It’s not often that you come across a home with 30,000 gallons of water in the living room. But one rare property in Manhattan is equipped with just that—an indoor pool that doubles as an entertainment area for the owners.The 15-by-30-foot pool is eight-feet deep and was installed in 1975 by previous owners. The pool level has a brick wall and is surrounded by granite flooring and living-room furnishings. The artwork, antiques, medieval weaponry and plantings in the adjoining atrium give the space a “cave-like, medieval, Moroccan look.”

Nuclei by novastructura

Nuclei is a project about space, space filling and fields. Starting from a Sphere, the solid with the smallest description (4 float numbers, centre and radius) and applying several type of scalar fields to its volume, a large set of boxes is used to highlight the shape and the tension of the underlying forces, through the modification of their dimension, density and orientation. A Processing applet has been used for fast experiments and to produce DXF files for final renderings.

Hush’ – Open plan offices and public buildings, CCTV, online profile sharing, cameras built into our laptops; never has it been easier for humans to connect, but what about when we want to withdraw? The ‘womb’ shape inspires very different feelings in different people; it is a warm, cosy space, for contemplation and rest. By creating an enclosed space ‘Hush’ provides a personal retreat, an escape into a dark, quiet, natural space, or state of mind. Hush can also be transformed to provide more traditional open seating.
