A rare situation in which a modern solution is actually suitable for the preservation of an ancient heritage - the uncovered cellars of the Șerban Vodă inn in Bucharest.
One of the largest and oldest in the country, this XVII century hotel was demolished in the late XIX century to make way for the new National Bank building. And while the optimal solution at the time would have been to build the bank elsewhere, when the foundations of the old inn were unearthed today, museumizing them was the best option to preserve their heritage, especially considering that the bank building turned out to be a masterpiece in its own right.

That's how we can transform cities... 🌱🌞
Cities face increased heatwaves, droughts, and heavy rain.
Our infrastructure can’t keep up and is under stress.
Amsterdam’s RESILIO project 🌍 is transforming 10,000 m² of rooftops into smart blue-green networks.
These roofs “drink” rain, store it, and release it when needed.
The result?
❄️ It cools the city.
🐝🌸 Boosts biodiversity .
🌿💧 During dry periods smart climate tech regulates flows and keeps water flow.
Cities can breath better.
Citizen = healthier.

The Weirdest Building in Paris
In January 1977, Parisians entered a building through glass tubes suspended on its outside. Its escalators, plumbing, and structural framework were placed on the exterior, leaving the interior completely open and flexible. This design reflected a cultural moment obsessed with transparency, democracy, and technology.
This video explores how architects Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers imagined a building that could empower citizens and celebrate culture by literally turning architecture inside out. But this radical approach came with significant trade-offs, from lost historical charm to maintenance headaches. Watch more to see Artists' opinions. ...
