Essay: David Heymann A Mound in the Wood Sorce:  http://places.designobserver.com/feature/a-mound-in-the-wood-on-sculpture-and-architecture/31248/ Peter Zumthor, Saint Benedict Chapel, Sumvtig, Switzerland, 1989. Herzog and de Meuron, Prada Aoyama, Tokyo, 2003. [Photos by David Heymann] Here, bluntly put, is one conclusion to draw from the earlier essay in this series on buildings and landscape : for many architects working today, site mapping strategies serve as a smoke screen — perhaps well-intentioned, perhaps not — used to sell highly sculptural constructions as landscape sensitive to a gullible public, that, were it not for this blinding landscape component, would likely and correctly be suspicious of our intent. And I mean sculptural here in the most obvious, perhaps least interesting and old-fashioned way: as strange aggressive objects that demand attention by being physically complex.

Nikola-Lenivets International Design Competition Nikola-Lenivets Project and Archstoyanie Festival announce the competition for Nikola’s Belvedere art object which is meant to become one of the main landmarks in Nikola-Lenivets. The competition’s objectives include design and construction of observation deck/belvedere which will connect composition-wise Rotunda by Brodsky and Arch by Bernaskoni art objects into a uniform architectural ensemble and will become the high-rise dominant of Versailles Park. The main function of the belvedere is to let one see the panoramic view of the landscape from above. The competition is held in two stages.

After the shortlisted drafts are completed, the Jury, on the basis of experts’ advice, will determine the finalist of the competition. The winner will be rewarded a cash prize of 100,000 rubles and provided with funding for the belved

Zaha Hadid regeneriše Beograd "Cilj nam je da oplemenimo ovaj deo grada i damo mu novu namenu, ali istovremeno sačuvamo duh i kulturu Kalemegdana, unapredimo i poboljšamo šire područje oko tvrđave i ojačamo infrastrukturu ovog dela grada." Ovako će BEKO izgledati u budućnosti Izgradnjom savremenog kompleksa na mestu nekadašnje tekstilne fabrike Beko, koji je dizajnirala Zaha Hadid, biće nastavljen moderni razvoj Beograda koji je bio naglo prekinut osamdesetih godina prošlog veka. Nova multifunkcionalna građevina kod Kalemegdana probudiće beogradski duh “moderne”, karakterističan za glavni grad Srbije tridesetih, pedesetih i sedamdesetih godina. Svaka od tih dekada obeležena je ključnim zgradama koje i danas predstavljaju ikone Beograda i regiona: čuvena Palata Albanije i Radio Beograd tridesetih godina, ceo Novi Beograd sa svojim draguljem - palatom SIV-a pedesetih
