Harlow Town Centre Design by Engle Architecture in Harlow, United Kingdom Posted: 08 Jun 2013 09:43 PM PDT Harlow Town Centre is Designed by Engle, located in Harlow, United Kingdom. Neil Morris of Engle, the award winning architectural practice behind this and many other town centre regeneration projects currently underway, said: ¨Particular emphasis has been placed on rejuvenating the extensive areas of public realm focused around a new water garden scheme.¨ Engle's design re-integrates the northern area of the town centre and Market Square quarter with the Harvey Centre and the Water Gardens development to the south. It also includes 420,000 sq ft of residential space and a 60,000 sq ft hotel. Following public consultation during summer 2009, a planning application will be brought forward in 2010. Subject to planning permission the new development is expected to open in phases from late 2013 with completion in 2015. London architect, Engle, has unveiled to the public the first images of the mixed use scheme, which is set to transform Harlow Town Centre. The 1.3 million sq ft project, which seeks to regenerate Britain's first pedestrian precinct, originally masterplanned by Sir Frederick Gibberd in 1947, was selected in 2008 in a heavily contested competition. Engle's masterplan, including over 500,000 sq ft of retail and leisure space with a new department store and food hall, new leisure quarter including a multiplex cinema, cafe's and restaurants will be presented at the Public Exhibition, taking place from Thursday 9th to Sunday 12th July. The Development Team – a partnership between Harlow Council, the developer, Stockland, and Harlow Renaissance – is asking people to come along to view the proposals and to have their say about the scheme.

Panama House Design by Studio MK27, in são paulo, Brazil Posted: 08 Jun 2013 09:43 AM PDT This Panama House is designed by Studio MK27, located in são paulo, Brazil. The interior plan is organized into 3 floors and a sub-solo. Upon entering the lot, a tree-covered patio leads the guest to the door. A social hall distributes part of the program of the house: a library, vertical circulation, the utility rooms and the living room. From within the library you can see, in front of the exterior stone wall, a Maria Martins sculpture, reposing over a reflecting pool. The living room has large spans that open, in their entirety, to the garden, building a spatial continuity between interior and exterior. In the garden, the pool, mirrors the stones of the wall. The site of Casa Panamá is located in one of the garden neighborhoods, just some blocks from Paulista, the financial center of the city of São Paulo. The client has an important art collection, above all, modern Brazilian art, and the house was designed to house this collection. The works of art are scattered throughout all the areas of the residence, from the bedrooms to the gardens
