External basement staircases, originally conceived as part of the bespoke fire strategy, were omitted and lobbies introduced at ground floor along with glazed screens to the living spaces.The original courtyard glazing, designed as a matrix of smaller composite framed window panels, were replaced with a structural glazed curtain walling system allowing unobtrusive floor to ceiling glass complimented with full height sliding doors with glazed balustrades; the opening up of the courtyard allowing one owner to install a green wall with water feature.Larger glazed panels were introduced to the rear gardens along with bi-parting sliding doors.

We trust you, our readers, to select the buildings that - due to their beauty, intelligence, creativity, or service to the community - represent the best architecture of the year. A similar approach was taken to the design of the oriel windows with the opening sash relocated to the side panels to create a single sheet of glazing creating the ‘gold fish bowl’ effect.Brick detailing was critical to the final appearance of the building this included integrating the differing window reveal depths.

They play with light, returning subtle shades depending on the orientation; the attics of these latter buildings, ‘houses on the roof’ are also built in wooden frame clad with Douglas cladding.The buildings are wrapped in continuous balconies, with white lacquered metal railings.

The brick balconies were altered during the original planning process due to the planners concern about the bulk of full brick balustrades facing the road therefore the front balustrades were revised to steel railings.The high quality finish of the building was due to the contractor’s ability to offer a bespoke service to the residents allowing them to vary the internal finishes including the cabinets, tiling and sanitary wear.
Collective housing built in the residential section of the center of Tokyo. The winter gardens are of the "greenhouses" type, composed of glass elements and light frameworks, echoing the surrounding market garden landscape.This treatment of the facades thus offers an alternation of materials and provides a chromatic palette and textures, generating a coherent variety of material from public space and the surrounding walking paths.You'll now receive updates based on what you follow! After that, retreat to your own cosy, fully furnished space and put your feet up. The surroundings of the buildings become spaces for crossing, meeting between locals and visitors.The establishment of the 6 constructions with specific characteristics (thickness, parking management, orientation, relationship to the surrounding building, treatment of the immediate surroundings ...) and an ambitious objective in terms of density, our bias was as follows; respect the principles of alignment and continuity built in the ground floor, while offering a rhythmic sequence of varied templates, from second floor on the Park side to third floor + penthouse on the Place de la Jaguère side.This subtle variation of sizes is accompanied by a volumetric composition alternating linear volumes with more compact volumes, so as to "hybridize" the programs without there being an immediate perception between, free accession, affordable, or social housing.The porosity proposed by these rhythmic sequences of templates and alternating volumes, are intended on the Place de la Jaguère, to mark the crossings of the islet, from East to West.
