The project is a collective remake of Tyra Dokkedahlās thesis project from 2012.

Mendes da Rochaās Houses
A collection of photographs byĀ Leonardo FinottiĀ of a selection of Mendes da Rochaās houses.
From the Jury Citation of the 2006 Priztker Prize:
Paulo Mendes da Rocha of Sao Paulo, Brazil, inspired by the principles and language of modernism, as well as through his bold use of simple materials, has over the past six decades produced buildings with a deep understanding of the poetics of space. He modifies the landscape and space with his architecture, striving to meet both social and aesthetic human needs.
Adhering to a social vision commensurate with the new world, he reminds us that architecture is foremost a human endeavor inspired by natureās omnipresence. The vast territory of his country has given this architect a rich lineage to harness and reconcile nature and architecture as congruent forces.
His signature concrete materials and intelligent, yet remarkably straightforward construction methods create powerful and expressive, internationally-recognized buildings. There is no doubt that the raw materials he uses in achieving monumental results have had influences the world over.

315. Kenzo Tange /// Tange House /// Seijo, Tokyo, Japan /// 1951-1953
OfHouses presents āPritzkersā First Houses, part IVā: Kenzo Tange (Pritzker 1987) was the most important Japanese architect in the 20th Century. The only house he designed was his familyās residence in Seijo. Tange elegantly managed to reconcile here the Western modernism with the Japanese tradition and is no wonder that Kazuo Shinohara, the other grandmaster of Japanese architecture, took the Tange House as the main reference for his first project (the House in Kugayama, 1954).

314. Gordon Bunshaft /// Travertine House /// Georgica Pond, East Hampton, New York, USA /// 1962
OfHouses presents āPritzkersā First Houses, part IVā: Gordon Bunshaft (Pritzker 1998) designed only one house during his career. His own retreat in the Hamptons, a concrete structure with travertine walls, was home to Bunshaftās extraordinary collection of modern art: Moore, Miro and Giacometti in the garden; Picasso, Dubuffet and Leger on the walls. Bunshaft left the house and the collection as a bequest to the MoMA. The museum kept the art, but the property was put on the market. Martha Stewart bought it and commissioned John Pawson to design an extension. The planned swimming pool and guest bedrooms were not completed, but the house and garden were left mutilated being recognition. The blocks of Italian travertine were halved and now adorn Marthaās kitchen⦠The house was finally demolished in 2005 by Donald Maharam, who bought the lot from Stewart. Asked why he didnāt tried to repair the existing structure, Maharam replied: āWe bought a great piece of property. We didnāt buy a house.ā (Photos: Ā© Ezra Stoller/ESTO.)
303. Team 4 /// Creek Vean /// Feock, Cornwall, UK /// 1964-1966
OfHouses presents āPritzkersā First Houses, part IIIā: Sir Norman Foster (Pritzker 1999) established his first architectural practice in 1963, together with Richard Rogers (Pritzker 2007) and their girlfriends at the timeĀ Wendy Cheesman and Su Brumwell. The practice, named Team 4, debuted with the āCreek Veanā residence for Su Brumwellās parents and received immediate critical acclaim. However, the office was dissolved soon after. Foster established āFoster and Partnersā and Rogers went later on in partnership with Renzo Piano and establishedĀ āPiano and Rogersā.

China Academy of Artsā Folk Art Museum Kengo Kuma & Associates
From the architect:
The Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) in Beijing and China Academy of Art in Hangzhou serve a central role in the field of art education in China. This museum which was planned for the China Academy of Art in the outskirts of Hangzhou was designed with the objectives of being in harmony with the environment and proposing a new relationship between people and art by creating seamless and highly diverse display spaces. The structures were designed with cross-sections that blend in with the mountain slope to instead of grading it, with the respective display spaces seamlessly being revealed as you go through the museum.
Roof tiles used to cover old homes in the area were gathered, and these and various other locally available materials with rich textures such as cedar were used inside. The group of small roofs that were made using these tiles give the museum the appearance of a village. The tiles are held in place with stainless steel wire to create a screen which controls the light and view, and a faƧade that has a rich variation of shadows. This methodology proposes the idea that rather than the gardens being in contrast with the architecture, the soil from the tea gardens is gradually transformed into the man-made architecture.
