Living Unit sets out from Ljubljana, Slovenia, as a compact yet ambitious cabin concept by OFIS architects. The project explores how a self-contained wooden shell can adapt to shifting terrains, climates, and uses, from tourism to emergency shelter. Conceived in 2017, the modular unit turns a small footprint into a surprisingly complete retreat with kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping arrangements ready to multiply across different sites.
Akaike Tohyama Architects‘ Himawari Nursery School in Tokyo, Japan, is a captivating new addition to the city’s architectural landscape. Designed in 2022, this one-story wooden structure was created to foster interaction and experiences among children of different ages. By strategically zoning the nursery rooms, hall, and staff areas, the design promotes a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, transforming the entire site into a vibrant “playground” for the young students.
