🔤Long piece of architecture identical in scale to the vast landscape appears like a streak of wind passing over the lake.

Key to addressing the problem of the landscape in China is to view the architecture as a "gentle giant" of an environment, and search for a totally new relationship between natural and manmade. An entity emerges in which architecture standing in isolation sits comfortably in the natural environment, the two interacting.

One discovers a natural environment inside the building, and through its characteristics as a new outside that has sprung up within the building, forges an amiable connection with the surrounding nature. Thus a new relationship between nature and humans is born. #context@simoderna

Making this happen is the object of this project.

Architect #Behnisch
City #Hannover
Country #Germany #EU

🔤From the exterior it resembles the traditional city block, whilst at its center, protected from the noise of the heavily frequented streets, lies the heart of the complex, a large, public courtyard. A distinctive, seventy-meter-high #skyscraper rises from the courtyard, detaching itself through a series of twists and turns from the formal order of the lower, perimeter building. The expressive form of the tower refers neither to the styles of the immediate surroundings, nor to the orthogonal grid of the post-war city; instead it is a response to the historical downtown geometries in the north.

Country #Serbia #EU

🔤After the war, Yugoslavia was in dire need of rebuilding a country devastated by war. At play were the most cost-effective solutions that would address both the housing shortages and administrative needs. And exactly, it was the brutalist style that could fit such a vision perfectly.

Regarding this, Aleksandar Stjepanović, author of the Faculty of Philosophy, formed one interesting conclusion regarding the bonding of architecture for directions Brutalism and states that:

"Brutalism is not the result of the philosophy, but the consequences of possible conditions".

#quote@simoderna

The facility's curved concrete interior atrium alcoves are particularly distinctive. Despite this extensive use of cold concrete, its red brick walls, copper roofing, #red tile floors and rich wooden interior adornments give the structure a warm atmosphere.
