Thinking through stone opens up a fresh perspective on construction culture (and the lack thereof), availability of local building materials and their untapped (economic) potential, and, ultimately, on building truly long-lasting buildings.
Islands have always inspired mystical tales. Can we also talk about distinctive island architecture and island space?
This issue of Maja takes the call for a moratorium on all new construction as its starting point.
The group exhibition, The Houses We Need at Estonian Museum of Architecture (11.06-21.11.2021) showcases 16 commissioned designs for houses ‘with the aim of ensuring a more beautiful, secure and peaceful future on planet Earth’.
Each public competition and design carries in itself both potential and responsibility to make a contribution to the spatial environment surrounding the building.
Maja spring 2021 edition is on sale in Estonia. For subscriptions please contact info at ajakirimaja.ee
