“Short Story”
Made from recycled paper, this tiny home explores sustainable architecture and low-impact construction!
In Spring Valley, Nevada, Roundhouse Platform constructed an architectural prototype built to explore the contextual relationship between space, structure, and texture within a small accessory building called Short Story, a 2.4m by 2.4m desert dwelling.
From the outside, Short Story appears like a simple, cubic shed that’s familiar in texture, build, and shape compared to nearby desert dwellings. While the outside does look familiar from afar, a closer look reveals the building’s changing gradient from bleached sandstone with wispy textures near the building’s base to rusty, brick red tones near the building’s top as a result of the cladding materials’ varying applied thickness.
Moving inside, latticed, whitewashed wood framing expands the building into a multi-level, open-plan space where residents can climb between floors using a staircase formed out of rough-hewn logs.
The project took three weeks to build and adopts a low-impact construction practice with sustainable materials.

FUJISAWA SUSTAINABLE SMART TOWN
IMAGINE um projeto incorporando setores público e privados, com companhias promovendo iniciativas avançadas em promover novos estilos de vida, mais inteligentes e sustentáveis.
Além disso, com um olhar desenvolvido para que daqui 100 anos, a cidade permaneça atual e aberta a adaptações de acordo com novos serviços e tecnologias.
Com espaços físicos e virtuais onde moradores terão a possibilidade de compartilhar objetivos, sendo incentivados a interagir e trocar ideias para a melhoria da cidade - e pasmem - tendo uma administração que levará tais ideias em conta, além de promover o suporte contínuo para a evolução sustentada da cidade.
Esta mesma gestão terá ainda a preocupação em servir bem aos moradores em cada aspecto em termos de energia, segurança, mobilidade, bem-estar, serviços comunitários e emergenciais, ambicionando servir de modelo e laboratório para novas cidades.

When trash meets human creativity it becomes handy, smart, practical, useful... and extremely beautiful to look at! Lugu Test Area stands for sustainable deco design. For this year the artist collective promised to expand the playground around the Dance Temple which is shown in this little video.
