PA TAKO LEP DAN JE BIL

Kako veš, kdaj je pomlad? Ko začnejo Kitajci regrat nabirat na nabrežju. Zdaj zdaj začnejo. Lani jih je bilo vse polno. Verjetno gre dobro s pekinško raco.
Na divji strani Ljubljanice tja proti špici je bilo včeraj takole. Enih 20 stopinj. Uživajte.

 

Če imajo pravoslovci lahko svoje novo leto, pa Kitajci in še kdo, ga lahko imamo tudi arhitekti.

Naš prvi januar je letos 23. marca. Izšel je novi avtocad!

In pišemo že leto 2012.

BORBENI ALVAR AALTO

Zgodba o treh prašičkih govori tudi o arhitekturi, o modrih odločitvah, o lenobi in vztrajnosti. 
V spodnjem stripu pa nam MATTI HAGELBERG predstavlja, kaj si ALVAR AALTO, eden najpomembnejših arhitektov vseh časov, misli o vsem tem. In kaj si razni šalabajzerji mislijo o arhitektih.

MOSTOVI - HIDAK V LJUBLJANI 5

 

No pa ga imamo. Leva slika je bila posneta 14. januarja, slaba dva meseca kasneje 11. marca pa desna. Vreme zahvaljujoč globalnim spremembam je ves čas enako. 

Most je sestavljen iz dveh kosov, ki se na sredini stikata. Na otvoritev bo treba še malo počakati ampak dobro mu gre. Ilegalno prečkanje vabi.

PA NE BOM

 

Domiselno oblikovana prošnja namesto prepovedi. Skoraj Art Nouveau

To je vsekakor vzorec, ki je v Sloveniji nekaj novega.

VEŽICA

 

V zadnji številki revije A10 - NEW EUROPEAN ARCHITECTURE je predstavljena tudi mrliška vežica v Želimljah. 

Pride naključni popotnik v Želimlje, zagleda vežico in povpraša župnika po arhitektu - hiša mu je všeč in on si zaželi podobno hišo zase!??!

Arhitekt je Simon Vošnjak, naključni popotnik pa seveda ni iz Slovenije, ampak iz Nizozemske. Lahko bi bil tudi iz Transilvanije.

Priporočamo za ARHI-TURO.

Janja Brodar pa v reviji piše takole:

Greetings from Slovenian Countryside

Funeral home in Želimlje

If you have ever visited the Slovenian countryside, you should know, that a building like this in a tiny forgotten village on the outskirts of Ljubljana must have been created by a very stubborn architect. The surprisingly beautiful and modern small funeral home was actually designed by a young Slovenian upcoming talent Simon Vošnjak, whose time is obviously about to come – his project was listed among the top ten of the last two years by the selector of Slovenian proposals for the Mies van der Rohe Award.

The local community in the Želimlje village 30 km east of the Slovenian capital decided to expand its cemetery and build a funeral home. Vošnjak came up with a very simple idea – he used a traditional countryside gable-roofed house form. On the very edge of the cemetery, he placed one house into another which reminds of the Russian babushka doll. While the small inner house for the deceased is made out of raw concrete, the outer – bigger one – is constructed of wood and covered in copper on the outside. The space between two houses forms a kind of waiting hall for the people attending a funeral ceremony. The use of materials is consistent in every layer – it is continuous from the bottom of the walls to the top of the roof - but still very subtle in its sequence – the heavy rough  concrete core of the building is in great contrast to the light and comforting wooden tent over it.

The architect used glazed surfaces to express catholic symbols: a black steel cross is wisely embedded in a door frame of the inner concrete house. Further on - the glazed part of the back facade is pink, which paraphrases the holy violet colour in an ironic way. The result of all the architectural elements is this very basic, but highly contemplative little funeral home, which is conceptual enough to be loved by architects and useful and truthful enough to please the locals.
