弗曼住宅
BOSSLEY ARCHITECTS 设计,位于新西兰奥克兰市。这是一座三层住宅,地上两层,地下一层。室内宽敞明亮,设计独树一帜,韵味十足。
This three storied house (two levels above ground, one below ground) is located up a long tree lined
driveway on a stunning site with views out across Karaka Bay to Browns Island right around to Music
Point
The plan focuses around the pivotal central space that welcomes visitors and extends the lounge
space for large gatherings, and also connects the different parts of the house together horizontally and
vertically A curved wall of fine vertical cedar battens rises up through the space from the basement
level and defines one edge of the atrium
A steel and timber central stair connects the three levels of the house At the upper level the stair
connects to a bridge across the atrium to the main bedroom area which has magnificent views out
across the water Two other bedrooms and a bathroom are also accessed from the bridge at the upper
level The stair also leads down to the wine cellar in the basement
The interior spaces flow from one to the other but are defined by the use of freestanding cabinetry
elements and pivoting or sliding panels to close down spaces to make them more intimate as required
The exterior spaces are an extension of the interior spaces; large sliding doors open up the atrium,
lounge and dining spaces to honed concrete terraces on either the seaward or pool side of the house
An outdoor room with fireplace extends the lounge space to the pool

洛杉矶日落别墅
McClean Design 设计,位于美国洛杉矶。室内装饰华丽融合现代风格,花园露台,享受着日落美景。
The house is approached by means of a gated driveway and guard house Passing through the gate a landscaped hedge leads to the drive
court which is centrally located between the house, garage, and guest house The garage sits in a spot that enjoys spectacular views of the
surrounding canyons so we designed it to be glazed on both sides All three buildings are connected by a water feature that leads the eye to a
pool and spa at both ends The main house is approached along the water feature by means of a short stair which leads to the front hallway,
glazed and open on three sides with room for a significant art piece on the focal wall The entry leads to a stairwell where a beautiful chrome
and stone stair ascends to the upper level bedrooms Directly ahead is the living room, doors open to the right where the dining room is located
overlooking the water feature To the rear, tall suede door lead to the library/ informal media room where pocketing doors access a private
landscaped garden An interesting feature of this room is that the same film is projected on both sides of the drop down screen allowing people
to circle around and watch from both inside and out
The main living room is two stories tall and enjoys spectacular views of the Los Angeles Basin and the ocean beyond The room incorporates a
bar and glazed wine cellar as well as an elongated see through fire place that is visible from the family room on the other side The combined
kitchen and family room has a more intimate feeling than the living room and appears to float over the water feature From here it is possible to
look back along the water past the garage all the way to the guest house and beyond This room also enjoys wonderful views of the city below
and leads directly to the back yard, covered dining area and expansive elevated terrace below the infinity pool This terrace is designed for
entertaining large groups and incorporates an extended fire feature and comfortable seating This level of the house is completed by services
spaces and an office for the owner
Below the main level are two large bedroom suites each with their own outdoor area Across the lower courtyard is the gym and wellness
center Located directly below the garage it incorporates sliding walls of glass to make the most of the mild climate The upper level of the
house contains the master as well as two additional bedrooms At the top of the stairs there is a gallery space that looks into the living room below and out to the water feature The master bedroom
itself has his and her bathrooms complete with large closet areas The sliding panels of glass surrounding the bed and sitting area open automatically to the deck which reveals the best view of the
house enjoyed by this room The other two bedrooms are expansive and have their own walk in closets and separate baths
Across the drive court from the main house a separate and independent guest house contains two bedrooms, living, dining and kitchen and its own services spaces The palette of materials is designed
to be warm and contemporary We have made extensive use of polished stone and added wood elements for warmth All kitchens and bathrooms in corporate Italian furniture and fixtures, windows anddoors are bronzed aluminum The house is located in one of Los Angeles most famed neighborhoods, only minutes from Sunset Strip yet still enjoying a piece and serenity made possible by the

Hive-Inn™ 都市农场
OVA Studio 设计,位于美国纽约。这是一个城市农场,一个生态系统,自给自足,可持续发展。雨水收集提供灌溉,光伏模块产生电力,可生产西红柿,玉米,家禽等。
Hive-Inn™ City Farm is a modular farming structure where containers are designed and used as farming modules and acts as an ecosystem where each unit plays a role in producing food,
harvesting energy and recycling waste and water The idea of this ecosystem is to bring farming down-town and grow fresh produces near their urban consumers
Containers can be owned or rented by major organic brands, local restaurants or even serve as private local gardens / kitchen gardens They can also serve educational purposes for the
neighbouring schools Containers can be taken out, plugged-in or replaced to switch usage from farming to hotel rooms, service apartments and offices etc The Hive-Inn™ structure
shows here another aspect of its possible uses (see Hive-Inn™ Hotel) and demonstrate its versatility
We chose New York City as an iconic landing site for the first Hive-Inn™ City Farm, near the U.N headquarters to symbolize the world-wide adaptability and versatility of this concept
• Hive-Inn™ is a Hong Kong trademark and a Hive-Inn Ltd a Hong Kong start-up company that is going to handle its related businesses
• We are looking for partners worldwide to invest and/or develop the first prototype with us
• Interested parties are welcome to get in touch with us: contact@ovastudio.com
1- The Idea
Our contemporary cities are expanding at an exponential rate, with forecasts of over 70% of the world population living in cities by 2025 And in the process more concrete is poured, the
urban landscape becoming and built concrete and asphalt jungle
We theorise that this urban population will eventually thrive to reconnect with nature and we propose that Hive-Inn™ City Farm act as catalyzer of this demand, some form of “seed” that will
disperse itself in the urban landscape and slowly transform it to a “better” environment
Beyond this theoretical idea we also believe that today’s food production is completely disconnected from the end-user who has little say on how and what food are produced
Hive-Inn™ City Farm by its scale allows citizens to take back command of their food production, through community based kitchen gardens, neighborhood cooperatives and supermarkets selling locally grown produces, from Producer directly toConsumers with no intermediaries
Various forms of cultivation are proposed, such as traditional open air (conservatories) for the containers on the periphery of the structure to high-tech and organic hydroponic cultures under artificial lights (LED’s and controlled environment) forthose containers were natural light is not available (http://www.ekophotons.com/) In addition small live-stock, fish farming and bee hives are envisaged, which beyond providing food are also extremely good “attractors” for urban kids
2- The Mecanics
• Movability: In keeping with the spirit of Hive-Inn™ Hotel the structure is seen as an assemblage of movable parts (the containers), we envisage that:
• Containers with different functions can be slotted in, such as hospitality (Hive-Inn™ Hotel) or residential, to increase profitability and/or exposure The interchangeability of the components of this structure will provide exiting new combinations forcity dwellers
• When individuals that own a garden container, relocate elsewhere, the container can be shipped to the new location
• Hive-Inn™ City Farm could be envisaged as a nursery for Hive-Inn™ Hotels providing them with “greened” containers
• In order to maximize production during the cold winter months in the northern hemisphere, the open type containers could be shipped to southern latitudes and replaced by artificial light containers, and vice versa in a constant round about cycle
• That organic food producers could come and go as markets dictate
• Containers are placed in the grid via a hoisting platform managed through crane control and optical placement software
• Each container is connected through flexible connections to services via technical cassettes that are “fed” through the structure core
• Environmental:
• We envisage Hive-Inn™ City Farm to be a sustainable structure The principles will be as follows:
• Rain water harvesting to provide watering water for plants and fish tanks All rain water is gravity fedthrough collection tanks (3 levels of plant rooms)
• Recycling of the “used water” from fish tanks to water plants (used as an organic fertilizer) Recycling of the WC grey water through reed beds and polishing plants for flushing water
• Recycling of human waste and animal waste through a multrum to produce compost (to be re-used in the structure) and methane plant to produce gaz and ultimately electricity Organise a waste paper collection and using organic waste (reedbeds) to feed the methane plant
• Provision of photovoltaic arrays to produce electricity (See magnesium chloride based cells - http://www.nature.com/news/bath-salt-chemical-promises-safer-solar-cells-1.15464)
• Provision of low wind turbines to produce electricity (and water, if using EoleWater technology http://www.eolewater.com/)
We envisage that the concept is also well suited for other modern and vibrant cities such a Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai, Beijing, Berlin, Rotterdam, Toronto, Seattle, etc
4- The Finances & Markets
Hive-Inn™ City Farm is owned at 100% by Hive-Inn Ltd, a company incorporated in Hong Kong This start-up is where the incubation and development of the idea will happen For this to happen we are now in the process of opening the capital ofHive-Inn Ltd to investors, being angel investors or even crowd funding (depending on jurisdictions) Our first round of funding is intended to cover feasibility studies (Technical, Financial and Commercial) and to develop a prototype at a total cost
of approximately US$1.5 million This round will be open soon to investors
City dwellers are “hungry” for clean (organic) and affordable food stuffs and we believe that Hive-Inn™ City Farm can tap into this market which is still in its infancy
When the concept is mature we believe it will attract partners for the development of the physical structure, this will happen with further opening of the capital of Hive-Inn Ltd and through a licensing process These partners are not necessarily “bigfinance” but through a crowd funding process be the “community” at large, Hive-Inn™ City Farm becomes a participatory model
The revenues generated by Hive-Inn™ City Farm are essentially from food production, which we believe can be sold at lower prices than those of present organic produces, because we cut off transportation costs and costs associated with
middle-men In addition revenues from advertising (as in Hive-Inn™ Hotel) can be generated through visual marketing for food and organic companies
Containers can be rented out to individuals of companies whether for farming or other uses, which are possible streams of income We are just beginning to grasp the incredibly diversified operational and occupational scenarios that Hive- Inn™has to offer These scenarios are open to community based decisions outside the control of large corporations, a citizen structure that has as many possibilities as there are unique individuals

赫尔辛基中央图书馆
Urban Office Architecture 设计,位于芬兰赫尔辛基市。新的赫尔辛基中央图书馆与周围的公园成为一体,设计的概念基于人类大脑,图书馆不同的区域有不同的职能,并维护一种连续性和一致性。
MAIN PRINCIPLES BEHIND THE ARCHITECTURE AND CITYSCAPE SOLUTION
The new Helsinki central library serves as an extension of the natural park surrounding it The park filters itself into the library traveling from the
West to the East of the city block becoming “trapped” into building structure The park pushes the masses both horizontally, North and East,
and vertical, ground to ski The result is a U shape building elevated thought a ramp traveling from the ground level and culminating in a roof
terrace Furthermore, the horizontal force of the park divides the building into two wings, North and East and transforms itself into an interior
reading garden Horizontally, the building is connected by the café at the ground level and the restaurant and sauna at the top level liked by a
direct elevator The trapped park forms two panoramic windows seeking to escape via looking in the direction of the Parliament building to the
West and Alexandria to the South All the knowledge brought into the library by the city through the park makes the new Helsinki central library
the brain of the metropolis; a direct receiver and transmitter of information clearly reflected by its constant ever-changing program of events and
its permanent collection of knowledge
“Dura Mater is a thick and dense, inelastic, fibrous membrane which lines the interior of the skull Its outer surface is rough and fibrillated and
adheres closely to the inner surface of the bones, forming their internal periosteum, this adhesion being most marked opposite the sutures and
at the base of the skull Its inner surface is smooth and lined by a layer of endothelium it send four processes inwards, into the cavity of the
skull, for the support and protection of the different parts of the brain.” [Gray’s Anatomy, Henry Gray and H.V Carter]
The concept for the New Central Library of Helsinki is based on the Human Brain, metaphorically connecting the city of Helsinki with its natural
creative engine, the Library Like the Human Brain, whose various areas manage different functions, the library is organized in very different
zones and functions, some completely opposite in character and nature
These functions are all “kept together” by the exterior building envelope which creates a sort of continuity and consistency throughout the building Similar to the Dura Mater of the brain, the Library
envelope carries information both to its users and as a response to the environment around it
Spirit, Mind, Body
The Library is accessible on its roof via a ramp that begins at grade on the main piazza The promenade ascension is both a physical experience of the changing cityscape and the spiritual counterpart
to the idea of “change” in mind Similar to Dante’s journey, the sloping uphill can be experienced as a transformative moment, arriving at the top floor room which faces south towards Alexandria andthe Finnish Parliament
IMPACT OUT
Alexandria and the Parliament
The Library ultimate view points are the two large window-rooms of the top floor restaurant, Jazz bar and Sauna These spaces face west and south, aligning respectively with the Parliament and
House of Music, and the trajectory of the Alexandria Library in Egypt These views activate a connection to the past, present and future of the library and welcome visitors to re-experience it in a forwardthinking dimension
IMPACT IN
Full space and Lobby Garden
Inside the Library spaces are diverse, complex and exciting Organized around the central garden lobby, which can be designed as an enclosable winter garden, the two main wings of the library andthe east and west bridges act as extension branches from the central garden core, similarly to the beautiful and serene areas created around the trees
URBAN LOCI
Reciprocal Feeding
The Library acts as a receiver and emitter of information creating a “8” figure loop with the city of Helsinki and the World at large Different from an enclosed enclave which protects knowledge, the DuraMater Central Library collects and spreads knowledge at the broadest possible scale
OVERALL TECHNICAL STRATEGY: DURA MATER PERFORMANCE ENVELOPE
This building is designed to use the building envelope as the primary thermal and electrical generator and regulator and uses the district heating, cooling and grid electricity as efficient back-up The
technical systems of this building are primarily housed within the multi-layered assembly of the building envelope carrying an interior and exterior narrow planar cavity or plenum for the flow of energyand material (hydronic heat, ventilative air, DC electrical) A translucent isolative core of aerogel, luminous concrete or motorized shading is bounded on both interior and exterior by these cavities andthe surface is enclosed with and interior and exterior dual pane insulated glazing units This sophisticated jacket allows overall capillary-scale distribution of heat, air and electricity to all areas of the
building and assists the building to distribute, balance and exchange the heat produced and heat consumed; fresh air delivered and stale air exhausted, electrical energy generated and electrical
energy consumed in a constant flow of self-regulation, assisted by a full network of skin-integrated sensors
The intelligent envelope plugs into the four vertical shafts at the north end, south end and center of the building plan to gather distribution vertically and connect to the building center mechanical area inorder to plug into a central brain unit, heat exchange, electrical control, water to water heat pump, air supply and exhaust, as well as the connection to the district heating and cooling
ENERGY SUPPLY SOLUTION
The building will utilize district heating and cooling along with grid electricity only when the collection, exchange and balancing capacity of the intelligent envelope requires additional energetic input
Water-to-water heat pumps will be employed to provide cooling and/or heating required for the building as the inputs required to balance the whole of the integrated system flows
The building envelope incorporates building integrated photovoltaic panels (BIVP) in the exterior insulated glazing unit on surfaces facing SE, S and SW to produce electrical power
The building envelope operates as a neural network of production collection and distribution for heat, air and electricity, coordinated by a large network of sensors throughout the same surfaces Theseare connected together through a central responsive logic and uses the district heating and cooling connection and grid electricity as back-up when required or more efficient than the building scale
