OTHER ArchDaily winners include many iconic buildings such as Apple Michigan Avenue by Foster+Partners and Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa by Heatherwick Studio.
The glass wall of the Apple store in Chicago breaks the boundary between inside and out and makes the building dissolve into its urban plaza. The Zeitz Museum in Cape Town used to be a grain silo but is now a cultural hub with 80 gallery spaces, reading rooms and other facilities.
Two educational projects are a highlight — the Children’s Village by Rosenbaum+Aleph Zero and 100 Classrooms for Refugee Children by Emergency Architecture & Human Rights.
The wooden Children’s Village in Djibouti in northeastern Africa is a learning space and also a home. It is a collaboration between designers and students. Hammocks, patios, reading rooms, plenty of interacting places give the students a sense of belonging.
The 100 Classrooms project for Syrian refugees across the border in Jordan, built using traditional techniques, gives more displaced people, both adults and children, access to education.
The expansion project of the Santa Fe de Bogota Foundation in Colombia by El Equipo de Mazzanti proves that architecture can affect people physically and mentally.
The architects said statistics showed that faster recovery of patients suffering infections and medical complications are attributed to natural lighting and contact with nature.
