The new Student Center for the University of Limerick is located at a significant site at the gateway to the campus, transforming the social experience of the growing student population.

The dream is the confusion machine I didn't have to build, a space where perception slips beyond authorship. Within Communal Dreams, influence operates as a subtle signal rather than a directive force.

The Walking Man has been spotted around various New York City subway stations, awarding fans with prizes and terrifying unsuspecting straphangers with an unsettling smile.

The entire indoor journey, from entry to elevator to the 100th floor, has been reimagined as a multi-sensory, immersive environment. The overhaul comes via a collaboration between experiential design firm Journey, multimedia studio Moment Factory and NYC-based design outfit SOFTlab.

The mirrored chandelier that dangles ominously over Marianne Elliott's production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses is a true spectacle, even at a tech rehearsal. At nearly five metres wide, it's more than a third of the width of the National Theatre's vast Lyttelton stage.

"[The project] has finally restored the perception of the monument's original size and floor level," architect Stefano Boeri said in a statement. "It also offers the public the opportunity to approach its walls and imagine the rhythm and sequence of the ambulatories and arches, now lost. It's a respectful and useful project that completes research carried out by the archaeologists of the Colosseum Archaeological Park."

'With the recent news that the building's redevelopment is on track for autumn 2027, our inbox has been overflowing with residents asking if we'll be involved,' says the Castle in a statement.

The initiative focuses on enhancing visitor experience, improving accessibility, and advancing energy resilience, while supporting the long-term stewardship of the institution.

Many critics praised the new building as 'a shot of rejuvenating playfulness' and 'brilliantly subtle,' while others noted it appeared rushed with visible flaws like packing tape on the staircase.

Viewpoints are structures designed for observing the landscape from elevated positions. They act as devices that organize the gaze and establish a direct relationship between the body and the territory.

The design is both innovative and beautiful, meeting the ambition and sensitivity required for an international gallery commission. It is respectful of the Sainsbury Wing galleries and the approach to the public realm and roof garden creates a generous presence, enhanced by trees and greenery.

The ballroom design features impractical elements like a stairway to nowhere and fake windows, emphasizing a focus on flashiness over functionality.

The contemporary technology museum has emerged as a performative participant in the systems it seeks to document. The architecture of these institutions has become increasingly fluid and bold, often mirroring the velocity and complexity of the systems it houses. They operate as mediators between the human, the ecological, and the technological realms, transforming from encyclopedic warehouses into active educational engines.

Decades of research in environmental psychology and building science reveal that indoor conditions can profoundly affect human health and behavior. Lighting influences circadian rhythms and sleep patterns. Air quality impacts cognitive performance and respiratory health. Temperature and acoustics shape comfort and concentration.

So another word about tickets. They did finally announce single-game tickets were going on sale, but only for games though June. It's not enough to keep season plans limited to those requiring fans to buy more tickets than they can use, feeding the secondary markets which the Mets also get a cut of, but "make-your-own-plan" fans like me who've reliably occupied seats for decades,

The Keller is profitable, popular, and central to downtown's recovery. It is time to stop the time-wasting charade and make a decision that reflects fiscal responsibility and the will of Portlanders.

The intervention 'restored the perception of the monument's original scale and pavement level,' while enabling visitors to approach the structure more directly and understand the sequence of the ambulatory and its arches. This recalibration of levels, based on archaeological findings and geometric studies, also enabled the reorganization of the stormwater drainage system, integrating surface slopes and transitions into the paving design while maintaining coherence with the monument's historical configuration.

Set on the edge of the Mediterranean and shaped by centuries of continuous occupation, Naples is a city where architecture is inseparable from time. Layers of Greek foundations, Roman infrastructures, medieval churches, Baroque palaces, and Modern interventions coexist within a dense and compact urban fabric. Naples reveals itself as an accumulation of structures, adaptations, and reuse, where buildings are rarely isolated objects and more often part of a larger spatial, social, and historical system.

At Troubadour, we are driven by a belief in creating extraordinary spaces that inspire artists, audiences, and the stories they come together to share. The 3,000 seat venue is to be built in Greenwich Securing planning permission for the new Troubadour Greenwich Peninsula Theatre marks a major milestone for us, and an exciting new chapter in our commitment to bold, large-scale live performance.

At the heart of the scheme is a substantial upgrade to the Barbican's Conservatory. Longstanding maintenance and accessibility issues will be addressed, alongside the creation of a climate-controlled environment to protect its plant collection. The revamped Conservatory is intended to become a more prominent visitor attraction, with regular free public access and new routes to raised balconies offering views across the tropical landscape.

Heritage sites constitute complex spatial archives in which architecture, history, and collective memory converge. They encompass a wide spectrum of contexts-from archaeological remains, ancient and historic townscapes, UNESCO-listed landscapes, to early modern civic structures and industrial infrastructures. Yet these environments confront challenges: climate change, urban transformation, disaster, shifting social needs, and the gradual erosion of material fabric. Revitalization and restoration projects respond to these conditions by positioning architectural and spatial practice as an active mediator between preservation and the contemporary topologies.

Studio Rossettini revitalizes House LB into a contemporary single-family residence with playful spaces that puts functionality and quality of life at its center. The from the early 1960s in Padua, reimagines the existing structure through its renovation, freeing up the perimeter walls and creating a fluid sequence of spaces that flow between the kitchen, dining room, and living room, with furnishings integrated into architectural niches.
