Arvo Pärt Sound Cloud by Coop Himmelb(l)au The Sound Cloud takes reference from Arvo Pärt’s music as well as the dense pine forest. Its shape is derived from the song “Spiegel im Spiegel”, consolidating the main sequence spectrogram of the song into the curves of a roof. This cloud of sound forms an introverted space within where the music is played and listened to and a space underneath that becomes the work and meeting place for the people interested in the legacy of the composer. The cloud only touches the ground where it is thickened to house the performance space, and otherwise hovers between the trees, like the tree house of the observation platform, suspended in the natural environment of the forest. The complex rooms of the program are organized in their functional groups and combined into a box building that is placed underneath the roof.

ABEER SEIKALY Human life throughout history has developed in alternating waves of migration and settlement. The movement of people across the earth led to the discovery of new territories as well as the creation of new communities among strangers forming towns, cities, and nations. Navigating this duality between exploration and settlement, movement and stillness is a fundamental essence of what it means to be human. In the aftermath of global wars and natural disasters, the world has witnessed the displacement of millions of people across continents. Design is supposed to give form to a gap in people’s needs.
Amazing 3D Printed Mobile Home Created by 3M futureLAB We have been hearing a lot lately about 3D printing homes. In fact a Chinese company claims they will begin printing out hundreds of concrete homes within the nxt year or two, and researchers in Amsterdam are working on a 3D printed plastic canal house. That's not all though.Peter Ebner, and students at the 3M futureLAB have created a tiny mobile home, which they say could be used by the 25-35 age group. The homes, are almost entirely 3D printed, down to the electricity, heating, water, and sewage systems, as well as the thermal insulation.The Body of the home is printed out of a sand and glue mixture. The size of these homes are a claustrophobic 50 square feet, but the designers claim that these are more than big enough to support one individual.

Modular Cliff House Hangs Perilously Over a Cliff's Edge in Australia | Inhabitat - Sustainable Design Innovation, Eco Architecture, Green Building Australian prefab architecture specialists Modscape Concept have designed an exciting five story home that clings to a cliff’s edge. Aptly called Cliff House, the design was created in response to a growing number of clients exploring design options for living on extreme coastal plots in Australia. The modular home was inspired by the shape of barnacles clinging to a hull of a ship, and it extends off the side of a cliff, rather than sitting upon it. Rather than being a disruption built along the skyline, Cliff House almost propels off of it, acting as an extension to the natural topography. The unique positioning also gives the home’s residents an incredible connection to the ocean below, while alleviating construction problems associated with building on uneven rock.
