Bumped into this little pier @littleislandnyc The elegant piles become planters of a beautifully landscaped public space.

Commendable design by @officialheatherwickstudio #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #park #design #publicspace #littleisland #nyc

In awe of the long awaited Gilder Centre at the @amnh in NY by @studiogang Feels like the inside of a dinosaur’s intricate ossicle bone structure. A really compelling space, filled with light and sensuous forms. Wanted to stay for hours longer! #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #museum #design #contemporary #studiogang #gildercenter #nyc

An honour to visit the United Nations’ HQ, through the generous hospitality of our amazing Ghanaian client, @senyo1981 . An impressive 1950’s complex led by Wallace Harrison, with interventions from LeCorbusier, Oscar Niemeyer, amongst other legendary architects. #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #unitednations #hq #modernist #masterpiece #nyc

Some of Viñoly’s latest projects in NY, always elegant, bold and virtuously proportioned. His legacy continues on, both through the ongoing work of the @rva_ny team and the Viñoly Foundation #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #timeless #legacy #rafaelvinoly #nyc

The unforgettable celebration of Rafael Viñoly’s life and work at his second home, @carnegiehall . The programme and performances were phenomenal, the Maene-Viñoly stunning piano definitely the highlight. Dearly missed.

Castell de Bellver and its curved ramparts, battlements, towers and gothic courtyard - as intriguing in plan as in its real expression and shear mass #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #heritage #fortress #mediterranean #gothic #castellbellver #palmademallorca #españa

The gorgeous Valdemossa, nestled in the Tramuntana mountain range #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #heritage #valdemossa #tramuntana #palmademallorca #españa

Moments in Palma de Mallorca - what an enchanting Mediterranean town. The impressive craft, embedded in the old and new. the texture and tonality of the local stone. The Catalan spirit and culture. We will be back very soon! #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #mediterranean #townscape #catalan #culture #palmademallorca #españa

This unique, elevated space overlooking the Mediterranean… framed by the arches of the flying buttresses. Their scale and spans are extraordinary. #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #cathedral #buttress #structure #gothic #laseu #palmademallorca #españa

Gaudí and Barceló at La Seu in Palma - what an absolute treat in this sacred space with one of the highest naves in Europe #architecture #arquitectura #arquitetura #cathedral #gaudi #barcelo #laseu #palmademallorca #españa
