I want to bring to your attention an amazing architectural firm that is turning dreams into reality.
Lava stands for 'Laboratory for Visionary Architecture' . These are the guys behind the Watercube swimming centre in Beijing, which opened everyone's eyes around the world to new possibilities in construction and design.
With each project, the aim is to bring 'a new intensity to the artificial environments' they work in.
One of the most recent projects they've worked on is the Mercedes Benz Museum in Stuttgart. The combination of concrete and glass acts as a perfect backdrop for all of the amazing cars or show there. I love the curvature of the building and how the lighting reflects off all the different surfaces.
The Corniche Tower High-rise is a project currently still in contract stage...but it might just end up being my favourite. The building will be constructed in Abu Dhabi and has been designed to reflect the changes in weather during the day and night. Both the interior and exterior of this building will be installed with state of the art lighting as well as a glazed facade which will allow you to be in control of the climate conditions inside.
Another design that caught my attention is the Future Hotel Showcase in Duisburg, which is currently under construction. This building will give you an insight into the future of hotel spaces. With this project, they used a continuous wall system and minimal furniture and decor to maximize the client's hotel experience. Cutting edge technology will allow visitors to customize their rooms, providing a new quality of individual control.
It's going to be like staying with the Jetsons...how exciting!
