Vikarna basement, designed by Studio 4000, is a relocation of an architectural studio to the basement by enhancing its experience. The brief also had scope for exploring possible additional uses and values to the marginal spaces of the plot and give expression to the idea of living & working from the same place to the common users. Considering this, the design intervention began by setting aside specific functional requirements to start with; instead an attempt was made to work outwards at general qualities – sky-visibility, natural ventilation, daylight factors – and placeness.

Etam Paris, designed by MVRDV, takes advantage of the building’s wedge-shaped floor plan by stripping back the exterior as much as possible. It highlights the building’s clean classical appearance, allowing plenty of light to enter the Etam store from both sides and creating large windows for display. The preservation and modernisation of existing buildings serves as a key sustainability strategy for MVRDV.

Cerrado House, designed by Vazio S/A, explores the programme/form relationship as an inevitable correspondence. The play between function and form here is spontaneous and undogmatic: the ramps and stairs of the swimming pool are stamped onto the façades and shape the internal space. There is no landscape design: the house sits on natural terrain, whose immensity and vistas are best seen from the pool terrace.

Shelter Rooms, designed by Studio 4000, provide place of rest & drinking water facility for a large work force doing multiple shifts on the port. Port authorities required several of these dotting the edge along the harbour to be replaced with new designs.
