Hotel Sultania is a hotel which takes its name after the sultans of Ottoman empire and carries comfort and lines of that period. It is a project of which design and application made by Bora ÇAKILKAYA and finished in a little time period such as 90 days. As the hotel situated an area called Old Istanbul City, the designer reflected this region's lines and also stories to the place.

| Dichroic Illusion Stations | Margot Krasojevic Posted: 30 Jul 2011 01:27 AM PDT
Designed by Margot Krasojevic, the project is for the design of 2 cable car stations along the edge of the Gobi desert, starting from Ordos city the trail leads into the deserts sand dunes, a major tourist attraction. The form optimises the use of dichroic and holographic film in glass cladding, which helps to adapt to the specific site conditions and their extreme temperatures and reflectivity, while articulating a coherent overall formal architectural language.  Dichroic Illusion Stations, render courtesy Margot Krasojevic Two contrasting elements 'Reflecting sky & Shadow' generate each station's design criteria, influencing a series of reflected and projected spatial experiences both physical and projected light displays. A lightweight organic roof structure floats on top of a concrete plinth. The artificial landscape functions as a relief in which various movements and circulations are inscribed. The Roof Shell's fluid shapes and organic contours mimic the nature of the ever changing sand dunes, like it’s environment the structure is never seen in the same way twice. It shimmers and abstracts as well as camouflages itself within it’s context, it’s presence and characteristic always determined by the natural sunlight and it’s intensity.  Dichroic Illusion Stations, render courtesy Margot Krasojevic New production methods like CNC milling and thermoforming guarantee a very precise and automatic translation of the computer generated design into the built structure. The resulting aesthetics might be reminiscent of streamlined Industrial Design pieces (Car Bodies, Aeroplane Wings, Yachts etc.). Each station has its context, its topography, its projected light spaces, its movements. The track's inclination and ratios are dominant technical parameters. A high degree of flexibility enables the shell structures to adjust to these various parameters while still responding directly to the natural light levels which have determined its form. The concept of lightness is explored. Large cantilevers and small touch down areas underline a floating appearance of the dichroic illusion stations.  Dichroic Illusion Stations, render courtesy Margot Krasojevic The form allows for air to circulate and cool the interior, the plinth prevents conduction of heat from the immediate environment. The structure is lifted from the ground permitting a breeze to move through the pre-cast concrete primary structure. The structure accommodates different types of cladding modules, which can be replaced according to season, during the winter months the Siberian winds form sheets of ice, the photovoltaic polychrystalline panels keep the stations from freezing allowing for the winds to carry through it not only sand but prevent ice from settling within the structure. The structure acts as an atrium, perforated temporary louvres shelter from the sand and direct sun whilst the Thermoplus energy high yield glass acts as an all season insulating glass, providing thermal insulation against both cold and excessive heat.  Dichroic Illusion Stations, render courtesy Margot Krasojevic Whilst the overall form allows for the prevailing Siberian winter winds to glide over it it is important to test materials within a formal constraint in order to understand the materials affects on light reflection and refraction particularly when working with the environment and sustainability. The form has developed using a computer software which uses the dynamics and physics of a specific environment such as the Ordos desert in order to understand through simulation and caustics how light is scattered and can be controlled in turn predicting how exactly the form can influence and respond to it’s environment. An important mechanical test rather than purely a formal gesture.

| Skywalk Rennweg 44 – 46 | SOLID architecture Posted: 30 Jul 2011 12:26 AM PDT
SOLID architecture designed a bridge that is enclosed on all sides to connect the two buildings Rennweg 44 and 46 at the fifth upper floor, 17 metres above the Kleistgasse in the third district of Vienna. The bridge with a span length of 22 metres was completed in May 2009.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46, image courtesy SOLID architecture  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46, image courtesy SOLID architecture Architecture In reference to its outward appearance, the bridge adds a third and formally individual element to the two existing buildings dating back to the 1980ies. The fair grey metallic colour of the exterior surfaces of the bridge assimilates with the grey-green colour spectrum of the two already existing building structures.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46, image courtesy SOLID architecture Large-area glazed sidewalls make the supporting construction of the bridge, which is arranged inside, visible from the outside, and they make the bridge appear light and transparent. The interior area of the bridge has its own individual character, independent of the two already existing buildings.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46, image courtesy SOLID architecture If you cross the bridge, you will experience space that is dominated by the dynamic alignments of the supporting construction and the bottom and top plate. There may also be made out a colour difference between the interior area of the bridge on the one and the existing building structure on the other side. With the exception of the fair grey floor, all surfaces are white. Extending from the building Rennweg 46, there is created a horizontal plane into the road space, 17 metres above ground level of the Kleistgasse. From this horizontal area, there is presented a wonderful view onto the road space situated beyond and as far as the towers of the Arsenal. Following a bend in the botton plate, a slightly inclined ramp counterbalances the difference in height between the two building structures and leads into the building Rennweg 44. The construction of the details is reduced and simply supports the view and the atmosphere and the effect of the space created.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46 - Section, drawing courtesy SOLID architecture Statical System of the Bridge The main supporting structure of the bridge is formed by means of two supporter trusses spanned beyond. The top chords of these trusses – welded hollow profiles with a lower flange projecting on one side – are integrated in the roof plane. The trussed beams consist of welded rectangular hollow steel tubes. There are integrated welded I-beams as supports in the walking plane. These I-beams are suspended by means of tension rods from the main supporters, and they are attached to the supporter trusses of the main supporters in the bend of the bridge. Roof and floor level are formed as horizontal latticed framework and transmit the horizontal load into the already existing buiding structures.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46, image courtesy SOLID architecture Geometry of the Bridge From the buildings Rennweg 44 and Rennweg 46, there is extended a horizontal plane into the road space: The bottom plate with a 6% inclined ramp and the bridge roof with its inclined roof area extend over to the 1.04 m-offset level of the neighbouring building. The bends of the two levels – bottom plate and roof – are situated on top of each other.  Skywalk Rennweg 44 - 46 - Plan, drawing courtesy SOLID architecture In ground view, the bridge is tapering from 2.70m down to a width of 2.35m at the middle of the bridge. In combination with the bends in the roof and the bottom plate there is created a bridge structure, which extends across the road space in a rather elegant way; furthermore, its interior area is clearly dominated by the perspective dynamics of the strongly aligned lines. Illumination The bridge is illuminated by means of two parallel light panels extending alongside the glass walls. These two light bands imitate the bends in the roof and the sidewalls. + Project credits / dataProject: Skywalk Rennweg 44 – 46 Architecture: SOLID architecture ZT GmbH | http://www.solid.ac/ Contractors Planning Data Project Data Awards, Prizes: Exhibition "Gebaut 2009", Architektonische Begutachtungen der MA 19 + All images and drawings courtesy SOLID architecture                |
