Five towers clad in 300,000 handmade bricks rise above a transparent glass base, giving the impression that heavy volumes are floating over the waterfront. Across their façades, 403 windows frame changing views of Copenhagen’s harbor and draw daylight into the aquatic spaces below.
The 5,800 sqm complex includes ten indoor and outdoor pools, including the Valley Pool, nestled between the towers for year-round swimming, and a 36°C onsen-inspired pool overlooking the harbor.

🚀Join us for AI-Powered Design Exploration: From Ideation to Visualization, a 2-day AI-driven architectural design workshop where participants explore the complete workflow from early-stage ideation to accurate architectural visualization.
🔗 Ready to join? Secure your seat and register through the link: paacademy.com/course/ai-powe…
✨ Led by Architect and Project Director at Adjaye Associates, Daeho Lee, the workshop covers precedent analysis, architectural element extraction, AI-generated mutation and variation, critical selection, Rhino-based visualization, material and lighting studies, contextual editing, and AI-assisted animation using Midjourney, Nano Banana Pro, and Kling.
Participants will develop an AI-assisted workflow for both architectural ideation and visualization using AI tools. You will learn how to read buildings and objects as collections of physical elements rather than simply as stylistic references, extracting characteristics such as massing, openings, terraces, recesses, and structural conditions.
📑 Topic: AI-Powered Design Exploration: From Ideation to Visualization
📅 Date: October 31 - November 1, 2026
🕓 Time: 14:00 - 18:00 GMT

📌 The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart transforms more than 140 years of automotive history into an architectural experience shaped by geometry, movement, and spatial continuity.
Designed by UNStudio and opened in 2006, the building is defined by a complex double-helix structure that organizes nine levels into two interconnected exhibition routes. Across 16,500 m², around 160 vehicles and more than 1,500 exhibits trace the evolution of the automobile, from its invention in 1886 to contemporary innovations.

The visitor journey begins at the uppermost level and unfolds through continuous ramps, open galleries, and intersecting spaces, connecting the museum’s architectural logic with its historical narrative. Here, circulation becomes more than a means of movement, it shapes how the collection is discovered and experienced.
