Favourite architects: Lauren loves the work of Alvaro Siza (his old stuff more so than his new stuff) for its materiality and monumentality.

These days we’re more likely to find ourselves watching Pixar than Polanski. Luckily, Ratatouille is a masterpiece on creativity and criticism.

Favourite architects: The Factory is an old cement factory converted by Ricardo Bofill into the studio of his practice, Taller de Arquitectura. It is a symphony of surreal magic: mighty concrete columns support nothing, sculptural stairs lead nowhere, hulking machines lie dormant. Sant Just Desvern 1973. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #homedesign #housedesign #modern […]

Favourite architects: Walden 7 by Ricardo Bofill is a continuation of his research into urban living, and holds valuable lessons forty years on: communal spaces, rooftop gardens, views out and in, a complex array of bridges and balconies. Each element is designed to enhance living conditions and provide opportunities for chance encounters. Sant Just Desvern […]

Favourite architects: Kafka’s Castle by Ricardo Bofill is an exercise in complex simplicity: despite covering 4,000sqm of area, it required only five sheets of drawings for construction, Barcelona 1968. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #homedesign #housedesign #modern #designs #designers #house #houses #apartment #apartments #interiordesign #interiordesigner #barcelona #spain #spanisharchitecture #visitbarcelona #architettura #architetto #ricardobofill #blackandwhite

Favourite architects: Melanie loves the work of Ricardo Bofill. Though it looks like it might have come from the pages of a Disney cartoon, Xanadu is a built experiment in housing, Alicante Spain 1971. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #homedesign #housedesign #modern #designs #designers #house #houses #apartment #apartments #interiordesign #interiordesigner #alicante #spain #spanisharchitecture #visitspain […]

Tom Kundig

Favourite architects: no review of Tom Kundig’s work is complete without a peek at his hotrod-inspired mechanical wizardry. Here the entire glass wall rotates up thanks to the flywheel to the right. There’s a neat video that shows a young girl with a broken leg spinning the wheel without effort, link in profile. Beautiful engineering. […]
