Desert Courtyard House / Wendell Burnette Architects

Daniel Sánchez — Sat, 15 Jun 2019 15:00:00 +0000

The site is a peninsula of granite outcroppings and towering Saguaro cacti surrounded on all sides by deep perennial desert washes except for a single spit of land affording access from an Ocotillo studded ridge above. The building site, further down a long private drive, levels out toward the west into an edge condition dominated by an expansive vista - layers and layers of distant mountain ranges - that in the evening seem to epitomize the drama of the Arizona Sunset. Due to the elevation of the site beneath the community’s gaze and the entry gate at the road it became important to us - to recede the house as a deep shadow - into the depth and complexity of the desert floor below.

K:fem department store / Wingardh

Fifty years after the opening of Vällingby, Sweden's world famous New Town from 1954, works began with its resurrection. After the glorious days when children and their mothers filled the community in the outskirts of Stockholm with life, other developments gradually drained the neighbourhood unit. Less people made life difficult for the little cinema, as well as for the shops. Vällingby was in need of new blood, and the pièce de résistance of the renewal would be a new department store.

This project is part of a masterplan that looks to develop a reclaimed area of the Tromsø strait. It's amazing what is being done in Europe in terms of new dwellings. The construction of the rest of the masterplan is currently in progress.
