According to Henderson Land, its design was conceptualised as a **bridge that unifies the surrounding neighbourhoods and the harbour**. > "Centred on a powerful concept of 'the bridge', Central Yards is an **iconic groundscraper** spanning approximately 400 meters along Victoria Harbour, forming Central's longest architecture and a new horizontal skyline," the developer said. > "Central Yards is defined by its **unprecedented scale of open space** and its commitment to people‑centric, biophilic urban design," it added.  ## Architectural Features and Spaces Renders of the proposal reveal a series of **soft-edged, glazed volumes**, connected by raised walkways shrouded in lush greenery. Lofty openings will carve through the volumes to form sheltered terraces that double as event spaces on the upper floors. At ground level, outdoor spaces will wrap around a promenade of "purpose-designed" stores that contribute to the project's **83,600 square metres of retail space**. Contained within the building will be **65,000 square metres of office and ancillary space**, which, according to Henderson Land, will feature the **largest office floor in Hong Kong's Central Business District**. Other spaces include a **1,100-seat theatre** fronted by a dynamic, reflective facade.  ## Green Spaces and Sustainability Alongside its interior programmes, Central Yards will have a **sky garden extending 300 metres across the roof**. Meanwhile, at the building's front, a pair of terraces will serve as al-fresco dining areas overlooking the adjacent harbour. According to the developer, Central Yards sets **new sustainability benchmarks in Hong Kong** and has "registered for the highest standards from nine of the world's most respected green and smart building certifications".  ## Project Timeline The project's first phase is set to begin in **2027**, followed by a second phase in **2032**. Another groundscraper to have recently hit headlines is Google's upcoming office in King's Cross, London, designed by BIG and Heatherwick Studio. It was recently reported that urban foxes were inhabiting its rooftop gardens. *The renders are courtesy of Henderson Land.*]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>architecture</category> <category>groundscraper</category> <category>hongkong</category> <category>sustainability</category> <category>biophilic</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/11/central-yards-groundscaper-hong-kong-hero_dezeen_2364_col_1-852x479.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[How Socialist Infographics Shaped Pop Music and Modern Design]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/how-socialist-infographics-shaped-pop-music-and-modern-design</link> <guid>how-socialist-infographics-shaped-pop-music-and-modern-design</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 19 Nov 2025 19:00:26 GMT</pubDate> <description>< *Photograph: Otto and Marie Neurath Isotype Collection, University of Reading* ## From Socialist Ideals to Pop Culture At that point, his **Vienna Method of Pictorial Statistics** had relatively little impact in the UK beyond providing simplified imagery to leftist film-maker Paul Rotha's public information shorts. Neurath's "visual autobiography" had been shelved by publishers who probably failed to follow the ambitious arc of its title, "From Hieroglyphics to Isotype." This unpublished tome – which remained so until 2010 – outlined his democratising vision for overcoming educational class divides, crystallised in the powerful slogan: **"Words divide, pictures unite."** This harked back to the **socialist spirit of interwar 'Red Vienna'**, seemingly at odds with capitalist postwar Anglo-American pop culture. Yet Neurath's enthusiasm for modern reproduction methods corresponded perfectly with pop as mass-manufactured art without a unique original. Just as advertising slogans or pop songs aim for instant appeal, Neurath demanded images that **"show the most important thing about the object at first glance."** <iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/gp_Du6uO9V4?wmode=opaque&feature=oembed" title="Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Isotype" height="480" width="854" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> ## The Artistic Legacy and Modern Applications In retrospect, his thoughtful semiotics anticipated much of **pop art**. While pop music follows hedonistic principles, Neurath's aims went far beyond utilitarian. As a key figure in Vienna's social housing programme, he placed **"happiness"** above practical advantages of typification, stating that "the optimal technical solution by no means always coincides with the greatest happiness." Neurath was also enamoured with new technology, championing fellow exile Wolja Saraga's Saraga-Generator – an early electronic instrument akin to the theremin – and predicting creation of an artificial **"Isotype voice"** for future documentary films. This technological foresight explains why in 2017, UK synthpop duo **Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark** – who used synthesised speech as far back as 1983's Dazzle Ships – released a track called **Isotype**. The song celebrated Neurath's "fucking genius," according to singer Andy McCluskey.  *Photograph: Alicia Canter/The Guardian* Both McCluskey and graphic designer **Peter Saville** – who fashioned OMD's early album aesthetics and Factory Records' corporate identity – discovered Neurath's method in the early 1980s. To them, the de-ornamentalised style of Isotype – mostly designed by Neurath's artist **Gerd Arntz** – perfectly pre-empted the **graphic asceticism of the post-punk era**. "We liked the idea of reducing things to the minimum and still getting the point across," says McCluskey. "We had both grown up with **Kraftwerk's Autobahn album**, which in its later guise was the simple Isotype of the autobahn sign with the two highways and the bridge on a blue background." ## Contemporary Relevance and Critical Perspectives However, McCluskey expresses ambivalence about Neurath's proto-pop imagery. "What kind of worried me was one of Otto Neurath's phrases: 'To remember simple pictures is better than to forget accurate figures,'" he says. "Originally that would have been a mantra I adored. But it's also a scary predictor of the world we live in now, in terms of soundbites and our limited capacity to understand. Doesn't it sound like Donald Trump's whole political mantra?"  The video for OMD's Neurath tribute is a moving mandala of isotypes by German artist Henning M Lederer, featured prominently in "Wissen für alle: Isotype" ("Knowledge for all"), a new exhibition on Neurath's work and legacy at Wien Museum in Vienna. Featuring original posters designed for Neurath's mass-reproducible "museums of the future," this compact but effective display brims with the **socialist utopian energy** that coursed through Vienna before Austro-fascism and the Nazi regime. What might have seemed like nostalgia years ago now feels like a **rediscovered manual for resistance** – a useful reminder of how leftwing politics tackled intellectual snobbery to make itself understood.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>isotype</category> <category>visualcommunication</category> <category>graphicdesign</category> <category>popmusic</category> <category>designhistory</category> <enclosure url="https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/62b9629d646ca53cb5356579e281bb70c28a01f5/118_329_2329_1864/master/2329.jpg?width=1200&height=630&quality=85&auto=format&fit=crop&precrop=40:21,offset-x50,offset-y0&overlay-align=bottom%2Cleft&overlay-width=100p&overlay-base64=L2ltZy9zdGF0aWMvb3ZlcmxheXMvdGctZGVmYXVsdC5wbmc&enable=upscale&s=dff93f5b8f9815c22fb1123036dd16a3" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Discover How Rammed Earth Walls Are Revolutionizing Community Design in Ghana]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/discover-how-rammed-earth-walls-are-revolutionizing-community-design-in-ghana</link> <guid>discover-how-rammed-earth-walls-are-revolutionizing-community-design-in-ghana</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 17 Nov 2025 19:00:23 GMT</pubDate> <description>< DeRoche Projects designed it as a "**platform for community, mentorship, and movement**" that offers a "new model for shared civic life." The architecture is deliberately open-ended, where lines between sport, gathering, learning, and rest are blurred. "It's in the court, the shaded walkways, and lush vegetation where life emerges, shaped not by a fixed program but by the people who use it," studio founder Glenn DeRoche explained. ## Flexible Community Spaces Backyard Community Club opens up from a street-facing entrance to a paved walkway that doubles as a **flexible space for community activities**. Flanking the walkway are plots of the 230-square-metre sustenance garden, planted with over 20 species of edible and medicinal plants.  From here, visitors can access the tennis court, which is demarcated by the angular rammed-earth walls and designed to double as a flexible community space. ## Innovative Material Approach DeRoche Projects chose **rammed earth** to enclose the courts to celebrate **local, low-carbon materials**. The walls have been partly finished in clay and lined with a built-in bench that offers shaded seating for spectators.  According to the studio, this is **"Ghana's first project using a precast rammed earth system"** – a method that reimagines the ancient, clay-based material for "contemporary, scalable use." While rammed earth can be constructed in its raw form, in this project the material has been stabilized with cement, though the quantity was minimized to just three percent of the total material mix. ## Supporting Infrastructure A block at the back of the site contains ancillary spaces including changing rooms, showers, and toilets. This low-lying volume is complemented by sunken seating at its front and an open-air courtyard at its side entrance. Other smaller volumes serve as storage space to support the facility's programs.  "Our approach embraces **locally sourced materials rooted in tradition**, while exploring innovative strategies to create a resilient and forward-looking built environment," DeRoche said. "DeRoche Projects is advancing innovative methods of precasting rammed earth at scale, refining the material's structural and environmental potential while maintaining its tactile and vernacular richness."  ]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>rammedearth</category> <category>communitydesign</category> <category>sustainablearchitecture</category> <category>ghanadesign</category> <category>publicspaces</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/11/deroche-projects-backyard-community-club-accra-hero_dezeen_2364_col_0.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[7 Bold Bathroom Designs That Break All the Rules with Contrasting Materials]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/7-bold-bathroom-designs-that-break-all-the-rules-with-contrasting-materials</link> <guid>7-bold-bathroom-designs-that-break-all-the-rules-with-contrasting-materials</guid> <pubDate>Sat, 15 Nov 2025 19:00:24 GMT</pubDate> <description>< Glossy brown floorboards contrast with a clean **stainless steel** shell wrapping around an antique bathtub salvaged from a New York City tenement building. ## OL6, Belgium, by Jan Lefevere  Bubblegum-blue flooring from the original 1960s dental practice facade contrasts with a bath featuring dimensional stained **plywood** side panels. ## Curciu Guesthouse, Romania, by Modul 28  Pale timber with natural grain contrasts with **corrugated yellow metal** panels lining the shower interior in this church rectory conversion. ## House of Three Patios, Spain, by Twobo Arquitectura  Roughly-finished **concrete** walls juxtapose against a sleek stainless steel sink, completed by three different tile types for an intentionally mismatched aesthetic. ## Vipp Townhouse, France, by Julie Cloos Mølsgaard  Conventional wooden floorboards pair with distinctive red **marble** fittings, including a ring-shaped shower base with striated rose-and-grey coloring. ## Tembo Tembo Lodge, South Africa, by Studio Asaï  Dark green walls, wooden panels, and a stone sink create an earthy conjunction, with natural stripes appearing in both the marble basin and wood grain. ## Primrose Hill Townhouse, UK, by Studio Hagen Hall  **Cork** tiles cover the floor and bathtub sides, contrasting with a baby pink curtain and block peach-colored cabinets in this 1970s Californian modernism-inspired space.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>bathroom</category> <category>materials</category> <category>contrast</category> <category>interior</category> <category>design</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/11/vipp-lagrasse-townhouse_dezeen_2364_col_8.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[How a 50-Meter Skylight Transformed This Japanese Office Into a Light-Filled Community Hub]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/how-a-50-meter-skylight-transformed-this-japanese-office-into-a-light-filled-community-hub</link> <guid>how-a-50-meter-skylight-transformed-this-japanese-office-into-a-light-filled-community-hub</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 14 Nov 2025 19:00:26 GMT</pubDate> <description>< ## Redefining Japanese Work Environments Wataru Architects principal Wataru Sato explained the project's ambitious vision: "**The project aims to redefine the values of working environments in Japan**, starting from the local context. This integration embraces the surrounding natural landscape and fosters communication among employees, their families and the broader community." ## Architectural Innovation Through Light and Space The architects retained most of the building's **prefabricated steel structure** but made a bold move by splitting it into two long, narrow halves - a design choice that nods to the valley on either side of the nearby Yoshino River.  At the heart of the transformation lies the **central atrium** topped by that continuous skylight, which floods the interior with natural daylight. This luminous void connects the ground and first floors, allowing for **natural ventilation** and completely transforming what was previously a dark, disconnected layout. "The existing building has been transformed by a luminous void that draws daylight and a breeze deep into the interior," Sato described. "As the atrium spans the full depth of the building, airflow is evenly dispensed, delivering a gentle breeze to every corner." ## Thoughtful Material Palette and Greenery The interior scheme embraces a **pared-back aesthetic** that combines original tiling with plywood panels and neutral finishes. Strategic pops of color come from red-painted beams and abundant greenery, including a stunning **seven-metre-high Benjamin tree** at the center of the plan.  "The palette embraces low-contrast tones, blending diverse textures and layered paint hues to create depth," Sato noted. ## Community-Focused Design Approach Perhaps most innovative is how the ground floor functions as a **public space** where employees can work while remaining open to families and community members. This blurring of boundaries between work and community life represents a significant shift in Japanese office culture.  ## Sustainable Design Strategies Environmental responsibility was central to the project. The studio prioritized **reusing the existing structure and finishes** while maximizing natural light and ventilation to reduce energy consumption. "The design maximizes natural light and ventilation, eliminating the need for daytime lighting and reducing air conditioning depending on the seasons," Sato emphasized. ## Exterior Enhancements The building's entrance features a striking **five-metre cantilevered canopy**, while the facade has been updated with operable glass sashes to invite airflow. The surrounding landscape has been transformed into a community park complete with layered vegetation and an oversized 3D-printed vase.  ## Industry Recognition The Kitaoka Group office headquarters has been **shortlisted in the small workplace project category of the Dezeen Awards 2025**, placing it among other innovative projects like an experimental whisky lab by Barthélémy Grino and JSa's self-designed studio in a Mexican factory.   ]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>architecture</category> <category>officedesign</category> <category>renovation</category> <category>sustainability</category> <category>japan</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/11/kitaoka-group-office-wataru-architects-renovation-mima-city-japan-architecture_2364_col_11-HERO.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> </channel> </rss>
