What a beautiful glass structure…
Melbourne-based architectural practice Lyons digitally rendered this stunning façade, which belongs to the John Curtin School of Medical Research at Australian National University. The glazed panels express the research work of the school at various scales, including the scale of humankind, the molecule, and the codified representations of the DNA strand.
The project begins with the idea of a wooden deck. On this platform would incorporate the areas of the house. But the resources were exclusively aimed at this terrace, and the interior space was enough only for a large be incorporated therein. It was therefore decided to allocate almost all of these resources to resolve the housing based on two main components: a deck and a living area, the latter being capable of absorbing the kitchen, dining room and even the master bedroom.
Danish architectural practice Henning Larsen Architects has designed the IT University in Ørestaden, Denmark. The masterplan for the area is based on a north-south-going, linear structure. This basic structure is designed as three strips conveying three different urban themes. The strips are intersected by roads on the transverse axis from Amager Fælledvej. Connections between the buildings lie on the transverse axis perpendicular to the open, landscaped areas.
The building is developed along the southern and western boundaries of the parcel, which together with the elements of urbanization of the site, form a kind of atrium, whose diagonal flight to a distant vision of the Sierra Calderona.
