Wolfsburg Cultural Center, Wolfsburg, Germany, 1962 designed by Alvar Aalto
One of the most distinct features of the Wolfsburg Cultural Center is its unique shape and façade. The design of the layout of the main section of the building is very geometric; it appears as if a series of hexagonal volumes have been pushed together to form the building. The façade is composted of white and blue Carrara marble, however this pattern of marble does not begin until the first floor. The entire ground floor recedes inwards towards the center of the building, creating a sheltered area underneath the first floor which has a very welcoming effect. -- ArchDaily

The Bridge, Bridgehampton, New York, USA, 2010 designed by Roger Ferris + Partners
The clubhouse is organized in bladelike forms like those of a turbine
wheel. Each “blade” contains a distinct function and frames a particular
view, and this makes the building both highly efficient and
site-specific. --

Rooms that Follow the Scenery, Karuizawa Saku-gun, Nagano, Japan designed by ON design partners
The windows are angles at 15. The deepness of the sun light changes by time. The gaps become a place for people to stay. You wake up in the room where the sun light comes in the morning, and
take a nap and read books at a warm place full of sun light. Activities
lap over with the scenery under the time line of magnificent nature. A
scenery of life where it is only possible here appears. --
