House da Vila / Mariana Orsi Arquitetura + Design

Seeking to preserve the original elements of the residence, this retrofit allowed for a perfect dialogue between the contemporary proposal and the existing roots, both of the house and the village itself. We preserved the original structures and proposed demolitions for greater integration and brightness of the spaces.

GJ House/ Alventosa Morell Arquitectes

A young couple had the opportunity to build their first home on a plot that was once part of a larger family-owned property. Our design proposal is based on a modular plan that responds to the surroundings, ensuring privacy, excellent climate control, and dynamic living spaces.

Opportuna Residential Tower / Office Winhov + Office Haratori

As a residential tower that makes an architectural statement in the transformation of a district, Opportuna offers a contemporary solution to the growing demand for affordable starter homes without compromising quality of living or sophistication. By incorporating key architectural elements of the area, the tower is deeply rooted in the neighbourhood. Opportuna is a collaboration between Office Winhov and Office Haratori, commissioned by the housing association Lieven de Key.

Architecture as an Invitation to Explore: 25 Visitor Centers Around the World

Destinations like ecological reserves, national parks, and historic sites rank among the most visited places worldwide. Motivated by different desires — from aesthetic appreciation to a longing for connection with nature — visitors are drawn to locations marked by historical importance, scenic beauty, or architectural significance. In this context, it becomes essential for the institutions responsible for preserving and managing these sites to adopt thoughtful mediation strategies — both in terms of communication and spatial design. One such strategy is the creation of visitor centers: architectural structures that not only receive guests but also educate and guide them. These buildings act as interfaces between the site and its audience, translating the ecological, historical, and cultural values of the place into architectural form.
