UNIKATO Residential Building by KWK Promes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apartment building in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unikato is supposed to stand in the center of Katowice \u2013 once a dynamically developing industrial city. The testimony of that era is the impressive modernist buildings. Today, the city is experiencing a demographic crisis and suffers from sub-urbanization. There is a lack of new residential buildings, and the city is subordinated to car traffic generated by people coming here every day to work from the sprawling suburbs. Unikato is an impulse to reverse this negative trend and breathe new life into the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Idea. Modernist buildings of Katowice, once bright, for many years exposed to the smog, gradually got dirty and became almost black. Their white windows always contrast with the black of the facade. This observation has become an inspiration for the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concrete Discs, Netherlands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Frans de Wit, the artist charged with designing this recreational combination of a rock-climbing facility and look-out point, went on to produce a fine example of landscape art. The climbing wall consists of irregularly stacked concrete blocks, and casts made of actual mountaineering rocks in the Ardennes. The look-out point is reached up an artificial hill forming part of a training circuit. Narrow steps wedged between two gigantic concrete discs 26 meters in diameter provide an alternative way up. This vertical thrust offsets the horizontal trails of rubble across the hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFlying house\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFlying house\u201d by Annunzio Lagomarsini. His wife wanted to see the sea and always have sunlight in the living room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The house was built entirely out of scrap materials, could be lifted 22 meters (65 feet) in the air and rotate following the sun. \u201cI kept building until I saw the sea\u201d said Annunzio Lagomarsini \u201cthen I stopped. if 22 meters in height weren\u2019t enough, I would have gone even higher.\u201d (1977)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
