The house for creative people

Treehouse

In it Treehouse the studio and a place for a solitude has settled down. Studio Rockefeller Partners has received the special order from the client, to think up something unprecedented. Working together, architects and the client could finish the project directly on the move.

Small house on a tree

Certainly, actually it not the house on a tree, and modern interpretation. Designers concern a real tree, nearby, with all care and respect.
In a small house the glass aperture in a floor establishes visual connection with a real tree. For furnish of all surfaces of a small house the tree, various breeds and shades is used.

Full comfort

The small house is absolutely self-sufficient; here there is a toilet, a fireplace, a refrigerator, a sofa and TV. Small walk on steps — and even it is possible to take a shower!

English architects of company Carmody Groarke have finished pavilion building in London.

Eight-metre light-emitting diode columns

The pavilion represents eight-metre columns with light-emitting diode lamps, with a steel three-metre plate on a top (!). The density of placing of columns is non-uniform, and in the centre they and at all are absent, opening the review on the sky.

Pavilion building in London

The idea of a construction was born in 2007 during carrying out of the competition organised by Fund of architecture in English capital. All design of pavilion is addition to the general design of a building to which a construction was an extension, and impracticality of construction gives to the project special utopianism.

House Apartment-modern dugout in Switzerland

dugout in Switzerland

Modern dugout

Whether it is possible to hide simultaneously the house in a slope of the Swiss Alpes, to open before inhabitants a tremendous kind on surrounding city and the nature, and to make this dwelling accessible to light?

Small house in the Swiss Alpes

The input in a building is combined with a small court yard. Rather big facade of the house, with a more potential for spacious windows is inside hidden. The corner of the review from the house is slightly under a corner.

Local authorities do not welcome modern decisions in architecture. But this design has been apprehended positively, as an example of the pragmatic unostentatious project in very sensitive district.

Modern decisions

Modern design

It is interesting, that in Switzerland the statement of the building project is carried out after on a site the wooden model of a building is erected. Then inhabitants of the given district, representatives of local community either approve the project, or reject the project, proving it that the architectural design is not entered in a district general plan.

New vision of office space for clerks

BBVA

Architects Herzog & de Meuron have developed design of the central office for Spanish bank group BBVA.

Bank on suburbs of Madrid

The building, which building is planned to finish in 2013 year, will be on suburbs of Madrid.

The building is in new area, is surrounded by office centres, the commercial real estate and residential buildings. In this cold, reserved place architects have suggested to erect an artificial garden, an oasis which would involve outside inside. The linear structure of a three-storyed structure is laid out by a carpet, following district topography. The cool and damp microclimate is inside created.

The design plan promotes dialogue: instead of spending time in lifts, employees can walk in parallel corridors and meet with each other. The big degree of a transparency creates sensation of a generality whereas rather small working compartments allow employees to keep feeling of own identity.
