UUAS - Architecture

Beautiful Moscow, Russia. @unityarch

🏢 Nuevo Proyecto | Ice Block Building This elegant tertiary-use project features a seamless continuous façade with soft rounded edges that perfectly integrate a curtain wall system. Special screen-printed glass creates a striking effect: From the outside, the building appears as a smooth, almost solid block of ice. From the inside, it offers crystal-clear views of the surroundings. The design smartly controls sightlines while delivering a powerful glowing expression at night. A beautiful balance of privacy, transparency, and modern elegance! ❄️✨ #Architecture #FacadeDesign #CurtainWall #ModernArchitecture #GlassFacade #ParametricDesign #TertiaryBuilding #ArchitecturalDetails #NightArchitecture #IceBuilding #ContemporaryDesign #EthiopianArchitects #UUAS #AfricanArchitecture #UnityUniversity #SeneHencha @unityarch

🏛️ The Invisible Weight of Being an Architect Since it’s Mental Health Awareness Month, it’s time we talk about the elephant in the studio. People see the final renders, the beautiful buildings, the creativity, the titles, the late nights in studios and offices. But very few people truly understand what architecture can do to a person mentally. Architecture is not just a job you leave at the office. It follows you home. It stays in your head during family dinners, during conversations with friends, even when you are trying to rest. Your body may leave the studio, but your mind often doesn’t. Many architects silently struggle with burnout, anxiety, loneliness, isolation, toxic work environments, unrealistic deadlines, and constant self-doubt. We are taught to normalize exhaustion. To romanticize sleepless nights and overworking. To believe that sacrificing our health and personal lives is simply “part of the profession.” And slowly, life outside work begins to disappear. You stop replying to messages. You cancel plans. You isolate yourself without realizing it. You tell yourself you’ll rest after the next deadline. Then another deadline comes. At some point, you begin questioning yourself: “Am I even good enough for this profession?” But the truth is, struggling does not make you weak. It makes you human. It is okay to pause. It is okay to step away from the screen. It is okay to choose sleep, family, friends, exercise, peace, and your mental health. And it is okay to work on yourself before work. A healthy architect creates better spaces, better ideas, and ultimately a better life. We need to normalize conversations about mental health in architecture — not as a weakness, but as something necessary. Check on your friends in the profession. Support each other. Rest when you need to. Set boundaries when you must. Because before being architects, we are human beings first. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 @unityarch

🏛️ Urban Renewal of Chengdu | Pengzhou Longxing Temple Area by BIAD-ASA Studio Located in the heart of Pengzhou’s old town, this project breathes new life into a historic area centered around the 1,000-year-old Longxing Temple and its charming old streets filled with teahouses and restaurants. Despite its rich cultural identity, the area had become dilapidated — with aging 1970s-80s buildings and closed factories. Since 2019, the city has been transforming it into a vibrant new urban center featuring commerce, culture, hotels, and residences. The design smartly balances development costs and long-term operations while blending old heritage with modern functions through “Functional segmentation and dynamic integration.” A beautiful example of respectful urban renewal! 🇨🇳✨ @unityarch

🌊 THEIA: Living Inside a Mediterranean Shell! Delivered in Montpellier by Vincent Callebaut Architectures for Bouygues Immobilier, THEIA is a stunning bioclimatic residence shaped like flowing seashells. Its organic, parametric facades — inspired by Art Nouveau and the Mediterranean climate — filter sun, capture sea breezes, and create a natural microclimate. Deep loggias, lush greenery, and a verdant inner courtyard make it feel like a breathable, living sculpture. Affordable, sustainable, and deeply connected to nature — this is future housing done right. A true manifesto of climate-responsive design! ✨ #SustainableArchitecture #BioclimaticDesign #VincentCallebaut #Montpellier #EcoArchitecture #FutureLiving #GreenBuilding #ArtNouveau2_0 @unityarch

🌊 A fluid cultural landmark that blurs the line between architecture, movement, and public life. This cultural and convention center uses layered forms, continuous curves, and dynamic circulation to create a seamless connection between indoor spaces and the city. Exhibition halls, offices, rooftop terraces, and public plazas come together as one active civic hub — inviting people to gather, move, and engage from morning till night. The sculpted envelope responds beautifully to light, scale, and flow, turning the building into a living part of the urban fabric rather than a static object. #Architecture #CulturalCenter #ConventionCenter #UrbanDesign #FluidArchitecture @unityarch

Hi everyone, If you’re tired of scrolling through dozens of sites to keep up with architecture: @a_d_u_media - a daily briefing covering key projects and developments across architecture, design and urbanism. Short, clear summaries that help you stay up to date without wasting time. Example of a recent project above 👆

🌟 Bahá’í Temple of South America in Santiago, Chile – A luminous beacon of unity and light! 🕌✨ Designed by Hariri Pontarini Architects, this contemporary temple rises gracefully from the foothills of the Andes. Nine delicately interwoven glass veils form the structure, softly filtering daylight into a serene, glowing interior. The result is a space that feels both monumental and deeply intimate — a perfect expression of openness, contemplation, and spiritual harmony. More than a place of worship, it stands as a cultural landmark beautifully integrated into Santiago’s landscape. #Architecture #BahaiTemple #HaririPontarini #SantiagoChile #SacredArchitecture @unityarch

So y’all actually reading the telegraphs👏🏽👏🏽😂🙏
