Axis Viana Hotel / Architecture developed by VHM

 Axis Viana Hotel / Architecture developed by VHM

Axis Viana Hotel represents one of our newest works where the main idea was to share two different approaches : photorealistic and conceptual.

For the photorealistic views we used the two well-known references of the project and tried to reproduce them 100% equal to achieve the most precise and accurate result possible. On the other hand, the three conceptual views are focused in creating a personal vision of the building in a post-apocalyptic future, with all the environment and time consuming that this scenario may be represented.

National Gallery in Berlin / Mies van der Rohe

National Gallery in Berlin

Guillermo Hevia Garcia took this nice pictures of the Neue National Gallery in Berlin, by Mies van der Rohe. This building is from 1968, and it´s a jump from the traditional museum idea of a closed building with exhibition rooms, into an open-plan flexible space.

The building is 64.8m long, with only 2 steel columns on each side, which free the corners giving the building a lightweight look. A very “Mies” building, with a clear and radical idea put on a very minimal, yet detailed structure.

This is the first non-contemporary building we have published so far on ArchDaily. Would you like to see more articles like this?
