The Temerty Building is designed to replace a 1969 wing on the west side of the existing Medical Sciences Building, forming a gateway to Front Campus, the historic heart of the university.

The CIOs I most want to work with are the ones who haven't abandoned either role. They're genuinely curious about how the infrastructure works, not just what it delivers.

'When I go to bed, I go to work.' Starck describes dreaming as an active method in his design process, where sleep becomes a space for production and innovation.

The magic room was a community effort, maintained by many residents volunteering their time to keep it well organised and running smoothly. I often saw my neighbour, Wendy Showyin, when I stopped by.

Fractal 9 began not as a formal design project but as a response to a simple, everyday need, aiming to create something meaningful in an empty corner.

The refurbishment project is characterized by a dual stylistic code, which allows for a harmonious blend of modern and traditional elements within the apartment's design.

In 1962, the architect Buckminster Fuller envisioned a floating city that would free humanity from its dependence on the Earth. The speculative project consisted of enormous geodesic spheres that would naturally levitate in air warmed by the sun and be anchored to mountaintops.

The building, with its discreet facade and lack of expressive gestures, explicitly conveys the intention of creating an austere, silent, contemplative space; with the minimum necessary elements.

"It would be really hard without this space to make good products, if not impossible," Axelsson says.

From the large industrial roofs and galleries of the 19th century to the contemporary atriums of museums and public buildings, glass has been a recurring material in shaping large and monumental interior spaces. More than a technological or engineering solution, these horizontal glazed planes introduce a distinct luminous quality: light that comes from above. Unlike lateral daylight entering through façades, zenithal light is more evenly distributed, reduces harsh shadows, and lends spaces a sense of continuity and openness that is difficult to achieve otherwise.
