UNI — a community of architects & designers
Where ideas graduate.
Publish your work, trade critique with designers worldwide, and compete in challenges that put it in front of juries.
Below: the latest work from the community, updating daily.
Dust of Life: A Thu Thiem Street Market That Turns an Amerasian Story of Abandonment Into Welcome
Folded blue canopies, modular timber stalls and a central dining room make a market whose plan is built around the act of coming together.
Interlacements: A Gallery Roofed in Strung Leaves That Paints With Interstitial Light
Dayana Ludlow's shortlisted Art-ade entry treats the gallery as an enclosed garden, filtering sun through foliage, slats and white frames.
Cloud Vally House: A Safe House That Lifts Itself Up So the Neighbourhood Can Move In Underneath
A raised residential block frees its ground plane for public life, treating community activity as a resource for the children who live above.
Open Art Gallery that promotes Communication: A Courtyard Gallery That Pushes Its Ateliers Outdoors
Hristo Stankushev's Art-ade winner pulls gabled ateliers out of a low white volume, turning the gaps between them into doors, plazas and sunken rooms.
The Grove: A Vietnamese Street Market Built Like a Mangrove, Roots First
Arching roots, overlapping sails and blocks of flowering trees turn a plaza into an argument for protecting the shoreline's most valuable plants.
