Restaurant on the tree in Okinawa

Purely decorative follies do not spring up like trees, so here is a functional folly which has done just that – the Okinawa tree house which is poised in a banyan tree (or maybe it is a gajumaru tree). Whatever. The tree is in fact concrete.
Back in the late nineteenth century the French were making trees out of cement and a good example of has survived at Oakworth Park in Yorkshire. But I have not seen such a bizarre and impressive modern version as this before.
This treehouse is a restaurant, serving Asian food. It is located on Highway 58 at the entrance to Onoyama Park in southern Japan where it overlooks the ocean. Visitors ascend via a lift inside the trunk.

Towering Green Magic: Spectacular Eco-Structures to compliment Italian beaches!

Not many across the globe would be very familiar with a place called Rimini and if you happen to live outside Europe or even in Europe, it is hard to fault you about your ignorance in this regard. Quite honestly, Rimini was not a name on my ‘Places to visit’ list until now. But considering the fact that it is getting a magnificent green makeover, maybe Rimini is a place I would go to in Italy which is already blessed with such immense heritage and glorious history. The new venture by Foster + Partners is sure to put Rimini on world map for being a model beach destination that is pristine clean!

Colossal Eco-House Leaves Zero Carbon Footprint In Spain

Guess with so many eco-houses and eco-towns spurting in many corners of the world, it wouldn’t be late before our whole planet can be dubbed as eco-earth! Latest to crop up on the trends of eco-houses is the Eco House in Spain. This good-looking dwelling it aims to be the first zero carbon footprint home in Andalusia. Spread over 7,000 square feet, it is built with two-thirds less waste than traditional models and operates 80% more efficiently than similar sized home. However the most notable and green feature of this building is the solar roof that sits wing-like above the structure. The position of the angle holds the solar panels in the right position to maximize energy capture while also hiding them from view. Though this aspect aims to make the best of the heat from sun, at the same time, the shape also allows less heat transmitted into the house as the space between the two rooflines allows air to pass over the building adding to the cooling effect. Roll over for stunning images and fall in love with this green castle…..

Callebaut Architectures : Geneva 2020

For our second installment of Vincent Callebaut’s work, we bring you his Geneva 2020 masterplan – the ‘Landscript’ project. The masterplan is for a [roughly] 220 hectares[about 2.2 square kilometers] area on the outskirts of the city that is currently used for industrial purposes – and therefore is in need of a green shift.
The goal of the project is described by Callebaut as ‘a minimum of free spaces for a maximum of dual spaces’, in the hopes of creating as many multi purpose spaces as possible – in order to reduce building footprints/impact on the surrounding environment. This newly created landscape, which would house 100,000 new city dwellers, ’superimposes’ itself over the preexisting industrial infrastructure [trains, roads, etc] – further diminishing it’s impact.

ACROS Fukuoka: The serene green roof of Japan!

You must have heard about the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and if you haven’t then I suggest a little peak in to the ancient wonders of the world. While building a structure like that might have been an extraordinary architectural achievement in those times, it probably is a lot les difficult today. With the world’s leading architects planning the future agriculture on spectaculargreen skyscrapers, hanging fields might soon be a common sight (Although not that soon). Here is another example of making sure that green goodness spreads and how it can spread not just horizontally but also vertically!
