Cube et Microarchitecture (Marilou)

Microarchitecture:

citation du créateur, Worapong Manupipatpong

"I’m interested in furniture design, not only its appearance, but how we spatially interact with it... I am also interested in micro architecture when the architectonic scale is as close as human scale. It’s about the quality of smallness. Smallness is probably the spatial quality that reminds us childhood nostalgia when we can access to most of the small spaces in our home. We can no longer play under the table, be hide the couch, or hide in the wardrobe. There are no such secrete spaces anymore when our body has grown up. Those small spaces still exist and visible, but not accessible anymore.

Taipei Performing Arts Center

NL Architects have designed the Taipei Performing Arts Center like a giant cube of Swiss cheese set over a public square, with the missing sections there to provide light and visual interest for the overall impact that the design is meant to have.

Inside the Taipei Performing Arts Center, you’ll find your typical cultural center of library, stores, stages, lobbies, bars, and restaurants. Balconies galore feature swimming pools, a skate area, playground, hotel garden, and cafe
