Today the sea is an intensely dark navy blue with the occasional whitecap and turquoise dapples closer to shore. It’s the afternoon after the night before (we’ll come back to this in a moment) and I’m looking out across the Aegean. For further.Kalimera! Kalispera!

Issue Architectural Portfolio Full Perspective On
Athens was a tiny bit chillier than hoped for our welcome drinks and Greece’s coronavirus rules were rather more cumbersome than elsewhere in the EU (don’t you dare go near that dancefloor young lady or shake your bum young man!). I don’t have enough distance to have a full perspective on how it all went but if the comments from delegates and speakers are a decent barometer then I think team Monocle did a pretty decent job – perhaps the best ever. A new e-book from Chicago-based Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture analyzes the embodied carbon and other attributes of nine housing types to uncover ideal residential densitiesthose that improve quality of life while minimizing their environmental impact.Given the Hines College of Architecture and Designs competitive admissions process and the limited number of spots available for incoming students, a portfolio.By now you’ll know that we’ve been in Athens for the sixth edition of our Quality of Life Conference and I think I’m having that odd, melancholic slump that hits after being in the thick of hosting a major event. A gentle breeze is rustling the tall grasses beyond the terrace, in the background there’s a mellow, jazzy station, and close to hand a chilled assyrtiko from Estate Argyros is helping to bring the past 48 hours into focus.The Carbon Issue With Housing’s Carbon Footprint, Density Matters.
After 10 minutes we found ourselves in a neighbourhood that could have easily been Damascus, Beirut or one of the street settings for the series Tehran (yes, Athens is the stunt double for the Iranian capital in the second season as well). After a jolly cocktail on the rooftop of Athens City Hall and a sparky 10-point urban manifesto from mayor Kostas Bakoyannis we set off into the night to find our second venue.One of the most alluring elements of Athens is its density and the scale of its residential buildings. At first I wasn’t sold on the idea (invading someone’s home, a space not made for 60 people, for a casual Thursday dinner the complexities that come with catering) but after seeing a few pics and being reminded who the owners were I changed my mind. Hannah has had a busy few months prepping for Athens with our Hellenic correspondent Daphne Karnezis and along the way they thought it would be more interesting to have our editors and speakers gather in a homey setting instead of a restaurant. The media conference in London is up next (see here) and then we’re looking at various get-togethers in Porto, St Moritz, Paris and maybe even Cape Town. Just when you thought you’d seen it allHannah is in charge of Monocle’s events and is already looking forward to a whole series of summits and shindigs over the coming weeks and months.
It features the studio’s growing portfolio of rental projects, from hanoks in Seoul to a farmhouse and caravan park on the southern island of Jeju. The lettings website, a discerning apartment-rental service for design fans, was launched in 2015 by the founders of the Seoul-based architecture firm Z-Lab: Park Jung-hyun, Noh Kyung-rok and Lee Sang-muk. This week: a Seoul firm that’s here to stay.Stayfolio is a property platform with a difference.
“Our guests have money to spend but they don’t just like luxury they want originality and design too,” says Noh. In return, they take a share of the profits. “It is both traditional and modern, and has magnificent potential.”The architects redesign and renovate the properties, which are often unused or second homes, and then take charge of the marketing, management and even mood – every address has its own fragrance and music playlist. “Seoul is a megacity with 10 million citizens,” says Lee Sang-muk.
In fact, Stayfolio has proved an effective billboard for the team’s architectural talents, attracting new commissions for the studio in turn.For more inspiring start-ups, tips, advice and provocations about making your passion your vocation pick up a copy of ‘The Monocle Book of Entrepreneurs’.
