Architects, designers, investors and developers can play a pivotal role in this vital work riverless cars, electric cars and transport infra- structure projects, such as Hyperloop, will radically change our cities over the next fifty years, opening D up opportunities to improve the built environment and create more green space and new leisure districts. Anticipating the retreat of the internal combustion engine from our lives, architects Gensler have partnered with Reebok SINGH AP PHOTO/RAJESH KUMAR to reimagine gas stations as wellness hubs, with the creation of a concept called Get Pumped which would see them offering electric car charging, along with workouts and healthy living services. Gensler’s Alfred Byun said: “We envision our cities of the future to have a network of fitness oases between home and work [housed in redundant gas stations], where you could stop and recharge more than just your car. Imagine an option to leave the traffic jam to unwind with yoga, get your Crossfit Fix, or pick up a green juice and your weekly farm shop all in one place.” What can you do to add trees to environments you control?

    Büro Ole Scheeren Unveils Design for Guardian Art Center in Beijing

    PRESS RELEASE March 9, 2015 A fusion of time and a synthesis of China's rich cultural history: Büro Ole Scheeren unveils design for Guardian Art Center in Beijing Located in close proximity to the Forbidden City, construction is underway on the new headquarters of China’s oldest art auction house. Embedded in the historic fabric of central Beijing, the building will form a new hybrid institution between museum, event space, and cultural lifestyle center. Ole Scheeren’s design for the Guardian Art Center carefully inscribes the building into the surrounding context, in a sensitive architectural interpretation that fuses history and tradition with a contemporary vision for the future of a cultural art space. The ‘pixelated’ volumes of the lower portion of the building subtly refer to the adjacent historic urban fabric, echoing the grain, color and intricate scale of Beijing’s hutongs, while the upper portion of the building responds to the larger scale of the surrounding contemporary city. This floating ‘ring’ forms an inner courtyard to the building and further resonates with the prevalent typology of the courtyard houses in Beijing. “The Art Center will be a tangible link between past, present, and future. It celebrates history and tradition while also representing an important social and civic amenity for the capital” says China Guardian’s Chairman and Founder, Chen Dongsheng. “The design of the building shares its qualities with those of Guardian. It is profound, simple, and clean, and exudes a sense of stability and trustworthiness” adds Mr. Chen. “Ole Scheeren’s work is rooted in culture and history; it reflects the culture of the site and the culture and customs of the Chinese people.
