps leading down to platforms at the river, with adjacent walkways – and the opening of obstructed pedestrian pathways leading to them.
The ghat was built with brick and concrete by local masons. It was designed with respect for the local topography:
Locally available materials such as brick and concrete were used in the simple, contextual designs, all built by local builders and masons; the site-specific projects retain all existing trees and vegetation.
The architects surveyed and documented all the trees in the city in order to propose ecologically significant vegetation and enhance the area’s biodiversity. All the existing trees on-site were preserved:
Future phases focus on public use of the river area with walkways, gardens, cultural facilities and environmental efforts to increase biodiversity in the river.
The ghat has become a popular place for the local people to exercise, enjoy an evening stroll, meet with friends or simply sit by the river:

Community Spaces in Rohingya Refugee Response

Community Spaces in Rohingya Refugee Response in Bangladesh
Rather than separate projects, the six sustainably built structures in the world’s largest refugee camps, housing Rohingya fleeing Myanmar’s genocidal violence, are a collection of practice exercise: Each created scope for the next according to need. Much of the design occurred collaboratively in the field.
Aerial view of the Safe Space for Women and Girls in Camp 25. The activity areas and rooms are organised around an open courtyard, connecting them into one larger space:
A women-friendly space, very low to withstand cyclones, features a complex roof truss built by Rohingya bamboo workers without drawings or models.
Shantikhana Women Friendly Space in Camp 4ext: Eight main rooms of different shapes are arranged in a horse-shoe pattern around a central courtyard. A large roof made of bamboo and palm leaves covers all the rooms and interstitial areas, creating semioutdoor informal spaces:
A safe space offering practical support to women and girls employed local materials and an exterior scheme that avoids the disturbance caused to visiting elephants by the blues and pinks of standard camp structures.
The display centre in camp 11 provides Rohingya women with a facilty to create, showcase and sell handmade products to visitors. The open courtyard connects the production workshop and the dispay centre:
A facility for women to create and showcase their handmade products is built of bamboo and thatch. One community support centre uses colourful mattresses as roof insulation; another mixes natural materials with industrial ones; another is built around existing betel nut trees, resisting the tendency to deforestation.
The scarcity of land in the densely populated Camp 03 led the architects to expand vertically. The two-storied community centre hosts various training programmes, awareness sessions, legal and psycho-social counseling and activities to strengthen and protect the community:
The open courtyard of the Safe Space for Women and Girls in Camp 25 connects all the surrounding rooms. The shelter provides women of all age with sanitary facilities as well as a place for them to create and share:
The Safe Space for Rohingya Women and Girls was designed with basic materials. The woven bamboo, straw thatching and tarpaulin used for construction could easily be sourced and would be less dangerous in the event of a cyclone, a frequent phenomenon in the region:
The Bhalukia Community Centre serves the Bangladeshi host communities who were directly or indirectly affected by the Rohingya influx. The centre stands in an areca nut grove where all trees were preserved.
The Hindupara Integrated Community Centre was designed with a steel structure, in order to propose an alternative to bamboo. Although the latter can be sourced locally, its harvesting and treatment requires time and proper planning, a luxury in the field of emergency building.
