Dockyard Hybrid Office Building / Tchoban Voss Architekten

Urban-Planning Situation - At the beginning of the 20th century, Berlin's Osthafen (East Harbour) was one of the largest industrial harbours in the city. Intended for transportation and storage of goods, a three-storey administration building with a canteen and storage buildings, and warehouses shaped the Spree embankment along Stralauer Allee between Oberbaumbrücke (Oberbaum Bridge) and Treptower Park. Today, the picture is completed by modern office and residential buildings. Media, fashion, and creative firms have discovered this exclusive area around the 'MediaSpree' for themselves. In the early 2000s, TCHOBAN VOSS Architekten set out a master plan for new construction and further development of the Osthafen area, incorporating the historical buildings.

Suzhou Snow Peak Cafe / KiKi ARCHi

Snow Peak Cafe is nestled within a two-story red brick building in MATRO Luxury Centre in Suzhou, adjacent to the northern edge of the Humble Administrator's Garden. Once 22 red-brick warehouses built in the 1950s, the site has been reimagined into the classical gardens of Suzhou, where architectural order meets the organic flow of nature — a quiet balance of industrial memory and natural ease. Responding to this unique urban fabric, the architect grounded the design in Snow Peak's core philosophy of "Embrace Your Nature," using spatial strategy and material articulation to interpret the essence of nature and freedom.

The Turahalli House / ShoulderTap

The Turahalli House, a residence for a family of three, is located in the quiet suburbs of southern Bangalore. This 30 feet by 40 feet plot is part of a planned neighbourhood by the government with proximity and views of the Turahalli forest. The relatively smaller size of the plot and a brief from the client for an airy and spacious home were contradictory, and hence part of the challenge for us.

Lucerna House / SAA Arquitectura + Territorio

The house, a primary residence, is located on a plot of land between the pampas grasslands and an ancient forest of ñires (Nothofagus antártica) on the outskirts of the city of Coyhaique, the capital of the Aysén region.
