Hotham House / Austin Maynard Architects

Embedded within lush foliage on an established suburban street just off the National Circuit, with a direct view of the flag over Parliament House, Hotham seeks to slow down and consider Canberra's past, present, and future built environment. Working to demonstrate the importance of responding to, rather than erasing the cultural and architectural fabric of Australia's Capital city - a city which 'embodies the Australian spirit and symbolises Australian life and achievement.'

Anren Culture Center for Sect of Great Craftsman / Atelier Li Xinggang

MUWA NISEKO / Nikken Sekkei

This condominium hotel is located in a prime location directly connected to the Niseko Hirafu ski slopes in Hokkaido, Japan. The architecture expresses the characteristics of Niseko and its landscape dotted with small-scale buildings, and the gabled roofs characteristic of Hokkaido's and the greater region's traditional landscape context, while also incorporating the features of "condominium-style development," where each unit has its own owner. By expressing these elements as a collection of gabled roofs, the design achieves both economic efficiency and rationality while preserving the landscape of Niseko. The hotel offers a variety of unique experiences, including guest rooms that blend seamlessly with the landscape, a lobby that frames the natural beauty of Niseko, and an open-air bath with views of Mt. Yōtei. This is an architecture that can only be found in this location.

The challenge for Bric Arquitetura was to optimize every square meter with purpose — and elegance.
