New Hungarian Natural History Museum ➕Designed to merge architecture with landscape, rethinks the museum as an open, immersive environment. Located within the Great Forest in Debrecen, the building unfolds as a terraced structure that blends into its surroundings, offering continuous connections between interior spaces and the natural context. Green terraces, rooftop gardens, and 360-degree views extend the experience beyond exhibitions, linking the museum to the nearby zoo and surrounding ecosystem. Outdoor learning zones and ecological pathways transform the project into an active environment for exploration, where visitors engage directly with biodiversity and environmental processes. • Architect: Mecanoo (@mecanoo_ ) • Year: 2025 • Area: 322,917 ft² • Renders: Mecanoo (@mecanoo_ ) _ #ArchitectureNow - #SustainableArchitecture - #SubmitYourProject All materials presented on this site are Ⓒ copyrighted and owned by the creators mentioned above.

➕ The escalator at The Broad museum in Los Angeles is a 105-foot-long (32-meter) ride that acts as a designed experience, transporting visitors from the lobby through the the third-floor galleries. It is designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro (@diller_scofidio_renfro ). _ #ArchitectureNow - #TheBroadMuseum

➕ Beyond drawings and buildings, it’s often their words that stay with us. Through interviews, reflections, and advice, architects share ideas that have inspired generations to grow, trust their vision, and keep going—even in moments of doubt. _ #ArchitectureNow - #WordsOfArchitect

Sunner Museum ➕ This project made by Atelier Alter Architects (@atelier_alter_architects ) reframes an industrial program as a public-facing cultural space. Rather than a conventional enclosed volume, the building is organized through a series of interconnected roof planes that rise and overlap, allowing circulation to extend across the architecture and into its surroundings. The main exhibition hall is resolved as an open, flexible space, where structural cores replace columns to support a tall central void that brings natural light deep into the interior. Externally, the use of folded concrete panels references agricultural construction logic while integrating ventilation, drainage, and enclosure into a single system. A planted roof further enhances environmental performance, helping regulate temperature while visually merging the building with the landscape. • Architect: Atelier Alter Architects (@atelier_alter_architects ). • Year: 2024 • Area: 73,195 ft² • Photography: Highlite Images (@highliteimages ), Cyan & Orange Images, Atelier Alter Architects _ #ArchitectureNow - #SubmitYourProject All materials presented on this site are Ⓒ copyrighted and owned by the creators mentioned above.

MoN Takanawa: The Museum of Narratives ➕ This project Kengo Kuma and Associates (@kkaa_official ) explores a layered architectural language through a series of horizontal, undulating bands that wrap the building in a continuous ribbon-like façade. Natural materials and planted terraces soften the overall mass, while breaking it down into human-scaled elements that invite interaction. Circulation extends outward, blurring the boundary between interior galleries and the city, allowing the museum to function less as a singular object and more as a topographic extension of its surroundings. • Architect: Kengo Kuma and Associates (@kkaa_official ) • Year: 2026 • Photography: Toshy 129 (@toshy129 ) _ #ArchitectureNow - #NewArrival - #JapaneseArchitecture All materials presented on this site are Ⓒ copyrighted and owned by the creators mentioned above.

➕ A visionary voice in contemporary architecture, Christian de Portzamparc (@christiandeportzamparc ) is known for redefining the relationship between buildings and the city through his concept of the “open block.” His work explores fragmented volumes, layered urban compositions, and the fluid interaction between public and private space, creating architecture that feels both dynamic and deeply contextual. _ #ArchitectureNow

➕ Rising above New York City, the Empire State Building stands as one of the most iconic achievements of 20th-century architecture and engineering. Completed in 1931 in just over a year, its construction embodied speed, precision, and ambition during a defining moment in history. From steel frame assembly to its Art Deco crown, the building became a symbol of progress, resilience, and the vertical growth of the modern city.95 years later, its legacy continues to shape how we imagine the skyline. _ #ArchitectureNow - #95YearsOfTheEmpireState - #EmpireState

➕ Designed by Javier Senosiain (@javiersenosiaina ), Parque Quetzalcóatl in Naucalpan (@parquequetzalcoatl ) integrates vegetation, water systems, and sculptural forms to create its own microclimate. Built with ferrocement and local materials, its serpentine geometry follows the terrain, shaping a continuous spatial journey through tunnels, ramps, and levels—while also functioning as an active environmental strategy for regeneration. • Architect: Javier Senosiain (@javiersenosiaina ). • Year: 2007 • Photography: Montse Clairin (@montseclairin ) + Emiliano Arcos (@emiarcoss ) _ #ArchitectureNow All materials presented on this site are Ⓒ copyrighted and owned by the creators mentioned above.
