Improvement of the embankment of the City Bay RC

The proposals for landscaping the area are based on the idea of creating a green embankment within walking distance from the City Bay residential complex. This makes it possible to organize a quiet green area in the city. All project decisions are dictated by careful attitude for the territory. Due to the steep relief, walking routes are arranged on natural terraces. On the upper tier there are cycling and walking routes, on the lower tier there is a path along the river. Environmental regulations limit interference with the natural environment and exclude the possibility of holding public events. Caption In this regard, the improvement project provides the creation of a park with quiet recreation areas, including observation areas an... More

Cocobrew Express Yeppoon

Cocobrew Express is situated on the outskirts of Yeppoon, Queensland. The project seeks to subvert the traditional Drive Thru typology whilst enhancing amenity for motorists and pedestrians alike. Cameron Murchison Cameron Murchison The Drive Thru is a familiar building typology in Central Queensland. An underwhelming building that would otherwise be missed by passing commuters is forced to display its whereabouts with a pylon sign, separated from the building itself. This solution is not only inefficient but also contributes to the visual clutter found along our streets. The question that Cocobrew Express thus sets forth is: how can the building itself become the pylon sign? Despite its compact 72m2 footprint, the building utili... More

Maison Saint-Laurent

  The clients have tasked the studio with a project involving the expansion of a bourgeois house dating back to 1810, alongside the restructuring of its ground floor. Situated within a sprawling property resembling an "archipelago" with various buildings scattered across two hectares of land, the extension is envisioned as a cohesive addition to the overall setting. Hethos   Situated within a rural landscape, the Saint-Laurent house stands at the center of a vast property. One of its distinctive features is its adjacency to several auxiliary structures, including an unused outbuilding. The proposed extension of the main house is viewed as a chance to increase living space in currently cramped and dimly lit areas, while als... More

House in the woods

Ramon Fontestad Park in Rocafort

The Ramón Fontestad Park is located, like a large balcony overlooking the huerta (Valencian historical orchard), on the eastern edge of Rocafort, bordering the Real Acequia de Moncada. This large green space acts as a mediator between the city and the orchard, dignifying this urban edge that until recently remained abandoned. Milena Villalba Milena Villalba Milena Villalba The design of the park refers to Rocafort's stonemasonry past, evoking, through the introduction of subtle topographic games, the quarries of Rocafort and Godella with which a large part of the historical Valencian buildings were constructed. These "new quarries" and the topographic elevations of the park, serve to articulate routes, uses, vegetatio... More

Caves & Waves

THE IDEA A landscape characterised by sparse, mostly low and bushy vegetation. Few trees – mostly cedars - are visible in the region. A harsh, dry, rocky, Mediterranean landscape with earthy colourations. A sloping landscape, eroded at its lowest point by constant direct contact with the sea. The natural formations and cavities of the rocky terrain, created by the long-term exposure to the sea water, were the starting point for the compositional design.  KAAF KAAF THE MYTH The myth unfurls through the dual meaning, firstly of the cavity, or cave, as a receptacle for residence, and secondly of water, the sea waves, as a potential natural source for producing kinetic energy capable of shaping both the actual formation...
