Life is a construction of the self, a journey where each choice and experience lays a brick in the architecture of our being. As we travel through time, we are both the architects and the travelers, shaping who we are with every step. The roads we take, the detours we embrace, and the paths we forge all contribute to the intricate structure of our personality. It's not just the destination that defines us but the process of building ourselves, brick by brick, moment by moment. Life is the masterpiece we create, reflecting our struggles, triumphs, and the essence of who we choose to become.

Whether it's a football team or a building that houses 65,000 fans, resilience is key. A recent architect magazine article highlights the importance of building resilient communities, and the MIM is here to assist designers and builders when it comes to designing with masonry: https://ow.ly/lmH950Tjp7R #masonry #masonrystrong

Germany has a history of precast construction that predates 1900. 1. Roman Aqueducts and Bathhouses (Cologne, Xanten) - Used prefabricated stone blocks for infrastructure.    2. Hildegarde’s School (Bingen) - Employed modular stone elements in construction.   3. St. Michael's Church (Hildesheim) - Featured modular stone blocks in its Romanesque architecture.    4. Nuremberg Castle - Utilized large cut stone blocks for medieval construction. 5. Cologne Cathedral - Incorporated large, prefabricated stone elements in its Gothic architecture. These examples reflect early forms of modular construction using stone, precursors to modern precast methods. #PrecastConcrete #Construction #BusinessDevelopment #Innovation #BIM #PrecastDesign #ConstructionIndustry #Networking #Germany #GermanyConstruction #GermanyPrecast

THE MINISTRY OF AUTOMOBILE ROADS OF GEORGIA Architects: Giorgi Chakhava, Zurab Jalaghania The traditional architecture of Georgia, which derives its power from nature and does not contravene it, had always fascinated Giorgi Chakhava. He constantly made the effort to gain inspiration from nature and, while working on designs, he would take its inviolability into account as much as possible. In the case at hand, Chakhava set himself such a goal – the axis of the construction consists of three vertical towers (a seventeen-story, a thirteen-story, and a seven-story one), which are connected by two-story horizontal consoles at varying heights (on the 8th and 9th, and 11th and 12th floors). As a result, the structure occupies the least amount of area on the ground, and is towered as high as possible. #Architecture #Design #Arch #Brutalism #Georgia

𝐋𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐬 𝐈𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 - 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟐𝟎 When it comes to London’s most iconic landmarks, Tower Bridge holds a unique place in history. Completed in 1894, this architectural masterpiece is not just a crossing over the Thames but a symbol of Victorian ingenuity and ambition. Designed by architect Sir Horace Jones and engineer Sir John Wolfe Barry, Tower Bridge was a revolutionary solution to a 19th-century challenge. London’s trade required a bridge that could connect the growing city while allowing tall ships to pass. The answer? A bascule (drawbridge) and suspension bridge hybrid, with a hydraulic mechanism that could lift the central span for river traffic. What truly sets Tower Bridge apart is its Revival design, echoing the nearby Tower of London. Its twin towers, clad in Cornish granite and Portland stone, are more than just structural feats—they house the original machinery that powered the bascules, which were once driven by steam and have since been modernised. #londonsiconicbuildigs #towerbridge #architecture #londonarchitecture #bgbl

We have developed a range of bespoke cladding solutions with our project partners Errigal that use offsite/MMC principles to reduce work on site and facilitate installation for this major regeneration scheme in London. Spanwall Facades have now manufactured around 6,500sqm metal rainscreen panels for the Elephant and Castle Town Centre project for 3 towers up to 30 storeys high. The cladding package for each tower has 4 elements: - 72 full assemblies for the plant rooms, fully fabricated in the Spanwall Facades factory and craned into position (pictured).   - Cladding panels pre-assembled in Errigal's factory for the 'sky terraces'.   -  1,680 individual metal panels for the 'Crown' at the top of each tower. - 1,500+ rainscreen panels for the balconies.

Clean material transitions tell you everything about a build's quality. Those wood slats meeting stone meeting drywall - each seam has to be perfect. No room for shortcuts when textures play together like this.

🌉 Bridge Series 🌉 Bridge of the Day: Tower Bridge, London, England 🥇 Why it’s extraordinary: The Tower Bridge is one of the most recognizable bridges in the world, blending Victorian engineering with iconic Gothic Revival architecture. Spanning the River Thames, it’s not just a functional crossing but a historic symbol of London itself. ✨ Key Facts: Opened: June 30, 1894 Type: Combined bascule and suspension bridge. Length: 244 meters (801 feet). Main Span: 61 meters (200 feet). Height: Towers rise to 65 meters (213 feet). 🎊 Unique Features: Bascule Mechanism: The bridge can open to allow tall ships and boats to pass, a marvel of hydraulic engineering for its time. Glass Walkways: Added in 2014, the high-level walkways give visitors a thrilling view of the Thames and the road below. Design Legacy: The bridge’s two towers are connected by high-level walkways and supported by suspension chains, making it both functional and decorative. 🙂 Fun Facts: During World War II, the bridge was closed to prevent enemy ships from entering London. The bascules were originally powered by steam, but they were converted to an electric-hydraulic system in 1976. It took 432 construction workers eight years to complete the bridge. ❤️🔥Why it inspires: Tower Bridge is a shining example of how engineering can create structures that stand the test of time—not just functionally but culturally. With its blend of artistry and utility, it remains a symbol of innovation, history, and the enduring charm of London.
