House of Hungarian Music . Budapest

Laura Alvarez Architecture

The new Museum of Hungarian Music will be a vibrant place. It will attract people from all over the world as well as from Hungary.
When we think about a Museum of Music, we all have in mind a bit outdated museum. In there, you can only see things but not experience them: Instruments, old manuscripts, etc are the most common artefacts to be exhibited in this type of museums.

Ljubljana is a city of contrasts where the huge plain of the area occupied by the buildings contrasts with the height of the surrounding mountains. This situation leads us to propose a building where its peculiar volume makes it recognizable from all perspectives of the city.

The Sailing Centre aims to add value to the pier area through an architectural solution anchored in the sailing boat historical identity. The modulation of the new building is inspired by the play of light between the sails shape and mast. The indoor plan is the result of a deep analysis of flows, dynamics and activities that share the same building. The pier regeneration seeks to attract new visitors by providing the essential facilities for new events along the new marine promenade.

Super Atelier es una propuesta que propone recuperar tejido industrial y productivo en centros urbanos, como la ciudad de Madrid. Esta clase de actividad, en forma de fábricas y talleres, se expulsa del centro debido a diversas causas como la salubridad o el aumento de densidad. Sin embargo, los avances técnicos así como las posibilidades que ofrece internet en todos los campos de trabajo facilitan esta recuperación.

Located on a remote agricultural state in southern Mallorca, this structure was the realisation of a dream for the client. Being an urbanite young professional who decided to move back to her hometown to run the family agricultural legacy she asked for a space for grooming, contemplation and delicacy. Sited at the center of a barley field sur­rounded by autochthonous bushes and wild olive trees the tower has a panoramic view meeting the Mediterranean sea and senses at the horizon the lush island of Cabrera.

Historically, ancestral homes are the properties that has fostered the coexistence and represented the families that owned them. Regardless of their location, their grandeur, their time and their site all of them have borne the signs –names, heraldry or aesthetic tastes- of their tenants. The house was a reflection of the family character and, in certain way, it took a representative role. This house in Carmena, a small town 40 kilometers away from Toledo, is not an exception.

Kovágószolos has been identified as the part of the most ancient opened up settlement in the Pécs region so far. A 4000 years old soil-built Celtic castle proves that it has been a popular settlement among inhabitants since ancient times. Since the 1950s, as a matter of being in the neighbourhood of the socialist large-scale industry such as uranium mining, local residents –the miners- were only allowed -by the authorizations- to build small sized, hut- like buildings.

El artículo de las luciérnagas

Traducción de Esteban Nicotra . + pasolini

“La distinción entre fascismo adjetivo y fascismo sustantivo se remonta nada menos que al diario “Il Politecnico”, es decir, a la inmediata posguerra...” Así empieza un escrito de Franco Fortini sobre el fascismo (L’Europeo, 26-12-1974), escrito que, como se suele decir, yo suscribo totalmente, plenamente. Pero no puedo suscribir su tendencioso exordio. En efecto, la distinción entre “fascismos” hecha por Il Politecnico no es ni pertinente ni actual. Esta podía valer todavía hasta hace cerca de una decena de años, cuando el régimen democristiano era todavía la simple y pura continuación del régimen fascista. Pero hace una decena de años, sucedió “algo”. “Algo” que no existía y que no era previsible no sólo en la época del Politecnico, sino ni siquiera un año antes de que sucediera (o aún más, mientras sucedía, como veremos). Por lo tanto, la comparación real entre “fascismos” no puede ser hecha, “cronológicamente”, entre el fascismo fascista y el fascismo democristiano, sino entre el fascismo fascista y el radicalmente, totalmente, imprevisiblemente nuevo que ha nacido de aquel “algo” que ha sucedido hace una década.
