*️⃣Al Sa'ad Plaza Towers Architect #Foster #NormanFoster City #Lusail Country #Qatar #ME 🔤The elliptical footprints of the towers morph through 90-degrees as they rise up, gently shifting the viewing axis outward and offering stunning views of the surrounding city and waterfront. The tower façades – clad in marine-grade #aluminium – are designed in response to the sun with projecting profiles that wrap around the building, shading the glazing from the harsh sun. The plaza contains a new metro station with pedestrian links to the towers above and access to several event spaces that draw life to the waterfront, and it was one of the key venues for World Cup of 2022. 🔤 Colour #grey Function #office Feature #skyscraper Address: CG84+Q4 Lusail, Qatar ©️ pics by #Sarab and architects (5th) text by architects Curve App – your smart engineering network

2	+4 *️⃣Watercube – National Swimming Centre Architect #PTW City #Beijing Country #China #AP 🔤The Water Cube's design was initiated by a team effort: the Chinese partners felt a square was more symbolic to Chinese culture and its relationship to the Bird's Nest stadium while the Sydney-based partners came up with the idea of covering the 'cube' with bubbles, symbolizing water. Contextually, the Cube symbolizes Earth, while the circle (represented by the elliptic stadium) represents heaven, a common motif in ancient Chinese art. Comprising a steel space frame, it is the largest ETFE-clad structure in the world with over 100,000 m2 of ETFE pillows that are only 0.2 mm in total thickness. #record@simoderna In July 2003 the Water Cube design was chosen from 10 proposals in an international architectural competition for the aquatic center project. 🔤 Colour #white #blue Material #polymer Function #entertainment #sport Feature #nightlight Address: 11 Tianchen E Rd, Chaoyang, China, 100107 Google street Night google street Interior google street ©️ pics by pinterest and architects text by Wikipedia	95

Portman, Jr. with construction completed in 1985, and because of its bulging base, it is often referred to as the "Pregnant Building". #retro@simoderna One of the defining features of the Marriott Marquis is its large atrium. It was the largest in the world upon its completion in 1985, at 143 m high. The atrium spans the entire height of the building and consists of two vertical chambers divided by elevator shafts and bridges.

5	+4 ️⃣Aqua Tower Architect #Gang #StudioGang City #Chicago Country #USA #NA 🔤Borrowing from the terrestrial topography, the tower was imagined as a vertical landscape made up of hills, valleys, and pools. “Gang turned the facade into an undulating landscape of bending, flowing concrete, as if the wind were blowing ripples across the surface of the building. You know this tower is huge and solid, but it feels malleable, its exterior pulsing with a gentle rhythm.” Quote by Paul Goldberger for the New Yorker. Strategically sculpting the shape of each floor slab offers comfortable outdoor terraces, where neighbors can casually and comfortably interact when desired, as well as views to Chicago landmarks. 🔤 Colour #white Material #concrete Function #residential #hospitality #hotel Feature #skyscraper Address: 221 N Columbus Dr, Chicago, IL 60601, United States ©️ pics by Steve Hall and Hedrich Blessing text by architects ❤️Boost simoderna for free	179
6	+4 *️⃣Markthal Rotterdam Architect #MVRDV City #Rotterdam Country #Netherlands #EU 🔤The municipality wanted to extend the existing open air market with a covered addition. According to stricter European rules in the future the open air sale of fresh and chilled food would not be permitted anymore. Next to this the municipality wanted to augment the amount of inhabitants in the city centre in order to create more capacity for the services in the area. Provast and MVRDV had seen in the South of Europe that these kind of market halls are often dark, introverted buildings with little connection to the surrounding urban area. The building needed to be as open as possible to attract the public and at the same time it had to be closed off due to weather conditions. The exterior of the Markthal is executed in grey natural stone, the same as on the pavements, to put the emphasis onto the interior. A colourful mural by artists Arno Coenen and Iris Roskam lines the one-hectare surface beneath the arch. Printed onto perforated aluminium panels, it displays images of flowers and insects derived from 17th century Dutch paintings. 🔤 Colour #mixed Material #aluminium Function #mixeduse #retail #mall #residential Feature #interior #adminvisited Address: Dominee Jan Scharpstraat 298, 3011 GZ Rotterdam, Netherlands Google street Google street 2 Google earth #360architecture Website ©️ pics by #HuftonCrow, #Ossip, #Scagliola #Brakke and Markthal text by Archdaily and Dezeen	175
7	+4 *️⃣Tiffany & Co Ginza Flagship Store Architect #ASCo #Aoki #JunAoki #Shinagawa City #Tokyo Country #Japan #AP 🔤For the renewal of the Tiffany flagship store in Ginza, Tokyo, architects sought to create a new ‘pillar of water’ in Ginza. The design is inspired by the transparency, fluidity, and ever-changing appearance of water. "We were very conscious that the design could easily become too rigid and imposing. So, early on, our core vision was a 'facade like a wisteria trellis swaying in the soft wind'," Aoki told Dezeen. "To make sure it didn't look too heavy, we needed a subtle 'shimmer' that would both fit in and stand out," he said. "The three-dimensional #curvedglass panels, which account for 25 per cent of the total surface area, present a significant challenge: not only does each panel have a unique curved shape, but the angle of the supporting marionettes also varies at each support point," explained the architect. These glass panels curve around and above the store's ground level to reveal a glazed front. Here, a signed entrance at the street corner guides visitors into the space. 🔤 Colour #blue Material #glass Function #retail #shop Feature #skyscraper Address: Tiffany & Co.

8	+4 ️⃣Guwahati International Airport, Terminal 2 Architect #NUDES City #Guwahati Country #India #AP 🔤This concept for Guwahati International Airport draws inspiration from Assam’s lush landscapes and the biodiversity that thrives in the Brahmaputra valley such as bamboo and the foxtail orchid (kopou phool). Lead architect, Nuru Karim’s approach marries ecological sensitivity with cultural symbolism, using engineered bamboo, passive cooling, natural lighting, and green walls to craft a terminal that is a transit hub and a sustainable landmark. A planted “Sky Forest” and generous daylighting soften long walks and reduce stress. By embedding the essence of Assam and the North-East into the airport's architecture, this project celebrates and honours the region's distinctiveness. 🔤 Colour #bronzen Material #steel Function #transportation #airport Feature #interior Address: Borjhar, Mirzapur, Assam 781015, India ©️ pics by abp live news and x.com/GuwahatiAirport text by architects and parametric-architecture.com 🌐Buy the map to find all the locations at simoderna google map	190

They create a straightforward and simple ascending space, a spiral tower that allows visitors to explore the agricultural landscape, while they go up its inside. The white PTEE film #polymer and the tensioned #steel mesh are the materials of the tower. Between the penetration and the impermeability, they present a spiral of 810 degree. 🔤 Colour #white Function #public #observation Address: 22.788, 113.9564 ©️ pics by #Schran text by Metalocus 🕯Statistics of notable architecture at #analytics@simoderna	190
10	+4 *️⃣Absolute towers Architect #MAD City #Mississauga close to #Toronto Country #Canada #NA 🔤The Absolute Towers do not conform to the standard linear and mechanical approach of our modern cities. They are something softer, organic and livable. Each floor features continuous balconies, eliminating the vertical boundaries that are typical of this architectural typology. The aim was to provide 360 degree views for each residential unit, opening them up to the surrounding scenery, reawakening city dwellers’ appreciation for nature. The twisting compositions of the towers are reminiscent of feminine curves, representing something more sculptural and human, as opposed to geometric and commercial. The towers are intended to introduce a natural and humanistic element into an urban fabric otherwise characterized by repetitive boxy buildings. A response to the context of Mississauga. 🔤 Function #residential Feature #skyscraper Address: 50 Absolute Ave, Mississauga, ON L4Z 0A8, Canada ©️ pics by #IwanBaan text by architects and Archdaily ☁️hashtag of the day #skyscraper@simoderna	174
11	+4 *️⃣Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz Architect #Dudler #MaxDudler City #Leipzig Country #Germany #EU 🔤 In the platform hall, which references Leipzig’s Mädler Passage, the defining feature is the cladding deployed on the walls and ceiling, which is made of backlit prefabricated glass brick components. Extreme repetition of one and the same motif makes its actual dimensions almost intangible for passengers. The light-coloured, jointless terrazzo flooring of the insular platform acts as a quiet counterpoint to the seemingly endless pattern of the walls. All necessary station furniture is arranged on the platform in the shape of geometrical concrete sculptures, all functions such as seating, timetables and ticket machines having in a sense been subtracted from or carved out of the concrete cubes. The staircases and their inner casings are made entirely of fair-faced concrete. The minimalist, almost coarse design conveys an impression of descending towards the interior of the earth, as if it was tunneled directly into the rock. 🔤 Material #rawconcrete #glassbrick Function #transportation #metro Feature #interior Address: 89MG+W6 Leipzig, Germany Google street #BestGS@simoderna🔥 ©️ pics by #Mueller and Petr Šmídek text by architects and Archdaily	174
12	+4 *️⃣Crystal Houses Architect #MVRDV City #Amsterdam Country #Netherlands #EU 🔤 The entirely transparent façade of a high-end flagship store on Amsterdam’s upmarket shopping street uses glass bricks, glass windows frames and glass architraves in a way to evoke the vernacular of the area with the goal to maintain the character of the site. Crystal Houses began its existence with the request of Developer to design a flagship store combining both Dutch heritage and international architecture. The 620m2 of retail and 220m2 of housing unites the ambition of Amsterdam to have large distinctive flagship stores without compromising the historical ensemble. #context The near full-glass façade mimics the original design but is stretched vertically to comply with updated zoning laws and to allow for an increase in interior space. Glass bricks stretch up the façade of Crystal Houses, eventually dissolving into a traditional terracotta brick façade for the apartments (as stipulated in the City’s aesthetics rules), which appears to be floating above the shop floor. “We said to the client, ‘Let’s bring back what will be demolished but develop it further’” explains Winy Maas, architect and co-founder of MVRDV. #quote@simoderna The only exceptions to this rule are added features which ensure the security of the building, such as a concrete ram-raid defence plinth, hidden in a blend of reflective and translucent materials and built to withstand the force of a car crashing into the building. Project was selected by #Archdaily as the best building in commercial category in 2017. #award 🔤 Material #glassbrick #brick Function #retail #shop Address: Pieter Cornelisz Hooftstraat 94, 1071 CC Amsterdam, Netherlands Google street ©️ pics by architects text by architects and Archdaily 💛channel navigation	168
13	+4 ️⃣Messner Mountain Museum Corones Architect #Hadid #ZahaHadid #ZHA City #Bruneck Country #Italy #EU 🔤Zaha Hadid explains the concept of the design: “The idea is that visitors can descend within the mountain to explore its caverns and grottos, before emerging through the mountain wall on the other side, out onto the terrace overhanging the valley far below with spectacular, panoramic views.” #context@simoderna Messner, the first person to climb all 14 mountains around the world over 8,000 meters, and the first to climb Mount Everest without the aid of tanked oxygen. His vision for a museum detailed three very specific locations of where the museum should emerge from ground. Informed by the shards of rock and ice of the surrounding landscape, concrete canopies have been cast in-situ and rise from the ground to protect the museum’s entrance, viewing windows and terrace. Reflecting the colours of the limestone peaks of the surrounding Dolomites, the exterior panels are formed from a lighter shade of #GFRC and fold within the museum to meet the darker interior panels that have the colouration of anthracite found deep below the surface. 🔤 Material #rawconcrete Function #public #observation Address: PXP3+XV Mareo, Autonomous Province of Bolzano – South Tyrol, Italy ©️ pics by #albrechtvoss, inexhibit.com and #Huthmacher text by architects 🌐Find any building fast and easy with simoderna google map	171
14	+4 *️⃣The Barbican Estate Architect #Chamberlin #Powell and #Bon as #CPBA City #London Country #England #EU 🔤In December, 1940, at the height of the Second World War, an air raid by the Luftwaffe razed a 35-acre site in the heart of the City of London to the ground. The site was known as the Barbican (a Middle English word meaning fortification), so-called for the Roman wall which once stood in the area. As the area had become increasingly commercialized, the number of residents had plummeted from 100,000 in 1851 to just over 5,000 in 1951. A housing scheme put forward by Chamberlin, Powell and Bon in 1955 offered an opportunity to reverse the population decline by enticing new residents into this void in the City. In order to maximize rental income and make the scheme financially viable, the architects proposed a high-density development. The complex was designed as an urban microcosm, with residential blocks arranged around communal spaces – an approach inspired by the work of Le Corbusier.

15	+4 ️⃣Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm Centre Architect #Dudler #MaxDudler City #Berlin Country #Germany #EU 🔤The great reading room (the taller section of the building protects it from direct southern light) was arranged in receding levels. Through its size and its many-tiered, almost scenic design, the space effects a sense of the outdoors, which is further emphasized by the large plates of glass used in the “sky” glazing. An unob- structed view of the clouds nearly gives one the feeling of reading under the open sky. The discussion about whether one central reading room or several separate rooms should be built was resolved by deciding in favour of both. In terms of urban planning, architects bore in mind the fact that Berlin in a very flat city, tending more toward the horizontal than vertical, whose buildings are as a rule no more than 22 meters tall – with the exception of public buildings. In order to mark the significance of the library as a public place of collected knowledge and as an urban architectural emblem of the book, one part of the building was designed to cross the lines of the upper city limits reaching 38 meters high. In order to make full use of the thermal mass of the ceilings and to make the climate of the rooms as pleasant as possible, suspended ceilings were avoided. All building automation fixtures have been placed in the floor or in the concrete ceilings. The air circulation vents in the ceiling activate the thermal mass of the concrete. The bare ceilings are thereby cooled and, in turn, absorb the warmth of the rooms. #sustainability 🔤 Material #wood Function #public #library Feature #interior Address: Geschwister-Scholl-Straße 1-3, 10117 Berlin, Germany Google street Google earth ©️ pics by #Mueller text by Archdaily 🌐Planning a trip?

16	+4 *️⃣ESCA Playa Architect #Badie City #Marsa close to #Alexandria Country #Egypt #ME 🔤ESCA Playa is conceived as an architectural organism formed through coastal morphology, where wind, light, and tide become generative forces rather than external conditions. The project occupies a liminal zone between land and sea, positioned on the shoreline as a structure that does not sit on the landscape but grows out of it. #context@simoderna The envelope is cast as a monolithic, porous skin that responds to environmental pressure. It thickens where shade and structure are needed and opens where the coastline invites light and ventilation. Materiality such as mineral plasters and coral aggregates echo the logic of the surrounding coastline. Each surface carries a tactile connection to natural processes, reinforcing the idea that the structure is not a foreign object placed on the beach but an extension of the environment itself. 🔤 Colour #tan Material #coating@simoderna 🆕 Function #hospitality #restaurant Feature #interior Address: 2HQM+35M, Ghazal, Al Dabaa, Marsa Matrouh Governorate 5006306, Egypt ©️ pics by #NourElRefai text by Archdaily #️⃣Combining hashtag filters can help you make a personal travel itinerary fast and easy	208
17	+4 *️⃣Shanghai tower Architect #Gensler City #Shanghai Country #China #AP 🔤Gensler’s design team anticipated that three key strategies—the tower’s asymmetrical form, its tapering profile and its rounded corners—would allow the building to withstand the typhoon-force winds that are common in Shanghai. The double-skin façade was a direct response to our client’s demand for a tower that would blend public and private spaces. By creating a triangulated outer skin and a circular inner volume, we created a series of atria accessible to the public. (4th picture) Shanghai tower has the record for the highest observation deck in the world at 563 m. #record@simoderna Using wind tunnel tests conducted in a Canadian lab, Gensler and structural engineer Thornton Tomasetti refined the tower’s form, which reduced building wind loads by 24 percent. The result is a lighter structure that saved $58 million in costly materials. 🔤 Material #glass Function #mixeduse #office #hospitality #hotel Feature #skyscraper Address: 501 Yincheng Rd (M), Lujiazui, Pudong, Shanghai, China, 200120 ©️ pics by #ConnieZhou and architects text by Architizer, Archdaily and architects put 📍 reaction if you have visited the place	218

"The residences unfold as bioclimatic, shell-like envelopes shaped by the Mediterranean Sea, sun and wind." – Vincent Callebaut #context@simoderna These mineral laces, entirely composed of convex and concave curves, behave like finely bisequed moucharabiehs, where waves sculpt the shade and set the light in motion Located less than one kilometer from the historical center of Montpellier's Ecusson as the crow flies, it integrates seamlessly into the city's suburbs, engaging in dialogue with the refined, orderly neighboring heritage architectures, while asserting a resolutely organic language. 🔤 Colour #tan Material #stone (presumably) Function #residential Address: JV35+6W5 Montpellier, France ©️ pics by architects text by Archdaily hashtag of the day #France@simoderna	196
19	+4 *️⃣Kaktus Towers Architect #BIG #Ingels #BjarkeIngels City #Copenhagen Country #Denmark #EU 🔤Suspended on a green hilltop with sweeping views of Central Copenhagen, and the waterfront, the towers were designed aiming to defy the conventions of traditional architecture. Each level's twist is designed to offer panoramic viewpoints for every unit but also demonstrates a creative economic construction method that maximizes the scheme's net area. In fact, the two towers are connected by a floating public park that slopes towards the ground, adding an aesthetic element to the city scape. The public spaces are connected by terraces and a green roof. At the podium level, a business square offers a lively connection for walkers coming out of the adjacent Dybbølsbro rail station. 🔤 Colour #grey Material #steel Function #residential Feature #skyscraper Address: Dybbølsbro 1, 1577 København, Denmark ©️ pics by #DemasRusli text by Archdaily Vote ➕ or ➖ and help shape what stays on the @simoderna	188
20	+4 ️⃣Bosco Verticale Architect #Boeri #StefanoBoeri City #Milan Country #Italy #EU 🔤The porcelain stoneware finish of the facades incorporates the typical brown colour of bark, evoking the image of a pair of gigantic trees in which to live and which are rich in literary and symbolic implications. The contrast with a series of elements in white stoneware – the stringcourses of the balconies and some modules on the front of the windowsills – introduces a syncopated rhythm in the composition which breaks up and “dematerializes” the visual compactness of the architectural bodies and amplifies the presence of the plants even more. Unlike “mineral” facades in glass or stone, the plant-based shield does not reflect or magnify the sun’s rays but filters them thereby creating a welcoming internal microclimate without harmful effects on the environment. At the same time, the green curtain “regulates” humidity, produces oxygen and absorbs CO2. #greenery Project was selected by #CTBUH as the best skyscraper of the year 2014. #award 🔤 Colour #monochrome #black Material #ceramic Function #residential Feature #skyscraper Address: Via Gaetano de Castillia, 11, 20124 Milano MI, Italy Google street Close google street Night google street #BestGS@simoderna🔥 Google Earth ©️ pics by #Rosselli and simoderna followers text by architects ❗️Only finished buildings are published in @simoderna	188
