Entry Building to Sberbank
With the newly constructed building that encloses the exterior space between two existing high-rise towers the architects have created a representative entrance to the office towers that are part of Sberbank City, the new campus of the Russian bank. The hyperbolic paraboloid form delivers immense, daylight-flooded interiors, while minimizing sunlight obstruction to the offices in the towers. Both entrances are crowned in a series of triangulated panels, creating a strong design statement.

The interior concept is, therefore, dynamic and adaptable.

Flexhouse
Flexhouse is a single-family home on Lake Zurich in Switzerland. Built on a challenging triangular plot of land, squeezed between the railway line and the local access road, Flexhouse is the result of overcoming many architectural challenges: restrictive boundary distances and building volume, triangular shape of the plot, restrictions regarding local vernacular. The resulting building with its wide walls of glass and a ribbon-like white façade is so light and mobile in appearance that it resembles a futuristic vessel that has sailed in from the lake and found itself a natural place to dock.

Sberbank
The complexity of this project was to design an agile workplace of enormous size within a very limited time frame and to keep the physical and emotional needs of office users always at the heart of the design. With the new office design, Sberbank has set the first steps towards modernising their workplace concept. The new office design enables staff to perform their tasks in the most suitable work environment and establishes a brand new architectural identity for the leading financial institution in Russia and Eastern Europe.

Chapel on the Hill
After standing derelict for more than 40 years, a dilapidated Methodist chapel in the north of England has been transformed into a self-catering holiday home for 7 people. The architects have retained the original characteristics – the tall Gothic windows and the main congregation hall – turning the chapel into a harmonious and comfortable space flooded with daylight. This 19th century building is located in a rural English countryside offering panoramic views to the rolling hills and the beautiful countryside.

Neumatt
Neumatt is not one of the many standard sports centers in Switzerland. Inside, it is a true color burst of green, yellow, red and blue. These rainbow-like colors not only help children to navigate around, but it’s also more playful and taps into the way children see the world. By designing a bright sports hall flooded with daylight, the architects wanted to encourage people to spend more time doing sports and truly enjoy being there. Outside, the facade has been designed to blend in, with an upper glazed level that reflects the sky and changes the color depending on the time of day.
