On Friday we may have visited the most expensive elementary school ever built with Csaba Valkai and János Dobai, the designer of the house. We arrived in and against penetrating wind in this out-of-reach location: it is beyond family houses competing with pub beauties but still on this side of the nearby motorway.

From the ten-storey prefab houses one can have a full view of the single-storey U-shaped building of the surgery building. In 2007 the local authority decided it was time to have it reconstructed and updated. Launched as a reconstruction, the project evolved into a complete remodelling.

Törökbálint and the industrial park named Depo within its confines is a typically inappropriate location: it is situated in the jungle of three motorways and the lanes connecting them where rush, not-being-present and even provisionality are basic and primary experiences. The DVD factory sits on a steep terrain compared to the neighbouring buildings and it makes the best use of this condition.

Krisztina Palace office block in Nagyenyed Street connecting Krisztina Boulevard with Böszörményi Street has been completed as the first project of Brussels-based Codic International in Budapest to house offices with a total area of 18,000 square metres. The district would like to have a centre with the atmosphere of a provincial town here.

Venice has been successfully applying the strategy of „preservation and continuation”: besides conveying history, the town excellently functions as a contemporary art centre. By having hosted the François Pinault Foundation for Contemporary Art for three years now it supports arts with its institutional presence.

The beginning of this March saw the official opening of the pavillion by Alvaro Siza erected on the rocket base on Hombroich Island near Düsseldorf. The building is an evocation but also the follow-up of brick structures by Erwin Heerich and thus pays tribute to the sculptor who designed the museum island itself.

The American educational system as such is based on the project of „building up” a person with little lexical knowledge but with the capability to know where knowledge is available, how to think and focus on correlations, articulate opinions, respect differences whilst seeing them as a whole, being able to work in teams whilst also holding on as an individual.

In one of the northern districts of the Danish capital close to the sea, the local authority made a decision about building a new school back in the late 1990s. A Copenhagen-based office of architects named Arkitema won the tender published for the project.

The paronomasia of the title also expresses the urbanistic orientation of the volume. Its authors are lecturers with the Urbanistic Department of BME (Budapest Technical University) – they are professionals who do not separate the terrains of urbanists from those of architects.

Sitting on the lot at issue, the two-storey blck of flats with an outside corridor towards its cortile lost its Eclectic-style facade architecture after World War II which was even more exuberant than usual the building and only attracted attention by its naked insignificance for decades.

The tender for one of the newest universities of Denmark was won by Henning Larsen Architects in 2000. Four years later IT University moved into its new home built in a corner of the northern part of Oerestad, the newest district of Copenhagen nearest the inner city.
