WWW.ARCHDAILY.COMRosedale House / Scale ArchitectureRosedale House / Scale ArchitectureSave this picture! Tim ClarkHousesRosedale, AustraliaArchitects: Scale ArchitectureYearCompletion year of this architecture project Year: 2024 PhotographsPhotographs:Tim ClarkMore SpecsLess SpecsSave this picture!Text description provided by the architects. On Yuin country, Rosedale is a small coastal town on the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia. During the Black Summer bushfires of 2019-2020, the seaside community was completely razed, and the original Polish-style summer house, originally commissioned by our clients' father, was lost to fire. The devastation to the built environment was clearly seen to the world, yet the hidden impacts to the social fabric remain a critical issue. Getting people back into their homes plays a vital role in repairing communities.Save this picture!The house, clad entirely in red corrugated iron, with its hip-roof profile is an unashamed reference to the modest tin shacks that once lined our coastal towns. The monochromatic response might appear to sit in contrast against its bushy coastal suburban context, but is so fitting in its context, that it appears to hide in plain sight.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The compact 87m2 pavilion sits on an elevated galvanised steel structure, with a deck sitting amongst the majestic coastal spotted gums. The communal area runs through the centre of the plan while transverse to this is the circulation to the private spaces, which double as utility areas. A covered deck completes the simple rectangular plan, offering refuge from the searing Australian sun.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The Rosedale house is a small yet significant contribution to the rebuilding effort in the wake of the Black Summer bushfires. Importantly, it provides insight into how architecture can respond to the weight of the human caused climate change disaster project that is unfolding in front of us.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessAbout this officeScale ArchitectureOfficePublished on April 03, 2025Cite: "Rosedale House / Scale Architecture " 03 Apr 2025.

WWW.ARCHDAILY.COMBIG Unveils Timber-Structured Design for the New Hungarian Natural History Museum in DebrecenBIG Unveils Timber-Structured Design for the New Hungarian Natural History Museum in DebrecenSave this picture!New Hungarian Natural History Museum in Debrecen . Image BIGBIG, Bjarke Ingels Group, has been selected to design the new Hungarian Natural History Museum in Debrecen. Located on a former sports ground at the northern edge of the city's Great Forest, Nagyerd, the 23,000 m museum is being developed in collaboration with Vikr s Lukcs pts Stdi, Museum Studio, and TYPSA. The new institution will replace the existing museum in Budapest, supporting the government's vision to establish Debrecen as a regional hub for education and culture by 2030. Commissioned by the Museum and the Ministry of Culture and Innovation, the new building will house permanent and temporary exhibition halls, educational and research facilities, public amenities, and back-of-house spaces.Save this picture!The proposed design features three overlapping ribbons that rise from the forest floor, shaping a public and scientific destination. With a mass timber structure and charred timber faade, BIG's museum is partially sunken into the ground, blending into its park surroundings, while its sloping roofscape invites public access and offers expansive city views. The design integrates open plazas, winding forest paths, and framed views through and over the building. Accessible from all sides, the arrival experience is marked by a southern plaza, serving as a meeting point for community life and museum activities.Save this picture! Our design is conceived as an intersection of paths and lineages. Intersecting ribbons of landscape overlap to produce a series of niches and habitats, halls and galleries, blending the inside and the outside, the intimate and the mastodontic in seamless continuity. The result is a manmade hill in a forest clearing; geometrically clear yet softly organic - an appropriate home for the wonders of the natural world. - Bjarke Ingels, Founder and Creative Director, BIG Related Article BIG Unveils Design for Kosovos First Opera House with Undulating Photovoltaic Roof The building will feature five exhibition wings dedicated to permanent galleries and one for temporary exhibitions and public programs, arranged in a radial layout. A reception hall serves as the central navigation point, while a library and restaurant above offer views into the forest canopy. Below, a learning hub will host workshops, play spaces, and research labs. The roof is to be planted with native species, explicitly designed to provide habitats for local flora and fauna, and visually extending the park over the museum. Vegetation will also be integrated into the building's interior, accompanying rest and gathering areas for visitors throughout the year.Save this picture!Save this picture! We envisioned the Hungarian Natural History Museum as an integrated part of its environment, both shaped by and shaping the landscape around it. Constructed from mass timber, the building features a faade of locally sourced charred timber panels that emerge from the ground, blurring the lines between architecture and wilderness. The museum draws on the thermal mass of the ground and integrates on-site energy systems, including geothermal loops and photovoltaic panels, to ensure a stable indoor climate year-round. Rather than simply preserving the site, the building restores and enhances it - regenerating biodiversity while quietly adapting to its surroundings. - Hanna Johansson, Partner, BIG Save this picture!Save this picture!Other recent BIG projects include the recently completed Jinji Lake Pavilion in China, a 1,200 m public and hospitality space; the design for Kosovo's first Opera House, featuring an undulating photovoltaic roof; and an 8,500 m palliative care center envisioned as a village surrounded by nature in Denmark. Bjarke Ingels will also participate in the Salone del Mobile talks on April 10, discussing how materiality, technology, and human interaction can redefine urban planning.Image gallerySee allShow lessAbout this authorCite: Antonia Pieiro.
