The Hidden House | LIJO.RENY.Architects

The Hidden House was designed by the architectural firm Lijo.Reny.Architects. The strategy was to push the building as far as possible away from the highway, on the east, and provide a thriving landscape between them as a buffer. On site, all of the functional blocks were placed, separated by pockets of landscape. This was done to protect them from the assaulting pollution from the highway.

ARTi Architect Office | ARTi Architect

In their own office ARTi Architect have created 4 zones on the floor plan which are, share-meeting room, rental room for lighting design/graphic design and trees-balconies which can be accessed through every zone. These elements shaped the indoor-nature view and also the buffer for outdoor building and wires view.

ARTi Architect

ARTi Architect is an architectural firm composed of architects, interior designers and landscape designers. We believed that building alone cannot form a good architecture without support from landscape designers. We love modern mid-century architecture and strongly agree that architecture should not be complicated for people to understand.

estudio tda®luque | TDA

Estudio tda designed by TDA redefines the office space as a need to generate shelter. Based on logic of construction that rethinks economy, resources, need and space. This way, an 7×5 excavation. An absolute connection with the landscape. A 5 centimeters concrete plane that folds generates inertia and because of an absolutely elemental reasoning, a plate becomes a structural support.

The House of Remembrance | Neri&Hu Design and Research Office

In The House of Remembrance, Neri&Hu have explored how notions of communal living and collective memory can be expressed spatially. The original site featured a lush vegetated edge that formed a natural green buffer along the perimeter, a feature that designers have retained. The new two-story house organizes all communal spaces around a central garden, which occupies the courtyard space serving as a memorial garden for the family’s matriarch.

Weekly Highlights 2022 #18

Project of the Week – Chapel and Meditation room | Studio Nicholas Burns

Archidiaries is excited to share the “Project of the Week”. Along with this, the weekly highlight contains a few of the best projects, published throughout the week. These selected projects represent the best content curated and shared by the team at ArchiDiaries.

THREE TREE HOUSE | Gallardo Llopis Arquitectos

Three Tree House designed by Gallardo Llopis Arquitectos takes the volumetric axioms of this vernacular Mediterranean architecture as a starting point to initiate its own compositional process with a contemporary architectural language: a set of white prisms on a masonry wall base. Thus, a dialogue is established between architectural abstraction and the tradition of dry-stone construction on which it is based.

Tainan Public Library | MAYU architects + Mecanoo

In Tainan Public Library designed by MAYU architects & Mecanoo, slender columns support the cantilevers in rhythmically placed quartets, giving a feeling of weaving your way through a modern bamboo forest. The striking crown of the building is surrounded by vertical aluminum slats with carved flower patterns, which are reminiscent of the decorative latticed windows in the old town.

MAYU Architects

MAYU architects, founded in 1999 as Ma-Lone Chang Architects, later as Ma-Lone Chang and Yu-lin Chen Architects, is an interdisciplinary practice based in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
The scope of MAYU architects’ works spans from large-scale civic projects to small scale ones. The studio recognizes the importance of teamwork in the creation of architecture, while maintaining the individuality and artistry of each project.

Permeable Junction Boarding House | Andyrahman Architect

In Preamble Junction Boarding House, Andyrahman Architect diminishes boundaries between Outside and Inside taking cues from Candi Borobudur Temple. So this boarding house prioritizes the communal space, to give the users a gathering space, as well as socializing and interacting with each other.

Kastelaz Hof | Peter Pichler Architecture

Kastelaz Hof is a residential project designed by Peter Pichler Architecture. The geometry of the villa evolves from local site conditions. It creates a flowing and harmonious transition with the landscape and is barely noticeable from the close village. The ribbon-like structure that emerges from the natural landscape creates an internal courtyard that offers protection from the strong wind coming from Garda Lake.
