WHA Welingergasse

House in Welingergasse tries to unite the qualities of a closed perimeter block development with the advantages of small scale of a family home and the contemplative "life in the suburbs". A clear structuring of the structural body elements, which are differentiated according to the interior and exterior of the house, allowing towards both the almost intimate atmosphere of this small courtyard, as well as concise and confident appearance to the street, as would the house for the passers-by "in shell" throw.     While the bright plaster facade to the patio ...

Green House in Austin, TX, USA

House in Austin,TX meets the requirements of the American green architectural standards. It took over a year to design, and only eight months to build. The project came about through simulation of situations in which all the household members were involved. Instead of a one-sided indoor-outdoor contrast, here we project a host of situations with different atmospheric and light conditions and spatial experiences, depending on the length of stay in a particular space. Some of the spaces are private, some are shared with the rest of the family and guests. The ...

The Sign of the Future

The sign of the future, "Sarajevo Crossing" was founded in 1995 with the help of the House of Architecture and was a clear sign against war and destruction.

Shangh Eye, Expo 2010

An Architectural Guide to Modern Shanghai The project has been conceived as an extension of the visual communication network for the "Expo 2010 World Exhibition in Shanghai."

The project's main idea is to enable the viewer to experience spatial and temporal processes in a new, interactive way. The information about architecture should not be ...

House “D&V” in Austin

Ars Electronica Center

Architektur und Computerkultur sind zwei Bereiche mit verschiedenen Geschwindigkeiten und Temperamenten. Das Gebäude fungiert dabei als „Browser“ sowohl für die immer interessanter werdende Stadtlandschaft von Linz, als auch für die Exponate und Aktivitäten im Inneren des Würfels. Durch die Anordnung aller Flächen innerhalb eines kompakten Würfels und des Verzichts einer Überbauung des Ufers kann einerseits der Gefahr durch Überschwemmungen vorgebeugt werden, anderseits wird so ein einprägsames Landmark für die Ars Electronica ...

Endless space with variable geometry: a 250 meter long exhibition band winds through the room. Through this open concept blurs the boundaries between the interior and exterior space. This expanded the exhibition space outside the building. The first stop of this traveling exhibition was in 2001 in Vienna. ...

Sa Pavillion

The shape of the building is a dialogue between the past and the present, symbolizing unity and stability of the community. Originally built as the Austrian pavilion for the 1984 Winter Olympic Games, Austria House became home to the Sarajevo Association of Architects after the Olympics. Following its destruction during the 1992-1995 war, Sarajevo’s architects have been trying to rebuild Austria House as their home base . A path through the“House of Architecture”, emulating the pedestrian flow through the park that separates the exhibition space from the ...

Met

Met, the centar of advanced technology, is both – an ambitious scientific and educational project and a new architectural symbol of sarajevo. Einstein said once: “imagination is needed more than knowledge.” The architectural and environmental atmosphere certainly plays a decisive role. Therefore, it is architecture’s task to be creative, inspiring and extraordinary. Construction and the choice of materials – an “intelligent house” the classic division of elements to walls, roofs, and floors has been abandoned here for the idea of ...

The Royal Theatre – New Playhouse on the Copenhagen Waterfront

Living with Water The city of Copenhagen is lucky enough to be able to offer its citizens life on the land and life on the sea with all their advantages and qualities. The inhabitants enjoy the right of choice as to which environment they prefer to live in. The location designated for the construction of a new Royal Theater is one of the last opportunities for the city to get a prominent landmark. The new city landmark, a waterfront theater, adds a unique waterfront plaza to the city, which would be at the same time an art plaza with important cultural ...

Grand Egyptian Museum

THE ARCHITECTURAL PROPOSAL Precisely the architecture of ancient Egypt provides a brilliant example of permanent cooperation of man-made and natural environments. Inspired by this idea, our vision of the Grand Egyptian Museum in the 21st century is architecture as an extreme form of landscape: the landscape as a building, the building as a landscape. In an environment such as the desert, the soil, the shade, water, and plants play a decisive role. Therefore our proposal is much closer to the idea of a desert park than to that of a building. Its core consists of ...

As a vision for the 21st century, we should start to think in terms of architectural [artificial] landscapes and topographies. Our www seeks to discover new dimensions, which would grant the building and the entire landscape alike a more complex sense: Architecture as an extreme form of landscape, as an artificially built natural habitat, the landscape as a building, the building as a landscape. The space is not created exclusively by erecting a house, But also by singling out a small unit from an endless mass. The inner being of the constantly changing ...
