Catalyst Parking Garage \ inbo

Posted: 24 Feb 2012 07:51 PM PST

The recently built Catalyst parking garage, designed by Inbo, is trending within an ambitious international development at Science Park TU/e. The continuous façade of framed stretched metal elements enables natural ventilation of the garage. Influenced by the ever changing daylight, the representation of the semi-transparent skin provides the building with a welcome dynamic expression.

The master plan focuses on the sustainable amplification of the innovation-driven knowledge ecosystem in Eindhoven.

According to the original ideas of Van Embden, creator of the TU/e Science Park, the development strives for a collective identity in landscape, public space and architecture. Within this urban context cars are considered only to be guest. High-quality parking facilities will provide space for landscape development and form an integral part of the sustainable and innovative architectural ambitions.

The Catalyst parking garage is a trendsetter. Within the delicate scenery of nearly a century old oak trees it accommodates over 150 cars within a strictly composed volume. The continuous façade of framed stretched metal elements enables natural ventilation of the garage. Influenced by the ever changing daylight, the representation of the semi-transparent skin provides the building with a welcome dynamic expression.

Emotional Architecture in Casa Gavión, Following the Path set by Luis Barragán

I believe in an emotional architecture.
Luis Barragán

Barragán reinvented Mexican modern architecture with sensuous aesthetics, vivid colors, attention to spaces and light, while accentuating the building's natural surroundings. Casa Gavión by architectural studio ColectivoMX tries to evoke that emotional architecture. The use of massive proportions, volumes, forms, textures and colors aims to move feelings and emotions.

In an awarded architectural studio ColectivoMX, well known for their regionalism in home design, they had four principles in mind during the creation of this impressive nature conscious home, located in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California Sur, Mexico:

Passive sustainability: by using regional materials and local labor force during the construction.
Sensibility of the materials: by using different textures and reinterpreting their usage.
Integration of the indoor and outdoor spaces: maximizing the usage of the space
Low maintenance costs.

The concept of the home is based on its residents and the enjoyment of all the spaces, where exterior becomes equally important as interior, complimenting the great weather of

Baja California Sur with 350 sunny days per year. All the spaces in Casa Gavión are looking to the exterior, with each room having its own garden or terrace.

The dining and living room integrate directly to the open areas (large terrace and patio with the pool and lounge area). The bedroom on the ground level looks to a patio dominated by a magnificent cardon cactus which existed in the original site. Both master bedrooms on the 1st floor have their own terrace, and on the 2nd floor there is a large terrace with 360 C views of the Sea of Cortez, adjacent golf courses and the majestic mountains, ideal for sipping wine at sunset and star gazing.

The house organizes around a "breathing wall" made out of gabion boxes; an element normally found along the highway between San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. ColectivoMX took this element and changed its use and nature, making it a key element of the project's material palette. Gabion has excellent isolation features to protect the spaces from the sun while at the same time it functions as blinds, letting the air through the wall and cooling the area, allowing the house to "breath in and out".

Taking advantage of the local weather pocket doors and windows were designed for the house in order to make this boundaries disappear, and at some point, feel that the house is just part of the exterior, being able to enjoy the fresh breeze, the salty ocean smell and the birds singing.

Windows in Casa Gavión function as a security asset: you use your windows when you are not using your home. The orientation of the home, cross ventilation, pergolas and a rock wall ensure isolation within the home and eliminate the need to use the air-conditioning.

Baja's eternal summer was one of the inspirations for different textures implemented in this home: rock wall, pebble stones, gypsum, stucco, rustic plaster, fine plaster, fine grass, beach sand, water and wood – the materials that can be enjoyed walking barefoot in and around the house. The idea of walking around barefoot with hands stretched out, touching and feeling everything that surrounds you was an idea that excited the architects.

The house has been designed to save energy and be environmentally friendly. The roof is isolated with high density foam, thus reducing the need for AC. Solar energy systems, grey water usage system, and an ingenious pool design which integrates dipping pool, swimming pool and jacuzzi reduces the water consumption generally used in homes with pools, are some of the environmental friendly features of the house.

Let’s take a look at how Evermotion forum’s skilled visualization specialists have rendered out their takes on reading nooks, or on this grand scale, calling them as dedicated reading rooms may be more apt.

Soft neutrals are popular in these spaces rendered by Blalank Studio, but striking slate gray, and bright striped schemes offer bolder results that are rich with ambiance and character

Comfort is key when settling down with the latest best seller and a big mug of tea for a an hour or two, so you will find a comfortable chair in slick recliner style, or a cozy armchair, in each of these renders along with the obligatory standing lamp to ward off that eyestrain. There are varying ideas on the perfect lighting solution, with arc lamps, industrial cans, and more standard lamps all earning their place. Following space is designed by XM Studio.

There is emphasis here on stacking the book shelving to the rafters, and using librarian ladders to climb the stacks, though this is not recommended for anyone prone to vertigo or dizzy spells! A lower bookcase provides easy access for day-to-day reads and reference, and the top of the case acts as a display shelf for knick-knacks.
