PRODUCT LIBRARY
treading lightly on the landscape, the building cantilevers out 27 meters to a point 18 meters above the terrain below.
franck bohbot traveled to richard neutra's VDL research house II and documented it, capturing two generations of architectural experimentation.

the micro-hotel room is enclosed by a tiny topography of stepping terraces.
the architects say that the building, and the activity that takes place within it, is meant to transform the way in which buildings are designed, engineered, and built.

amazing
it’s a really nice form and looks beautiful but feels like spaces are not that exciting.
i like the fact that the facade looks similar with Seattle Public Library :p it’s like a family of libraries all around the world :)) one beautifuly ugly, one beautifuly beautiful.
i feel like the floorplates could’ve been more interesting, more than just “contour, 3000mm” in rhino?!
hope i will be wrong when it’s built and it will have nicer spaces than these representations. right now it feels a little bit like an airport to me.
first image shows a little bit transparency, i’m hoping that kind of suprises with daylight!
