This intention has been translated into a structural system that performs various tasks: the possibility of light, shadow, ventilation and also to provide temporal storage space.

Der Bau liegt auf einer begradigten Fläche des zum Wasser abfallenden Hangs. Durch die leichte Erhöhung ergibt sich eine optimale Aussicht über den Lake Simcoe.
Wood Reclamation. Stone Creek Camp / Andersson Wise Architects. Architects: Andersson Wise Architects Location: Bigfork, Montana, USA Project Team: Arthur Andersson, Chris Wise, Christopher Sanders, Becky Joye Contractor: Bigfork Builders, Martel Construction Project Year: 2008 Photographs: Art Gray This remote Montana Camp is situated along a sloping hill, leading visitors to discover the site progressively. From the gatehouses, a path leads down the hill to the master house, main lodge, and guesthouse. The buildings offer warm, almost cave-like spaces as well as expansive porches, open to the views and sunlight. Small windows and thick walls facing into the slope of the site are contrasted with entire walls that open up towards the lake. Inhabitants may choose to be outdoors while inside by sliding open walls or moving outside to spaces that are more civilized than the outlying wilderness.
The materials and textures of these buildings connect them to the site. Tree House / Mount Fuji Architects Studio.

Wicker Membranes / Andrea von Chrismar. The wicker weaving technique is associated with the traditional manufacturing of small utilitarian objects. This technique installed in Chile since colonial times, stands out for its potential to build complex and resistant shapes given by the flexibility of the fiber and rigidity provided by the weaving.
Based on these properties, this project by Andrea von Chrismar explores the manufacturing of the weave, this time in relation to the field of architecture. This research explores the potential of a natural raw material and an ancient technique of patrimonial nature, regarding new usage options. More images and architects’ description after the break.

Emilio Marín. Emilio Marín D ecirlo en este momento suena un poco obvio, e incluso innecesario;pero asistir a mi primera bienal de arquitectura como estudiante fue un descubrimiento que me llenó de energía y que en el tiempo dio sentido a una componente central en mi relación con la arquitectura. El hecho de poder ver mucha gente, en un mismo lugar, personas de distintas universidades y lugares del país, alumnos y arquitectos con el ánimo de comunicar con mucha convicción lo que estaban pensando en ese momento.

All work produced in the camp carries two attributes: it’s mostly made of wood and it’s characterized by an interplay of art and social commitment. Hello Wood integrates various fields of art, design and science; it creates community and encourages talent. It brings together students and professionals across borders, moreover connects everyday people with the designer community.
This year the camp was held in the countryside close to lake Balaton, on the premises of an old manor, Csorompuszta, amongst endless cornfields, with an astonishing view on a valley surrounded by hills. The installations were built with respectable team-leaders from Poland, Austria, Germany, England, Spain, The Netherlands and Hungary. Enrique Soriano / Pep Tornabell. Vincent van Duysen. DC Residence . mA-style architects: Light Walls House. The Light Walls House designed by mA-style architects in Toyokawa City stands in a shaded location next to a two-storey house on its south side.
