 Kebony cladded world's most beautiful power plant is situated deep within the mountains of Helgeland, Norway, a hiker's paradise just below the Arctic Circle. Along with extensive use of stone, slate and glass on the exterior of the building, Kebony wood is used in the building's cladding.

The Torre de Palma Wine Hotel in Portugal is renovated with sustainable Kebony wood & renewable energy sources and is welcoming guests to experience the ultimate wine tasting and adventure holiday.

hey good stuffs there: some conetxs to be used .. get inspir !

What Experts Are Saying "KPF has been using GenerativeComponents for some time and it forms a key component in the armory of the KPF Computational Geometry Group. Several of our most advanced projects employ GenerativeComponents as a tool for exploring thousands of options as well as the complex geometry to be used in final construction, all ultimately benefiting our clients. The nature of GenerativeComponents as a MicroStation extension means that, as a matter of course, our advanced designs can be interchanged with an extraordinary variety of software." - Lars Hesselgren, Kohn Pederson Fox "At Arup, we believe firmly in the principle of integrated design and integrated approaches to design - it's the only way to design complex buildings well. That's why we use GenerativeComponents. And we are not alone. We are starting to see young people coming through the system doing things we could only have dreamed about a few years ago." - J Parrish, Arup Sport "Simplicity seeds complexity. But in the search for form we need to add reference to the representation to articulate the result. GenerativeComponents enables us to find, explore, and regulate forms more rapidly, and to transmit these forms to fabrication more economically." - Hugh Whitehead, Foster + Partners "Grimshaw's offices all share a common DNA. We are a design-driven office, and all projects are informed by the specific location, program, and environmental forces. We employ GenerativeComponents to take in and embed the multitude of inputs and structure them using this common DNA, thus enabling us to rapidly explore a variety of environmentally appropriate solutions for each design project." - Shane Burger, Grimshaw Architects "Using GenerativeComponents, we can accelerate our iteration through design options and, in parallel, assess all concepts and dismiss those that would be uneconomic to construct. As a result, we get to spend more time fine-tuning the best solution.â

about next way to design ...

done but this is past ... !

many know about this site .. then this thema on materials is a very useful one.

Mr. Fresco's background includes industrial design and social engineering, as well as being a forerunner in the field of Human Factors. Mr. Fresco has worked as both designer and inventor in a wide range of fields spanning from biomedical innovations to totally integrated social systems. The Venus Project reflects the culmination of Jacque Fresco's life work: the integration of the best of science and technology into a comprehensive plan for a new society based on human and environmental concern. It is a global vision of hope for the future of humankind in our technological age.

but it seems sometimes in a 70s old project .. with no references to new architcture, next scripted one.. beautiful in some parts, unrealistic in others.. in fact this is an inspiring one. not a model... but to discuss on, it is a good beginning

about some extra research on urbanism... searching about potentials and any solution

videos form the institutfor advanced architecture of catalonia ... very upset works and studies !

for inspir and perhaps ... futurist projects ... sustainable ? green ? ... to look

de la brique geopolymère... même caractéristique que brique ordinaire (cuite à 1000C°) à la température de 450C° !!! ce brevet est dans le domaine public et nous devons le faire avancer ...

la brique LTGS consomme en moyenne huit fois moins d'énergie pour une résistance équivalente. Contrairement à une briqueterie traditionnelle, elle nécessite moins d'équipements et est moins chère à produire. Une briqueterie traditionnelle doit avoir une certaine taille avant d'être rentable, alors que la brique LTGS peut être produite par des petites briqueteries de village ou de petite ville avec moins d'équipements et de charges financiaires.

SOPP, the innovative student accommodation development located in Lillehammer, is hosting athletes of the Winter Youth Olympic Games from 12 - 21 February 2016. This will be the second ever Winter Youth Games. Durable Kebony wood has created a sustainable future for this accommodation and prospective students of Lillehammer.

RAND boats unveiled their latest fleet, RAND Picnic Boats, an electric motorboat that enables boating to be enjoyed noise and fume free. Available in two versions, a sport and a tiller steering option, RAND Picnic boats are built with sustainable, light-weight materials including Kebony wood.

Road reflective glass beads are a kind of fine glass sphere formed by melting glass sand (waste glass) at high temperatures. It is spherical under the microscope, colorless, transparent, and the refractive index is 1.5-1.64. Between 44 and 1400 microns in diameter. With many years of experience in the manufacturing of reflective road paint beads, We have mature solutions of glass beads for paint. The National standard of GT, BS6088, en1424/1423, and AASHTO guarantee the quality of our glass beads for road marking.
