Architecture: S.Deer Corporate Headquarters by Prechteck: “..At fashionshows, photoshootings or previous store designs, cubes in different size and configurations are omnipresent and have been a key object and an unofficial logo for representing S.Deer. The scheme divides the building into 2 structurally independant components interacting with each other on a certain height. 2 entities supporting each other and generating an working and lifestyle hybrid for the company..Angled sky-gardens cut into the building getting natural lighting to the lower floors of the building. On the upper floors creative areas for rebooting and relaxing circumscribe the peremiter of those gardens..” Integrated design sensibility, distinctive form..

Residential Architecture: Pathway House by Jacobs-Yaniv Architects: “..The main architectural desire, limited by site conditions and required living space, was to test the relationship between the inside space and the surrounding outdoor space. We are always intrigued by the question of how to design a continuous living environment comprising of interior and exterior in an ideal Mediterranean climate where people can spend the majority of time, day and night, with open windows and doors and with natural ventilation and daylight in closed spaces..” Named for the internal pathway, with skylights and plants, off which both public and private areas are organised, exposed beams, abundant glazing, natural light, indoor/outdoor sensibility..

Residential Architecture: Swelling LV House by LR Architects: “..The idea was to create a black box and mark the façade as well as remaining in a timber-framed logic, hence using light materials. Both a construction area reduced to an 11 meters square and the south orientation of the front façade led us to choose the construction of a cube scooped up in some places to create terraces. Inside, everything is built around a large central space which serves all other rooms. The importance of this central room is emphasized by a greater ceiling height..” Interesting interior volumes, geothermal energy..

Residential Architecture: Villa Urbana Domus Radicalis by Metrogramma: “..Villa Urbana Domus Radicalis embraces a concept that does not show identical, repetitive residential typologies, but instead offers different residences which increases the exclusivity of each unit. Designed by Milan based firm Metrogramma, the condominium is a contemporary building that is harmoniously integrated in the surrounding urban context..The relationship between the different typological proposals is conceived as a landscape, made of full and empty spaces. These active innovations have allowed Metrogramma to direct its efforts to the residential intervention model..” Roof gardens, balconies, terraces, diverse variety of apartment configurations..

Residential Architecture: House in Camps Bay by Luis Mira Architects: “..a space that could be used as a controlled studio with the feeling of being open, as well as to be able to morph into private and individual spaces when the house is full of visitors..The design intent is applied by framing views towards the sea (rooms) and opening up spaces (terraces) to look up at the mountains..The concept rests on creating a subtle journey through the open spaces and through the interior that constantly glimpses at the landscape and merges within the Architecture that never reveal the entire building in one instant..” Abundant light, air and views, extensive glazing, indoor/outdoor sensibility, terraces, courtyards..
