Le campus de Live Oak Bank à Wilmington, en Caroline du Nord, célèbre son site serein et boisé tout en répondant à l'objectif de la société de créer le meilleur environnement de travail possible pour ses employés. Les bâtiments s'inspirent d'une palette de matériaux commune composée de cyprès, de verre et d'acier pour s'intégrer à l'environnement naturel tout en créant une esthétique moderne.  Le premier bâtiment du campus est ancré par un salon central surplombant la cour centrale et la terrasse ; les ailes de bureaux élancées de deux étages créent un sentiment de transpa...

The project, which won the architectural project competition for the Ted Ankara College Campus with a capacity of 6000 students in 1998, was implemented in 2005 and educational activities have begun. Conceptualized and designed by Semra Uygur and Özcan Uygur, this campus is a city simulation accomplished adopting the principle that education should create its own urban life even if it is in an area remote from the city. As a result of this design principle, TED Ankara College Campus operates as an actual city with the daily circulation routes designed considering the diversity of common indoor-outdoor areas, functional arrangement, meeting of various users, and the requirements emerged within the process. deniz uygur cemal emde...

This project sits in the Church Road Conservation Area in Crystal Palace, South London and consists of a complete refurbishment of a beautiful, historic five-bedroom house and a rear extension.  Unlike with many other projects, the brief here was not to create more area but to enable the clients to fall in love with their home of 27 years again and to make better use of the existing space. This has been achieved by cutting down on circulation area, refurbishing existing bathrooms and moving some into new locations and by providing a more functional and generous kitchen with a new dining area that looks out onto the garden. Further to that we have also created a proper home office, in order to finally provide a nice, tranquil environme... More

The Project is located in Ares, a coast town that belongs to A Coruña. It is about reforming an isolated single-family house, with a very characteristic slate roof.  The plot is elongated, with a steep slope that descends into the sea.  Different platforms are generated in which the house and the pool are located.  In the lower area is an auxiliary building. The entrance to the house is produced by the north area of the plot.  It seeks to unify the house employing two materials that dialogue with existing ones, the wood and, the black aluminium, both indoors and outdoors. The ground floor is reformed, forming a large wooden plinth.  On this floor the old gallery opens with large windows to enhance the spe... More

First prize to Díaz y Díaz arquitectos and Miba Architects in the ideas contest with jury intervention, for the reorganization of the Administrative Complex of the Xunta de Galicia in San Caetano, Santiago de Compostela. This proposal seeks to provide an effective solution to the integral reorganization of the Complex of San Caetano. The biggest problem is providing shelter to all the workers during the execution of the work, hence the creation of a new built volume. This New Building will act as a sponge capable of absorbing staff transfers during the works, and once executed, will be part of the new offices, providing relationship zones and allowing the opening and reorganization of current work spaces, as well as improving...

The Face(ade): Patinated copper and bronzed iron are richly defined against the subtle uniformity of cream colored plasterwork. A clear grained Cedar scrim finished in a natural hue of pale rose add a neutral element to the overall composition. The openings are large and intentional, with the reflective sheen of the plate glass defining the form and spatial dynamics of the project.​The Soul: A generous use of plate glass through-out the project affords a feeling of lightness especially between the roof deck and living room, where a glazed volume breaches the ceiling plane and materializes as a decked stair and landing assembly. A rich millwork selection from Maple to Hickory softens the living layer and balances out the exposed st... More

Vrelec Business Center is placed at the entry point towards the center of Rogaška Slatina town and hosts a program for the “business incubator” for smaller entrepreneurs. Its orientation towards the promenade of Rogaška`s health-park is accented by the sightseeing point at the top floor loggia and by the longitudinal body. Thus the building establishes a connection to the urbanistic axis of the town, and also a height emphasis at the town`s main roundabout intersection. The shape of the building is a reaction to the irregular shape of the plot and nearness of other structures. Longitudinal overhang over the glazed ground offers some shelter for the semi-public space. The outer arrangement comprises also climbing pl... More

The site of Daylighthouse 2 is next to the huge lake IJsselmeer. In between the lake and the house is a beautiful swamp for birds. Almere planned row houses on this location and the town house is the end of a row facing south west. Mirck Architecture translated the wishes of the client into a wooden cube of 9 by 9 by 9 meter. The facade, inner space and climate are influenced by sunlight and daylight. The particular structure of the cube is shown everywhere and continued in the plot wall and the shed.The ground floor living space is fully glazed to the south and west side. The sun protection is created by the cantilevered bedroom volume above. To the north, a split level opens the inner space, creating voids. In the voids special shiny roun... More
