Para los estudiantes de arquitectura que anden buscando arboles para sus renders, pueden probar esta web; hay como 400 arboles con fondo transparente ordenados por temporada y por especie. Muchas especies incluso pueden visualizarse en verano y en invierno. Recomendable. meye.dk

Story kind of lumbers along but this has some of the tightest visuals I've seen in a while. The high contrast between the interior spaces vs the landscape is something to experience.

@parametricarch A nod to Gehry?

@shavnyuy Beautiful. But no mosquito in their country?

Ecuador has a coastal city with the second best climate in the world. The architecture knows it. Casa Zancos sits in Villamil Playas, a former fishing port on the Pacific coast. Instead of sealing the house against the heat, Natura Futura opened it up. Raw timber poles. Fired brick walls. Louvred wooden shutters instead of glass windows. That last decision is the one worth studying. The chazas, traditional louvred panels regulate airflow and shade without mechanical intervention. No AC dependency. No glass trapping heat. The building breathes because the envelope was designed to breathe. The brick here isn’t decorative. It’s thermal mass working alongside natural ventilation, absorbing heat during the day, releasing it at night. Two materials. Zero imported climate logic. This is what it looks like when architects listen to a place instead of building over it. 📍Casa Zancos, Villamil Playas, Ecuador. Architects: Natura Futura. 📷 JAG Studio

@griffinpdavis This is really nice framing. Yours and @ryangrim’s backgrounds blend together nicely.

@dezeen Mangler of matchsticks?

Japanese architect Kengo Kuma is best known as a pioneer of wooden architecture, but his latest book, Substance, showcases his expertise in a broad range of materials. In this roundup, he picks six projects made from everything from paper to bamboo. dezeen.com/2026/04/29/ken…

Carlo Mollino (1905-1973), "Reale Table", 1948. Podemos hacer cosas bellísimas.

@vangeorgh @AdBaumann The process of documentation will be easier. There will still need to be some degree of talent, intention, and experience to design a good home.

@AdBaumann Parametric software like rhino and grasshopper would integrate it first (which would make them more user-friendly), then revit - to make massing easier. As time goes on, it’ll become increasingly easier to design a home

Architects, are we paying attention?👀

@the_transit_guy @MayorBMScott They're all grey now.🤔

While we've seen great transformation in Detroit, I'd like to point out that the number of vacant homes in Baltimore has decreased by 25% in the five years of Mayor Scott's tenure. Never bet against America's cities.

@iAModp Herzog recently gave a talk at the GSD. It was kind of informal so maybe he said too much. youtu.be/A8D5hxZ-v3E?si…

um tipo olha para estas imagens a passar e tira o quê daqui? saudades de quando a arquitectura era um oficio movido por um corpo de "ideias", por uma teoria, não por um saltitar entre e-feitos

@wyattreed13 Almost like she's some kind of hostage or something...

“I strongly condemn political violence against the man who kidnapped my predecessor and slaughtered all his bodyguards execution-style”

@HabeebOmosidi The quality of those blocks are amazing! The ones I usually see back home leave much to be desired.

Artisans that require minimum supervision >>>>>

Nerve racking last minutes. Go Gunners!!!!!

@DavidHundeyin @YousraElbagir On her third report and still doesn't mention WHY Mali and the rest chose to cut ties with its former colonizers. No discussion. Just keeps saying they are undemocratic juntas who are unable to fight terrorists.

@YousraElbagir You should have joined the convoy Yousra. After all both you and the terrorists work for the same boss. You're their sister.

Terrifying news out of Mali

@SkyNews @YousraElbagir

Gunfire and helicopters were heard outside Mali's capital, Bamako, near Kati military base and the international airport.⁠ ⁠ Terrorists have carried out attacks in various locations across Mali, according to the country's army.⁠ ⁠ Sky's @YousraElbagir has the latest

@shavnyuy Really nice that you find all these brilliant architects working in the Global South.

Could this be brick brutalism? Brutalism means nothing hidden. Every material exposed. No apology for what it is. If that’s the definition, then yes. We just found one. Wall House. Auroville, Tamil Nadu, India. Architect: Anupama Kundoo. Built 2000. Her own home. The bricks are achakal, a pre-industrial Tamil Nadu brick 18cm x 10cm x just 2.5cm thick. Hand-shaped, fired in clay ovens from leftover farmland silt. They require far less energy to produce than factory bricks. Set in lime mortar with raked joints. The ceiling you see in image 2 is not a design gesture. Those are terracotta pots embedded upside-down into the concrete slab, increasing structural depth while replacing steel and reducing the volume of concrete needed. The vault is catenary brick. The double height volume pulls natural ventilation upward through the house by stack effect. This is not a building that looks sustainable. It is a building that proves every material choice through engineering. Anupama Kundoo recreated this house at 1:1 scale for the Venice Architecture Biennale 2012. Indian craftsmen who had never left their country flew to Venice to build it by hand. Architect: Anupama Kundoo | Auroville, India | 2000 | Photo: Alka Hingorani & Javier Callejas

lol.

@brianonhere Do people really listen to 3 whole hours of stuff like this?

brace belden's no saint but calling him the worst is a little bit of a stretch
