Residential Architecture: Rado Redux by Peter Gluck and Partners: “..The Czech émigré architect, Ladislav Rado’s famous modern house built in 1956-57, provided the original context for its renovation. Exemplary of its time, the building reflects the simplicity and directness of the relationship to the outside and to the landscape, with influences from Japan..The current renovation preserves the ‘floating box’ form by restoring the second floor cantilever, wrapping the whole upper box with a new hi-tech wood cladding. An expanded palette of materials includes new double insulated glass to update the original rabbeted window frame detail and floor to ceiling glass sliders preserve the existing glass expression which opens up views to the woods from the master bedroom suite..” Lovely forest views, abundant glazing, cantilever, wood, stone..

Residential Architecture: Osler House by Marcio Kogan: “..On the ground floor, the rooms open out using rotating wooden panels, which are reminiscent of other elements frequently used in the modernist city. Throughout this area there is cross-ventilation. The small foyer in the entrance connects to the second floor with a delicate staircase..The upper floor is organized in a prism of glass and concrete and is supported by stilts. The living room is in spatial continuity with the kitchen, separated only by a table used to prepare the food. All of the equipment and furniture of the kitchen are available on this table, in order that nothing vertically interrupts the visual transparency of the volume. On the roof of the ground floor, connected to the living room, the garden terrace extends the external area..” Abundant glazing, natural light, wood lamella screens, interior courtyard..

Residential Architecture: Psicomagia House by Estudio Martin Gomez Arquitectos: “..The project has the two volumes facing each other connecting the ground floor by a terrace as a transition area, which creates a straight dialogue between each other. At the same time these two volumes differentiate each other. the service area is a closed and heavy block and the social area is more open and transparent opening itself to the most important views to the terrace and the sea..In the first floor several pergolas play with the social volume creating various outdoor situations that invite its habitats to enjoy al fresco..” Abundant glazing, views, natural light, effective materiality, concrete, stone, wood..

Architecture: Nursery in Ourense by Abalo Alonso Arquitectos: “..Wood cabins amidst trees could well lie at the core of the project design..A single floor for functional reasons, and access located at the highest spot. The entranceway set up for leaving trolleys, and wind-breaking doors bring us into the building. A multiple-use room distributing functions. North, servant spaces accessed independently; office, staff dressing room, kitchen and room for facilities..” Filtered light through abundant glazing, wood lamella screens, simple geometry..
