When we visited the project site with the client, we noticed some particular features that we could say became guiding elements of what the project would become. Upon arrival, we sensed a bucolic atmosphere and a sense of peace. The site, located in a gated community in the city of Campinas, faced a farm. With a wide view, we could observe the Maria Fumaa train passing by, and at that moment, the direction of the houses views was already being revealed or suggested.

CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati, in partnership with real estate group IPI, has revealed plans to transform the iconic modernist Palazzo Micca in Turin, Italy. Originally the headquarters of RAI, Italy's national broadcaster, the 19-story building will undergo a comprehensive adaptive reuse project. A significant feature of the redesign is the creation of an elevated public plaza at 26.5 meters, offering views of Turin's Baroque rooftops, the surrounding hills, and the Alps. The project also integrates sustainable design principles by converting parts of the office spaces into residential units and reusing existing materials.

Located in a historic building in the Old Town of Bilbao, this project proposes the renovation of a home in which the image of the past and the present coexist, emphasizing the choice of natural materials and attention to detail of integrated furniture.

A small plot size should never be an excuse for compromising on good architecture. The client of this residence received a 12' x 22' plot as a share after the demolition of his ancestral property. The requirements were to have two commercial units on the ground floor and one household unit on each of the other two floors. Located in one of the busiest neighborhoods in Tiruchirappalli, this residence, situated in a wall-to-wall zone, faced numerous challenges right from the design stage.

The small rum bar Campana del Rey is located in the heart of Munich's old town on the second basement floor of a small residential building. The vaulted cellar probably dates back to the 16th century. The upper floors have undergone several phases of conversion.

Casa Zen was conceived for the family of a yoga teacher who wanted to integrate her residence with a study space. The architectural program required the basic elements of a single-family home, with the only condition imposed by the owners being to preserve as many existing trees as possible and to avoid cutting them down at all costs. This challenge of preserving the trees was, in fact, the driving force behind the project, as the architectural approach and concept emerged from this premise.

Sitting high above the Okanagan valley, planted into the desolate mountain landscape sits a corten-clad house reminiscent of a landship.

Stijn and Nele bought an old farm on a 4600 m plot just outside Ghent. There were several buildings on the site: the farm itself, in poor condition and outdated; a stable and a field barn. In the south and west of the plot there are some houses, to the north and east there is no construction and one looks out over an open rural area consisting of meadows and fields. The existing farm was so outdated that it was almost impossible to convert it in a price-conscious way into a home that meets today's living and comfort requirements. That is why it was decided to play the card of reconstruction but with the necessary respect for the beautiful wide surroundings. A design and construction method was sought that could achieve a maximum result with limited resources. A compact volume with a minimum of circulation and use of materials. At first sight, the hexagonal plan seems stranger than it is: a hexagonal building volume is a lot more compact than a rectangular volume, and a lot less material is needed to construct the building.

The seed for the timber school building was sown already in the architecture competition brief. The aim was to establish a school specialized in environmental education and the building was similarly supposed to illustrate the possibilities of environmentally responsible construction.

Beijing 751 Library/ DO UNION. Do Union designed the 751 library that integrates with the industrial remains. The 751-798 Art District is the largest art district in China, and the main venue for Beijing Fashion Week and Design Week. Established in the 1950s with aid from East Germany, it originally housed a massive electronics component factory. The 751 Library is located at the end of 798 Road, the main road within the district, facing the Locomotive Plaza. The original site was a residual ash- washing pool from the factory, with a crane above for transporting coal ash. After 2010, the ash-washing pool and crane ceased operations, and the site was closed off, interrupting the continuous 300-meter-long active commercial interface of 798 Street leading to the Locomotive Plaza.

The concept for the Paricatuba House project emerged after the land was purchased, as there were already three containers stacked on the site. Thus, the project originated from the need to renovate these containers. The land is beautiful, surrounded by vegetation, and faces the Rio Negro in the village of Paricatuba, 40 minutes by car from Manaus (Amazonas). In this context, the project aimed to integrate the containers with nature, framing the beautiful view of the vegetation and the river.

The one-acre site of Saukhya Farm is nestled in the lush valley of Beze Village, on the outskirts of Nashik. Surrounded by small farms, it offers sweeping views of Beze Dam and surrounding hills. The clients' brief was to transform the site into a farmhouse and to cultivate part of it into an orchard.Work on the farmhouse began amid lockdown delays. Frequent visits to the site inspired us as we observed the valley's dramatic seasonal changesfrom vibrant green in the monsoon to muted brown later in the year. These observations became central to the design of 'The Open House,' a farmhouse that frames and integrates with its surroundings, encouraging users to slow down and engage with nature.

The act of architecture can be developed based on the concept of 'metaphor.' The image of a ship (ark) gently floating on the sea of a gray city has been used as a metaphor. By giving the form and material a sense of weight, the aim was to establish a serene and fundamental presence within the city as a sanctuary and womb-like space.

Renovation and development of the home and studio of Ada and Emil Nolde - The clear conservation approach is expressed in the focus on intimacy and spaciousness - to bring the studio and living atmosphere of Ada and Emil Nolde's lifetime back to life.

The site is located in the suburbs of Sukagawa City, Fukushima Prefecture. The 400 m2 site was spacious enough, and combined with the rich natural environment of the surrounding area, it is a spacious and pleasant place to live. The owners are a family of four, a young couple and their two small children. When we first met them, we sensed a sense of anticipation for their future life and a positive attitude toward creating their own lifestyle. Since we were building a house in a blessed site environment, we proposed a lifestyle in which the richness of the family's life would not be limited to the house, but would extend to the garden as well. We placed all the water facilities in the center of the house and created living spaces that surround the water facilities.

Aniketana is placed in a calm residential area, a north-facing plot with a frontage of 40 feet and 60 feet depth. The existing tree at the entrance is retained as it brings a touch of nature to the space while also serving as a buffer and screen, creating a sense of separation and privacy for the site.To create a sense of hierarchy and prioritize privacy, the house is divided into four main levels and stacked vertically: the entry-level, the family space, the private areas, and the master suite. We enter the ground floor through a landscaped area leading us to the formal living and home theatre. The pet's living and services are neatly tucked away in the back.
