Fisher House, Hatboro, Pennsylvania, USA, 1967 designed by Louis I. Kahn
Characterized by its dual cubic volumes, stone foundation and detailed
cypress cladding, the Fisher house stands as a clear statement of how
Kahn was working at the time and how his work differed from that of his
contemporaries. In the Fisher House, Kahn eschews the linearity of the
modern plan and focuses on a simple geometry, allowing the cubes to
provide a separation of public and private space. --

Casa Nº1 en Curacavi, Curacaví, Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile, 2012 designed by Felipe Combeau + Pablo Alfaro
It is a 14×14 m square that contains the entire program in a single level. ....a pass through the square in order to establish a clear way to enter and
exit the house and internally separate the public areas from the
private ones. This operation allows the box to break and make the
outside enough permeable. --

City in the City, 211 18 Malmö, Sweden, 2015 designed by Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects
The building consists of cubic areas that are twisted and given
different sizes to match the directions and heights of buildings in the
surrounding city. The different functions of the building are organised as separate
elements to resemble a small city. The lobby becomes the street, which
runs through the entire ground floor and ties everything together. Like
medieval cities, which had curved, narrow streets organised around
plazas and squares, the lobby is designed to form small gathering places
and recesses where visitors can stop, sit and enjoy the view of the
canal and the park. --
