Architecture and Landscape — Editor’s Note

Architecture and Landscape is where buildings stop being objects and start becoming terrain.

 

These projects treat topography, vegetation, climate, and horizon not as context but as collaborators. Architecture here does not sit on the land — it grows from it, frames it, or disappears within it. From houses carved into hillsides to pavilions that extend the logic of the ground itself, these works explore how design can choreograph a deeper dialogue between built form and the living landscape.

 

This relationship extends into subsurface systems, where architecture is shaped by energy infrastructures and resource flows — revealing how oil politics operates within underground architecture
.

 

This exploration unfolds across multiple layers — from the transformation of  landscape through infrastructure, to the redefinition of material systems , and the often unseen environmental costs  embedded within subterranean construction. Each perspective reveals a different dimension of how architecture is entangled with energy and resource flows.

Caffè Nazionale 在義大利宮殿中以減法設計重現歷史空間

位於阿爾齊尼亞諾一座 19 世紀宮殿內,Caffè Nazionale 在當代飯店設計普遍追求視覺刺激的語境中,選擇了一條更安靜的路徑。這間咖啡館根植於記憶、時間與對場所的尊重,設計並未試圖覆寫歷史,而是以減法回應空間。透過修復原始壁畫、馬賽克地板與建築節奏,建築在不喧賓奪主的前提下,悄然放大日常的儀式感,讓過去重新成為生活的一部分。
