Working with the idea of “creating a society that is based on quality not quantity, on cooperation and not competition,” CTRLZ architectures have rethought a new model for, not just a building, but rather for society.
Due to the on-going “cultural revolution” we are experiencing, the way we approach solving the problems of the world have changed, and architecture along with it. Now, the architect must not merely respond to designing spaces, but to other factors, such as society, energy, the internet, and politics, as well. “We believe that architecture is not anymore about form and/or/…function, but that it is about relations. The development of network systems shows us that the power resides in links and connections.” More about the model and more images after the break. Their new decentralized mode of living emphasizes the interconnectivity of social spaces and a transparent model of energy and production to create a collaborative base. This is Black Rock City.

One of the runners-up for the recent Animal Architecture Awards is also one of my favorites from the competition: "Farmland World" by Allison Newmeyer and Stewart Hicks of the Chicago-based Design With Company. The project is an ironic investigation of how humans relate to farm animals—more specifically, how the ongoing spatial separation between humans and the animals they rely on for food and other forms of agricultural work can make animals seem to be nothing more than utilitarian machines.

In the architects' words: The everyday life of the average American is almost completely disconnected from the land and animals that support them. Design With Co.

Nave 17 C. Algunas imágenes más acerca del Fun Palace de... Fun Palace, un proyecto no realizado. Cedric Price Cedric Price nació en 1934 y ha sido una de las figuras más influyentes en la arquitectura actual.
Muy cercano a las propuestas utópicas de Archigram y Yona Friedman, con sus propuestas en las que siempre resaltó la importancia de la flexibilidad en el diseño arquitectónico, logró posicionarse también como un teórico importante de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, que escribió poco pero predico con sus ideas. Sus proyectos representaban una adaptabilidad extrema, siempre pensando en la posibilidad de que su uso cambiase de forma impredecible. Pero sin lugar a dudas, uno de sus proyectos más importantes fue el Fun Palace (Palacio de la Diversión), diseñado en colaboración con la directora de teatro Joan Littlewood entre 1961 y 1972 y que proponía unas escenas sin precedente para interactuar con el entorno urbano, que dieron como resultado un edificio que, en cada una de sus partes, respondía adecuadamente a las necesidades de sus visitantes.

7 Brilliant Building Conversion Projects: Superb Examples of Architectural Adaptive Reuse. Adaptive Reuse: 7 Brilliant Building Conversion Projects.
7 (More) Amazing Adaptive Reuse Architecture Projects: From Ship Houses to Chapel Bookstores. Who would have thought you could make so much with simple structures from trailer parks? And that’s just the beginning. For ecological reasons, for eccentric clients and simply for fun, more and more architects and designers are figuring out clever approaches to adaptively reuse old structures in novel ways. From pigsty and water tower houses to a beautiful chapel bookstore and a gigantic shipping container museum, here are seven more ingenious reuses of otherwise wasted architecture into amazing recycled designs . A pigsty is probably the last place anyone would want to live , right? Well, this 230 year old building inspired FNP Architekten in Germany to create a unique blend of modern and aged architecture.
If ever there was a weird building with an incredibly bizarre history this is it. Currently under construction, the new High Line elevated park in New York City takes advantage of an urban relic that has sat with potential but no plans for a very long time.
