The Prada Aoyama Epicenter is an six floor 5-sided polyhedral building design for the coming of the 21st century and is part of a number of Prada Epicenters around the world. This was the general idea for the design after taking the surroundings into consideration. Zoning regulations created the positioning and abstract look of the building. The design can be compared to a crystal, or even a prototypical house. A plaza is added as public space for passersby to admire the building.Courtesy BIG ‘Our pavilion for AUDI renders visible the invisible forces that flow through our city – the driverless car is relying on sophisticated sensory and computational technology that constantly observes and calculates the dynamic space that the living city constitutes. The result is an architecture of movement whose forms have not been predetermined by the architect but are constantly being recomposed by the people populating the pavilion.’ Now, when we are overwhelmed with new designs, ideas, beautiful visualizations, which we often don't have time to fully understand, we have a problem with selecting those which will really work in the future.

Kai’s Notes on Architecture | Research, Inspiration, Observation, Musings
What would it take to get YOU sharing your ideas on architecture with more of Pittsburgh, and more of the world? The Pittsburgh Architectural Club (PAC) was recently restarted as a vehicle to increase the quantity and quality of dialogue about architecture in Pittsburgh. PAC was conceived as a venue for all people in our community interested in architecture to dialogue in both professional and social ways. We also hope to attract the attention of the world beyond southwest Pennsylvania to the treasures of our City. We believe we’ll all benefit if the energy and communication related to architecture rises in our community.Coffee with an Architect
