SoftKill ProtoHouse is looking ugly and beautiful at the same time… and is intriguingly computer aided designed.

The BMW M1, 1978.
The BMW M1 was unveiled 30 years ago as the first car created independently by the then BMW Motorsport Division. It was a racing car which BMW customers could also drive on the road, a unique project which had to overcome some tricky administrative hurdles before getting off the ground. Up to this date, it is considered to be the one and only BMW supercar ever produced.
The M1 coupe was hand-built between 1978 and 1981 as a homologation special for sports car racing. The body was designed by Giugiaro, taking inspiration from the 1972 BMW Turbo show car. At the time of its launch, it was one of the fastest and most dynamic cars on the market. It featured a 277 horsepower 3.5-liter straight-six engine and could reach speeds in excess of 160 mph. The redline came at 7,000 rpm and the M1 was capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in 5.6 seconds.
Only 456 production M1s were built, making it one of BMW’s rarest models.

OBSERVATION TOWER ‘EUROMAST’
Rotterdam, 1958 | Curious Jacob Berend Bakema
Even better than what was actually built.
Bakema designed the 125-meter observation tower on the occasion of the first international horticulture exhibition “Floriade”, which was staged in Rotterdam in 1960. The Euromast was to be the exhibition’s major showpiece. The municipal council wanted to erect a structure that not only offered a view of the temporary exhibition in the Park, but, as a permanent monument, also reflected the pride of the city of Rotterdam.
Bakema devised a construction that was to serve not only as an observation tower but also as a meeting center. He based his idea for the structure on the Wolkenbügel projects designed by El Lissitzky in the 1920s. In the same way that the Wolkenbügels offered views of the new Greater Moscow, the Euromast was to offer views to the reconstructed city of Rotterdam. El Lissitzky’s idea was that the Wolkenbügels should house the offices of the USSR’s state planning bodies. Bakema envisaged a similar important role for the Euromast. The various spaces in the Euromast were to serve as conference rooms for public authorities.
The construction of the tower consists of four cantilevered boxes that fan out. They rest on columns and are stabilised by aluminium cables. These cabins offer a view of the various administrative areas. While discussing the problems of the port, the city and the region, administrators could thus observe the relevant areas.
The cabin on the first and lowest level offers a view of the port and the Park. The one on the second level overlooks the city of Rotterdam. The cabin on the third level looks over the lower course of the Rhine. The view from the cabin on the fourth level extends to the Delta Works. The small platform at the top of the tower is an observation point and has a radar and television installation. The observation tower’s design corresponds to the contours of the port. The columns allude to the ship’s masts, the anchor cables to the rigging, and the cabins to the crow’s nest and the bridge.
Bakema’s design for the Euromast was not realized. The municipal council preferred the design by H.A. Maaskant.

Dive into an underground world with what used to be one of the most beautiful subway stops in New York City. City Hall Station closed in 1945 but remains a New York secret. Stay on the train on the dowtown 6 at the Brooklyn Bridge City Hall stop, and your heart will pound with fear and excitement as you loop around to the other side of the tracks. See the images of what it once looked like, but you’ll have to take the ride yourself! Photos taken by John-Paul Palescandolo and Eric Kazmirek (thefineartphoto.net)

Michael‘s M-Velopes are somewhere between architecture, art and a shelter. They are transformable structures, you can choose how to open them, how much light and wind can get inside. You just have to stay there and relax. Michael research for new kind of living is full of energy and it will go even farther.
