Architecture + Design - February 2024

この号では

In this Issue, we shift our focus to integrated cities, real estate and infrastructure projects. Any built structure leaves an impact on the identity of the city. However, larger projects define the design identity of the city. We take you to some of the most interesting projects around the world. Envisioned by the Bjarke Ingels Group, the master plan of Mindfulness City, Gelephu, Bhutan, integrates Bhutan’s culture, the Gross National Happiness Index (GNH) principles, and the country’s spiritual heritage. Yet another interesting project is the Jiaxing Train Station by MAD Architects in Shanghai. The project replaces a dysfunctional train station. The project breaks away from the common pursuit of grandiose monumental buildings and makes them urban public spaces with transport functions, natural ecology and cultural life. We are also featuring Arunyam by Rahul Kari, a second home project that serves as a blueprint for sustainable architecture.
