Simple and linear, the span of the Hervey Bay House emphasizes the instrumentality of its windswept environ and the panorama of the bay and headland views. Movement thorough the house is along the continuous grade wall. While anchoring the structure to the site, The wall provides privacy and form for two lightweight glazed pavilion.A series of gal vanished steel portal frames express a legibility of structure and a lightness that contrasts with the solidity of masonry.
All living spaces are afforded views and norther light, and maintain a strong connection to the landscape. Reinforcing this objective, an outdoor living spaces dissents the interior, and links a calm courtyard on the south to the elements of the north an ambiguous indoor and outdoor breezeway. See breezeway are filtered through the open able glazed edge and extracted through a series of rotary roof ventilators to provide natural cooling. Predominantly white,any use of colour is subtle and natural, reiterating the bleached palette of the coastal landscape and emphasizing the textural contrasts of various lightweight materials plywood, fiber cement, plasterboard and glass.

The Danish pavilion at EXPO 2010 will give visitors the opportunity to try some of the best aspects of Danish city life themselves. Through interaction, the visitors are able to actually experience some of Copenhagen’s best attractions – the city bike, the harbor bath, playground settings, a picnic on the roof garden and the opportunity to see the authentic H.C Andersen’s Little Mermaid.
“When we visited the World Exhibition in Zaragoza, we were stunned by the artificial content. State propaganda in paper maché. The Danish Expo pavilion 2010 is the real deal, and not just endless talking. You can ride the city bike, take a swim in the harbor bath, and see the real Little Mermaid”, Founder of BIG, Bjarke Ingels
The pavilion is designed as a traffic loop created by the motion of city bikes and pedestrians tied in a knot. Over 300 free city bikes located upon the roofscape, offer the visitors a chance to experience the Danish urban lifestyle which includes biking everywhere. The loops are connected in two places. Coming from the inside, the visitors can move out onto the roof, pick up a bike and re-visit the exhibition by bike as the outdoor cycle path slips into the interior and runs along the entire exhibition before exiting onto the EXPO grounds. The sequence of events at the exhibition takes place between two parallel facades – the internal and external. The internal is closed and contains different functions of the pavilion. The width varies and is defined by the programme of the inner space. The pavilion’s external façade is made of perforated steel. In the evening time, the façade becomes a sequenced instrument of interactive light illuminating the passers-by.
The exhibition can be experienced in two speeds, as a calm stroll with time to absorb the surroundings and as a dynamic bicycle trip, where the city and city life rush past. Like a Danish city, the Danish pavilion is best experienced on foot and by bike. This way, the pavilion’s theme Welfairytales (Welfare + Fairytales) re-launches the bicycle in Shanghai as a symbol of lifestyle and sustainable urban development. When the Expo closes, the pavilion can be moved to another site in Shanghai and could function as a transfer point for Shanghai’s new city bikes.
“Sustainability is often misunderstood as the neo-protestant notion “that it has to hurt in order to do good”. “You’re not supposed to take long warm showers – because wasting all that water is not good for the environment” or “you’re not supposed to fly on holidays – because airtraffic is bad for the environment”. Gradually we all get the feeling that sustainable life simply is less fun than normal life. If sustainable designs are to become competitive it can not be for purely moral or political reasons – they have to be more attractive and desirable than the non-sustainable alternative. With the Danish Pavilion we have attempted to consolidate a handful of real experiences of how a sustainable city – such as Copenhagen – can in fact increase the quality of life”, Founder of BIG, Bjarke Ingels
The pavilion is a monolithic structure in white painted steel which keeps it cool during the Shanghai summer sun due to its heat-reflecting characteristics. The roof is covered with a light blue surfacing texture, known from Danish cycle paths. Inside, the floor is covered with light epoxy and also features the blue cycle path where the bikes pass through the building. The steel of the facade is perforated in a pattern that reflects the actual structural stresses that the pavilion is experiencing making it a 1:1 stress test. The blue cycle path and white concrete surfaces will further define the arrival and exit areas.
Sitting in the harbor pool at the centre of the pavilion is the real Little Mermaid from the harbor of Copenhagen. As one of three of H.C. Andersen’s fables, who is affectionally known in China as An Tung Shung, which is read by every child in China, this will be seen as a gesture of cultural generosity between Denmark and China. While the mermaid is in Shanghai her place in Copenhagen will be replaced by Ai Wei Wei’s multimedia artwork, including a live broadcast of the statue in Shanghai. Other artists include Jeppe Hein from Denmark, who designed a ’social bench’ that will run alongside the bicycle lane and adapts to its environment elastically by incorporating different functions including a bar for food and drink. The works of Martin De Thurah and Peter Funch are also included in the exhibition areas.
“Throughout the design and realization of the Danish Pavilion a wide range of disciplines, such as architecture, engineering, lighting design and art installations meld together to create a single structure that plays like a finely tuned instrument”, Project Leader of Danish Expo Pavilion 2010 and Partner in BIG, Finn Norkjaer

Last year we reported on Okhta Tower, a new super eco-skyscraper located in St. Petersburg Russia. The twisting tower will primarily serve as the headquarters to Gazprom’s oil unit OAO Gazprom Neft, with additional spaces dedicated to a concert hall, museum, hotel and a business center. The stunning design completed by architecture firm RMJM is about as green as it is tall.  The city is also finding international resistance. St. Petersburg is currently listed as a UNESCO world heritage site, but stands to be stripped of the title if the tower is built.

Mansfield Community Hospital as great project for an architect location of this building taken from building name located near the town centre of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire and, in direct response to the client brief, has been developed as a landmark for the community it serves. A key factor in the position of the architecture building project was to provide ease of access for both pedestrians and vehicles, integrating the building architecture project seamlessly into the surrounding community.
The new main entrance building architecture design contains a café, patient information centre, and administration centre. The modern building architecture and related exterior entrance courtyard provides a new public arrival point. The entrance building design project is an additional focal point within this courtyard and acts as the new centre for the whole of the facility. Modern architecture design building project expanded elsewhere on the site streamlines clinical functions in an effort to improve the quality of patient experience. These additions of building architecture design project include a specialist rehabilitation centre, physical therapy department and outpatient services centre.
