Paläon


 The ‘Paläon’ is a camouflage, a hyper-realistic abstraction of the landscape. The reflective facade of the Paläon reverberates the surrounding meadows and forests as well as the movements of the clouds in the sky. Through its pictorial form the research and experience center becomes one with its surrounding environment. Due to large-sized, sharp cuts in the facade, the Nils Holzer Kobler architects realized sprawling stunning views from the pit lignite mine to the nearby forest landscape and the grazing Przewalski’s horses. Designed by Holzer Kobler Architects the building is a ‘landmark’ in the rolling landscape that is reflected in the facade. Through the expressive architecture of the building it mediates between artificial and natural landscape.

With a minimalist and economical design the architects Raphaël Bétillon and Nicolas Dorval‐Bory solved a task of refurbishing a Paris appartement. Due to the lack of natural daylight and only confined space, the architects had to think outside the box. They decided to light the end of the ‘Appartement Spectral’ wit low-pressure sodium lighting (LPS) commonly found in street lightnig. Since the light shed by the LPS is monochromatic, it makes everything indistinguishable. The colours in the seleeping and showering area are basicaly nonexistent and only appear in different shades of grey and black.
Maybe this appartement is not to everyones liking, but the ingenious use of lighting alone makes it an architectual feast, worth taking a closer look.
