Hallway House / NL Architects. Hallway House, a radical residential project designed by NL Architects, has been conceived within the framework of a ‘match making’ program set up by the Dutch Architecture institute (NAi), together with Housing Corporation VANKE.
As a Sino-Dutch collaboration in social housing, NL Architects has created a new concept for high-quality affordable housing on a site in Huilongguan, Beijing. More images and architects’ description after the break. The current generation of college graduates in China faces numerous difficulties; it is hard to find good jobs and hard to find affordable housing. The term Ants Tribe, coined by Lian Si, professor at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing, was meant to describe a group of smart but individually insignificant young people who draw strength by gathering together in large communities. The requested residential units are very small. Almost 1000 units have to be divided over the 10 buildings.
MVRDV. JDS Architects. Punggol Macro Development. Vallarta Towers. Cheiljedang R&D Center II. JDS Architects. New Taipei City Museum of Art Proposal / PA Studio. PA (Process-based Architecture) Studio shared with us their proposal for New Taipei City Museum of Art, which won an honorable mention.
Their design includes a huge cube on an urban plaza. The interior space of this suspended cube is integrated and has not been divided to specified floors as the usual buildings. It consists of several moving galleries where the exterior walls are also good places for displaying the art works. More images and architects’ description after the break. Some of these galleries move horizontally to left and right and others move vertically up and down. Moving galleries create a dynamic space inside and outside the museum that changes throughout time and its organization depends on the galleries’ motions. Oasia Downtown / WOHA. Oasia Downtown, designed by WOHA, sets out to create an alternative imagery for commercial high-rise developments.
It combines innovative ways to intensify land use with a tropical approach that showcases a perforated, permeable, furry, verdant tower of green in the heart of Singapore’s Central Business District (CBD).

Roberto Riofrío Navarro, Arq. Ecological Skyscraper in Paris with Green Terraces in Each Floor. French architect Jaubert Francois proposes a new skyscraper for Paris that consists of two towers joined by a vertical park that starts at the ground plane and finishes at a soccer pitch on the rooftop.
The “Hyper-Tower” is a mixed-use development with residential and sports facilities on the top levels and commercial and leisure areas in the first floors. The structure is a reinterpretation of the Arche de La Defense but instead of creating an un-programmed void, Jaubert Francois creates a lush garden for the city. The interior spaces spill into the green void through terraces in each level.

El sistema busca responder a las necesidades personales de los residentes y permitir la clase de agrupación densa de viviendas que los centros urbanos requieren. Vivienda Colectiva: Formosa 1140 - LOHA. Centro abierto de actividades ciudadanas / Paredes Pino. El Cubo / Orange Architects. “The Cloud”, el polémico proyecto residencial de MVRDV. La firma holandesa MVRDV provocó una serie de reacciones con el diseño de estas torres residenciales que se unen entre sí por medio de una masa de pixeles que simulan una gran nube habitable, ubicadas en Seoul, Korea.
Lo que el equipo de diseño nunca se esperó fue la similitud que muchas personas encontraron con la polvorienta nube de escombros que provocaron las explosiones en el trágico evento del 11/9, acusando al proyecto de ser intencionalmente diseñado para evocar este suceso. Fue tal el impacto en los medios que MVRDV debió pedir disculpas públicas por el mal entendido. foto via telegraph.co.uk ¿Qué opinan ustedes con respecto a este supuesto parecido? 82 Viviendas en Carabanchel / ACM Arquitectos. © Miguel de Guzmán Arquitectos: ACM Arquitectos ( Atxu Amann, Andrés Cánovas, Nicolás Maruri) Ubicación: Avenida de la Peseta.
