why "art code" ?

In architecture, the facade of a building is often the most important from a design standpoint, as it sets the tone for the rest of the building. Art code is now being used by a new generation of architecture designers to explore innovative ways of generating form and translating ideas in a wide range of creative architectural disciplines

The massive recreational facility features a colored cube construction with toned pixels that boast the local team's colors and create a strong contrast to the naturally orange landscape.
The roof in this case was also considered another facade, as many of the visitors arrive by plane than by land. From a distance, the facade texture creates a mirage-like effect and an iconic symbol for the small town.
The building rests on a concrete pad and steel frame system with highly insulated walls that maintain comfortable temperatures during extreme weather conditions, which also lightens the load on grid energy. the modular vitreous facade panels are easily fabricated and replaced, with integrated LED lights in the eastern entrance facade for night-time illumination. economical ply wall panels are stained to desired colors and make up the interior material, with a ventilated cavity behind assuring quality air control.

Beach + Howe Tower by big architects


A slender base forms the nine storey podium which vertically clears the road and traffic, ultimately widening into the 600 unit residential tower which hovers above the zone of pollution and noise. 
Shopping, retail and working spaces are accessible by the public plaza which pedetriansmay circulate freely under the large concrete supports. 
As the profile widens, the internal floor area is reclaimed and views to the ocean and surrounding mountains are revealed.

Conceptually the idea was developed by abstracting the gardens beyond into a vertical landscape of green zinc cantilevered boxes. 
Internally the boxes are finished in a shade of green to reinforce the idea of a landscape that is continuous from commercial road interface. On the commercial road facade, this idea is inverted as random ‘pockets’ of virtual landscape. 
The scale and perceived depths of the balconies and windows are manipulated, reducing the building mass and referencing the turrets and datums in the surrounding context.
