One of our current residential projects - Reddington Road, London. The whole house has been underpinned, then the ground dug out from under to create a huge basement extension. The effect mid-build looks amazing...........

The Frightening Beauty Of Bunkers–





Approximately 1,500 bunkers were built during World War II along the French shores to forestall an Allied landing—“the Atlantic Wall.” Decommissioned after the Allied invasion of Normandy, this elaborate defense system now lies abandoned. At the age of 25, Paul Virilio stumbled upon these relics with his camera and began a study that would continue for 30 years. His 1975 book, Bunker Archeology, has recently been translated into English and reprinted by Princeton Architectural Press: an inquiry of war and its structures and a personal memoir of exploration, merging technical analysis with philosophical questioning.
Watch this space for Brinkworth's very own bunker in development......

FLW x LEGO !!
It's not clear whether or not this will be available outside the US yet. Never-the-less a fantastic extension of the lego brand. Look forward to seeing more.

Mental bikes likes.
Dekochari is typical Japanese phenomenon, deko is short for decoration and chari is slang for bike. Dekochari are actually the kids version of dekotora, which are decorated trucks. Satoshi Minakawa made these photos of these awesome vehicles.

Pandora
In a few decades our whole world economy has become reliant on the containerization of our supply lines.
Known the world over for its indestructible appearance and boxy look, the shipping container is one of the best known industrial archetypes.
This modular storage system is inspired by the wonderful colour mosaics that sprout to life in every harbor and container terminal the world around.
The individual pieces can be stacked and rotated around in endless (colour-) combinations, to create your personal container terminal for all domestic storage uses.

Damian Ortega
Damian Ortega, born in 1967 in Mexico City.
Along with Abraham Cruz-Villegas and Gabriel Kuri, he is one of the most prominent artists of the new Mexican generation. He first came to wider attention with his Cosmic Thing at the 50th Venice Biennale in 2003, consisting of a Volkswagen beetle dismantled and suspended from the ceiling, an ironic deconstruction of a cult object of Mexico's consumer society.
Damian Ortega began his career as a creator of political comic strips and his art has never departed from this keen sense of playfulness.
With a slightly irreverent approach, the artist parodies the purity of minimalist sculpture. His sculptures, photographs and actions often draw on "poor" materials and evoke potential evolution and continual change. A certain scepticism regarding the utopian forms of modern architecture and a pronounced taste for language games are likewise central to his creative approach.

ATOM Performance
Supernice.
ATOM is a performance by Monolake and Christopher Bauder for a matrix of 64 gas balloons, lights, and sound. You can see it tomorrow evening at Berghain in Berlin.
A room is filled with deep, evolving noises from a four-channel sound system. An eight-by-eight array of white, self-illuminated spheres floats in space like the atoms of a complex molecule.
Through variable positioning and illumination of each atom, a dynamic display sculpture comes into being, composed of physical objects, patterns of light, and synchronous rhythmic and textural sonic events. Change, sound, and movement converge into a larger form.
The height of the helium balloons is adjusted with a computer-controlled cable, whilst the internal illumination is accomplished using dimmable super-bright LEDs, creating a pixel in a warped 8×8 spatial matrix.
The sonic events, the patterns of light, and the movement of the balloons are manipulated in real time as a 45-60 minute-long performance.

stunning installation by Mexican artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer
Pulse Room, a sensor records the pulse of the public and converts it into light flashes shown by incandescent light bulbs. At any given time the room shows the heartbeat of the 100 most recent participants.
