Shifting perspectives 🖤
This student apartment building in Tampere challenges common perceptions and contradicting expectations. Tampere is one of Finland’s most student-dense cities – nearly 1 in 6 residents is studying. The demand for housing is growing.

Completed in summer 2025, Pinninkatu 47, also known as Willa Amanda, provides 101 modern apartments for students. Limited space required precise planning and an efficient construction strategy. The solution: a hybrid structural system with a high degree of prefabricated building components, such as modular bathrooms.
Its elegant dark shell vertically clad in Actua Black Titanium roof tiles with their clean, linear appearance create a structured façade that softens the building’s geometry while giving it a strong urban identity. These durable ceramic tiles are highly resistant to wind and frost, making them particularly suited to the Nordic climate. Beyond housing, the project aligns with environmental ambitions through its pursuit of sustainability certification, integrating material efficiency and prefabrication. Pinninkatu 47 suggests a new direction for urban student housing and it proofs, that innovation is not always about inventing new materials, but about seeing proven ones differently.

History cast in clay 🧱
With a history of clay and ceramic production, Tegelen in The Netherlands managed to visually integrate its cultural and historical identity into its new town centre. Known for generations for its use of clay and ceramic products, the city holds on to its tradition and redeveloped public space.

The redesign of the old town centre, stretching from Wilhelminaplein at the foot of St. Martins Church along Kerkstraat to Raadhuisplein, places paving at the centre of the narrative. Completed in 2025, the design transformed streets and squares into a cityscape that respectfully reflects its history.
Using a special mix of pavers, Bruno DF, Rosa waterstruck DF and Zonnebloem waterstruck DF, the landscape architects created a unique identity to the project.

A particularly charming detail: former clay wagons, locally remembered as Kageltjes, have been transformed into playful seating elements along the planted rail tracks.
The paving acts as climate-resilient infrastructure, historical narrative, and a stage for everyday urban life. "Tegelen now has a city centre that will last for many years to come”, says Thor Hendriks, partner and landscape architect at Burobol.

Dynamic student living in Frederiksberg 🏙️🧱
An architectural landmark along Åboulevard: the Harmonikahusene, also known as the Accordion Houses, connect the city and the campus, creating a centrepiece for the city of Frederiksberg. Appearing almost like an accordion playing across the cityscape, the architects played with brick, metal and vegetation and matched the colour scheme to the city’s red and green palette.
Paved with Juist bricks, the roof terraces add a grounded character to the outdoor areas on the highest level, whereas the base is clad with hand-sanded EW3521 Blauwrood bricks supplied by Egernsund Wienerberger A/S.
Consultant René Lemming explains: “The base forms the architectural foundation and sets the tone for the rest of the building.”
The tactile quality of the brick creates a human dimension at street level, anchoring the façade and creating a visual bridge between contemporary design and historic context.

Echoing the world of children – a playful terracotta transformation in Paris 👩🏻‍🏫🧱
What used to be a modest 1980s school campus now shines in brilliant white with a striking colour pattern. Studio Hybride Architectes transformed the La Lanterne School in Évry-Courcouronnes using brick materials, solving functional challenges while simultaneously redefining its architectural identity.

At La Lanterne School, brick was used to reorganize perception, strengthen the spirit of learning, and improve student participation. Through the intelligent use of material, an aging school has gained both a rejuvenated coherence and an updated character. Completed in 2025, the project demonstrates how terracotta can move beyond tradition into a contemporary role.

Knitted brick curtain - an expressive extension of the Student Association in Trondheim 🧶🧱
The headquarters of the Student Association Trondheim is not only the organizational centre of the association, but the cultural heart of the local student’s life.
Commonly known as “Samfundet”, the red round headquarters were built in 1929, when Trondheim had around 700 students. With the extension in 2024, the capacity of the building increased from 2,450 to 3,870 people.
Together with their team the architects Ida Midbøe Rognstad and Jon Morten Breidablik of Eggen Arkitekter wanted “to build a bridge between the old and the new, as brick has a long tradition as a building material in Trondheim”. With Iltarusko Retro, “a winered extruded brick with a natural, vibrant structure, the façade alternates between warm red and winered shades”. Besides the colour and the pattern, they needed a brick that works well in an open grid, where it is exposed for water to all sides. A strong and resistant material that handles frost well.
With its location in Elgeseter in Trondheim, the Society has many brick buildings in its vicinity. The architecture of the extension of Studentersamfundet “complements the existing building while also showing respect for it”.

A courtyard for all 🌳✨
Amidst the dense urban fabric of Odense, a new housing complex offers something unexpected: a warm, green courtyard, designed as a refuge from city life. The three-storey housing complex encloses a courtyard that functions as a social space for the building’s 84 residential units. Modern urban living with a strong focus on sustainability, community and material quality.

The name Kongens Karré refers to the site’s history. According to old maps, a building called Kongehuset – King’s house – once stood here. For the courtyard, the architects selected the paving brick Odense med Kul (Odense with coal): a deliberate reference to the city’s most common brick – named after Odense itself. Its texture and its warm yellow tone with subtly burnt edges can be found throughout the city.

Restored to full majesty 🏰✨
Built on the ruins of a medieval fortress, the 18th century Château Ray-sur-Saône is a remarkable site. Owned for almost 900 years by 29 generations of the same family before being bequeathed to the state.
After the takeover by the department of Haute-Saône, the plan was an extensive set of renovations, beginning with replacing the historic roof.

In order to preserve the original spirit of the building, the new roof was covered with over 80,000 locally manufactured Alèonard tiles in four different colours. Three were selected from the Monuments Historiques collection: Ocré Lichen, Noir de Vigne and Vert de Lichen, while the final style was a glazed Opale de feu tile. Additionally, high-quality tiles recovered from the existing roof were integrated into the new design. The result retains the castle roof’s irregular curves and non-continuous lines, while delivering a coherent and historically accurate overall appearance. The roofing project was later recognized with an Aléonard Trophy in the Historic Monuments category.

Timeless innovation in white. 🏨
At the Red Cross Hospital in Beverwijk, a new intervention centre softly reshapes the hospital’s front edge – combining architectural precision, material innovation, and the building’s roots.
Built at the front of the existing hospital complex, a new three-storey addition houses the so-called ‘hot floors’: emergency care and diagnostics on the ground floor, radiology on the first floor, and operating rooms on the second floor. Designed by architect Sabine Berndsen, the new building strengthens the site’s identity while giving it a touch of modernity.
A transparent glass façade and a wooden canopy around the entrance creates an inviting, open atmosphere, while its most eye-catching feature is the façade: covered in customized white glazed brick slips in unique shapes and sizes, it resembles the bright façade of the existing building.

Creating environments for children is a critical challenge that requires architects to consider many different perspectives. Anna Kovacs, lead architect for schools and housing at Archus, recognises the responsibility that comes with it: "The child’s perspective is the starting point for what we create. All children are different and have different needs and circumstances. At Archus, we have a very long history of designing learning environments. A school is not only a place for learning, but also for play and recreation, where staff should be able to easily adapt the day and the lessons to children’s needs.", she explains.
