A few weeks ago I was commissioned to showcase another wonderful design by Metropole Architects. This location had the usual majestic cantilevers and floating planes we've come to expect from this amazing architectural firm but, due to it not being within a residential estate, the design boundaries of the architecture were pushed to the limits and the sophisticated result was … [Read more...]
