  • Frame 05.2015 Project / Savoy Ulus Clubhouse
    178 To soften the large, cold architectural shell, Autoban inserted an inner shell of wood into the Savoy Ulus clubhouse, a 1,700-m2 sports and entertainment centre that is part of a residential complex in Istanbul. By inserting one structure into another at the Savoy Ulus clubhouse, Autoban demonstrates the power of architecture and interior design working in tandem.

  • EU Prize for Contemporary Architecture/Mies Van Der Rohe Awards
    Since 1988, the European Commission and the Fundació Mies van der Rohe of Barcelona have been jointly responsible for the biennial European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture - Mies van der Rohe Award. The proposals made for each prize submitted by the nominators – the experts, the national architects associations and the advisory committee – are used by the Jury to arrive at its decisions on the Prize Winner, the Emerging Architect Winner and a broad selection of shortlisted works to disseminate European architecture by means of catalogues, exhibitions, lectures and debates. In 2013, the 13th Award coincided with its 25th anniversary. In the course of these 25 years, the Fundació has organised thirteen Awards and built up a database of nearly 2,500 nominated works, one of the largest archives on contemporary architecture, consisting of photographs, drawings, digital and audiovisual materials and models. The 14th Award received 420 nominated works, from amongst which the Jury members shortlisted 40 projects. Five finalist works competed for the Prize, and one Emerging Architect was chosen.

They were there to remove two of its most illustrious occupants: portraits that Raphael painted around 1504-1505. The two canvases, which show a Florentine merchant, Agnolo Doni, and his wife, Maddalena Strozzi, were gingerly carried through a nearly half-mile-long passageway that links the Pitti to the Uffizi.
