Shopping Pillow Terraces by OFIS Arhitekti
Posted in: Uncategorized
This shopping centre and apartment block by Slovenian architects OFIS Arhitekti is due to begin construction in Ljubljana, Slovenia, next year.
The seven-storey building will be wrapped in sweeping trellises made from layers of mesh.
Called Shopping Pillow Terraces, the building will have a passageway running through the first two floors that will connect a main thoroughfare on one side to a park on the other.
The first four storeys will accommodate shops and restaurants connected to an adjacent shopping mall, while the three above will be filled with apartments.
See all our stories about OFIS Arhitekti »
Here’s some more from the designers:
The complex is located in the heart of Ljubljana, between the park and main Ljubljana pedestrian commercial street. The program is a mixture of boutique shops, caffe and residences.
The street and the park will be connected with public passage perforating the building. Since the street and the park are in different levels the building has two ground floors connected with a passage.
Lower 4 floors are shops connected with a mall. Top three floors are reserved for apartments; partly also inside existing historical atrium. The building is formed in terraces between low-rise historical line in the park towards recent extension of the Post office on the border of the plot.
Terraces offer beautiful views towards the old city and the castle. Lower large terrace plateau is formed as open air caffee, higher terraces are designed as apartments. Teraces are enclosed with green pillows; organic layered metal mesh with implanted greenery inside.
Like the fashion also the building is changing through the season: fall winter appearance is covered in silver and sometimes covered in snow. On the other hand spring summer appearance is green and sometimes in flowers. Project will go on site in 2011.

 | Wilderness HeartBlack Mountain Il precedente ‘In the future’ puzzava così tanto di Led Zeppelin e Deep Purple che si pensava a un ritorno del rock dei 70 con i suoi chitarroni che devastavano tutto. Oggi ritroviamo i Black Mountain in uno stato di ‘transizione del suono’ che li vede sempre rifarsi con classe a quel periodo (let the spirit ride) ma anche strizzare l’occhio a un suono pop (the hair song), quindi al momento non c’è una dimensione precisa. Forse nemmeno loro sanno quale sarà la tappa finale del loro percorso musicale. Chiaramente alcuni li vedono come in procinto di finire in un buco nero e tanti saluti! Altri come il sottoscritto invece hanno fiutato una certa predisposizione di questa band verso la bella musica, quel suono epico e al contempo melodico che non può lasciare indifferenti. A vederli con le loro barbe, capelli incolti, vestiti chiaramente legati ai 70 sembrano degli hippie tardivi anche se arrivano da Vancouver, ma qui non c’è solo ‘apparenza’ c’è soprattutto ‘qualità’. VIDEO ‘The Hair Song’ |
 | Sleep ForeverCrocodiles Prova della maturità superata per la combo californiana denominata ‘Crocodiles‘. Già dormire per sempre non sarebbe affatto male soprattutto la mattina quando quella maledetta sveglia suona per sbatterci giù dal letto senza tanti complimenti. Il tutto potrebbe (per assurdo) passare in un istante se vi capita di mettere nel vostro lettore questo disco di matrice LO-FI o per alcuni SHIT-GAZE. E’ un ‘gioiellino’ post-estivo che sa tanto di spacemen 3, Jesus And Mary Chain e di certi beach boys. Uno dei punti di forza del disco è quel rimando ‘60 aggiornato ai nostri tempi. Così vorrei spostare la vostra attenzione su pezzi come ‘hearts of love’ (il pop secondo i crocodiles), ’stoned to death’ (california in acido), gli ingredienti ci sono a voi la scelta se assaggiare o meno. VIDEO ‘Hearts Of Love’ |
 | Mixed RaceTricky Sappiamo tutti chi è il personaggio in questione, giusto? Con i Massive Attack è stato uno dei pionieri di quel genere denominato ‘trip hop’. Oggi lo ritroviamo con questa nona prova della sua carriera musicale, a suo modo ‘consapevole’ di cosa vuol dire cantare ancora sotto l’effetto del trip hop nel 2010. Diciamo che il Tricky del ’secondo millenio’ è senza tensioni o almeno le espone in un modo più ’soffuso’. Al solito si circonda di vari personaggi per la messa in atto di ‘mixed race’, fuori dal giro martina topley bird si uniscono al nostro la singer irlandese Franky Riley, il vocalist giamaicano Terry Lynn e una delle mie guide spirituali ovvero Bobby Gillespie dei Primal Scream. Dei brani vi segnalo ‘kingston logic’ che è un tributo ai daft punk (technologic), i dialoghi uomo-donna in ‘ghetto stars’ e quel pezzo con innesti ‘arabi’ intitolato ‘hakim’. Tirando le somme questo è il solito buon disco di un personaggio ‘musicalmente integro’. VIDEO ‘Kingston Logic’ (live) |
