Dolmen, a forest folly by Space Encounters in Arnhem, blurs the boundary between architecture and landscape, merging sculptural form with ecological intelligence and quiet habitation.
At the Lechner Museum in Ingolstadt, Germany, the exhibition "Materie Stahl" reframes the legacy of Alf Lechner through a lens that feels both urgent and overdue.
Jamie McLellan’s Plane Lounge Chair for Resident merges sculpture with furniture, distilling mass and geometry into a quiet force of design built from solid timber and engineered elegance.
Alexander Gronsky’s Less Than One captures Russia’s most sparsely inhabited regions in wintry, unsettling quiet—where the landscape outlasts its people, and solitude becomes almost architectural.

From Thisispaper+ Member: In a quiet corner of Poland, pastry is being reimagined — not only as an edible craft, but as a spatial one. The new Kaiser Patisserie, conceived by ACOS + Studio Widoki Architects, is at once a working atelier and a professional training center — and perhaps most importantly, a quietly radical gesture in soft minimalism.
Behind the heavy doors of a former Royal Academy art building in Copenhagen, lies a space that feels more like a sanctuary than a design studio. Studio Oliver Gustav defies conventional categories.
