HOW CEILING HEIGHTS IMPACT OUR BEHAVIOUR. Most of us feel a sense of awe and perhaps even spirituality when we enter a big grand ornate cathedral Why? Well the short answer is because they were designed to have this effect on us and there are a few ways in which it works. According to science and our human physiology, our eyes tend to role upwards when we think of large spaces or distant times and upward roles of the eyes also accompany intense religious experiences, meditative states and hallucinatory states. So when we enter a building of vast scale, our eyes are drawn upwards towards the ceiling triggering the part of the brain responsible for abstract thought. This is also by the way why it is important to have high ceilings in creative offices and low ceilings in spaces more meant for task driven functions.

The image depicts a futuristic, organic-shaped building reminiscent of Zaha Hadid's iconic style. A central, domed hub, possibly inspired by Norman Foster's love for spherical structures, serves as the focal point. Towering, grid-like structures, reminiscent of Frank Gehry's deconstructivist designs, surround the dome. These structures, with their unique grill-like facade, offer both aesthetic appeal and practical sun protection. The building could function as a university campus or a medical center, with the dome serving as a central gathering space and the towers housing various functions like classrooms or patient rooms. what do u think it could function for i am leaning to the medical center more. #Architecture#Ai#curves#future#Façades

Did you know? Architecture and interior architecture are like two sides of the same coin, each playing a vital role in creating exceptional built environments! 🏗️ 🔍 While architects shape the external form of buildings, considering factors such as structure, aesthetics, and sustainability, interior architects focus on refining the interior spaces, balancing functionality, comfort, and style. Together, they collaborate seamlessly to bring visions to life, crafting spaces that inspire and enrich the lives of those who inhabit them. Join us as we celebrate the collaborative spirit and creative synergy between these two dynamic disciplines! What distinct differences do you have in your industry? PS - this is a project we completed for a Berkshire-based orthodontist surgery, including their reception area. #InteriorArchitecture #DesignCollaboration #BuiltEnvironment #CreativeSynergy

"In this project", the architects of BLOCKSTUDIO tell us, "the most difficult thing was measuring the load of the bookcase pillars and the books they contained. We could say that we tried to calculate the weight of knowledge". Yes, because in the concept of the new coworking space in Dom Tvorchestva, Peredelkino, a village less than thirty kilometers from #Moscow, it is the bookcases and volumes that divide the spaces into distinct areas, acting as functional and decorative elements at the same time, to reconcile innovation and respect for the past and, last but not least, to define the essential and maximalist style. .
