From the architect. The site was a secret valley that had been subdivided off from a larger farm located about an hour north or Auckland.

I wanted to explore what a “Modern Farmhouse” could be using traditional New Zealand rural buildings as a formal reference for two of the three structures. One is a faithful copy of a shed typology, the other is an evolution of a hay-barn typology into a more complicated spatial experience. The third building is a tower standing as an sentinel for the valley and utilised as guest accommodation.

From the architect. John James Village, operated by the Leukaemia Foundation, provides respite accommodation free of charge for patients from regional areas who are undergoing treatment in Canberra for blood borne diseases, such as leukaemia. The village is designed to be a ‘home away from home’ for the patients and their families whilst they are in Canberra. The Leukaemia Foundation outgrew their previous facility, which was a single dwelling house shared by multiple patients.

Architects envision Trump’s America in the “Complicity and Defiance” charrette — winners announced!

The U.S.A. is barely 100 days into the Trump presidency, and a sure hell of a lot has happened in the last few months, huh? No doubt, the design community has reacted strongly to Trump's rambunctious power-mongering, including a revival of the debate on complicity and defiance in architecture.

In response, competition organizer Archistophanes/Reality Cues — who previously created the cheeky “Good Walls Make Good Neighbors, Mr. Trump” competition — launched the Complicity and Defiance in Architecture charrette, wherein entrants had to create “a provocative message of critique and/or defiance” towards any of Trump's authoritarian legislation measures. Here's a peek of the top three winners and a few honorable mentions: 1ST PLACE: Oil Border by Elisabeth Drumpf​ 2ND PLACE: ​Absurdity Redlined by SJ Kwon 3RD PLACE: ​Humane Security Corridor by Zachary Wilson HONORABLE MENTION: EcoPorn by Yoshihara Hisao HONORABLE MENTION: Trumpe L’œil by Sara Castillo HONORABLE MENTION: The Garden

Design Milk Travels To… Montréal

                                                <a href="http://design-milk.com/design-milk-guide-montreal/montreal-skyline-jul-09/" data-wpel-link="internal"><img src="http://1.design-milk.com/images/2016/08/Montreal_Skyline_-_Jul.09_3791024434-600x292.jpg" alt="Design Milk Travels To… Montréal" /></a>
                                Don’t be fooled. Despite its Old World architecture, cobblestone streets, and century-old facades, Montréal is a bustling hub of culture, design, art, food… the list goes on. Only a train ride away from New York City (and a gorgeous one at that), Montréal also happens to be the second largest French-speaking city in the world! Due to the intriguing juxtaposition of old and new world, Montréal has its own romantic charm that distinguishes it from Paris and any other city, at that. Get a glimpse of that certain je ne sais quoi that both residents and visitors alike describe when visiting this glittering metropolis.
