  23-10-2026 19:00 via ArchDaily Global
  
  No Estúdio Semibreve, a materialização da narrativa exigiu um exercício rigoroso de zoneamento e uma subversão proposital da lógica habitacional. Em uma área de 55 metros quadrados, o Estúdio Clara Nahas estabelece uma planta de fluxo invertido, onde a hierarquia convencional entre o público e o privado é reordenada para priorizar o recolhimento. Diferente da recepção imediata por áreas sociais, a entrada acontece pela zona íntima. O visitante da mostra é convidado a percorrer o d

• Scaffolding as Interior Architecture: The Longevity of Temporary Structures

  23-10-2026 09:30 via ArchDaily Global
  
  Scaffolding is perhaps one of architecture's most familiar temporary structures. It accompanies buildings through construction, maintenance, and renovation, only to disappear once its work is complete. Yet its apparent impermanence conceals a different kind of longevity. Scaffolding systems are designed to be assembled, dismantled, transported, and reused, with standardized components robust enough to withstand repeated handling and changing site conditions. Their temporary character lies less i

  23-10-2026 06:00 via ArchDaily Global

This last quality is what unites the six unbuilt projects featured here, all designed and submitted by ArchDaily readers. Here, the definition lies in their sculptural qualities and formal exploration, while their permanence and location vary accordi
