For those rarely inclined to visit a hotel spa, would you consider indulging in this? @we.are.noa has done it again. This draw-dropping wellness center was designed to accompany a cantilevered pool designed by the studio back in 2016, for the Dolomites' famed @hotel_hubertus. Dubbed Hub of Huts, this project explores the concept of upside down, the changing of perspectives, wonder. The wellness center is detached from the hotel’s main edifice, suspends 15 meters above ground and is supported by two pillars clad in larch logs. The experience starts at the very beginning: a passage along a suspended walkway to arrive at the wellness center. The structure has two levels, the lower level which appears anchored upside down, undergoing a dramatic 180° rotation.

@hanbury_design has completed the concept for the Virginia African American Cultural Center. Set to become a new cultural and historical landmark to the city, the center will celebrate the history and culture of African Americans. Located in a well-traveled corridor in Virginia Beach, the center will serve as a visible beacon apparent to all visitors and passerbyers. The building’s design addresses three programs - community, education and culture. Ensuring it is not only a physical space, but one that is dynamic and meaningful to visitors. The site will be completed in phases and once completed, will feature a series of performance venues, sports courts, galleries and educational spaces. . . . . . . . #architizer #architizerawards #juneteenth #emancipation #architecture #africanamerican #arfricanamericanhistory #museum #culturalcenter #community #communitycenter

This project took home not one, not two, but six Architizer A+Awards! 🏆 The Komera Leadership Center is located in a rural province of Rwanda and provides health, education and mentorship programs for young women. A community hub intentionally located across from the local football field, the site is formed by large eucalyptus screens inspired by the traditional “Imigongo” art of the region. The angular roof unites the administration, counselling, recreation and gathering spaces under one united structure. Meanwhile, large hinging panels are used to close off private spaces for learning.

Step inside the new Orange County Museum of Art. Designed with flexible and fluid programming, the site choreographs a diversity of initiatives — permanent collections, temporary exhibitions, education and recreation. The museum’s sculptural exterior travels inwards through a light-filled lobby atrium fit to accommodate various events and programs. The program is then extended outdoors, through a spacious roof terrace that encourages visitors to enjoy southern California’s climate. The outdoors can equally be enjoyed via the grand entrance staircase. Reminiscent of something like that of the Met steps, the stairs offer a gathering point for both passerby pedestrians and visitors.

@saundersarchitecture proposes a solution for the people and town of Fedje, Norway. An island threatened by a rapidly declining population, the Todd Saunders team has been working with the local community to create a destination that puts Fedje back on the map. This project rejects the traditional notion of a “hotel.” Embracing a broader identity, the space was conceived as an experience — the site comes complete with a distillery, accommodations and park. Fedje offers an unparalleled experience, a break from our frenzied lives, a change in pace and a lifestyle connected to the sea. A project that celebrates the beauty of this this charming fishing village. The Fedje Hotel is currently planned for construction.

“Let’s make a roof where we can see the sunset and the Grand Canal.” When the site for the Bache Community Center was first surveyed, these simple words became the driving force for the project. The Bache Community Center is located in Suzhou, China and is the first in a series of micro-renewals in the city. A strong dialogue between the interior landscape and exterior views were achieved through the planting of a ginkgo tree. Described as a simply emotional decision, the tree was planted in the interior courtyard. Visible from every level of the site, the plant creates an inward-looking landscape. Meanwhile, the beautifully programmed rooftop allows the community to appreciate Suzhou, China’s skyline.

Resembling the floating clouds that envelop China’s Longmen mountain range, this cultural center serves as the gateway to the National Giant Panda Forest Park. This stilted structure offers user experiences in the day and night. Completed with a state-of-the-art lighting system, the dome turns into a universe of stars in the evening. Patrons can also enjoy the floating gravels perched on the roof surrounded by water which serve as recreational spaces.

A spatial narrative unfolding on the basis of memory and social value. The Zhuji Historical Memorial Hall is located on narrow plot in the mountains of Zhuji, China. Primarily intended as a political memorial site, the site balances a program that serves history, memory and recreation. Visitors are welcomed to the site by a striking red stone aggregate wall and accompanying water curtain. Not only can the site be enjoyed for spiritual and memorial purposes, but it can equally be appreciated as a social and outdoor recreation center.
