| Contemporary University Design: Ravensbourne College Building in London Posted: 27 Mar 2011 04:16 AM PDT The digital media and design section of Ravensbourne College in London can now take pride in their new college building. The project below was completed by Foreign Office Architects in order to meet the shifting demands of 21st century learners. Here is more from the project developers: “The architecture of the building has been designed to express the culture of contemporary production, by using a non-periodic tiling system which symbolises a more diverse and contemporary approach to technology. Gothic rose windows and flower patterns have also been a rich field of inspiration for the project, but in this building they will not be produced as an imitation of nature but as an abstract construction. To achieve this we have resorted to the use of a non-periodic tiling pattern on the façade, which allowed us to build seven different types of windows out of only three different tiles.” Freshome readers, what is your choice- traditional or contemporary university building designs?

| Magnificent “Monster Loft” in Stockholm with Breathtaking Interior Arrangements Posted: 27 Mar 2011 01:24 AM PDT We recently received an e-mail from one of our readers sharing with us this fascinating apartment in Stockholm. Here is a short project description from the real estate agency currently promoting this apartment: “Eklund Stockholm New York is proud to present this magnificent residence located on the top floor of a very attractive building on one of the most desired addresses in Stockholm. This monster loft with amazing architecture and exposures in all four directions is blasted in sun from its glorious windows and high ceilings, 16 feet! The apartment has gone through complete renovations where no details have been spared. Exclusive materials and appliances by the Italian brand Boffi has been used in both kitchen and bathroom. The residence features an open and very spacious living area with a fantastic wood burning fire place, a custom built bookshelf that emphasizes the height and shape of the ceiling and separate dining area from where you can enjoy the wonderful views over Östermalmstorg.” Freshome readers, despite the “speechless” state this apartment could induce, we would love to read your comments regarding this project.
