\u201cGod is in the details,\u201d said Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969), who would have been <\/span>135<\/span><\/a> on March 27th. The son of a master mason and stonecutter, Mies appreciated the power and beauty of materials; this reverence was an essential aspect of his stripped-down aesthetic, bound as it was to his equally famous dictum, \u201cLess is more.\u201d Taken together, the two phrases suggest that attention to detailing can make all the difference in a design \u2014 a great building can only be the sum of many carefully crafted parts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mies\u2019s headline quote sums up the significance placed on details by many great architects throughout the last century. The master of modernism would undoubtedly be happy to see that this appreciation for the little things has not been lost in today\u2019s practice. Many modern-day projects by cutting-edge firms include details of substantial rigor, seamlessly blending form and function to transform a simple junction or material transition into a decisive architectural moment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Given the complexity of contemporary architecture, the list of details that can define the success or failure of a building goes on forever. However, certain features tend to stand out above the rest, and these made the grade for an <\/span>A+Awards<\/span><\/a> category that is dedicated entirely to details. As you consider your entry for the 2021 A+Awards, be inspired by this selection of nine winning projects from last year, each singled out for its creator\u2019s incredible eye for detail.<\/span><\/p>\n

Architecture +Wood<\/b><\/h2>\n

K. S. Kindergarten Lunch House<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>S.O.Y. LABO.<\/span><\/a>, Chiba, Japan<\/span><\/p>\n

The increasing digitization of joint design and other pre-cut technologies has allowed for wood components to be cut within 0.1mm of accuracy. However, this perceived level of precision is deceiving; as an organic material, non-uniform properties are inherent to wood\u2019s materiality. With this conundrum in mind, S.O.Y. LABO set out to rethink their approach to wood. In this wood frame project, 6m long split timbers were set in steel base plates. Twisted the top portions – as opposed to \u201cpulling\u201d both ends \u2014not only produced an intriguing visual effect but also generated tension within the beams, thereby preventing them from sagging.<\/p>\n

Architecture +Glass<\/b><\/h2>\n

P.C. Hooftstraat 138<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>UNStudio<\/span><\/a>, Amsterdam, Netherlands<\/span><\/p>\n

UNStudio took glass as a jumping point in this design for a unique and distinctive flagship store. Also known as “The Looking Glass,” this retail property’s facade celebrates textiles, both in form and function. Three curved glass panels flow down from the brick facade’s upper floors, mimicking transparent fabric as if it were billowing in the wind. This playful treatment of glass culminates at ground level, where it parts like theatre curtains, presenting open spaces at eye-level and unveiling new designs to passing pedestrians. While the treatment of glass may be unconventional, the design remains respectful to the three-windowed vertical division of traditional Amsterdam townhouses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Architecture +Stairs<\/b><\/h2>\n

Olympic House<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>3XN<\/span><\/a>, Lausanne, Switzerland<\/span><\/p>\n

The Olympic House may be the world\u2019s most sustainable office building, having already received LEED Platinum status and, at that, obtaining the highest score ever given (93 0f 100). The project began with the careful deconstruction of administrative buildings that pre-existed on the site. The demolition of the old buildings was selective, allowing for more than 95 percent of the materials to be recycled, reused, or upgraded in 3XN\u00b4s new design. At its center, a dynamic wooden staircase unfurls. Metaphorically, the winding stairs, like the Olympic Games, promote unity among disparate spaces, while their powerful grace evokes athletic energy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Architecture +Fa\u00e7ades<\/b><\/h2>\n

Singha D’Luck Cinematic Theatre<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>Architects 49 Limited<\/b><\/a>,<\/span> Bang Lamung District, \u0e08.\u0e0a\u0e25\u0e1a\u0e38\u0e23\u0e35, Thailand<\/span><\/p>\n

Shadows and a mirrored underbelly manipulate the space beneath this Thai theatre\u2019s building structure, combining to produce the illusion of the building\u2019s levitation. This effect heightens the sensation of the kinetic fa\u00e7ade above. Diamond-shaped pieces of folded aluminum sheets coat the floating cubic form, evoking a traditional Thai art form. These 30,000 golden components create a sparkling wave on windy days, which, like a sea of gold, coaxes visitors to relax and unwind in a memorable cinematic escape.<\/p>\n

Architecture +New Materials<\/b><\/h2>\n

Maison Pour Tous<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>designbuildLAB<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Four, France<\/span><\/p>\n

This community center showcases the earth vernacular of the Auvergne-Rh\u00f4ne-Alpes region; for centuries, inhabitants have celebrated the properties that make the local soil uniquely apt for rammed-earth construction. Within the earthen walls of the three-building complex, baffled spruce ceilings and modular rolling timber storage further underscore the commitment to local material. The dramatic roof overhangs were calculated according to the sun\u2019s path and passively warm or shade the hall. The\u00a0<\/span>Maison for Tous\u00a0<\/span><\/em>(\u201cHouse for All\u201d) is a perspicacious design by a first-year masters studio that reinvents an age-old material as an appeal for a more sustainable future.<\/span><\/p>\n

Architecture +Stone<\/b><\/h2>\n

Stone Nest Amphitheatre for Community Activities<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>He Wei Studio\uff0f3andwich Design<\/span><\/a>, Weihai, China<\/span><\/p>\n

The Stone Nest Amphitheatre comes by its name honestly: Nestled between an exposed jagged precipice and steep cliff, the one-time abandoned stone quarry has been transformed into an open-air amphitheater and public community space. The original stone cliff serves as the perfect backdrop for the modern stage, offering solid acoustic effects and a dramatic yet neutral background that serves as a site of intrigue without distracting or detracting from the wide range of events and activities it hosts. The new constructions were executed in a local traditional stone-laying technique, utilizing rubbles found onsite, resulting in a unique and memorable performance space that blurs the distinction between dichotomies such as historic-modern and man-made-natural.<\/p>\n

Architecture +Ceilings<\/b><\/h2>\n

Apparatus Architects Studio<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>Apparatus Architects<\/span><\/a>, Lisbon, Portugal<\/span><\/p>\n

Apparatus Architects is an emerging design practice that was founded in 2016. When the international team was designing their studios in Lisbon, they chose a deteriorating palace, which had already undergone several transformations that resulted in an unnaturally low ceiling, which not only reducing the influx of natural light from the windows but had also obscured the original mid-18th century wooden beams. Instead of simply uncovering the original ceiling, the team manipulated the regular vaults, attuning their placement to the positions of doors and windows and the flow of natural light.<\/p>\n

Architecture +Metal<\/b><\/h2>\n

108 Chambers<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>Pure + FreeForm<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Woods Bagot<\/span><\/a>, New York, NY, United States<\/span><\/p>\n

In a city of brick, glass, and stone, this moderately scaled tower stands out for its uniquely metallic facade; specifically, for the custom geometric angular spandrel metal panels that frame its exterior windows. The designers began with a clear vision of the sculptural form of the facade. From there, metal became the clear choice of cladding, and Deco Bronze offered a contextual nod to the previous building\u2019s bronze facade. The clear coat metal harnesses the organic resins of pure aluminum, whose varying levels of luminosity provide dazzling optical textures. Combined, the color and reflectivity of the facade dance beneath the sun\u2019s rays.<\/span><\/p>\n

Architecture +Brick<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hobhouse<\/b><\/a> by <\/span>Brisac Gonzalez Architects<\/span><\/a>, London, United Kingdom<\/span><\/p>\n

This new mixed-use development had a double agenda of preserving its historic surroundings while also enhancing the streetscape immediately surrounding it. Six new brick volumes rise to the south with chamfered fa\u00e7ades and set-back upper floors. The new edifices take a cue from material techniques of the not-so-distant past, updating traditional handmade brickwork and horizontal Flemish bonds. The mediation between history and future is also expressed in the two distinct tones of brick: The darker washed blend references the patina of existing structures. At the same time, the lighter pink clay points to those used in the surrounding streets.<\/span><\/p>\n
