14-Bis House by UFFIZI arquitetura
Casa 14-Bis is rich in meaning and carries a field of images that is pure poetry. The project begins with a gentle touch on the land, creating a sense of security and an invitation to dwell. Its relationship with the landscape shapes sensations and daily life. Large openings welcome light, air, and time, dissolving boundaries between inside and outside. Structure, form, and material arise from the intention to unite
Residential Building Berlin by bfl | Architekten und Berater
Housing in Berlin is in limited supply - which makes it all the more important to make sensible use of existing buildings. A single-story residential building from the 1950s on the outskirts of Berlin served as the starting point for this project: The building was modernized as part of an energy-efficient renovation, and expanded by one story. The result is the creation of two spacious duplex apartments. A clean
LIYA by Gonzalez Malama Architects
The Liya residence is conceived as a composition of distinct geometric volumes, each with its own identity, materiality, and orientation, yet harmoniously connected. Rather than pursuing uniformity, the design embraces diversity, creating relationships of proximity, balance, and coexistence. Inspired by the structure of a family, the house consists of autonomous units that form a unified whole. Natural materials such as local stone, wood, and earth-toned finishes enhance its integration
Erlebnis-Hus St. Peter-Ording by Holzer Kobler Architekturen
The new Erlebnis-Hus in St. Peter-Ording completes the expanded beach promenade and serves as an inclusive meeting place for visitors of all ages. Rooted in local identity, its design is inspired by traditional pile construction. An exposed laminated timber framework contains five oversized, solid wood cubes positioned at different heights. Developed as a sustainable and innovative solution, the building enhances the site socially and touristically. Each cube has a
Veil by Arid
In the Patissia district of Athens, a 1951 corner building is reimagined through renovation and the addition of three new floors. The intervention respects the existing urban fabric while introducing a contemporary architectural identity. Inspired by Karamanlaki Street and its characteristic setbacks that form transitional “prasia” spaces between public and private life, the new volume is carefully positioned to preserve openness and visual balance. Rather than maximizing construction, the
Reconstruction and Extension of a Post-War Villa by playarchitects
The project represents an attempt at a referential intervention in post-war architecture, primarily aiming to create a clear dialogue between the historical structure and the contemporary addition. Our intention was to preserve and emphasize the authentic identity of the post-war villa through the layering of materials and forms: traditional plaster meets a corten façade with frameless glazing. The pragmatic integration of new functions - the entrance, workspaces, and sanitary
MASARYKOVA REZIDENCA by Genius loci
The building is located in the northern part of Ljubljana’s inner ring, along Masarykova Street. This radial connection around the city center was created following the example of Vienna, where it represents a central urban theme. The ring in Ljubljana was designed more than 100 years ago, and it was physically completed just over a decade ago. Public buildings along the southern edge of Masarykova Street are arranged in
COMMOD See House by COMMOD HOUSE
The COMMOD See House is an L-shaped House on the shore of a lake in Burgenland. Two modules form a clear structure, positioned to open toward the lake and maximize the views. Upon entering, a slightly rotated visual axis reveals the terrace on one side and the living space extending toward the water on the other. The spacious foyer leads directly to the two bedrooms. Service spaces - bathroom,
Hotel Laurin Dorf Tirol by tara architekten
The Hotel Laurin in Dorf Tirol has been a vacation destination for many many years. A week, two weeks - sometimes even longer. Here, guests enjoy life and take it easy. They do... almost nothing. And - oh, what a well-deserved luxury that is in these days of adventure and active tourism. The warm, family-style hospitality provided by the Ilmer family has played a key role in this for
Hotel Tenz – Fam.March. by tara architekten
The project of Hotel Tenz in Montan, South Tyrol, updates a long-standing family-run hotel overlooking the Adige valley. Built in successive stages over time, the building evolved into an incongruous patchwork of additions. The work includes rebuilding the north guestroom unit, remodeling several existing rooms, and reshaping the lobby, bar, reception, and wellness areas. A new entrance with a large glass front creates a brighter and more expansive arrival
Spielplatz am Bavariaring by Lex Kerfers Landschaftsarchitekten
The large playground at Theresienwiese and the stations within the multi-row linden avenue have been redesigned in an attractive way, while preserving the valuable tree population, integrating existing surfaces and furnishings where appropriate. The concept assigns different functions to the areas: The large playground is designed as a recreational space for all generations, with a focus on play for primary school children and teenagers. The play stations along the
DAWN to DUSK by TOUCH Architect
DAWN to DUSK is designed to offer a seamless experience from morning to night, combining a café, restaurant, bar, and glass house with a spacious outdoor area. The concept is inspired by the cycle of the sun - its appearance and disappearance - expressed through architectural and interior elements. A carved segment of a circle on the brick façade symbolizes sunrise and sunset, while the incomplete circle reappears as
