Architectural vision: ANA AMADO.

Ana Amado is a great spanish photographer.

In her works, she reach the sense and the history of a project.

This is the Hipòdromo de la Zarzuela a Madrid: a powerful but misunderstood work by Arniches y Domínguez (arquitectos) y Torroja (ingeniero), realized in 1941

The photographic vision of Ana Amado enhances the tension of the lines sought by the authors.

Norvegian Dream: WILD REINDEER CENTRE PAVILION!

The Norwegian Wild Reindeer Pavilion sits on a spectacular site on the outskirts of Dovrefjell National Park

The building design is based on a contrast between a rigid outer shell and a soft organic-shaped inner core.

The core is shaped like rock or ice is eroded by natural forces like wind and running water.

A wooden interior is placed within a rectangular frame of raw steel and glass.

Its shape creates a protected and warm gathering place, while still preserving visitor’s access to spectacular views.

Windows as Tuscany pictures: CORSICO & LISSONI !

 

This rigorous project , realized in the countryside near Grosseto, maximizes the internal / external 

relationship.

Each window is designed like a painting: size and frame are the result of a detailed study.

The Tuscan countryside is the true protagonist.

The interior walls, paintings of absolute white, exalt the changing colors of the Italian gentle nature.

Ironic Factory: ANDREA OLIVA AT REGGIO EMILIA !

With a conservation and innovation mixed process, the italian architect Andrea Oliva returns a new dignity to an old foundry, looking to it like a new place, but also as a strong testimony of the industrial history of the territory.

Today this building, called "Capannone (Shed)19", has become a new operative space for offices, meetings, conferences.

The skyscraper appears to be levitating above the trees: the dream of LC about the Modern Way of Life.
