Would you live in a house with rotating rooms? Sharifi-ha House is a modular home in Tehran, Iran by Alireza Taghaboni. It was built in 2013 and has three wooden boxes which are rooms; the boxes can be rotated laterally. The resulting 90 degree rotation extends the living space and creates a large terrace. Given the technical difficulties involved in this project, this is a real marvel of #architecture and #engineering 📹 by GiGadgets #structuralengineering #house #Technology #project For more: 📌 Follow #ImpressiveEngineering 📌 Click on the 🔔

Roccia, a hospitality project in Monferrato, Italy, leverages digital technologies like LiDAR scanning for precise adaptive reuse. This project revitalizes the ruins of a historical monastery-turned-farmhouse by integrating a digitally fabricated timber skin, preserving the structure's antiquity and its natural overgrowth. The design harmoniously blends the natural and artificial, suggesting innovative renovation methods for historical buildings. The contemporary intervention includes prefabricated wooden elements within the old brick walls, forming a symbiotic relationship between the new and the ancient. Led by Maestro Technologies, Roccia embodies an approach that celebrates and enhances the site's historical decay.

#OCRIM AND #CREMONA - An intertwined history Since the years of its foundation, Ocrim has developed a #deep #bond with the #city of #Cremona. The main square itself, with Europe’s tallest masonry tower, the so-called #Torrazzo, provides a special #design #analogy with Ocrim’s #milling world. Definitely, a great example of what "learning from the past to design the future" means.

This is what climate friendly urban architecture looks like. Well done #Folkhem your Stockholm engineered timber builds are an impressive addition to a growing number of large timber builds across the globe that are replacing carbon emitting concrete & steel equivalents. You are also storing carbon. And the cedar cladding tiles spell out clearly ‘This is a timber build’.
