Prompt: In order to create a lush and vibrant center of interaction, the host municipality has divided the area around Himeji Station into three main areas: an entrance zone centered on the plaza before the north exit, a core zone located to the east of the entrance zone, and an event zone. Located in the event zone, Arcrea Himeji is a hub for culture, art and industry in the Harima area, developed in cooperation with the other zones and integrated with the site’s west-side park in order to enhance its attractiveness.
Prompt: Surrounded by railroad lines, the Arcrea Himeji is located in Himeji City, a core city in West Japan overlooking Himeji Castle, an established World Heritage Site. A lush park and architecture connect the site to Himeji Station and an adjacent hospital. The facility’s MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) functions distinguish it as a center for not only culture and art, but also for knowledge, including industrial knowledge. The building was designed to provide visitors with a casual experience of culture and industry as they pass through, allowing them to make new discoveries. At the same time, the symbolic interior and exterior design, which employs stacked bricks in the motif of the castle’s stone walls and high-performance halls are aimed at conveying Himeji’s charm as an international tourist city.Connecting via park and architecture
Prompt: The building is completely devoid of added color or paint, both inside and out; “primitive” grey concrete is its only signature. Rather, it might be more correct to say that one does not “feel” its color in the traditional sense. Instead, the space allows a sensitivity for light, materials, and a grasp of more a natural essence. This pursuit of “simple beauty” is divorced from secular worldly trends. The gymnasium is designed to be an extension of the everyday; as students ascend the floors, their experience becomes gradually more extraordinary. However, the design intent is not that the everyday is “inverted” into the extraordinary, but rather into a more common, “everyday” experience. When designing this gymnasium, our thoughts were on the idea of architectural expression that can be modern, but also “universal” in the sense that it can belong to any era.
Prompt: With small and large holes bored into the walls of the arena at strategic locations, natural daylight that penetrates to the arena core is pale and dim, akin to a midnight sun. This orientation obviates the need for blackout curtains. The facility’s interior and exterior were both finished in fair-faced concrete. Ornamentation was kept to minimum to clarify the composition of the building. The structural layout is akin to a temple; the intent of the spatial configuration was to create a place where users can learn the “essence” of things.
Prompt: Generally speaking, gym windows are covered with blackout curtains when competitions are held. With this project, however, the aim was to create a gym allowing indirect natural light suitable for indoor exercises and blocking strong direct sunlight to afford a feel for the outside environment.
To achieve this goal, four structural “tubes” were designed around the perimeter of the arena. These tubes have an important role to play in the operation of the facility, as they house air conditioning, lighting, and sound equipment. Access is possible through hatches built into the walls. The outermost tube is the most spacious, and functions as a corridor, an indoor running track, and as a passageway for indirect light to pass through to the arena.
Prompt: Wóolis was named by the workers, or rather artisans, who gave life to the built space. Its meaning in Mayan is ball, round, circle; they called the house this way referring to the central cylinder, the heart of the project. Located north of the city of Mérida, Yucatán, in a secondary street in Temozón Norte, Wóolis is a place that invites us to observe and remember our origins, a contemporary observatory that provokes us to discover the passage of time that can be seen in the lines that the sun and the upper lattice of the cylinder paint on the walls at different times of the day, traces that change their location during the year due to the varying inclination of the sun. Taking advantage of the orientation of the plot, the function of the central cylinder is to allow the passage of light to the central space, where the pool is located, however, given its great camber, it provides the space with enough shade during sunrise and sunset to exempt the use of a roof on the terrace, allowing the space to be inhabited below shade most of the day. Its strategic location, right next to the interior social area, achieves the link between both spaces by opening all the sliding doors.
Prompt: Wóolis is an exercise of self-construction, the client was the one who led the work process and coordinated all the actors who participated in it. It is a project that does not pretend to be unique due to its luxurious materials and coatings, on the contrary, it finds that luxury in the rigid sincerity of its elements, giving full prominence to light and its interaction with the project.
Prompt: On the other side of the social area there is a patio with a large álamo tree from where the project allows the cylinder to be seen from afar, anticipating the surprise that it will be to be below it. Wóolis is a home that has three patios, the first being the most public and the one at the back the most private; among them are three living interior bodies: services, public spaces and private spaces.
Prompt: Taking advantage of the orientation of the plot, the function of the central cylinder is to allow the passage of light to the central space, where the pool is located, however, given its great camber, it provides the space with enough shade during sunrise and sunset to exempt the use of a roof on the terrace, allowing the space to be inhabited below shade most of the day. Its strategic location, right next to the interior social area, achieves the link between both spaces by opening all the sliding doors that separate the interior from the exterior.
Prompt: Wóolis was named by the workers, or rather artisans, who gave life to the built space. Its meaning in Mayan is ball, round, circle; they called the house this way referring to the central cylinder, the heart of the project.
Prompt: In terms of lighting design, we set up many indirect color-changing LED light strips on the bar counter, tabletop, wine cabinet, etc., hoping to use the light to create a sense of hierarchy and link extension in the space. On the light bar of the stairs, it is deliberately designed with "half", which enhances the design effect of the stairs going up and reduces the intensity of the light, avoiding the problem of glare.
Prompt: We merged into Forte through the imagination of hanging the logo in the space. The curved staircase echoes the curve on the left side of the logo, and the metal surface gradually shrinks to match the brick wall, bringing out the vision of upward rotation. The curved stainless-steel mirror on the top surface symbolizes the cup's rim in the middle of the logo. The two create a visual illusion that the ceiling is staggered and hovering upwards. The space is accompanied by the dynamic interaction of music and alcohol. We hope that guests can also feel a relaxed and happy atmosphere when creating high tension in the space.
Prompt: CAA LAB was incubated and developed by CAA Architects, aiming to create a new metaverse parallel world for human beings in the WEB 3.0 era and create a future "city of tomorrow". Earlier this year, five projects of CAA LAB landed on Decentraland, the world's largest metaverse platform, and all won awards in the global metaverse architecture competition sponsored by it.
Prompt: Entering the city hall, passing through the multifunctional central hall on the first floor, users can be quickly guided to the required services. The center of the building is a vertical transportation core. The suspended independent spaces are connected by air bridges on each floor. After the preliminary consultation is completed, users can reach their corresponding municipal service spaces.
Prompt: CAA LAB actively responds to the needs of digital citizens for public services and social activities in the Meta City, and creates the administrative and civic center of the "City of Tomorrow" - Meta City Hall in a digital twin. The city hall building as a whole is a vigorously growing "tree of life" respecting human nature. With abundant leaves growing on the branches, it becomes a floating island that grows gradually from bottom to top. The decentralized space system also makes them independent and not interfere with each other.
Prompt: The Meta City Hall, designed by the CAA LAB led by architect Mr. Liu Haowei, was recently completed. The project is CAA LAB's first metaverse building completed in China and located in a creative utopia and a futuristic metaverse city – Meta City. It was created with the support of “Creator City”, a Metaverse product of Chinese tech giant Baidu. As the creator of Meta City Hall, CAA LAB also participated in the preliminary scheme and planning of Meta City. CAA LAB team used the usual digital and surreal design methods to express an oriental romanticism architectural language, and created this Meta City Hall called the "Tree of Life".
Prompt: Permanent stables, community clubs and private homes, as well as 5 villas are set up, guided by a setback line 200 meters from the shoreline, with the rest of the post used for mobile guest rooms and camping. The mobile rooms scattered around the base are inspired by fragments of ice sheared by icebergs and sparkle like gems. The mobile flexibility provides easy views of the surrounding landscape, and the large glass roof also provides the best view of the Northern lights.It becomes the best station providing tourists with different sizes, flexible living and activity spaces.
Prompt: The base and its future development intention are the two foundations of the planning and design. In order to closely link the two together, the original appearance of the base is adjusted while different functions are used to meet the needs of the project through the design method. Inspired by Iceland's volcanic landscape and unique topography, CAA designed the site's landscape fissures, which cause the overall surface of the site to rise and undulate. Thus, the logic of the formation of the terrain space is applied to the generation of the spatial form of the building, and the architectural appearance like a volcano is designed. The various functions are embedded in these waves and folds, and the new scenery and landscape is protected, hidden and exposed by using the local traditional turf house construction techniques.
Prompt: Iceland, a Nordic island nation in the North Atlantic ocean, is home to some of the world's most unique and incredible natural landscapes. Iceland's volcanic region, known as the Land of Fire and Ice, blends seamlessly into vast glaciers and waterfalls; Iceland is also an ideal place to see the northern lights.The project is adjacent to Lake Myvatn, with a vast landscape across the swamp on one side and mountains on the other. The north is the best direction for viewing the Aurora borealis. Inspired by the unique geographical location and natural environment, the design concept of "ice and Fire" is adopted to create a two-way link between architecture and natural ecology and achieve harmonious coexistence between human and nature.
Prompt: Conceived as a reaction to the strict geometry of the master plan, the Art & City museum by MAD Architects is an amorphous building that seems like it has landed on the earth. Its surrounding dunes, monumental stairways and belvederes have been generated from the empty Gobi desert which was here just a few years ago. Located in the new city center of Ordos, the space itself is deeply rooted into the local culture. Although it has contemporary presence, there is a chance to think over what the term “local culture” means, where it is rooted and what it can become in the future.
Prompt: The movement could also engage with cutting-edge research into green technologies that complement the green-tower-in-the-sky aesthetic. For example, at first glance, renderings of SOM’s Urban Sequoia project appear to be textbook examples of the Solarpunk aesthetic. However, Yasemin Kologlu, architect and sustainable design leader at SOM, has spent years leading research the research that is represented in the renderings. Leveraging existing technologies and emerging solutions, the utopian visions of Urban Sequoia envision an architecture that employs bio materials (made of cyano-bacteria, hydrogel, sand, warm water), nature-based micro algae systems for carbon sequestration and technologies that can transform their buildings into sources of biofuel. (If you’d like to hear more about the project, check out Yasemin’s Future Fest talk, now available as a free recording.) When backed by research, the Solarpunk aesthetic can be an effective tool for raising money and attracting clients to put the nascent technologies into action.
Prompt: Conceived as several bubbles, the futuristic extensions appear as though they’ve landed on the rooftop from a different planet. However, their mirrored surfaces soften into the site, reflecting the surrounding buildings and trees. The material contrast is respectfully stark; neither iteration of the residence is forced to conform to the other. Instead, they coexist in comfortable communion. It’s a compelling example of how small-scale architectural interventions can breathe new life into period structures.
Prompt: If you’ve spent some time in online architectural forums recently, maybe you’ve stumbled upon images of “Solarpunk architecture.” Generally characterized by grand, swooping biophilic structures replete with vertical forests and solar panels, and in which people live in happy harmony with nature, these renderings evoke a utopian future that might be mistaken for science fiction. But the impressive graphics belie a serious political and social movement intent on taking architecture into a radically greener, more sustainable direction.
Prompt: This L-shaped house goes to extreme lengths to preserve the pre-existing trees on the wooded lot by incorporating them quite literally into the building’s footprint. The house includes a series of small courtyards that interweave pre-existing vegetation and offer ample privacy for each section of the building. Meanwhile, the faded smooth paneled concrete quietly blends in with the house’s stone walls, adding to the house’s peaceful harmony with the surrounding forest.
Prompt: Re-thinking the form and shape of historical and traditional carpets will reactivate the capacity of this object as a decoration. The carpet texture, which in the X and Y axes tries to represent the space like flower gardens, was used in an alternative way to ornament objects that have been somehow recreated in the Z-axis, and this has led to the reproduction of the flower garden on this axis. In this way, the form and shape of Isfahan traditional carpets are out of the previous familiar position (spread on the ground) and used in weird reality and unfamiliar situations.
Prompt: Our team’s solution to the current crisis, and to turn it into the best economic opportunities in the future, is the continuous production of electricity from serial and large waterfalls such as Niagara Falls, but this time in the ocean. Large deep waterfalls that surround the prison with a very purposeful approach create another stunning view of Madagascar island as a point of interest for tourists, and many tourists will be traveling there to see this stunning view. In this touristic prison, after receiving the necessary training and skills, the prisoners interact directly with the tourists. Each prisoner is responsible for their physical needs and their society, which they achieve by farming on the farms in prison and trading with the community. This process will reform and rehabilitate prisoners for a healthy economic life in society, which is one important reason for reducing crime in the country. After a few years and decreasing crime, the prison is expected to become a multi-purpose hotel and tourist hub with waterfalls in the ocean to produce green energy.
Prompt: Move east more than 500 km from the southeast coast of Africa, and you will reach Madagascar, a rich country in natural resources. Graphite, chromite, bauxite, coal, and most importantly, renewable energy resources from water are just some of the natural resources of the fourth-largest island in the world. In addition, the habitat of various animal types and nature that cannot be found anywhere else on earth encourages any tourist to travel to this amazing country. But due to the severe lack of access to electricity, the country’s economy has always been in crisis. Altogether, less than 20% of the population has access to electricity, which means more than 75% of the population lives in poverty. We know poverty is the most important factor in the significant increase in crime. More than 50% of prisoners are pre-trial detainees and the population of prisoners increased by more than 150% in the last 10 years, which means the prison occupancy level has also increased to more than 230%. Our team’s solution to the current crisis, and to turn it into the best economic opportunities in the future, is the continuous production of electricity from serial and large waterfalls such as Nia
Prompt: This building is more than just a functional machine: it responds to the significance of being located at the junction of two main streets, elegantly bearing its landmark status and acting as a gateway to the city beyond. It is something beautiful, sculptural and human. Despite its landmark status, the emphasis is not solely on height. Our design features a continuous balcony that surrounds the whole building, eliminating the vertical barriers traditionally used in high rise architecture. The entire building rotates by different degrees at different levels, corresponding with the surrounding scenery.
Prompt: The scheme also conserves the courtyard's original spatial layout, aesthetic and material temperament, restoring it to its original glory; with the wood filigree panels lining it having been stripped of their stains and returned to their original lustre. Glazing along the street front has been replaced with transparent glass, maximizing natural light on the interior. From here, no one suspects the existence of the 'bubbles' beyond.
Prompt: MAD’s design introduces several sculptural 'bubbles' onto the site. One connects the first and second floors with a staircase, emerging onto the terrace to function as a meeting space. Another appears as if it has landed on the rooftop. They seem foreign in their context, but their smooth mirrored surfaces reflect the surrounding ancient buildings, trees and sky, blending into the environment, with old and new complementing one another.
Prompt: Organized over four floors, the scheme encompasses a museum, a small and large auditorium (356-seats and 1000-seats respectively), a series of conference rooms and studios, and additional exhibition areas throughout. The focal point is a skylight positioned at the centre of the roof that allows natural light to flood into the interior. It acts as a symbolic metaphor for the bright ideas and brilliant discussions generated during the events held within. Windows throughout have been positioned so that even from indoors, people can enjoy uninterrupted panoramic views of the surrounding natural scenery throughout the seasons. Public plazas located at both the entrance and posterior of the building open up towards the natural backdrop creating a dialogue between architecture and nature. The chameleonic existence of the design’s reflective exterior expresses how the architecture relates and changes state with its surroundings, making a subtle, but powerful statement in its unique context."
Prompt: Surpassing the complex opera house typology, MAD articulates an architecture inspired by nature and saturated in local identity, culture and art. As the Harbin Opera House deepens the emotional connection of the public with the environment, the architecture is consequently theatrical in both its performance of narrative spaces and its context within the landscape.
