Projects expected to be completed in 2022,
At the beginning of this year, we will take a look at the projects expected to be completed in 2022, as the projects are divided between cultural, commercial and recreational.
Project designs are located across five continents, many of which have been under construction for several years.
Designed across a wide range of scales.
These designs represent a mixture of interconnected landscapes, museums, and new skyscrapers.
A number of projects that opened this year had construction schedules, shaped by the availability of resources and business issues related to the global pandemic.
Meanwhile, there are also projects that are rapidly progressing and whose construction shows the range of building conditions around the world.
Drawing from diverse climates and physical styles, these projects reflect design and construction through a global lens.
Taipei Center for the Performing Arts
OMA’s Taipei Performing Arts Center (TPAC) in Taiwan is nearing completion, with three theaters.
Each theater operates independently of the other, as the OMA scheme seeks to break away from the traditional consensus of theatrical arts centers.
This is simply because it has a large auditorium, a medium-sized theater and a small-sized black box.
The compact shape allows for several “faces” defined by the single stage protruding from the central cube.
Art Gallery of New South Wales
SANAA Architecture Tokyo has made a new addition to the Art Gallery of New South Wales (AGNSW) in Sydney.
To be the company’s first building in Australia, the project will transform a major art and communication museum,
Through a public outdoor art garden overlooking Sydney Harbour.
The new building has been designed to contrast with the neoclassical building.
The 19th-century exhibit is in the gallery as a light, transparent, and open-topped addition.
Sao Paulo Rosewood Tower
In 2016 Jean Nouvel revealed the design of his 22-storey tower project, located near Avenida Paulista in São Paulo.
Dubbed the “Rosewood Tower”, the skyscraper is part of Cidade Matarazzo, a 27,000 square meter site containing historic buildings.
These buildings once made up the Filomena Matarazzo Maternity Hospital, a listed heritage site.
The Allard Group is restoring the buildings and creating a cultural centre, of which the new Nouvel Tower will be a central component.
The Nouvel Tower was designed to contain a hotel as well as residential units, as a vertical continuation of the local landscape.
Abrahamic Family House
Adjaye Associates won the The Abrahamic Family House competition in Abu Dhabi,
It is a historical project that includes 3 religions in one space.
Where a mosque, a synagogue and a church will be established,
commissioned by the Higher Committee for Human Fraternity,
and the idea of the project is the first of its kind.
3D printed houses
Home builder Lennar has teamed up with ICON building technology and BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group to build the largest community of 3D-printed homes to date.
Expected to begin in 2022, the 100-home neighborhood in Austin will combine innovative robotics from ICON,
advanced software and materials with BIG designs.
The project comes after a shortage of labor and materials has made home ownership out of the reach of many American families.
With nearly 5.5 million shortfalls of single family homes across the country.
The valley in the Zuidas business district of Amsterdam
Landscape architect “House Adolf” designed the valley, using a landscape of stone terraces,
large windows and balconies covered with dense planting.
Where the valley brings much-needed green spaces into Amsterdam’s Zuidas business district,
The 75,000 square meter mixed-use development has been designed by EDGE Technologies.
The valley contains apartments, shops, offices, cultural institutes and a creative center.
It is highlighted by a publicly accessible “wadi floor” located on the building’s podium, on the fourth and fifth floors.
Studio City
The Hollywood-inspired Studio City Resort is located in the Cotai district of Macau,
next to the Lotus Bridge crossing with mainland China.
It has welcomed guests and visitors to the city since 2015, and in 2017 the Zaha Hadid Company was selected to expand the resort.
The company’s engineers have designed Studio City Phase 2, with new entertainment,
leisure and hospitality facilities including one of Asia’s largest indoor and outdoor water parks and a six-screen cineplex,
Along with spacious spaces for conferences and exhibitions.
The Grand Egyptian Museum
The competition for a project to design one of the largest museums in the world,
Grand Egyptian Museum, attracted nearly 2,000 entries from 83 countries.
Where the Heneghan Peng design on a desert plateau adjacent to the Pyramids of Giza and Cairo will be the largest single collection of Egyptian artifacts.
At 100,000 square metres, it will include extensive exhibition space, conference facilities,
libraries and research facilities as well as a dedicated public programming space.
