A Swedish house with a stairway hidden behind a bookcase and an architect-revamped new build in the Netherlands feature in our latest lookbook of ten homes with colourful staircases that draw the eye.

The architects responded to the petite site by creating three distinct levels. Materials and form have been well considered to give the building strength, character and privacy, plus landscape spaces for the owners to cultivate. Opening to a small front garden, the ground floor section, which houses a private home office and guest rooms, forms a solid plinth for the upper levels.

Back in 2014, Amsterdam became the first city to have what is called a “night mayor.” The role of a night mayor is what the name suggests. They are intended to be the chief executive officer of a city’s nighttime economy. And so it was and it continues to be recognition that the night can be an important economic development tool. This seemed to work out well for Amsterdam, which is why many other cities quickly followed suit with their own night mayor elections.

Potholes are a common problem in asphalt parking lots. Generally, potholes can be a nuisance for drivers, but they can also cause serious damage to vehicles. When a car hits a pothole, it can cause the tire to rupture or the suspension to break. It is important to repair potholes as soon as they are detected. The best way to do this is to fill the hole with asphalt patching material and compact it with a tamper.

About Competition. Contemporary architecture has started to receive more accusations of emotional coldness, restrictive aesthetics, distanced from human and life (Pallasmaa, 2015).

My guess is that the corner tower used to be open, but now it has a drop ceiling covering it up. It also looks like it has beams that are strengthening the tower, likely for seismic measures. There are some small windows in the tower: But the largest one is at the back of the chapel.

Clients may not see sustainability as a priority out of fear of operational costs and quality. While these are legitimate concerns, it is our responsibility as architects to listen and foster a collaborative culture that answers client issues while also reducing our carbon footprint.
