Al Rostamini Headquarters | MAD

The new headquarters for al rostamini, by MAD, in dubai’s waterfront business area are conceived as a hovering slab that rather than cutting the line between the public and the water gives a clear view and entrance to it. this building will float by 9 diagonal tubes that pierce trough the slab from the back and 4 of this tubes pierce all the way creating holes on the front of the building.

El Aqua en Chicago me impresiona cada vez mas. Sus elementos son muy sencillos, su canceleria, sus barandales, su distribucion y geometria, todo es muy estandar. Sin embargo el resultado es un espectaculo.

Fake Hills | MAD

Year 2008
Location Beihai, China
Typology Residential Apartment
Site Area: 109,203sqm
Building Area: 492,369sqm
Building Height: Slab-106m; Tower-194m
Status Under construction

Throughout China's ultra-rapid urbanization, attention has been focused on set-piece architecture: opera houses, museums, stadiums. However these would-be icons form the exception rather than the rule. The vast majority of development in China's new cities takes the form of residential schemes, often standardized and cheap to guarantee developers a quick return. Is it possible to build high-density, economically viable housing which is also architecturally innovative?

Our design for a new housing development is located in the coastal city of Beihai, on a long, narrow waterfront site. The design concept combines two typologies that most commonly define residential developments in China: high rise towers and long, low rise blocks. The result is a bold new structure, a long slab with an undulating roof and circular openings. This unique shape maximizes the views of the residents, but at the same time becomes a monolithic break between the waterfront and the land behind it.

The solution is twofold: to cut into the slab, creating a sculpted form which references the shape of the hills that dominate the region's landscape, and to cut openings through the structure, allowing views and light to penetrate the structure.

A further reference point is traditional Chinese architecture's intrigue with nature. Rather than sitting the building in a perfect, man-made natural garden, our structure becomes the man-made natural shape itself: fake hills on which the residents can live. The design provides both a high density solution and a new landmark for the city.
