Krawitz Architecture projected this unique house with a second skin made with bamboo in Bessancourt, near Paris, France. The house is closed to the north to limit heat loss and opened to the south benefitting from free solar energy. Aesthetically, it is an abstract replica of a traditional house. The second skin of untreated bamboo, which becomes grey over time, drew inspiration from traditional barns in the part of the ile-de-france region where the house is situated. It passes in front of th
Eco studio is a house nestled in nature’s lap. Designed by Australian architecture studio Arkit, the house is a prefabricated modular dwelling.

That’s what it is! That’s what’s going on here. It’s a fantabulous audio system and it’s totally amazing and it’s totally big time. Big time I say! It’s the Vocia Red-1, Vocia DSP Servers, and Vocia WR-1. What you need for that next album from your favorite band… I dunno, what do you listen to.. let’s say SLAYER. You can slay all night long with this super combo from James Owen Design and Biamp. The Vocio RED-1 has the super-simple interface
© Nelson GarridoA year ago, we featured a set of Tim Harris’ early construction photos of Jean Nouvel’s Doha Office tower previously on AD, and now photographer Nelson Garrido has shared some new shots of the 45 story cylindrical structure. The building’s dia-grid gives much character to the project, as it not only provides structural support but also gives the volume a textured appearance from far away that turns into a more delicate patterning in closer range. The facade is
Wire hangers were really my first tool and resource to build all sorts of things when I was kid so it’s no surprise someone thought to turn a bunch of them into a chandelier called Light MI. You basically have a series of fixed hangers around a bulb. The shape becomes abstract but familiar in a whimsical way. Cool thing about this product? It’s real if you want it. Info a
90% Magnetic Scissors is an awesome tool for folks who go snip-snip all day. The scissor-head houses power-magnets in their internal seam, which uses the repel action to cut an easy snip. A good thing is that you can change the poles at the flick of a button, to keep the blades locked into place. Apparently 90% of the force used for cutting is sourced from the magnetic power, and 10% comes from your end. Easy cut-cut I say!Designers: Sang-in Lee & Yun-je Sung----------Yanko DesignTimeless Desig
BAAS Arquitectes projected this beautiful apartment in Barcelona using just two materials: larch wood and a white color scheme. Here is the project description: Redevelopment of a mezzanine in Barcelona. The height of surrounding buildings and leaf cover of neighbouring trees mean only a cool watery sunlight filters through, much the same as in northern Europe. Houses in these countries use wood and candles to achieve a warmer homely atmosphere. Wooden floor and ceilings. Like an ice cream wa
Inspired by the brass monkey used on ships to stack cannonballs is this flexible rubber mat called the Fridge Monkey. It’s designed with ridges to hold beverage bottles and cans into place, so that you can build a steady pyramid out of them. The clever little design works well with almost any bottled or canned drink. The only problem I foresee is that homes like mine don’t allow for bottles to be in the fridge for so long, they get consumed as soon as they are bought! So building bottles pyrami
