Location: Near Tokyo, Japan

The site is a rocky stretch facing the Pacific Ocean with approaches sloping down to the water level. The characteristic of its plan, imagined like the branches of a tree, is a continuous one room. All the required spaces, entrance, living area, dining area, kitchen, bed room, Japanese style room, study room and bath room are arranged in this continuous one room.

ORDOS 100 #12
Designer: RSVP
Location: Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China
We separated the ludic programmatic components and buried them inside the landscape, objectifying the private wing as a floating element. Finally we proceeded to rotate the upper bar to allow both the main living area and master suite a generous southern orientation. This spatial and formal maneuver generated an open courtyard that connects both the underground and the hovering components of the Villa Long.

DasParkHotel
Designer: Andreas Strauss
Location: Otteneheim, Germany

While the idea of sleeping in a pipe might not immediately connote luxury in your mind, this hotel design turns concrete pipes into quite the comfortable space for your next overnight stay. Almost like glorified camping, the DasParkHotel is a series of individual hotel room pipes, set on a beautiful flora-filled backdrop just steps from the Danube River.
