House is not just a simple structure for human life. It can be called an organism which gives various influences to human physiology and
psychology. Human minds or characters are greatly influenced by their residences and environments. And therefore, pleasant
residences give great influences to human mental life and the whole society.
Accordingly in 21 century, there is a trend that numerous types of residences are born which have various functions. Recently, blue
economy house which is a future residence becomes a big topic. Blue economy house is a sustainable low - energy - consuming house
which transcends simple nature conservation level but up to a regeneration level.
101 House introduces 101 works of houses which are classified into 5 themes (Country House, Urban House, Blue Economy House,
Pension, Town House & Housing) by following the recent trends of domestic and foreign houses which are variously changing according
to life cycles.

Fort Diemerdam is part of the Stelling of Amsterdam. This historical defence line was recently
put on the UNESCO world heritage list. This ignited a re - development plan for Fort Diemerdam
to make it accessible to visitors, tourists and those interested. The existing bunkers and fortress
guardian house have been restored. The original plan of slopes and strongholds is restored and a
nature conservation program has started. Emma architects has designed a new pavilion in which
and from which puur produkties revives the fortress again with events, tours and catering.

Paviljoen Puur can be exclusively reserved for corporate and private events such as product
presentations, meetings, corporate events and weddings. On Sunday and in the summer
Paviljoen Puur is a place where everyone feels at home : young and old can enjoy indoor and
outdoor atmospheric seasonal meals, tastings and a cultural program with theater and music.

Paviljoen Puur is located on the exact site of a former soldiers shelter. The footprint of this shelter
was taken as the basis for the pavilion. Around its base a wooden wall curves up to protect the site
and encompass the program. The design is inspired by the undulating forms of the slopes and the
surrounding landscape. Openings in the sloping wall give views of the gun bays, a terrace and the
direction of the island Pampus, the next fortress of defence line.

Henn Architekten Wins Competition To Design MedForCE in Munster. It comprises two interlocking, annular
complexes, each surrounding an interior courtyard accessible from a forecourt. This arrangement provides a
clear division between the research areas in the northern part and the Centre for medical Microbiology and
Hygiene in the southern part of the building. In the middle, the intersection creates the shared foyer which
also functions as a communicative hub for both parts.

yet perfectly protected from any introspection are here conceived as rooms of light

: an entire wall of glass opens the interior to beautiful sky - opened two levels

secret patios with hanging gardens, flowers and tree species. The intimacy of each

of these five emotional environments offers visitors a somewhat

comfortingexperience of pain.

Each of the secret patios welcomes the work of a contemporary artist; the

mortuary builds sites of affective sharing, spaces to live poetically thanks to the

language of art.

An outside path in height, through the mineral patio, leads to a mysterious

outdoor belvedere, otherwise unreachable, facing the garden and beyond the

profile of the Renaissance city walls. This special meditative space is designed for

individual isolation and contemplation. Suspended just opposite to the transparent

main front and facing the rising sun, the architectural body surrounds the courtyard,

floating on air, embracing the visitors.

The old circular pre - existing pit is a great place to house a sacred tree, a universal
symbol of life and rebirth in all cultural and religious beliefs.

The eyes do not stay on the containers that are stacked uniformly in the same in open storage yards of a port or
factory. However, the containers, which are positioned as a city building as moving away from its original usage,
are unfamiliar and become an objet that stimulates curiosity. It is possible to create an attractive space through
arranging the containers of a rectangular shape as though playing with the pieces of Lego using the containers. In
addition, the modularized containers may be expanded and re-assembled since they can be divided and
assembled depending on the needs. It shortens the construction period since the basic modules are produced in
advance. And it is easy to apply to the structures that are combining with other buildings or being extended, and
also assembling, dismantling and processing are simple. It is possible to express the unique features by printing by
the form of various mass due to combination and putting on a strong color. Moreover, it is possible to reduce the
generation of construction waste since the containers can be recycled. For these reasons, residential buildings and
container houses are already getting a lot of attentions in overseas.
In this article, we aim to introduce about the container building.

This project originated in our clients wish to experiment with shipping containers.

The emphasis was on sustainable strategies - first, the recycling of a one -

waycontainer for a new and permanent use. The planted roof is held off the

container top, providing shade and air - flow to reduce heat gain. The interior is

insulated with spray foam then lined with bamboo plywood, equally appropriate

for the floor as the walls. The grey water from the sink and shower is captured for

roof irrigation.

Other innovative material choices informed the design: the container floats on a

foundation of recycled telephone poles. The deck is made up of HVAC equipment

. HVAC (

pads(made of recycled soda bottles) set in a steel frame. The exterior light fixtures

) .

are blades from a tractor disc plow.

The house is defined volumetrically by five containers. Two of them, of 40 feet,

specially for private areas(bedrooms), plus three containers of 20 feet contain

20 ( )

public spaces(living room, kitchen) and service. The joint of these areas is defined

by two annexed structures, an entrance hall and a service yard, providing continuity

and volumetric space of the house.

In order to respect the square meters required, the facade was setback being

adjusted to the hallway in bedrooms area. Taking advantage of the strong structure

that offer the containers, on the living room and dining room area, was installed a

terrace to take advantage of the distant views.

The building has been designed as a continuous spatial sequence in order to

physically and visually connect various interior and exterior programs. The entire

structure is well insulated, even though the containers appear in it's raw form. The

original container doors have been perforated and serve as external shading blinds

at the sun exposed facades to minimize solar heat gain. A geothermal heat pump

delivers energy for the air conditioning and floor heating systems.

. ,

Another ambition of the project is to reduce the energy hidden in construction

materials, the so called grey energy. Therefore recycled, ecologically sustainable,

fast growing or at least recyclable materials have been used. Further, the minimal

weight of the container structure allowed to re - use the existing foundation plate.

. ,

The use of local bamboo products for indoor and outdoor flooring, as well as all the

built - in furniture additionally supports the ambition of constructing a truly

sustainable building.

The FLEX space is the heart of the house. It contains the living room, kitchen and

can be used for multiple purposes. Parts of the room are double height, creating

perfect lighting conditions. The rest of the space is one story height, defined by the

landing that creates access to the spaces on the second floor. In each end of the

FLEX space there is access to the surroundings and daylight. The boundary

between inside and outside disappears, when the doors open. This is a

fundamental part of the design; to be able to open let nature in. It is a consequence

of having varying requirements for inside temperature and definitions of what

domestic functions takes place inside and outside.

The geometry of the FLEX space is defined by the two rows of modules, and can

of possible solutions for subdivisions. Both on one plan or two plans. It can also be

Once the visitors reach the middle of the sphere, they can choose to either

conclude their journey by taking the elevator back to the ground, or continue to

through the center of a planet, and a travel from the north to the south pole.

the centroid of the building. Using criteria base programming, the building is ensured of its minimum requirement
for office width and optimum structural layout. The operations on the geometry are parametrically controlled and
the design went through vigorous rounds of modification to arrive at the final geometry. This geometry also allows
for a balcony zone for each office level.
Meta Design(Hong Kong) is invited as a facade design consultant; the design intension for the facade is taken to
be a high priority for the expression of the building. Using prefabricated aluminum panel the designers take into
consideration of various way of using density and location of holes to express a certain facade image.

The plot is located in a new politic and cultural district. The new building will

occupy the Southwest corner of the park.

The client asked for a design in accordance with the surrounding environment, for a

modern architectural concept, simple and elegant, at the same time for a design

with complete functions.

The proposed design organizes the program into two separate structures in

accordance to axial site conditions and programmatic requirements. Although two

separate buildings, they are seen as a unified body through the poetic design of the

skin.

The project finds inspiration from the rugged mountain landscapes, the natural

, , , ,

elements, and the provincial artwork - silk painting and wood carving - unique of

Anhui Province.

The museum complex aims to achieve different functions such as collection,

research, exhibition, education, communication, services, features; it focuses on

collections.

Exhibition reflects the history of art development in Anhui province and outside
through artists works of art, literature, etc.

The project developed by RTA - Office belongs to a big masterplan that includes

The beauty of Istanbul, and this particular place is due, largely, to the environment,

the landscape, the Bosporus, the Marmara Sea, the Black sea, the Golden Horn,

, , ,

the nearby mountains... its the bridge between Europe and Asia, cultures and

, ,

continents come together here, in history this landscape has starred important

moments. Indeed, few cities enjoy more favorable natural conditions.

The topography of mountains in the Asian side of Istanbul ends in the mountains of

Camlica, the gravitational center of Istanbul. It is the center of population density of

. 1 5 .

more than 15 million, and that revolves around this center.

, , ,

From the site, the view shows the city and the landscape with all those

geographical features contained in the manuals : bays, islands, beaches, rivers,

mountains. Through history, Istanbul is characterized by the respect for the

geography in which it sits.

For this reason the natural landscape has not to be swallowed by the architecture;

our proposal offers an end to the conquest of the buildings and artifacts here. That

is why we should not build any kind of building, but an object that clearly reveals

? 21

the natural attributes of the place. Our proposal is simple and in a natural way, as

? .

an element that does not belong to the city, but belongs to the landscape.
Maybe we're talking about a minaret sculpted by the wind Maybe were talking

We believe that the success of the idea goes through the way we understand The

about a twenty - first century lighthouse Or maybe not. We leave the citizen freely

site. Our proposal comes in response to this wonderful and strategic point that has

to find the object identified.

disciplines and proposed technologies according to the social, economical and

cultural reality of the place.

The main concept of the set works with the idea of recreating the city through a

building that generates an event. A center of urban attraction. And for this reason

we have chosen the strategy of designing a building with a strong character and

appearance. The commitment lies on being able to make a whole group

understood aesthetically in a unitary way, and that at the same time resolve in a

simple way the human scale into the activity of the city that is developing.

Our whole is built having in mind bioclimatic design A building whit a high level of

sun protection: on its cover and its facade, on its skin with different insulation

degrees, and on the opaque perimeter and the transparent large windows.

The strategy of inner patios provides an exceptional thermal and lighting

conditioning. On one hand it permits a natural solar control. Thanks to a structural

netting perforated with an organic formalization that is found situated in the upper
part of the patios, we can provide for the assembly of some large umbraculums

Shanghai, in collaboration with the Turkish atelier DOME Partners(Istanbul). The

aim is that the building rises in the Turkish area of Canakkale but aspires to be a

global focus through its expression and display of the culture of a civilization. A

project that will act as a generator for social activity, research and culture.

Both RTA - Office and Dome Partners agreed to design the building in such a

RTA -

way that it would become an event generator, that a centre for cultural

expression would become an international lure. A work that would launch an

area with the objective of re-evaluating and re-establishing the immense worth

that this civilization had at a global level.

The strategy consists in the design of a unique piece, a jewel, that on the one

hand will complement the ruins of Troy, and on the other be valued in its own

right. The starting point is to recapture with the utmost sensitivity the

magnificence of this civilization that in its golden era created the most beautiful

objects, full of splendor and creativity.

The Museum stands in nature as a work delicately crafted by the hands of

artisans. A piece that stands out from the land but at the same time respects

the dignity of the natural environment. Its lines are reminiscent of the geometry

of Troy; its strained curves, planes and intersections that cut suddenly, the

meetings between concave and convex. Movement is captured in the buildings

surfaces, where one detects the influence of the artist Boccioni in the

The design of the Museum of Troy at Canakkale has been carried out by the

interaction of an object in movement with the space around it, through the

atelier RTA - Office, led by Santiago Parramon with offices in Barcelona and

intuitive search for a single form that creates a continuous space.

together, as we move forward on the journey these are separated in order to

accommodate such green grass and create spaces for contemplation.

We design the building as if it were a precious object. Perhaps we remember a

Perhaps this is a great lamp. At night it transforms into a container of light. One

point that emerges light that shines in the city. A singular point, a Landmark.

greatness, an era of brilliance.

It is a multipurpose, multifunction, a place to perform a multitude of activities.

This project was one that I developed independently, from the decision on the
location itself through to planning. The specifications of the building were also
selected with total life cycle costs in mind.
While selecting a finish that would be maintenance - free to the greatest
degree possible, I made the bold decision to use an exterior insulation and
finishing system(which is coated on to the exterior wall) in order to retouch the
exterior easily at predetermined periods during the building life - cycle as a
means of keeping these rental units looking fresh and appealing.

The Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Centre for Drug Research and

in the heart of UBCs campus. The site consists of a 20,240 square metre
parcel of land an important university entry point.

The Giraffe childcare center is located in the C1 block of the Seguin Rives de
Seine district in Boulogne - Billancourt, a suburban area of Paris.
The facades of the building are made out of white corrugated iron that
provides a minimal background to the wild animal sculptures. The idea is to
animate the urban landscape by using a child's imagination. The wild animals
appropriate the space ; a giraffe appears to be peacefully eating the leaves of
the trees from the neighbouring park, a polar bear tries to clamber up the
steps, while a family of ladybirds climbs the facade in an attempt to reach the
interior patio.

the appeal of the first - floor flats. My solution was to place a green roof terrace of

This project was one that I developed independently, from the decision on the

location itself through to planning. The specifications of the building were also

selected with total life cycle costs in mind.

While selecting a finish that would be maintenance - free to the greatest degree

possible, I made the bold decision to use an exterior insulation and finishing

system(which is coated on to the exterior wall) in order to retouch the exterior

easily at predetermined periods during the building life - cycle as a means of

The facades of the building are made out of white corrugated iron that provides

a minimal background to the wild animal sculptures. The idea is to animate the

urban landscape by using a childs imagination. The wild animals appropriate

the neighbouring park, a polar bear tries to clamber up the steps, while a family

of ladybirds climbs the facade in an attempt to reach the interior patio.

Architecture turns into storytelling. The building changes its identity and

becomes a landscape in its own right, a metaphor for the urban jungle. The

animals and the trees link the building to nature and motion. The giraffe has

become a banner for the nursery since it is visible in the surrounding area from

all angles. We walk through its legs to enter the building. These playful and

dreamlike sculptures introduce a little bit of fantasy into the routine life of the
town in order to inspire our lives with a bit of poetry.

The storage is located in the center of the building. Superficially and cross - sectionally, the storage serves as
a core of architecture. Outer walls of the dual system factory are left as an exterior of outward layer. Interior
layers serve as a layer that not only causes free outer walls, but also reinforces structure, facilities, and
security to form storage area. Interior layers are gradually harder; meanwhile exterior layers are gradually
lighter. Implying memories and history of the city, the exterior layers contain another periods of time and

This project begins with restoration of place. Obscuring the boundary between

land and surrounding boundary imposes extendability that a public space may

have. The flow of space created by layer and plate that land remembers

generates flexible landscape. The public space created in such a way shape

angel square along the flow and embodies angels wing as the local symbol by

. , ,

being uplifted. In addition, various contact points along the flow restores the

identity kept by the local community and connects people to each content.

Connecting memory and space of time to life will provide the energy for life and

shelter to local residents and play an important role as a base for Joenju test
