484ca857-f170-4bf5-821b-a7d59b6c0824 | architecture | null | The Vernayaz Sports Hall, emerging from an architectural competition, is a celebration of community and innovation in the heart of Vernayaz. Designed by Swiss architects Comamala Ismail, this project embodies the vision of connecting the village centre with the sports complex and nature.
The hall’s location east of the SBB railway line, amidst the sports area, is strategic. It not only serves as a meeting point for athletes but also reinforces the link between public spaces across the railway tracks. The design speaks of pragmatism and simplicity, focusing on solutions to meet unique community needs while showcasing an elementary yet rich architectural style.
The building's strong minimalist identity is accentuated by its monolithic concrete exterior and warm wooden interiors. The layout creates a new public space, turning towards the sports fields, and signifies the hall as the centrepiece of the sports complex.
Materials are used in their rawest form, enhancing the architectural experience and complementing the striking surrounding mountainous environment. The hall dialogues with nature, using minimal synthetic materials, emphasising light and acoustic comfort. |

7e061b5a-e086-4a68-941e-6ae0de4ac0ca | architecture | null | Nestled in a quiet corner of Tokyo, the House in Nishioizumi, designed by the Toyama-based architect Tomoko Fukayama (Fukayama Architects), stands as a testament to minimalist Japanese architecture. The house, with its unassuming exterior, invites one into a realm of tranquil simplicity.
Upon entry, one is greeted by an open-plan layout, where each element coexists in harmonious balance. The use of natural light is a standout feature, casting soft shadows across the sparsely furnished spaces. The colour palette is understated, with neutral tones accentuating the feeling of calmness.
The furnishings, though minimal, are carefully selected to provide functionality without clutter. Clean lines and unobtrusive designs are the hallmarks here, aligning with the minimalist ethos of less is more.
Furthermore, the interplay between indoor and outdoor spaces blurs the boundaries, allowing nature to become an integral part of the living experience. Large windows offer sweeping views of the surroundings, further enhancing the peaceful ambience. |

Inspired by the area's renowned fall foliage and boulders, the design captures the park's dynamic environment. Rocks from construction enhance the front yard, creating a natural landscape that regulates plant growth. The residence's standout feature, an expansive front wall, acts both as a barrier and an opening to the front yard, offering unique perspectives of the landscape.
The layout comprises two rows of three interconnected 4-metre-wide spaces, fostering unity and flow. The southeast-facing courtyard and outdoor deck blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, allowing tenants to experience the natural elements intimately. Doldam's thoughtful minimalist design with its striking orange palette, while emphasising natural light and airflow, creates an immersive, harmonious retreat, seamlessly integrated with its environment. |

f6b46ffd-48a4-4cbb-a3ce-e78f8698c10a | architecture | null | Doldam, a private rental residence in Seorak National Park designed by New York based architects ONE-AFTR, exemplifies architectural harmony with nature. Inspired by the area's renowned fall foliage and boulders, the design captures the park's dynamic environment. Rocks from construction enhance the front yard, creating a natural landscape that regulates plant growth. The residence's standout feature, an expansive front wall, acts both as a barrier and an opening to the front yard, offering unique perspectives of the landscape.
The layout comprises two rows of three interconnected 4-metre-wide spaces, fostering unity and flow.

290dd9c4-98fc-4c89-b224-e20eaaf4e191 | architecture | null | Studio Cochi Architects designed the House in Nakagusuku in a fresh residential area on Okinawa's main island. Unlike typical housing areas, this one boasts open fields and vacant lots, creating a bright and airy environment. The project takes inspiration from traditional Okinawan homes that blend seamlessly with their surroundings.
In Okinawa, homes were historically built with a deep connection to nature. The houses and their surroundings were seen as one, with fences and plants serving as extensions of the building. These elements provided privacy, protected against natural forces like typhoons, and bridged the gap between private and public spaces. Gardens played a crucial role, creating a comfortable living area where wind and light played a significant part.
The House in Nakagusuku reimagines this traditional concept, integrating nature in various ways. The minimalist building occupies an almost square plot, with the primary living space split into two sections: a south-facing living room and a north-oriented private room group. Gardens surround the building on the south, centre, east, and west. The southern and western gardens act as a buffer between the house and the city, while the eastern garden offers a private space, keeping a comfortable distance from the neighbouring house.
Studio Cochi Architects cleverly connects the scattered gardens, creating a pathway for light and wind throughout the house. Recognising the residential nature of the area, they also introduced semi-external spaces, blurring the lines between the indoors and outdoors. |

04af4063-7dd5-46a5-a1f5-135a148b8ac9 | architecture | null | Located in the North of the Netherlands, the K2 house, designed by Francois Verhoeven Architecten, stands out as a striking example of minimalist design and sustainable living for a family of five. Built with wood-frame construction due to the seismic activity caused by natural gas extraction, the K2 house departs from traditional brick construction, ensuring resilience and a contemporary look.
Architecturally, the K2 house is designed for both form and function. Most of its glass facades face south, optimising natural light, while an overhang on the south facade prevents overheating in summer and invites sunlight in winter. Solar panels and a geothermal heat pump ensure minimal energy consumption. What's remarkable is the discreet placement of the solar panels, concealed on the roof, presenting a commitment to both sustainability and aesthetics, proving that clean energy sources can blend harmoniously with the environment.
Material choices emphasise low maintenance and natural aging. Predominantly wooden, concrete, and anodised aluminium, the house will gracefully evolve over time, with wood turning grey and aluminium and concrete remaining almost unchanged.
The K2 house's spacious entrance hall serves as the central space connecting all parts of the house, designed to be more than functional; it welcomes guests and residents alike. The house's minimalist details, free of gutters and roof edges, contribute to its unique character and spatial quality. Window frames are seamlessly integrated into the walls and concealed behind wooden siding, creating an unobstructed view. |

They placed the museum in Rodez's renovated Foirail garden, bridging the historic centre and modern districts.
The minimalist building consists of cubes with openings reminiscent of Aveyron's "fenestras," inviting contemplation. Corten steel clads the exterior, aging gracefully, harmonising with the natural park, and reflecting Pierre Soulages' work.
The design prioritises the collection's preservation. Practical volumes with controlled lighting secure delicate pieces, while five tall "boxes" protect paintings and Conques' stained-glass windows cardboards under zenithal light.
The museum aims to be a global reference for modern and contemporary art. Pierre Soulages played a pivotal role in the museum's concept, focusing on his Conques Abbey stained glass windows. The collection includes preparatory works, early paintings, walnut-stain pieces from his youth, and his complete printed works.
The Soulages Museum is not static; it's a dynamic venue for art. It features a large temporary exhibition space and plans to host national and international events. It's a tribute to its heritage and an embrace of the future. |

The Soulages Museum is not static; it's a dynamic venue for art. It features a large temporary exhibition space and plans to host national and international events. It's a tribute to its heritage and an embrace of the future. |

They placed the museum in Rodez's renovated Foirail garden, bridging the historic centre and modern districts.
The minimalist building consists of cubes with openings reminiscent of Aveyron's "fenestras," inviting contemplation. Corten steel clads the exterior, aging gracefully, harmonising with the natural park, and reflecting Pierre Soulages' work.
The design prioritises the collection's preservation. Practical volumes with controlled lighting secure delicate pieces, while five tall "boxes" protect paintings and Conques' stained-glass windows cardboards under zenithal light.

d154bd65-0d4c-4096-b94d-33e2e20dcc7f | architecture | null | Perched atop a hill 30 metres above sea level in Nanjo City, Okinawa, Japan, KI-HOUSE is a minimal masterpiece that takes full advantage of its remarkable location. Designed by the renowned Kubota Architect Atelier, this unique house offers a panoramic view of the ocean to the east, with a touch of the sublime that only this part of the world can provide.
The house is a blend of contemporary design and the awe-inspiring Okinawan landscape. Splitting the long and narrow site into two halves is a cleverly inserted wall. On the frontage side, the building appears half-underground, seamlessly integrated into the earth, allowing it to embrace the natural surroundings. From the front, the volume of the structure is hidden, creating the illusion that its roof hovers in harmony with nature. The roof is gracefully tapered, minimising its surface thickness to create a sleek and unobtrusive profile.
KI-HOUSE enjoys a unique vantage point, offering a breathtaking view of Kudaka Island to the front and the historic Sefa Utaki, a UNESCO World Heritage site, to the rear. It's as if this residence has been strategically placed at the crossroads of two sacred locations, immersed in the beauty of the environment and the serenity of the best possible vistas.
In terms of structural design, the house incorporates two robust concrete walls, offering resilience against natural disasters like typhoons. These walls are embedded into the ground at right angles. A parallel concrete slab forms the roof, lending an air of suspension and lightness to the structure.
Inside, passing beneath the low eaves of the floating slabs, you begin a descent down a slope into a white tunnel-like space. Emerging from the other side, you're hit with a flood of natural light. The play of light and darkness, the caress of wind and water, all converge to create an atmosphere of freedom. This residence stands as a testament to how architecture can seamlessly blend with the environment, offering a unique and transcendent living experience. |

5119ec8f-84bc-412b-a3d4-f3a6ff95a475 | architecture | null | In the heart of Hasama, a quaint corner of Oita, Japan, a unique dwelling stands out in a residential complex. This house, designed by Atelier Kenta Eto Architects, boasts a distinctive charm with its one-storey structure featuring three 10-foot gabled roofs. These roofs are lined up as if in perfect harmony, giving rise to three distinct spaces within.
The first space serves a dual purpose, functioning as a shop and dining area, with an integrated kitchen. It's a versatile hub that caters to the needs of the residents and welcomes guests with open arms. This part of the house blends seamlessly into the neighbourhood, offering a warm and inviting ambiance.
The second space, a gallery that opens up into a delightful courtyard, is the heart of the house. This central, semi-outdoor area is a pristine white canvas. It can serve as an elegant setting for art exhibitions, creating an inviting gallery space, or it can simply be a tranquil courtyard, allowing residents to appreciate the rows of cherry trees gracing the eastern side of the building.
Finally, the third space is dedicated to residential living, offering a cozy and serene retreat within the residence. Here, one can unwind and enjoy the quiet comforts of home life.
What truly distinguishes this house in Hasama is its thoughtful design, creating a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics. The gabled roofs lend a touch of elegance to the structure while the layout of spaces provides a balanced mix of public and private living.
This house in Hasama is not just a home; it's a work of art in its own right. With its unassuming exterior and versatile interior spaces, it seamlessly weaves into the fabric of the neighborhood, embodying the essence of modern living with a nod to the traditional charm of Japanese architecture. |

ab0f8711-5e49-4864-b7b5-14204a8a90d0 | architecture | null | In Aubervilliers' craft district, Geley Architecture has created a bespoke atelier for photographers. This multifunctional space, comprising storage and indoor-outdoor photography areas, maximises the available plot and height within regulatory limits.
The building, resembling a black box, opens up through five generous windows, flooding the interior with natural light. This connection bridges the gap between the interior and the vibrant surroundings.
Utilising local materials, particularly a steel hangar, the architects optimised the structure, allowing even more light infiltration. From floor to roof, every space is designed to capture the interplay of light and the urban context, creating a simple and rational architectural backdrop for photography.
The atelier is a celebration of minimalist design, where light and the cityscape merge to enhance the art of photography. It's a space that empowers creativity while respecting environmental considerations, and stands as a true gem in the heart of the commune's craft district. |

1ff95250-3217-4381-99aa-b675e7ed770e | architecture | null | Perched on the rugged cliffs of China's Jiming Island, the Cliff Café and Tower House, a creation by Trace Architecture Office (TAO), blends seamlessly with the island's dramatic landscape.
This project consists of two key elements: the Cliff Café, a horizontal structure embedded in the natural cliff and projecting out over the coastline, and the 'Tower House,' a slender vertical residence. TAO's design aims to integrate this harsh terrain with minimalist concrete, giving the impression of emerging from the rocks.
The Cliff Café's flat roof mimics the land's contours, directing attention to the sea's horizon. One end extends beyond the cliff's edge, creating an illusion of detachment from the mountain, as though it reaches out to the sea.
Visitors descending into the café experience a sense of entering the mountain's core. Enclosed by concrete walls, they reach the cantilevered section, where they hover above the sea. A dimly lit tunnel leads to a space with panoramic sea views, including a serene meditation area beneath the rugged cliffs.
The Tower House stands tall like a lighthouse, its compact 4.5 square metre footprint in stark contrast to the vast sea. Inside, living spaces are stacked vertically, each featuring a unique picture window offering diverse perspectives of the distant horizon.
Through this interplay of horizontality and verticality, the Cliff Café and Tower House bridges the gap between land and sky, seamlessly harmonising with its natural surroundings. |
