Library at the University of Mons in Belgium with acoustic gypsum ceilings 🤩 Integrating modern acoustic technologies with respect to heritage; #Acoustics and #aesthetics had to work in tandem to offer students and visitors all the serenity that befits this type of building 👏 The architects faced the challenge of integrating modern technologies and materials while preserving and respecting the heritage of 17th-century architecture. The university's requirements in terms of temperature and humidity had to be met as well, together with an accessible ceiling, because of the need to regularly lay new cables and modify the networks to always remain at the cutting edge of technology 👀 The solution: Suspended acoustic gypsum ceilings with different perforation designs from Knauf Danoline 🤩🤝 Read the full article about how to blend aesthetics and functionality in acoustic architecture 👇 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ddtBizJU #acousticdesign

Tollway art and architecture play a significant role in enhancing the aesthetics of infrastructure design. Tollways are not just functional but can also be visually appealing and culturally significant. Art in tollways can include sculptures, murals, mosaics, or other artistic elements integrated into the tollway's design. These artistic features can reflect the local culture, history, or natural surroundings, adding a unique touch to the infrastructure. Architecture in tollways involves the design of toll plazas, bridges, tunnels, and other structures along the road. Architects can blend functionality with aesthetics, creating structures that are not only efficient but also visually striking. The use of innovative materials, shapes, and lighting can transform tollway structures into landmarks. By incorporating art and architecture into tollway design, infrastructure projects can become more than just roads; they can become cultural landmarks that enrich the travel experience and contribute to the beauty of the surrounding environment. #ArtisticInfrastructure #ArchitecturalDesign #TollwayAesthetics

𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 | project repost joá chapel rio de janeiro, brazil architectural firm: bernardes arquitetura the chapel, positioned along the existing access pathway, relies on a single column opposite the entrance that rises from the ground and evolves into a cross at floor level. a primary steel structure that supports a series of parallel timber porticoes, orchestrating a shift in the internal spatial dynamics from horizontal to vertical. central to the design is the steel cross, elegantly framed by wood and set against the backdrop of the sea with transparent glass enveloping the chapel, serving as a protective skin for the sides while reflecting the lush tropical forest surrounding it. appearing almost weightless, the structure and its elements embody a pursuit of simplicity, capturing and playing with the nuances of light. #joachapel #riodejaneiro #brazil #lights #lightinstallation #architecture #oflight #thepoweroflight #oflightmag #lebanon #egypt

P U E R T O D E A L I C A N T E Concept proposal for a new congress centre for the city of Alicante consisting of: 15115 m2 - congress centre (auditorium, exhibition, restaurant, parking, circulation and all services) 3925 m2- office building The aim of the proposed development and its architectural features is to promote the rehabilitation of the port area, with the objective of converting previously maritime orientated industrial structures into community driven spaces igniting the connection of Alicante to its inhabitants and guests whilst simultaneously incorporating current architectural advances to ensure long term sustainability. Our proposed concept is a contemporary interpretation of a deconstructed stone fortress that sits as purposefully placed fragmented stone panels in the constructs of the piers. Our primary focus throughout the planning process was to maximize the flow, participation, connection, and community of human interaction with the development. The structures were all placed to enhance and promote a fluid and dynamic pedestrian stream throughout the new buildings as well as the link with the existing structures of the digital district. #architecture #architect #alicante #international #contemporary #contemporaryarchitecture #rendering #concept #design #congress #auditorium #bespokearchitecture #internationalarchitecture #waterfeature #pier #marina #concrete #stone #nature #building #buildingdesign #ocean

1702 MAKING SENSE OF ART OF ARCHITECTURE Part -I -Gautam Shah https://lnkd.in/dUv8JVkN Art form began to introduce architecture, first in wall art of Roman buildings. The intention was to create some make-believe places for humans, but found that architecture in wall art could alter the physicality of the space, such as the shape and size. This was not achievable through use of the motifs, patterns, humans and animals. To enhance the scaling effect, first, the edges of the form, colour contrasts and later, shadows were introduced. The sense of front and rare, exterior and interior, being inside and outside, were some issues solved with views drawn with inclination of planes.

Light and Reflections: Urban Art - Via Vika Oslo The photograph captures the mesmerizing facade of the VIA, a commercial building located in the heart of Oslo, Norway. This building is notable for its distinctive copper-colored panels that catch the light and the reflections from the surroundings, creating a dynamic interplay of colors and patterns. The design uses reflections to enhance the aesthetic appeal, making the structure not just a place of business, but a piece of urban art. Its reflective windows act as mirrors to the bustling city life, capturing fleeting moments of the day. Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects.
