#Event | Thanks to the transformation of large #stadiums, it is now possible to combine sporting activity with alternative events. We are looking at today's temples: complex buildings, equipped with cutting-edge technology and architectural designs that make them become references in the cities and even the countries where they are located. Why? Because not only do they offer citizens a modern and multipurpose facility, capable of hosting all types of activities in a dynamic and safe way, but they also allow operators to have additional income. 💭 Should we settle for spaces that are enjoyed occasionally if they can be used 365 days a year? 📅 📣 This is one of the reflections made by our colleague Jorge Vizcaya, during his presentation at the the “US Coliseum 2023” event, which was also attended by our colleague Roberto Rodríguez. 👇  #Architecture #SportsEngineering #SenerMobility

𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘇-𝘃𝗼𝘂𝘀 | « Climate positive construction | Changing perspective on the existing building stock » | 17/05 15:30 – 17/05 17:00 | Conférence | En ligne Rendez-vous annoncé aujourd’hui dans l’agenda participatif de Topophile : Lieu : En ligne Proposé par : ETH Zürich & The Real Deal CLIMATE POSITIVE CONSTRUCTION FRIDAYS ARE A SERIES OF EVENTS TO ACCELERATE THE NECESSARY TURNAROUND IN THE CONSTRUCTION SECTOR. URGENCY IS DEMANDING ACTION TODAY. Currently facing dramatic resource consumption and a high prognosis on future global demand for construction need new strategies: Transforming and refurbishing existing buildings or using the existing building stock as a material-source. This requires new processes and might lead to a new appreciation and new sort of real-estate products within this decade. Special guests: Two representatives of large portfolio holders will give insights into their current activities in the field of re-use and renovation constructions to enhance the process from concept to realization as a new standard: Drazenka Dragila Salis (Head of Development and Construction at Swiss Prime Site) Philipp Morger (Head of Sustainability at City of Zurich Immobilien) Other guest: One practitioner facilitates the implementation of new processes and concepts: Renaud Haerlingen (Independent Architecture & Planning Professional, previously at Rotor, Brussels) Format: All guests receive a set of topics/questions to prepare their contribution to this event. #topophile #topophilia #ecologie #habiter #vernacular #geniusloci #architecture #ecoconstruction

Happy to share that, together with Sara Blekic, Hana Dašić, Jana Horvat and Ria Tursan, we won the 2nd prize for Europan Europe in my hometown Makarska with our project titled A Roof without a House - A Study of Slowness. 🙌 🙌 🙌 "In the cacophony of the contemporary, hyper-connected world, we frequently find ourselves longing for events, moments and experiences during which the passing of time does not seem so mercilessly fast. We are continuously accelerating, and yet dreaming of slowness. In an aim of achieving precisely that feeling, the three project sites are gently connected to their surrounding context to form a sequence of open public spaces with three very distinct atmospheres – new focal points of the city center. Their built footprint on the ground floor is kept as small as possible, as a reaction to the overbuilt jungle of Makarska. The newly formed urban voids are covered by man-made or natural roofs providing shelter from the elements, and inhabited by diverse ecologies, human and non-human alike." 🌳🐟🐚🐙🌼 #europan #europan17 #e17 #livingcities2 #architecture #urbanplanning #urbandesign #landscapearchitecture #architecturalcompetition #urbancompetition #makarska #croatia #slowness

  IUMO provides an imaginative approach to transportation that allows for a fresh perspective to the city's evolution, both in architecture and public spaces. We envisage a setting where the constraints of traditional transportation no longer define our landscape. PLP Labs explored IUMO (Integrated Urban Mobility) as an innovative transportation concept to support our existing architectural design concepts. “Mobility takes a three-dimensional turn, transforming the fabric of urban life.” Lars Hesselgren The on-demand service, controlled by an app, takes travellers directly to their destination station without stopping in between. IUMO could support existing transport systems and radically change how we move around cities.   With no more cross modal waiting, no more sardining in the underground and no more timetables, IUMO is the next best thing to teleportation.

#Europan #E17 Winner in Graz (AT) -- REPAIR & CARE. A Strategic Response to Renewal in Gösting. -- by AS: Therese Eberl (AT) – architect CO: Mitchell Gow (AU) – architect urbanist "Our proposal creates a vibrant public realm and enhanced active transport routes to negate Gösting's peri-urban mindset and car dependence. Implementation of the transport hub is made possible whilst minimising impact on green spaces and existing buildings through reimagining Wienerstraße to serve both cars and trams. Our proposal aims to transform Gösting from a stagnant suburbia to a dynamic neighbourhood that embraces the natural environment." #europan17 #livingcities2 #architecturecompetition #urbanplanning #urbanism #landscape #competition #architecturaldrawings #archilovers #axonometrics #graz #osterreich

Considering how much is spent on new facilities which entail financial burdens placed on the hosting city for years afterward, the 2024 Summer Games in Paris is taking a novel approach, and also embracing timber construction. "95% of the venues for the Paris Olympics will be preexisting structures or built using sustainable materials to be recycled after the event. The closest thing to an architectural icon is the Olympic Aquatics Center, a low-slung facility designed by Ateliers 2/3/4/ and VenhoevenCS — and built almost entirely using wood." #sustainability #sustainablearchitecture

What another fascinating year filled with various excellent projects! We got nominated for the shortlist of the last five for the Design Prize Switzerland produced a webinar series for Liiva and were selected for Open House Zurich. RAUMTAKT’s future approach continues with a strong manifesto driving our projects. Thanks to our clients, partners, craftsmen, and many more for helping to shape the world into a resilient future. 2024 is going to be even more exciting as we celebrate our 10th anniversary. With our design and strategy approach, RAUMTAKT wants to lead by example and create an ecological world of tomorrow through buildings. #fascinatingprojects #designpreisschweiz #liivawebinars #openhousezurich #raumtakt #futureapproach #buildinginspiration #ecologicaldesign #resilientfuture #10thanniversary #remodeling #raumtaktlovesyou #raumtakt #liiva #monamicontent #southpolecarbonassetmanagement #aqinvestment #aquilacapital

Want to know what’s going on at out showroom during 3daysofdesign? Here’s a small recap of yesterday ✨

#Europan #E17 Winner in Cantù (IT) -- Cantù DIGITAL eco-logics -- by Associates: Margherita Pasquali (IT) – architect, Carlotta Olivari (IT) – architect urbanist "The project is placed within a framework of meaning for which the terms Ecology and Economy find the common etymological root. By reactivating the network of abandoned areas, local heritage, and craftsman, the project proposes a widespread museum system - a true eco-sustainable district - using the existing and abandoned heritage according to new functional and social needs, with particular attention to the functional mix the diversity of users (inhabitants, city users, tourists)." #europan17 #livingcities2 #architecture #urbanplanning #urbanism #landscape #architecturecompetition #competition #architecturaldrawings #archilovers #axonometrics #cantù #italia

A great #residentialbuilding is a reflection of its surroundings and the values of its local community—wouldn’t you agree? If you do, then be sure to check out our latest work, the Lassa Living project in Stavanger, made in collaboration with Ensign. #architecturalvisualization #archviz #arkitektur #arkitektura #norwegianarchitecture #scandinavianarchitecture #nordicarchitecture
