The E.D.G.E
This tiny prefab home is an experiment in all things efficient. The E.D.G.E., designed and built by by Bill Yudchitz and Revelations Architects/Builders Corp. in Wisconsin, stands for an Experimental Dwelling for a Greener Environment, and recently won a design award from the American Institute of Architects-Wisconsin. Several details of this design make it unique to other prefab designs. The “kinetic facade” rain screen, which consists of tall louvered panels, can be closed over the passive solar windows to insulate the interior and protect the E.D.G.E. when unoccupied. It contains two lofts with full staircases, and the furniture is custom made for the house and is multi-functional.
The Royal Institute of British Architects has been awarding the President's Medals since the 1850s and the awards were established in their current format in 1984. The aim of these prestigious awards is to promote excellence in the study of architecture, to reward talent and to encourage architectural debate worldwide. Widely regarded as the best architectural education awards in the world, students aspire each year to be selected by their school to enter for the medals and for the opportunity for their work to be recognised and publicly exhibited. The President's Medals website features all the nominations since 1998.

Every day we receive several emails requesting a copy of the Limited Edition Book EVOLO SKYSCRAPERS which was sold out in only two months after its initial release and praised by the Wall Street Journal . We strongly believe that all interested in this 1,200-page publication (300+ innovative skyscrapers) should be able to acquire it and for this reason we have decided to print it on demand for a limited time. eVolo will take orders for the second printing until May 31, 2012 . Books ordered will be delivered in July 2012. Established in 2006, the eVolo Skyscraper Competition has become the world’s most prestigious award for high-rise architecture. The contest recognizes outstanding ideas that redefine skyscraper design through the implementation of new technologies, materials, programs, aesthetics, and spatial organizations. Studies on globalization, flexibility, adaptability, and the digital revolution are some of the multi-layered elements of the competition.

I pretty much agree with Jean Claude. And I really don't see the correlation between the writing and the architecture. It sounds as though someone has convinced themselves… Same Old, Same Old.... This type of architecture could be seen from the paper project of a regular 3rd year student to most of the streets in the Netherlands,… Desde las imágenes tu obra se percibe audaz, imaginativa, extraordinaria.Home, Building, Furniture and Interior Design Ideas

[Image: From Papillon , courtesy of Warner Brothers ]. Breaking Out and Breaking In: A Distributed Film Fest of Prison Breaks and Bank Heists —co-sponsored by BLDGBLOG, Filmmaker Magazine , and Studio-X NYC —continued recently with Papillon (1973), directed by Franklin J. Schaffner. [Image: From Papillon , courtesy of Warner Brothers ]. Papillon remains one of my favorite films, since first seeing it as a teenager (though I will come back to that at the end); however, as usual for this series, I will try to limit myself to the spatial and/or architectural themes of at play in the movie. In a nutshell, Papillon tells the story of Papillon (played by Steve McQueen), imprisoned in the overseas penal colony of Caribbean French Guiana, on the northeast coast of South America.
