origen: gracias a JUAN DOMINGO SANTOS . fotos: HISAO SUZUKI . JAVIER CALLEJAS

Los habitantes de la casa son una pareja joven que eligieron el lugar por las magníficas vistas sobre la ciudad y la singularidad de un terreno situado en un barranco de fuerte desnivel.

La belleza entre lo político, lo ético y lo cultural. EL RETORNO DE LA BELLEZA según Arthur C. Danto

Por el contrario, Danto llegó a la conclusión de que las obras no eran “artísticamente excelentes” porque fueran bellas sino porque “ser bello” era artísticamente “correcto”.

Pozemok sa nachádza na východnom svahu. Z južnej strany je zatienený susedným domom. Polohu navrhovaného objektu sme určili paradoxne práve v zatienenej časti záhrady z viacerých dôvodov.

BBVA headquarters . Madrid


. BBVA . dezeen

BBVA’s new headquarters is located on the northern periphery of Madrid. The site faces the highway and is surrounded by newly built offices, commercial buildings, and residential developments. It is a “site without qualities”, a site that is nowhere and everywhere at the same time, a desert-like non-place.

BOSQUE DEL CARBONÍFERO EN EL MUSEO NACIONAL DE LA ENERGÍA . PONFERRADA



origen: gracias a dosmasunoarquitectos (Ignacio Borrego . Néstor Montenegro . Lina Toro) . colaboradores: Marie Persson . Carlos Ramos

Ante el reto arquitectónico de construir un invernadero, que aloje la reproducción de un Bosque Carbonífero a partir de especies naturales importadas y artificiales recreadas, la repuesta debe ser de máxima sencillez en la toma de decisiones, sin perder la representatividad que de un edificio público destinado a Museo se espera.

Costa House . Lexington


source: SO – IL

This expansion of an important historical Kentucky home responds to the beautiful natural setting in which the house is located. Instead of a typical transparent garden room, we propose a facade that reflects and filters the surroundings to create an enveloping magical atmosphere. The kitchen counter, cooking island and floor are all poured-in-place concrete. The roof is made of fiber reinforced plastic, eliminating the need for structure.

FUNDACIÓN DE ARQUITECTURA CONTEMPORÁNEA . Córdoba

Fundar un lugar es una especie de acto primitivo siempre contemporáneo. Establecer nuevas relaciones con un determinado lugar, desencadenar energías que activen las semillas dispersas. El acto de fundación también es superposición. Densificación consecuente de un palimpsesto urbano, que debe expresar con claridad los objetivos del nuevo tiempo, permaneciendo accesibles los diferentes tiempos y lugares.

The scheme in front of you presents nOffice’s strategy for a differentiated Kunsthalle, which provides a set of distinct spatial experiences. Our design follows a trouble-free and intruiging ambition: to make space for art rather than simply providing it,
and to create a new (temporary) icon for Berlin.

The brief for the Ílhavo Cultural Centre requested the redesign of the public space in the town centre, inluding a new underground parking lot and a multifunctional facility with an auditorium, exhibition hall, technical offices and comercial spaces. All this had to work with the existing urban features. The Municipality of Ílhavo promoted the Competition ("Concurso de Ideias") from which the recently finished Centre evolved.

Shanghai is a fragmented collage of different scales and styles. The identity of the city lies in the diversity of traditional, colonial, communist, and "post-modern" architecture united only through the city’s history. The Global Financial Centre on the Bund – yet another mixed-use project among all these opposing elements – has the natural task of addressing and emphasizing all the contradicting qualities of Shanghai without compromising their benefits.
