Whilst designed by David Chipperfield Architects, Pacific Quay (docks are never called 'dock' these days) Studios was completed by Keppie Design in a slightly controversial move which some say was an example of the BBC bottling-out of their much vaunted commitment to top-notch architecture. Suffice to say though, the quality of detail is still a delight in this somewhat deceptive building... Pacific Quay is a completely modern name: the partially-filled dock that formerly occupied the site was known as Prince's Dock. It was the site of the 1988 Garden Festival: the subsequent permanent regeneration took almost twenty years to materialise. The red, or Dumfriess-shire, sandstone came from a quarry that was re-opened for this project. It's a rather nice use of material giving the building a sense of place.

The atrium of the Henning Larsen Architects / Olafur Eliasson designed Harpa Concert Hall is full of great angles. I would've liked longer to explore it but on this trip I only had one full day in Reykjavik so couldn't hang around too long. You can see more of my Iceland photos here : www.flickr.com/photos/darrellg/sets/72157650886963062 From Wikipedia : "Harpa is a concert hall and conference centre in Reykjavík, Iceland. The opening concert was held on May 4, 2011. Harpa was designed by the Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects in co-operation with Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson. The structure consists of a steel framework clad with geometric shaped glass panels of different colours. The building was originally part of a redevelopment of the Austurhöfn area dubbed World Trade Center Reykjavík, which was partially abandoned when the financial crisis took hold. The development was intended to include a 400-room hotel, luxury apartments, retail units, restaurants, a car park and the new headquarters of Icelandic bank Landsbanki. The completion of the structure was uncertain until the government decided in 2008 to fully fund the rest of the construction costs for the half-built concert hall. For several years it was the only construction project in existence in Iceland. The building was given its name on the Day of Icelandic Music on 11 December 2009, prior to which it was called The Reykjavík Concert Hall and Conference Centre (Icelandic: Tónlistar- og ráðstefnuhúsið í Reykjavík). The building is the first purpose-built concert hall in Reykjavík. It houses the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and the offices of The Icelandic Opera." My Website : Twtter : Facebook

Mount fuji architecus studio-hotel siro 마운트후지아키텍트스튜디오-호텔시로 호텔의 디자인은 도쿄의 거리를 건물로 직접 가져온다. 각 층과 도시를 직접 연결하는 계단은 나가사키와 오노마치와 같은 언덕이 많은 도시의 계단처럼 디자인이 다르다. 계단을 통해 자연환기와 부드러운 산들 바람이 각 층의 야외 복도로 이어진다. 호텔은 도쿄의 전통여관을 연상케 하여 참신하고 일본적이면서 현대적이다.

Final Thesis Project

You might have spotted it peeping over the High Line: a forest of cranes and lorries building out from Chelsea into the Hudson River. New York’s largest overhaul since the Rockefeller Center, Hudson Yards replaces a swathe of decommissioned railyard – once nicknamed Death Avenue for the locals who wandered in the path of speeding trains. Today Hudson Yards is talked about in swirls of superlatives: a $25 billion expansion of Midtown, it will offer two million square metres of space in some of the greenest towers on earth, amid 14 acres of gardens and plazas. But once the dust clears, what will that mean, exactly? We break it down.

미국 시애틀의 Allen 연구소는 총 6층 높이, 27만 평방피트 규모의 생명과학 건물로써, 지하 4층에 달하는 주차장과 함께 9천 평방피트 규모의 1층 소매점을 갖추고 있다. 디자인은 원래 중심에 거대한 빛으로 채운 아트리움을 둔 꽃 잎 모양의 연구소를 지어 - 연구원들이 서로를 볼 수도 있고 자신들이 하고 있는 것도 볼 수 있는 일종의 벌집 안에 있는 것과 같은 효과를 주려고 했다. 사무실과 열린 공간들, 그리고 상호 연계된 계단은 동료들과 직원들 간에 연계를 도모하며, 커뮤니티를 생성할 수 있게 도와 준다. 공간은 습한 연구실과 건조한 연구실, 데이터 센터, 강당 등을 포함하고 있다. The 270,000-square-foot life science building is six stories tal..
