Sluishuis rises like a gigantic ship's bow from the IJmeer, east of the centre of Amsterdam. On board this architectural masterpiece? An abundance of #Geberit products. ⚓🏢 https://lnkd.in/dbikpKag

With a design for the extension and renovation of the Badisches STAATSTHEATER Karlsruhe, CROSS Architecture created a building that brings #culture into the public space. #Culturalbuildings were built over 50 years ago as part of a new theater construction phase, most of which now need to be modernized. Dealing with existing architecture, monument protection and new requirements for stage, building and air-conditioning technology is a challenge that demands innovative concepts. The design created for the Badisches Staatstheater Karlsruhe as part of a competition deals in particular with the theme of “theater for all”. The theater is understood here as a publicly accessible, approachable place that is integrated into the cityscape.

💚 The White House turns 125 this month and marks the start of a long high-rise history in Rotterdam. With a height of 43 meters, it may be modest if you compare it to the 215 meters high Zalmhaventoren, but back in the day it was the tallest building in mainland Europe. New insights and techniques have allowed us to build taller, faster and leaner, but The White House remains a strong example of the desire to design a modern city. 🏗️ No less than 1,000 piles were used for its foundation and over 120,000 white tiles were used for the façade cladding. Curious to learn more about Rotterdam’s high-rise history? I can strongly recommend ‘City Without Fear of Heights’ by Emiel Arends and nai010 publishers. https://lnkd.in/ewkJQSjR 📷 Stadsarchief Rotterdam #rotterdam #history #architecture #urbanis #urbandevelopment #construction #realestate

The elimination of unnecessary elements, initiated in the designs for Piloña and Lausanne, reaches maturity in the Bündner #Museum. The #design here removes everything that is not structural, constructional, or related to programmatic division, combining them into a unified whole. #architonic #architecture #museumdesign #modernrchitecture #contemporaryarchitecture

For our 30 years anniversary, we look back at the 30 years that have made MVRDV what it is today. We started by taking a closer look at some key projects, now it’s time to get to know MVRDV family members! We carry on with antonio luca coco, Senior Associate and Head of Visualizations, who started at MVRDV in 2012. Your MVRDV journey in 3 words? Marvellous unexpected rollercoaster! Your favorite MVRDV project and why? The Stairs to Kriterion. I am interested in Ephemeral Architecture for its temporary and transitory nature and The Stairs to Kriterion is a great example of this kind of Architecture. It was a temporary and sustainable installation made of scaffolding in Rotterdam. The Stairs connected a contemporary icon, The Central Station to the roof of a historical monument, the Groot Handelsgebouw. The installation conveys a daring message, to think about a direct connection between two elements of the city, which for their nature are not connected: the ground and the roofs. Underlining the high potential of the unused roofs which can become a “second layer” that makes the city more livable, sustainable, and biodiverse, it give a new and unexpected perspective on the city. An interesting fact about the country you are from? I am from Sicily, an island in southern Italy, a crossroad of several cultures. Most of the influential cultures from the past left traces and took root in Sicily, through Syncretism and Re-elaboration: Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Arab, Norman, French, and Spanish cultures. A place, at first glance isolated, that is in fact quite the opposite, an exchange place of different Cultures and Ethnic groups. Sicily is really an example of Multiculturalism and Syncretism, a melting pot also in architecture! Read more on The Stairs to Kriterion: https://lnkd.in/ef6Zp8Zz

The Eiffel Tower is an iconic wrought-iron structure located in Paris, France. It stands at a height of 324 meters (1,063 feet) and was completed in 1889 as the centerpiece of the 1889 World's Fair, known as the Exposition Universelle. Designed by engineer Gustave Eiffel, it consists of three levels, with an observation deck on each level that offers panoramic views of Paris. The tower is known for its intricate lattice design, and it has become a symbol of both Paris and France. It is visited by millions of tourists from around the world every year and is one of the most recognizable landmarks globally.

A tale of two cities, woven in steel and iron. #CityScapesInContrast🌉🏙️Between the old-world charm of Paris where the Eiffel Tower stands tall between the French buildings and the modern marvels of New York where the Brooklyn Bridge spans the city skyline, these two images I’ve photographed in the same shot (one in Jul 2023 and the other in Oct 2023) may differ in location, narrative and time but capture the evolution of urban landscapes and architectural styles. #ArchitecturalHarmony From the Seine to the Hudson, both iconic landmarks are separated by oceans and rivers but connected by creativity and inspiration. #TimelessLandmarks #IconicStructures #citywonders #urbandesign #travel #architecture #urbanplanning

Last week, during my trip to #Copenhagen I visited Danish Architecture Center #DAC where I came across a case study of "breathing new life into unloved building" in Sydney. Even in a relatively new commercial real estate market such as Poland, the trend of conversion of older buildings is getting more popular as the available land for new construction is becoming scarce, the architectural shape of a building becomes obsolete/not allowing for enough floor space or there is a higher demand for a different function in the area. Currently we are witnessing some #ESG examples of transforming office buildings (mainly) for the living purpose on the Polish market and only more are about to happen, which I hope we will be able to explore in different architecture museums soon! But for now, more about this phenomenon is in our report, link in the comment 💡

Architectural styles have changed a lot over time. From basic ancient shelters to grand medieval castles and Renaissance symmetry, each era had its own look. The Baroque and Rococo times were about fancy details, while Neoclassical buildings balanced things out. Modern architecture kept things simple and practical, using new materials. Today, contemporary architecture focuses on being creative and eco-friendly. Throughout history, architects always cared about how buildings look and work, making sure they fit their time. Blending aesthetics and functionality has remained at the heart of architecture's journey. #ArchitecturalEvolution #DesignThroughAges #design #architecturaldesign #archilovers #historicarchitecture #mordenarchitecture #historylovers #archidaily #evolution #growth #architectureanddesign #architecturalinnovation #development #designerlife
