<title>Old Study in Solitude / Atelier Wen&amp;apos;Arch</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Located at the eastern end of Zhongxin Village in Longmen County, Huizhou, this project transforms an old late Qing Dynasty study building into a meditation-themed art space in the village. It serves as a project for the &quot;Nankunshan-Luofushan Rim Pioneer Zone (Huizhou) Architectural Art Project&quot; organized by Fengyuzhu. The original building features a U-shaped courtyard layout with a traditional construction technique known as &quot;Gold Wrapped in Silver&quot;—consisting of an exterior grey brick skin and an interior earthen wall—punctuated by staggered window openings. Internally, fragments of wooden mezzanine components remain, sheltered by a traditional timber roof with grey clay tiles. Prior to intervention, the study was identified as a hazardous structure due to prolonged neglect, characterized by loosened walls and a decaying roof, while the interior was perpetually enveloped in dim, atmospheric natural light.The design aims to balance protective restoration with spatial intervention. On one hand, it reinforces the structure while preserving historical features, seeking to create a &quot;stratified readability&quot; of temporal traces. On the other, it employs a palette of warm and cool light to sculpt the spatial field. Through the intervention of installations, a distinction is drawn between the golden, warm light within the ancestral study and the natural, cool light of the courtyard, establishing a site of staggered, contrasting atmospheres. ]]></description>

<title>Beijing National Day School Student Creative Activity Center / Origin Architect</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Beijing National Day School is renowned for its student-led, open and free campus culture. Every year, students initiate ten campus improvement proposals, which receive full support from the school authorities.The former School Uniform Center, located in the northeast corner of the campus, was listed on the 2023 Annual Ten Practical Campus Improvement Projects due to student concerns regarding space experience and frequency of use.Originally built as an underground concrete fish pond, the building had undergone numerous extension and partition, resulting in a chaotic and disorganized function: the underground bookstore and print shop were dim, damp and poorly ventilated; the ground-floor uniform storage and exhibition area was cramped and enclosed, standing in stark contrast to the natural beauty of the surrounding pine woods. Seizing this renovation opportunity, Origin Architect seeks to revitalize the building under pines and sunshine, metamorphosing it into a free realm that stirs students&#039; sensibility and creative thinking. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ On May 13, 2026, Parks Canada, the federal agency responsible for protecting and managing Canada&#039;s natural and cultural heritage, announced the winning design for a reimagined visitor centre and community space in Banff National Park. The competition was organized in partnership with the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC) as part of the 200-Block Banff Avenue Redevelopment Project. The proposal by Paul Raff Studio and Kengo Kuma &amp; Associates was selected from a shortlist of five pre-qualified teams that also included EVOQ + Ryder, KPMB Architects, Revery Architecture, and Stantec Architecture. An independent jury assembled by the RAIC selected the design for its approach to landscape, sustainability principles, and its balance between conservation, heritage, Indigenous perspectives, and visitor experience, among other considerations. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The intervention in the Santa Clotilde Gardens introduces a small open-air theatre within one of Catalonia&#039;s most emblematic historic landscapes. Designed by scob, the project is conceived in continuity with the noucentista principles that define the garden—order, clarity and a deep relationship with the landscape—engaging carefully with its context and extending rather than transforming the existing spatial logic. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Learning something new is, biologically, a transformation of the brain. With each experience, neural connections are reorganized, creating and strengthening synapses. Far more than simply accumulating information, learning is about reconfiguring internal structures, a process that can reshape individuals and societies alike. The environment in which this takes place can cultivate curiosity, adaptability, and emotional resilience, thus supporting our next generation of leaders, or suppress those qualities, leading to withdrawal and isolation. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/villa-polo-driss-kettani</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The Villa Polo in Casablanca is projected on a 250 sqm plot in a residential area. The constraints of the neighborhood and the north orientation on the street have directed the design towards creating an inner world that is both open, intimate, and mysterious. Urban regulations have defined the general layout, the house having two adjoining houses on both lateral sides and being open on the street to the north and to a south-facing garden. ]]></description>

<title>Rethinking the High&#45;Rise: 5 Unbuilt Towers from the ArchDaily Community</title>
<link>https://architecturalwise.com/rethinking-the-high-rise-5-unbuilt-towers-from-the-archdaily-community</link>
<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/rethinking-the-high-rise-5-unbuilt-towers-from-the-archdaily-community</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ High-rise architecture continues to serve as a primary tool for accommodating density in rapidly evolving urban environments. Traditionally defined by efficiency and repetition, the tower is increasingly being reexamined as a more complex spatial and organizational system. Across different geographies, architects are testing how vertical structures can move beyond singular functions to incorporate layered programs, environmental strategies, and new forms of occupation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ 15 Khartoum Road by Choi Studio is a new workplace destination for Stockland&#039;s MPark precinct that sets a benchmark for the evolving urban character of Macquarie Park. MPark is one of Australia&#039;s largest innovation precincts for life sciences and technology, leading the way for the future of work. Master planned by 3XN, the precinct includes three commercial buildings arranged around a new park. Positioned at the heart of the precinct, 15 Khartoum Rd, forms the focal point, sitting lightly in the landscape. Located on Wallumattagal Country, Macquarie Park is one of Sydney&#039;s leading employment and innovation precincts, home to major corporations, Macquarie University, and strong transport links. Despite its economic strength, it has often been characterised by business parks that prioritise car parking, with limited open space and minimal street-level activation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Finding Nature Within the Concrete Forest - In terms of its relationship with nature, the site presents a striking contradiction. Although located next to Shenzhen Central Park, the campus is separated from it by surrounding high-rise residential towers, which form a barrier between the park and the school. The project therefore began with a fundamental question: how can nature be brought back into the everyday life of the campus? ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/studio-alt-rushnaiwala-architects</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Set within a 125-acre organic farm in Bilasya, Kathwada, two creative practices, hand-painted ceramics and bespoke speaker design, converge. The result is a design gallery that is a layered, adaptable space and resists singular definition. Its architecture reflects this plurality through exposed brick, concrete, and steel to negotiate the intersection of material and spatial dualities. The robust external mass sits in contrast to an internal tectonic lightness, recalling Henri Labrouste&#039;s Bibliothèque nationale de France. This duality informed the foundational approach of the project, balancing nostalgia and innovation while sensitively reconciling a brief for an exposed material palette. It draws from Brutalism and contemporary industrial design, allowing the gallery to hold space for both public display and private creative practice, and thus generate a layered and tactile dialogue between the built form, wood-crafted speakers, and vibrant ceramics. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In 2026, Apple marked fifty years since its founding. Over the past two decades, Apple has developed a consistent architectural language that extends its brand into the built environment, transforming stores, workplaces, and public-facing spaces into active components of its identity. These environments guide movement, frame interaction, and condition the ways in which users encounter both products and the company itself. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/how-waterways-and-memory-shape-bathroom-design</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Water has always occupied a unique position in architecture: elemental yet elusive, functional yet symbolic. It is both a material and a medium that shapes cities, structures rituals, and influences how space is perceived. Across cultures, water is understood not only as a source of life but as a carrier of meaning, associated with purification, renewal, and continuity. Its presence in the built environment often extends beyond utility, becoming a device through which architecture engages the senses and constructs atmosphere.  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Public space is often designed around a narrow idea of how people move, interact, and respond to their surroundings. ParkTEA starts from a different position. The city can also make room for those who experience space through different sensory and social conditions. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The Barbican Centre has announced In Other Worlds, a major immersive exhibition by speculative architect, filmmaker, and artist Liam Young, opening from May 21 through September 6, 2026. Occupying three distinct locations within the Barbican complex, the Silk Street Entrance, The Curve gallery, and Car Park 5, the exhibition will transform the Brutalist cultural landmark into a sequence of cinematic environments examining architecture, infrastructure, climate futures, and planetary urbanism. Developed in collaboration with writers, scientists, filmmakers, musicians, and performers, the project brings together large-scale projections, LED installations, sound environments, graphic narratives, costumes, and speculative artifacts to explore how fiction and spatial storytelling can shape conversations around environmental and technological change. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/apartment-block-grundmuhle-dolmus-architekten</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ As part of the redeveloped project, the existing single-family house was replaced by a four-story apartment block. The elongated structure opens up towards the south-west to maximize sunlight, whilst on the north-eastern side it follows the shape of the plot. In this way, the new building continues to blend seamlessly into the neighborhood and the topography. ]]></description>

<title>From Tradition to Modern Living: The Versatility and Elegance of Timber in 12 Japanese Interiors</title>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/from-tradition-to-modern-living-the-versatility-and-elegance-of-timber-in-12-japanese-interiors</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Contemporary Japanese architecture continues to demonstrate how to adapt the evolving needs of modern residents to a rich building tradition and artisanal legacy. Wood has always been the soul of Japanese architecture. In many recent residential projects, this material transcends its structural role to become the primary finish for various surfaces — ranging from floors and ceilings to furniture and architectural elements. These environments strike a delicate balance between elegance and coziness. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/contemporary-farmhouse-ashworth-parkes-architects</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ A contemporary farmhouse, rooted in the rural vernacular of North Hertfordshire. Set on a former market garden in North Hertfordshire, the site carried the remnants of a poorly constructed 1940s dwelling that had fallen into disrepair. The landscape, however, was compelling — open, exposed, and commanding spectacular views across the surrounding countryside. The opportunity was to replace it with something new that felt as though it had always been there. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The new pavilion offers a space full of possibilities. The non-prescriptive area allows for flexible layouts to suit the changing needs of its users. It provides an additional area for the adjacent café to expand, host events, while also being open for the public to stop and sit within the landscape. Moving beyond shade and shelter, the space created is ambiguous as to whether it is private or public. This ambiguity affords a generosity to the surrounding national parkland and becomes a place that can be appropriated. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The Wetland Caves Pavilion is located along the shoreline of Chuanchang Island in Xiaonanhu Town, Longyou County, Quzhou City. The unique wetland terrain surrounding the site has been shaped by long-term erosion and sedimentation from the Qu River, nurturing a rich ecosystem of plants and animals. The extensive mudflat meadows along the shoreline offer diverse conditions for experiencing the natural wetland landscape and ecological environment. Scattered across the shore are ancient cave sites, where man-made structures blend organically with nature, exuding a sense of history and mystery. ]]></description>

To translate this vision into a vibrant workplace, Ippolito Fleitz Group was commissioned to design the group&#039;s China headquarters in the heart of Shanghai.

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/architecture-that-empowers-communities-the-stories-behind-francis-keres-projects</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ &quot;My only concern is that my work must have a positive impact on the communities in which it is embedded,&quot; states Francis Kéré in his book Francis Kéré: Building Stories. His own life story, the context in which he was raised, and the experiences he has lived through all shape his approach to architecture. It is a commitment that extends to people and the places they call home—one that values materiality, collective learning, and the exchange of knowledge. Discovering the stories behind projects such as Primary School in Gando and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School inspires reflection on how to design spaces that truly serve humanity. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/old-residence-in-kitayama-td-atelier-endo-shojiro-design</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ This project is the renovation of a wooden residence approaching its centennial anniversary. The house was originally built in 1931, on a plot developed through the Rakuhoku First District Land Readjustment Project, an early urban planning scheme in northern Kyoto. Several houses from that period still remain in the neighborhood, evoking the refined residential character of the time. The current owners, a couple in their seventies, have inherited the house through three generations since it was first purchased by the husband&#039;s grandfather. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Beginning in the spring of 2022, our team commenced working on the comprehensive environmental improvement and renewal project for the surrounding Caoxi Rd. Metro Station area. The overall renewal plan had completed by July of the same year. The plan aims to establish a renewal framework through a holistic urban design approach, achieving functional transformation of a blighted area in Shanghai&#039;s urban core through a phased, incremental implementation process, and realize overall regional revitalization by integrating spatial optimizations based on functional adjustments of the metro station&#039;s internal space and its adjacent plots. At the end of 2023, &quot;Caoxi Road Pocket Park&quot;1 designed by our team was built as the first phase of the project. The second phase, &quot;the Happy Spot under the Light Rail&quot;, was designed by us in Dec 2023 and constructed by March 2025. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ This 376-square-meter plot was once simply a green lawn, not a space actively used so much as one appreciated from a distance, offering a restful patch of green for the eye. That changed when the son got married and started a family of his own. The land soon revealed itself as an ideal site for a new house, one that would allow the family to remain close while granting the younger household a greater sense of privacy. At the same time, the lawn was transformed into a courtyard to be shared between the new house and the original home. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The KinderKunstLabor is a one-of-a-kind building concept globally. It is neither a museum nor an indoor playground, but rather a large laboratory for children up to twelve years old, from all social and educational backgrounds. The space allows them to engage with contemporary art in a playful and sensory way through workshops and exhibitions at a high level. The challenge in planning was unique: the design had to be viewed from the perspective of children, while still maintaining a serious commitment to art. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/espai-verd-the-habitable-utopia-of-valencias-green-cathedral</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Even the most distracted passerby is captured by the monumental presence of this structure in Valencia’s established Benimaclet neighborhood. Before it, any attempt at rational apprehension quickly dissolves. Its constructive logic seems to escape comprehension as the space unfolds through tensions and deviations, where nothing is immediately given. Between masses of concrete and the insurgent force of vegetation, an almost choreographic play of planes, angles, and rotations emerges. In the vertigo of this encounter, one realizes that the building was not made to be understood, but to be experienced. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ On March 12, the Chilean architect of Croatian descent, Smiljan Radić Clarke, was awarded the 2026 Pritzker Architecture Prize. The jury highlighted his &quot;unorthodox approach to design,&quot; which &quot;may initially appear unusual, unexpected, even rebellious; yet, far from producing alienation or estrangement, his anti-canonical stance feels fresh and unprecedented. It conveys the unmistakable sensation of encountering something new.&quot; This recognition will be celebrated with the annual Pritzker Architecture Prize Laureate Lecture and Panel Discussion, to be held in Mexico City at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), at the Faculty of Architecture&#039;s Teatro Estefanía Chávez, on May 12, 2026. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In the windswept coastal landscape of Denmark, where meadow meets dune and pine bends in the coastal breeze, Shoreline Studio rests as a retreat for artistic immersion. Conceived as a space apart from yet connected to the rhythms of a family summerhouse, it balances Danish building tradition with the contemplative sensibility of Japanese architecture. Though restrained in scale, it unfolds with a generous sense of atmosphere, offering a place where light, material, and landscape converge. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Located approximately 300 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle, on the island of Andøya in northern Norway, The Whale by Dorte Mandrup is currently under construction along the coastline of Andenes. The small settlement is situated near Bleiksdjupa, a deep-sea canyon that brings marine life close to shore and has contributed to the region&#039;s role as a whale-watching destination. Recent construction images show the building emerging from the rocky shoreline, maintaining a low profile that follows the contours of the site. The surrounding context, including the existing lighthouse and residential structures, situates the project within an active coastal environment. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/the-lost-shtetl-jewish-museum-lahdelma-mahlamaeki-architects</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The concept behind The Lost Shtetl Jewish Museum is based on the destroyed village of Šeduva and its culture, which vanished overnight in August 1941. 664 Jews from the village were executed in the nearby forests. Along with human lives, Šeduva&#039;s long and rich history was also lost. The museum was built to commemorate the lost lives and culture, which represented not only Jewish but also European culture. The museum consists of minimalist, abstract &#039;houses&#039; with hip roofs. Together, they form a cluster of buildings—a dreamscape of a village, a shtetl. ]]></description>

Established at the beginning of the twentieth century, its early proponents were heavyweights from Europe, such as Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Mies van der Rohe. In 1923, Le Corbusier published his seminal written work, usually translated into English as Towards a New Architecture. Newness, and a rejection of history, was one of the central tenets of modernism. This manifested itself in the use of new materials such as steel and concrete, which gave rise to an unprecedented freedom of formal expression.  ]]></description>

<title>Designing with Air: Rethinking Architecture Beyond the Wall</title>
<link>https://architecturalwise.com/designing-with-air-rethinking-architecture-beyond-the-wall</link>
<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/designing-with-air-rethinking-architecture-beyond-the-wall</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Architecture is traditionally chronicled through the persistence of the solid. We define the discipline by the weight of the lintel, the mass of the pier, and the resistance of the wall. Even when lightness is invoked, it is usually understood as a subtractive act, the thinning of a section or the precarious reduction of a load. Yet there is a parallel history, less visible and harder to isolate, in which the primary material of construction is not what occupies space, but what moves through it. ]]></description>

<title>Cabin Devín / Ark&#45;Shelter + ARCHEKTA</title>
<link>https://architecturalwise.com/cabin-devin-ark-shelter-archekta</link>
<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/cabin-devin-ark-shelter-archekta</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The challenge was to design a fully functional weekend dwelling within a mere 20-square-meter footprint, achieving uncompromising comfort alongside complete energy autonomy in local climatic conditions. The cabin is situated at the edge of the Zlatý Roh vineyards, approximately 3 km above the ECK restaurant. Perched above Devín Castle, the site offers an expansive view across the vines toward the sunset over the Austrian Alps. The location carries a strong atmosphere, and our architectural intent was to create a sanctuary that provides security in every season while maintaining an immediate and uninterrupted connection with the surrounding landscape. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/student-studies-46b-carmelina-aurelio-taller-de-arquitectura</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Urban densification is often associated with verticality, an increase in levels, and the replacement of existing housing. Estudios 46B presents a different stance: densifying does not necessarily mean building higher, but rather occupying what already exists with greater intelligence. The project arises from utilizing the roof of a 72 m2 garage, transforming a minimal domestic expansion into an architectural strategy capable of questioning models of student housing and land use in intermediate cities. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Among the architectural programs most rigidly defined by function, dental clinics rank among the most demanding — bound by hygiene standards, clinical circulation requirements, and the psychological weight patients carry before even stepping through the door. Bangkok-based architecture and interior design studio space+craft confronts these constraints head-on. Within a mere 37 square metres, Resmile Dental Wellness is not simply a clinic. It is a deliberate interrogation of what healthcare architecture can — and should — feel like. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/mountain-alley-rooftop-teahouse-pavilions-ryp-architects</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Located within the historic Mountain Alley in Chongqing, this project transforms a small rooftop space along the steep stone steps of the old city into a new public gathering place. Through the insertion of two lightweight pavilions and a pink bar installation, the design introduces a subtle contemporary layer while preserving the atmosphere of the historic alley. Instead of leaving the rooftop completely open as before, these volumes are arranged to create a gentle sense of enclosure. Through their positioning, the structures frame views toward the surrounding city while shaping different zones for sitting, resting, and wandering. The rooftop becomes a place where visitors can pause, move slowly, and experience the city from above—almost like strolling through a small garden in the air. ]]></description>

<title>200 Years of Innovation in Architectural Glass</title>
<link>https://architecturalwise.com/200-years-of-innovation-in-architectural-glass</link>
<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/200-years-of-innovation-in-architectural-glass</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Scientifically, glass is defined as an amorphous solid, meaning its atoms are not arranged in a regular crystalline structure. This is why the material is often described as a &quot;liquid frozen in time.&quot; This structural configuration explains one of its most distinctive qualities: transparency. Without a crystalline lattice capable of scattering light, radiation passes through the material with relatively little interference. Although it often appears delicate, this same structure also allows glass to achieve significant mechanical performance. With industrial processes such as tempering, lamination, and specialized coatings, the material can reach high levels of strength, safety, and environmental performance. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The Terrace House began with a simple question: if a household consists of only two people and a dog, how should a home be organized to truly support their way of living? Rather than following the conventional model of a family house, the project defines itself through shared living spaces and a generous upper terrace that becomes the center of everyday life. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/calibrated-instability-daryan-knoblauch-on-building-with-tension-time-and-light</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Daryan Knoblauch&#039;s work sits at the intersection of architecture and live cultural production, with a focus on how space is made legible through tension and atmosphere. Rather than treating temporary work as a lesser category of architecture, Knoblauch approaches installations, stages, and event architectures as full disciplinary problems—where enclosure, stability, light, and movement must be resolved with the same seriousness as any building, often under tighter constraints and faster timelines. ]]></description>

<title>Saint&#45;Denis’ Brutalist Îlot 8 Housing Complex by Renée Gailhoustet Faces Controversial Redevelopment Plan</title>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/saint-denis-brutalist-ilot-8-housing-complex-by-renee-gailhoustet-faces-controversial-redevelopment-plan</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Saint-Denis is a commune in the northern suburbs of Paris, France, known for the Gothic Basilica of Saint-Denis and the Stade de France. At one corner of Place Jean-Jaurès in its historic center, adjacent to the Basilica, stands the Îlot 8 housing complex, a Brutalist landmark designed by architect Renée Gailhoustet. Built between 1975 and 1986 to provide workers&#039; housing in the city center, countering the trend of relegating social housing to peripheral areas, the project is now at the center of a controversial redevelopment plan. Often referred to as &quot;residentialization&quot; and restructuring, the proposal involves the demolition of significant parts of its original design. This reconversion is part of the French Nouveau Programme National de Renouvellement Urbain (NPNRU) and is justified by concerns over structural deficiencies, safety, and maintenance. ]]></description>

Yet behind successive layers of wall finishings and suspended ceilings, the architectural integrity of the building remained intact. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Across cultural platforms, heritage sites, and institutional developments, this week&#039;s news reflects how the built environment is reshaped through processes of transformation, reinterpretation, and public engagement. From archaeological reactivations and adaptive reuse strategies to museum expansions and large-scale international gatherings, architecture operates across multiple temporalities, balancing preservation with contemporary use and spatial continuity with evolving cultural programs. Within this context, ArchDaily&#039;s selection of installations and exhibitions from Milan Design Week 2026 highlights how design weeks increasingly function as curatorial frameworks for experimentation, while global events and institutional projects continue to expand the formats through which architecture is produced, shared, and debated. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/designing-for-movement-in-a-workplace-built-for-sitting</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ For all the spatial experimentation of the contemporary workplace, one condition has remained largely unchanged: people are still sitting. Studies suggest that office workers spend up to 89% of their working day seated—close to 36 hours a week—despite decades of ergonomic awareness. As workplaces become more flexible, social, and design-led, this contradiction becomes harder to ignore. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In the high desert of the San Rafael Valley, a few miles from the United States-Mexico border in Lochiel, Arizona, an adobe schoolhouse has stood for more than a century. Built before 1905, before Arizona was an incorporated state, the schoolhouse served generations of Mexican American students from Arizona and Sonora, cultivating shared cultural experiences, stories, and relationships that transcend physical and political boundaries. Over decades of education and shared histories, it became a place where language and narrative moved freely, even as geopolitical tensions continued to rise along the border. Today, it is one of the last remaining one-room adobe schoolhouses in the United States. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Enigmatic and eclectic, Suupaa is a first-of-its-kind, hospitality concept for a hybrid fast-casual Japanese restaurant and konbini convenience store. Acknowledging the cultural significance of &#039;konbinis&#039; in Japan, the design for the venue extrapolates key aspects of the familiar typology into the modern fit-out, bringing forward ideas of utilitarian materials, fastidious organisation, efficiency, and innovation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Astaka Kota Selera is a sensitive architectural intervention that reconciles the preservation of Malaysia&#039;s colonial heritage with the vibrant, lived reality of its contemporary street food culture. The project is a pivotal component of the North Seafront Improvement Programme in George Town, Penang, born from a unique archaeological necessity: the reinstatement of the Western Moat of Fort Cornwallis. The original food court sat directly atop the historic moat&#039;s alignment; to allow for the excavation and reconstruction of this defensive landmark, the culinary facility required a strategic relocation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ On the basis of the former Chengde Industrial Park in Zhongjiang County, the Deyang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government established Deyang Kaizhou New City, and decided to pool the city&#039;s strength and focus resources to advance the development of the new city. Kaizhou New City has become another industrial pearl on the eastern foot of Longquan Mountain, following Huaizhou New City, Jianzhou New City and Airport New City. Developed since the Han Dynasty, the Renmin Canal fully demonstrates its evolution from an ancient water conservancy project to a modern large-scale irrigation area. It showcases the technological achievements of water conservancy construction and commemorates the historical memory of the joint efforts of educated youth and local residents. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/climate-and-collective-use-architectural-permeability-in-latin-america</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Architecture is often understood as a matter of enclosure. Walls define space, separating interior from exterior and establishing clear limits. Yet across many projects in Latin America, this distinction becomes less precise. Rather than operating as closed objects, buildings often remain open, allowing air, light, and movement to pass through them. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/startt-designs-new-access-to-the-archaeological-areas-behind-the-pantheon-in-rome</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The Pantheon in Rome is globally known as a major tourist and architectural icon, a built testimony to both Greek culture and Roman technique, and a symbol of the Roman Empire. The monument was recently intervened upon by the Italian architecture studio STARTT (Studio of Architecture and Territorial Transformations). The project, titled Pantheon – Micro Architectures for Archaeology, was promoted by the Italian Ministry of Culture as part of a program of interventions initiated in 2019 to open public access to the archaeological areas of the Pantheon. STARTT&#039;s project represents the first phase of the program, focusing on opening a new entrance from the Pozzo del Diavolo, an area located behind the monument&#039;s Rotunda, allowing visitors to access parts of the building&#039;s archaeological fabric that were previously reserved for technical functions. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/the-root-cabin-kasawoo</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Amidst the rolling vineyards and ancient olive groves of Zakynthos, the Root Cabin by London-based architecture practice Kasawoo presents a bold and quietly radical response to the pressures of tourism-driven development in rural Greece. Compact yet deeply intentional, the 2.5m x 8m prefabricated timber retreat champions minimalism, off-grid living, and cultural rootedness - a sharp contrast to the sprawling concrete villas increasingly dominating the island&#039;s landscape. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The site of this project had complex and stringent constraints. Due to various regulations, it was not possible to freely shape the building form, and among these, the most restrictive condition was the setback regulation. As a result, the building naturally recedes as it rises, creating terraces along the way. We considered this a good excuse to persuade the client to create an apartment with terraces. In Korea, balconies are generally assumed to be enclosed and incorporated into the interior space. However, the terraces resulting from the setback regulation are unavoidable. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/the-alchemy-of-mass-peter-zumthor-and-the-perception-of-lightness</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Architecture begins as an encounter with gravity. It is the ancient act of placing weight upon the earth, of persuading matter to stand, hold, and shelter. Within this fundamental condition of heaviness, however, lies a quieter possibility: density itself can generate a sense of lightness—a perceptual condition in which the body, fully convinced of matter&#039;s weight, begins to experience space as suspension. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The University of Toronto has revealed the design for the Temerty Building, a new facility for health research and education at the heart of the university campus. The project was designed by MVRDV and Diamond Schmitt Architects in collaboration with Two Row Architect. It builds on a previous collaboration between the first two offices at the University of Toronto Scarborough campus, scheduled for completion in late 2026. The project was first introduced in Temerty Medicine&#039;s 2018-2023 Academic Strategic Plan and envisions a 36,000-square-metre extension to the university&#039;s Medical Sciences Building, including laboratories for higher education, classrooms, and shared spaces. Work on site is expected to begin in the second half of 2026, starting with preparatory work in July. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The Bass Museum of Art has appointed the Los Angeles-based architecture practice Johnston Marklee to lead the expansion of its campus in Collins Park, Miami Beach, advancing a long-term vision that integrates architecture, landscape, and contemporary art. Founded in 1964 following the donation of the John and Johanna Bass collection, the museum is housed within a 1930s Art Deco building originally designed by Russell Pancoast as the Miami Beach Public Library and Art Center. Over time, the institution has evolved through architectural interventions, most notably the campus framework introduced by Arata Isozaki, which establishes a dialogue between the historic fabric and contemporary additions. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Loud noises, the continuous hum of equipment, abrupt changes in light, or intense reflections often go unnoticed. For neurodivergent individuals, these stimuli can provoke significant discomfort or even intense physical and cognitive reactions. The term &quot;neurodivergent&quot; refers to people whose neurological functioning differs from what is considered typical, encompassing conditions such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, as their brain  processes information differently, particularly in relation to sensory input, attention and emotional regulation.  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In late 2024, an event was held in the grounds of the recently refurbished colonial-era Palais de Lomé in the capital of Togo. Students from the architecture university of Lomé were attending the first Lomé Architecture Encounters (RAL #1), curated by the transdisciplinary Studio NEiDA, and which involved lectures, film screenings, workshops, and building visits. A parallel exhibition displayed the country&#039;s most significant architecture through history. The purpose of the event was to explore the architectural heritage of Togo, and it would be the start of a journey that crosses borders, asking questions about the conservation of modern heritage. Unlike colonial buildings like the Palais de Lomé itself, which are more appreciated and readily restored, neglected modern buildings like the Hôtel de la Paix require creative, bottom-up approaches to return them to their former vitality. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ This project is for a new office and residence for a construction company with a 50-year history in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. The client owned two large warehouses near the site, both overflowing with unused timber—mostly surplus wood ordered in bulk by the previous generation, who had been a carpenter, along with reclaimed lumber collected during demolition. Although there were no clear plans for its use, the material had continued to accumulate year after year, too valuable to discard. Many construction companies and lumberyards across Japan hold similar stockpiles of timber lying dormant in warehouses. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The renovation of Villa Serena 204 began as a personal and professional mission to challenge Japan&#039;s &quot;scrap-and-build&quot; culture. Located in a historic modernist building designed by Junzo Sakakura, the project seeks to prove that aging architecture can gain value through thoughtful intervention. The core inspiration was the tension between the building&#039;s rigid 600mm structural grid and the fluid lifestyle of its occupants—an architect and a casting director. By embracing the &quot;ambiguity&quot; between work and life, the design breathes new life into a modernist relic, transforming it into a high-functioning home and studio. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In 1962, the architect Buckminster Fuller envisioned a floating city that would free humanity from its dependence on the Earth. The speculative project consisted of enormous geodesic spheres that would naturally levitate in air warmed by the sun and be anchored to mountaintops. Designed to house thousands of people, Fuller’s Cloud Nine aimed to ease land ownership pressures, address housing shortages, and contribute to environmental preservation. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ The French museum and cultural institution Centre Pompidou is opening a new Korean branch in collaboration with the local Hanwha Foundation of Culture. Well known in the architectural field for its French headquarters, designed by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers and recently closed for renovations, the Centre Pompidou is expanding its international presence with a new venue, adding to its sites in Spain, Belgium, China, and the United Arab Emirates. The Korean building is a 12,000 m² renovation project at the base of the 63 Tower skyscraper, led by Wilmotte &amp; Associés. Located on Yeouido Island, along the banks of the Han River, and at the heart of Seoul&#039;s financial district, the Hanwha Seoul Pompidou Center is conceived as both an exhibition venue and a meeting point where education and art converge, offering adaptable spaces to host a broad range of activities. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Anna Bakay&#039;s office occupies the first floor of a historic building in the heart of Kyiv, reading more like a private gallery or an intimate workshop than a conventional notary practice. From the outset, the project was guided by a clear set of values – silence, tactility, soft light, a grounded connection to nature, and the complete absence of visual noise. Located on Tereshchenkivska Street, the space opens onto Shevchenko Park on one side and a quiet inner courtyard on the other. Designed for a team of five, the office unfolds as a calm, cohesive environment rather than a sequence of strictly functional rooms. ]]></description>

<title>Light Structures, Heavy Footprints? The Environmental Paradox of Lightweight Materials</title>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/light-structures-heavy-footprints-the-environmental-paradox-of-lightweight-materials</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Using massive s plates, often several centimeters thick and weighing tons, Richard Serra&#039;s sculptures convey an almost improbable sense of lightness. This effect does not result from a reduction of mass, but from how that mass is organized: large curved surfaces tilt, narrow passages compress the body, and seemingly unstable elements create a constant sense of imbalance. Serra transforms weight into a dynamic spatial experience. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ In 1971, the then-owners of a row-end single-family home located in one of the historical neighborhoods of Madrid incorporated into it one of the iconic objects of the imagery of developmental Spain: the blue pool. For their private use, they decided to build a pool, sacrificing nearly all of the twenty-eight square meters that made up the backyard of their home, which until then had been a place for children&#039;s revelry and a respite from domestic tasks. It is possible that the decision was made simply in response to changing circumstances: with the children grown and the housekeeper working outside the home, the yard fell into disuse; or perhaps, it was the pool, as a fantasy imported from postcards of sun and tourism, that managed to carve out a place as a desire among other domestic needs. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Residential architecture continues to offer a productive ground for unbuilt exploration, revealing how architects respond to site, climate, and constraint at the scale of the domestic. In this Unbuilt edition, submitted by the ArchDaily community, the selected projects bring together a range of proposals that reconsider the house not as an isolated object, but as a spatial system shaped by its environment. These works position architecture as a framework that negotiates between ground, material, and inhabitation, often emerging directly from the conditions of the site. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ For more than a century, the Pignatelli Reservoirs were part of the system that supplied water to the south of Zaragoza from the Imperial Canal. Built in the late 19th century, the complex consisted of four large open reservoirs measuring 125 x 40 meters and 4 meters deep, capable of storing up to 80,000 m³ of water. Over time, these infrastructures fell into disuse, leaving a significant urban void next to the Pignatelli Park. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Immersed in the City - The Relocation and Expansion Project of Wuning Middle School in Putuo District, Shanghai — The relocation and expansion project of Wuning Middle School (now name as The Second High School Affiliated to Tongji University) is situated at 186 Dongxin Road, Putuo District. This site is located within the Inner Ring area of Shanghai, surrounded by densely populated residential neighborhoods. To the north, it borders directly on Light Rail Line 3 and the Inner Ring Highway. This location experiences heavy traffic volumes and features high building density. After arguments by the relevant urban planning authorities, it has been decided to relocate the school from the northwest to the southeast side of the site through a land swap strategy. This new strategy will provide efficient space for a modern secondary school with an expanded capacity of 40 classes. ]]></description>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/elevated-infrastructure-and-public-space-reclaiming-the-ground-below</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Elevation is often framed as progress, lifting movement above the friction of the city and smoothing circulation into uninterrupted flow. Every act of lifting produces a secondary condition in its wake. Beneath flyovers, metro lines, and railway viaducts, a second ground emerges as shaded, ambiguous, and rarely planned with the same intent as what moves above. These spaces are not incidental leftovers. They are the spatial consequence of a design decision that privileges speed, clearance, and efficiency, redistributing value and visibility across the city in the process. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ There are projects that begin long before the design. In Itaipava, in the Fluminense mountains, an old stable from the São João de Icaraí Farm stood as the last vestige of a rural past: an isolated, silent volume, surrounded by vegetation. When we were invited to intervene in the property, the central question was not just to renovate a building that is almost 80 years old, but to understand how to transform this agricultural space into a contemporary country house, without erasing the geography and identity of the place. ]]></description>

But then the time came for him to build a house and get married. He confided to the architect that he probably won&#039;t travel much anymore, and he will spend more time in the house.

<title>Shanghai Jiao Tong University Student Service Center / TJAD/Zeng Qun Architecture Design Studio</title>

<description><![CDATA[ Under the contemporary educational philosophy that places &quot;student-centeredness&quot; as a core principle in universities, the student center has emerged as a significant new building type on campuses in recent years. This particular project sits at the edge of the campus. Originally not part of the university&#039;s initial master plan, it had to be accommodated on a site chosen as opportunities allowed—long and narrow, running north to south. To the west, it already brushes against the campus boundary, backing onto a busy urban expressway; to the east, it neighbors a scenic lake with lush, water-close greenery. Unlike the ample, orderly land reserved for academic and research functions, this site carries an inherent quality of being at the &quot;edge.&quot; How to respond to the character of this marginal zone and unlock its hidden potential became the key to the design. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Located on the Sunshine Coast, Australia, Nojoor was inspired by both our client&#039;s enthusiasm for design and the beauty of the bushland site.

<description><![CDATA[ The project of Dexamenes is one that matures gracefully over time, like wine—a story of continuity, gentle projection into the future, and constant entropy. Quiet reinvention has become part of its character: the hotel evolves in modest gestures, extending itself, layer by layer, season by season. ]]></description>

<title>What Lies Beneath: 10 Projects Reshaping the Ground Level</title>

<guid>https://architecturalwise.com/what-lies-beneath-10-projects-reshaping-the-ground-level</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Architecture has long been drawn to the idea of lightness. From early modernist experiments that sought to preserve landscapes, elevating buildings has been understood as a way to preserve the ground while maintaining continuity across the terrain. Volumes are lifted on columns, infrastructures detach circulation from the surface, and entire programs are suspended above the ground. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ November 28, 2024 - Manila, Philippines - Carlos de Castro said the Philippines has grown in popularity as a spot for expats from the USA and Europe in recent years.
