Kazuyo Sejima is a Japanese architect known for her Modernist design with clean, empty spaces and clear lines. In 2010 Sejima became only the second woman to receive the prestigious Pritzker Prize. Sejima’s work frequently uses glass and other slick materials such as marble and metals. One of her most famous works is the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York – a structure that takes its inspiration from cubes and rectangles to give it a minimal, yet clean feel.

Eva Jiricna is a Czech-born architect and designer who is known for her detailed designs, and particularly her staircases. She is currently the head of the Department of Architecture at the University of Applied Arts in Prague. She gained attention through her innovative use of industrial materials, combined with creative use of light to transform spaces.

Eva combines her background of engineering, architecture and interior design to create unique spaces, frequently centred around staircases. Eva’s staircases are frequently made from glass and steel, but also incorporate other materials. As with any staircases Eva employs a number of measures to ensure safety – among them stair treads and tactile strips (depending on what works aesthetically with the particular staircase). One of her most notable staircases is in Somerset House in London.

We feature Public Farm One by Work Architecture Company

An urban farming project, setup outside outside the P.S.1 Contemporary Art Centre in New York.
The temporary installation was an attempt to bring the qualities of the countryside into the city, by growing fruit and vegetables in large cardboard tubes above a communal area.

Doing this Design for the Transport Education and Training Authority (TETA) meant not just re-designing some elements of the building but bringing form to function of its mandate, mission, vision and values of Trust, Responsibility, Respect, Accountability, Positive attitude, Commitment & Innovation.

Now looking at this building, don't you see and feel those values?
