Iztapalapa, MexicoPAPALOTE MUSEO DEL NIÑO

Papalote is a children’s museum in Iztapalapa, serving as a new destination, oasis, for childrens social environment. Contrary to seeking the attention of children through architectural forms and bright colors the project intrigue the child to be a part of the experience by seeing other children play, showcasing a world of fun and entertainment. Instead of closing and ignoring the environment, the building assimilates and cope with the transparency and lightness of its envelope.

All operational and service functions of the museum are concentrated into a solid core, acting as the brain or the machine of the museum. With this, the entire perimeter with its double height spaces is released and dedicated to the public; allowing a complete autonomy of the operational part of the museum with the public side, and considerably reducing the cost of construction. The perimeter exhibitions are in direct contact with the outside and is contained by a completely transparent shell, breaking the typical barrier inside-outside, thus creating a clear invitation to be part of the museum experience through visual interaction.

Mariehäll, Sweden, Kod arkitekter, construction phaseTHE BRONZE

The Bronze is a housing project of 125 mainly small apartments, located in Mariehäll, an expanding area just outside of Stockholm. Three prismatic volumes cuts through the hilly site and a facade of shiny and strict metal makes the building stand out against its surroundings.

Gothenburg, SwedenMADE IN CHINA

Made in China is a Chinese dim sum restaurant in Gothenburg with the focus on enjoying chinese flavors without the formality of fine dining.

The restaurant, located in an area historically known as the home of the citys’ labour movement, is hosted in a property going through a transformation- in total 4000 sqm being restored and adapted to new business/activities (main architect of the building transformation Axel Robach). The restaurant is placed in the new part of the property; the building is from 1977 and was formerly used as a delivery gate and warehouse.

Rather then designing a “typical” outside-of-China chinese restaurant the interior emphasizes a more industrial feeling with it’s raw, clean and simple/minimal selection of materials. New walls are all cladded with colored in grey cladding (lime plaster) and existing structure is kept in its raw original state, only painted in a darker grey.

Gothenburg, Sweden SMÖRGÅSBAREN

Smörgåsbaren is as foodbar serving exclusive fusion sandwiches in a harmony with a diverse range of drinks and beers in a relaxed and professional environment. The concept of the interior is following the line of simplicity. Located in the city-center of Gothenburg, Sweden, it’s placed in an old, historical building from the 17th century. Existing conditions of the space are enhanced, original ornaments freshened up, and walls simply re-painted white. With an approximate size of 50 m2, the interior is very simple; the 10-meter food-bar with its thick top of zinc, is stretched along the whole room facing the street. The bar-overhang following the bar creates a chandelier lighting up the space. All loose furniture are made out of concrete, steel and leather, a palette with material transforming well over time.

First prize in competition arranged by Willa Nordic, 2014VILLA ROUSSEAU

Villa Rousseau is a futuristic and primitive house for the nomadic family of the future. The house explores and breaks down the traditional wall into a series of three shells. Every shell has its own characteristic material and tactile qualities. Together they make up a habitat where the fully-warmed surface is limited to a minimum and several functions are moved out to a semi-warmed zone.

Gothenburg , SwedenKAFE MAGASINET

Kafé Magasinet is hosted in a property from 1892 formerly used as auction house. The cafe is con-necting two inner yards, creating a hub/natural meeting hub in the new urban flow created by the yards.

Existing walls and structures have been kept in their original shape and appearance, columns and installation painted black and the door-and windowframes upgraded with new ones in copper (same shape, new material). The bar, backbar and place-built sitting bench with integrated storage are made by untreated plywood.

Aalst, Belgium

In Crematorium Aalst, the goal was to design a building able to fold around the landscape that with its calm appeases right to the core of itself.The serene scenario of the crematorium has been carefully transposed into the design that puts emphasis on natural light and varying textures in which neutral and intelligible spaces are organized to comfort guests. The structure is a key factor. The linear and rhythmic plan alternating patios, open courtyards and glass walls is softened in the curved ceiling of the chapel. Sustainability is the backbone of the design; the use of renewable and low carbon impact materials, state of the art heat recovery systems, zero-energy consumption is achieved.

BOTTIÉRE-CHENAIE

Bottiére Chênaie is a new district and landscape transformation in the North-East part of Nantes. The South-West building contains offices, supermarket, parking and residential units. It draws a line to the East forming a small square for rainwater collection and generating an open space.The large central block is formed by ground level shops facing Sainte-Luce street, a parking area, and above-ground units. The North-East end is characterized by a residential tower with ground floor shops adding a strong, compelling element to the landscape.

Balaguer, SpainPLANTA

Planta follow the contours of the hills that define the boundary between the higher excavation plateau and the agricultural landscape. The platform is a datum in the ever changing landscape. Inside the platform will be housed a building for the display of obsession: manufacturing, landscape, family tradition, mining, and most important a show-case for a collection curated with joy and passion.The platform houses three areas: visitor entrance and warehouse, collection hall and staff entrance; all connected by multiple circulation routes. The collection space is subdivided in three blocks with specific themes. Here black and grey rooms are excavated to create “curiosity rooms” and are in a tight dialogue with cut alleys that point the main walls of the blocks allowing for spontaneous paths.The thickness of the walls transforms a simple wall into a room and the visit into a physical experience.
