Puerta of Dreams

Inside, Puerta América is a hotchpotch, but the problem is lessened by using the arch-minimalist John Pawson to design the communal areas, creating a passive backdrop to the chaos of themes that inhabit the rooms on different floors. A few architecture critics have claimed that some of the more famous contributors have merely placed their signature style within a hotel context. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

When a Tree House No Longer Says ‘House’, Are We Virtually There?

In the spring of 2013, Akira Suzuki , the Japanese architectural critic, editor and Professor of Architecture at Musashino Art University, issued an invitation to three architects to design and self-build a tree house for HC Andersen Park in the suburbs of Tokyo. He observes how the resulting ephemeral structures, built out of the trees themselves, invited interaction with visitors and, and were ‘less material buildings with solid roofs and walls than “conditions” or “happenings”’. He discerns that the widespread adoption of social media in Japan has resulted in a paradigm shift. This has moved creativity away from the folly, as an object of contemplation, scale-less and position-less on the landscape's horizon and solitary in the mind. In its place, the solitary browsing of networks is causing people to meet in actual space, which resists the easy flows of internet connectivity without imposing walls or rooms.

A Deeper Structural Theory

The architectural critic and author Nina Rappaport celebrates a new structural synthesis that takes a holistic approach to tectonics, uniting the bones or structure of a building with its skin. She calls for a new structurally based theory that effectively fuses culture and technology, embracing ‘deep decoration’ and ‘subtle innovation’ and reviving a design tradition that can be traced back to AWN Pugin and John Ruskin.
