Eric Baldwin — Thu, 18 Jun 2020 07:35:00 +0000

Romania's modern architecture merges global perspectives with local traditions. From pre-modern styles to post-revolution work that began in the early 90s, the country's built environment is incredibly diverse. From cities like Bucharest to Cluj-Napoca and Timișoara, modern projects are being designed between historic structures.

A House in the Countryside / Ene+Ene Arhitectura

Pilar Caballero — Mon, 05 Aug 2019 01:00:00 +0000

Situated 40 km North of Bucharest, in a peaceful rural setting, the house serves as a week-end and vacation retreat for a family living and working in the capital. It tries to make the most of its privileged location - a mildly sloping site at the very edge of Poienarii Rali village, with a beautiful view towards Ialomita river and a forest - by means of a sensitive placement and orientation.

The story of the house on Vasile Lascar St. is the story of many modernist houses in Bucharest: it has undergone numerous changes in ownership, usage and general configuration between 1946 when it was built, and 2014, when we were appointed to revitalize it.

Context

This project’s design theme was the consolidation and expansion of an existing house. The site for the project is located in Otopeni city, adjacent to Bucharest. It consists of a generous plot on which an old 100 sqm house was located. The house had a basement, ground floor, first floor and attic.

Karen Valenzuela — Mon, 30 Nov 2015 03:00:00 +0000

Context: The project could be considered as daring because of its site proportions, a long but very narrow strip of land (7.5 X 40 M) with a blind wall on one side.

Control Club - Berlin Hall / Lama Arhitectura

Daniel Sánchez — Fri, 27 Nov 2015 22:00:00 +0000

Located in the historical center of Bucharest, the 19^th century house that now hosts the Control Club used to be the famous Berlin restaurant, very popular in the socialist era. Control Club is likely considered, at the moment, the most popular live music club in Bucharest. The project aim for this club was to retrieve the former identity of the space (the Berlin restaurant), using the Berlin Wall as concept.

Origo Coffee Shop / Lama Arhitectura

Diego Hernández — Thu, 09 May 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Origo is the answer to the demand of a very passionate barista for a place for himself that should function as a coffee-shop during the day and a cocktail bar during the evenings. We like to think of it as his personal urban living in which we discovered some fantastic, authentic and old wooden beams after dismantling the existing plaster ceiling. We kept them and painted them white.
