The November 2018 architecture category boasts an eclectic range of examples from the design-driven industry. The featured structures are stylish, sustainable and functional.
Firms have been focusing on delivering a contemporary feel to briefs, with an emphasis on modern aesthetic and eco-conscious interiors. GLA.Design's 'SIRI House' embraces this through a structure that has vegetative hits throughout. The home is described as a "life gallery."
Other companies, featured in the November 2018 architecture list, aim to solve social issues and crises through sustainable and affordable design. Madworkshop is collaborating with USC School of Architecture on a project that will support the homeless in LA.
