AGi architects: mop house

AGi architects: mop house | Rendons visibles l'architecture et les architectes | Scoop.it

spain and kuwait-based practice AGi architects have completed 'mop house', a single family residence in kuwait. two loosely interlocked volumes form an open air courtyard, creating a clear separation between either half of the house. a private and
public entrance lead to the outdoor swimming pool and ground level living spaces which border a glass wall for visual connection across the courtyard.

 

inhabitants may enter through either side of the open air atrium, allowing the home to be divided into two residential units in the future
with guaranteed privacy for cohabitation within close proximity. the curved walls form the sweeping and diagonal motions of a mop,
twisting upwards to enclose the upper story which slightly overhangs the lower floor to shade the rooms from the strong sun.

Beach House Las Lomas I-05 by Vértice Arquitectos | Rendons visibles l'architecture et les architectes | Scoop.it

Lima-based studio Vértice Arquitectos has designed the Beach House Las Lomas I-05.

It has a 180° view to the Pacific Ocean to the south, and a panoramic view of the beach to the east and to the north.
“The two main goals to develop the project were to fully exploit the best possible view to the ocean from the social area, as well as from the master bedroom, and to make the most of the plot of land.

Form Follows Nature / Rudolf Finsterwalder

Form Follows Nature / Rudolf Finsterwalder | Rendons visibles l'architecture et les architectes | Scoop.it

In Form Follows Nature, edited by Rudolf Finsterwalder, you are treated to “an outline of the history of the human examination of nature and presents a perspective for further possible lessons from nature.” Wilfried Wang, for examples, gives a particularly scathing review of the Enlightenment and it contributions. From these critiques and histories a base is built to demonstrate how the forms and process of nature can be used to generate form. The book stresses that copying nature is charlatanism and misses the point. Architects must understand the underlying principles and not the end product to achieve success.

This major addition and renovation to St. John’s Rehab Hospital takes full advantage of a remarkable site by reconnecting the major public spaces within the building to the surrounding natural landscape, which is part of the Toronto ravine system. The internal clinical environment has been transformed into a fresh, inviting space which will contribute to the patients’ rehabilitation and recovery. On entering the building, one sees directly through to the treed ravine edge, the hospital’s most precious asset.

indonesian practice budi pradono architects have recently completed 'issi villa', a dwelling which interprets the traditional balinese residence with a modern twist in seminyak, bali. dividing the site into 9 areas, the 'sanga mandala' concept references
the typical pavilions wrapping around an outdoor courtyard. replacing the typical main design element, a swimming pool forms a central datum on the site, manipulating the relationship between interior and exterior program. the front entrance
contains the kitchen, strategically placing the fire element of the brahma god to ward off evil spirits before they enter the home.

The space is linear and solid, forming an abstract connection with the land itself. Each zone is designed with a simple contemporary style, however the project complements its surrounding landscape and welcomes it indoors through a grand glass facade dug into the site. The team used local resources and technical building strategies to ensure that the building remains sustainable over time.

Completed back in 1999 by the Santiago-based architecture studio, the space was selected for the 2000 Architecture Biennale in Chile.
