Current skryscrapers are analysed mostly as single sculpturistic objects  without the understanding and notion of looking at dense city centers as groups of urban vertical settlements . This study for a Chinese city  was focused on examining their possible solar and view relation with liberated ground floors or carved facades,

A lot of major companies don't have a dynamic but a fixed rate for electricity costs. If only the excess of generated power could be stored during night time it could be kept in Lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage Systems. Later it might be used internally on site or externally when combined with city grids. The outlook of these power stations could be quite visually appealing with green walls and an infographic touch screen window that displays important information about the sustainable use of electricity in the cities. We have prepared a showcase project for a technological  enterprise with storages located in gas stations, which here could operate efficiently as a testing ground.

FILLING STATIONS OF THE FUTURE

Gas Stations are one of the most popular structures in the World visible on almost every corner in every city, small town or connecting highway. So how is it possible that when it comes to discussing the future of urban mobility and the upcoming electric car revolution nobody  focuses on the buildings and places that would service this transtion? We should definetly start to think about them as adaptable structures which are ment to be devoted to the close future but at the moment would still function as usual as no one knows exactly when the time will be right for the big change in the way we commute. Another important issue would be the environmental friendly aspect when theses service stations could become green city utilities with a focus not on only one type of natural resource but also many other. As a results of this approach a series of concept projects for various locations were prepared.

With record breaking warm temperatures in Scandinavia, fires at the Mediteranean Sea area or monsoon-like heavy rains in Central Europe at the same time it is more then clear that climate change is real. There is no time to waist as the changes in the atmosphere are proceeding very fast. Architecture needs to catch up and address this important issue. For almost 10 years we try to adress it and strive to deliver concepts to be implemented for the protection of people. We also look at the possible potential that these new happenings could hold such as natural resources harvesting and storing or transforming wind energy into electricity that could allow to break free form the addiction from coal.

WATER - THE NEXT OIL

WATER - THE NEXT OIL

WATER - THE NEXT OIL

Many countries face the problem of potable water deficit. Even the ones with heavy rain seasons like Asian aglomerations. It's a paradox but it is mostly related to the lack of harvesting and storing capabilities. Natural reservoirs of this precious resource will become important locations just as once gold mines and later oil fields were. In the coming years water will become a precious currency even worth fighting for as some conflicts are predicted to rise over it. This could be avoided if a water collecting agenda could be spread just as smart grids are. We have implemented it in a few of our designs in different locations in the World ranging from Libya in North Africa to Taiwan in South Asia.

As architects and urbanists we see a big potential in old unused rail paths in the Central Eastern Europe region. Many connections were canceled over the years and as a result routes which are cleared from obstructions were left apart. These  paths seem perfect to be utilized for new means for commuting such as hyperloop tubes. We have mapped these lines and prepared concepts for stations that are needed to service this type of infrastructural projects.

The race for the tallest super towers in Asian, European or American regions often generates structures that are not logic in terms of their practical use. A big number of upper floors become inhabitable due to unpleasant living or working conditions related to strong winds and building's oscillation. Costs as well increase when it comes to delievering for example water in vertical 1km distances.

Whenever a new town or city is built they appear as support facilities. This way they are one of the most popular structures worldwide.All of them posses a great potential with their roofs and walls as they could serve not only one function but also many others at the same time. This approach we prepared is highly important as cities will be getting much denser and their space will be much more valued.

In many areas in the World which do not hold enough or quality spaces for building purposes land is beeing created in places that were previously seas and lakes. Minced granite reinforced with concrete as solid as it appears does not have the same features as natural soil. Some changes come at great cost resulting in liquefication and building disasters. To prevail those happenings we delivered a strategy featuring terraced structures and piling.

Adding to the creative ideas and solutions that respond to the COVID-19 reality we envisioned how our current projects might be affected. The hospitality sector is one that would have to drastically rethink it's business core. During the pandemic hotels would not able to receive their normal guests and could rely on a diiferent type of users. Afer it on the other side they would be able to return to their normal function but with a limited offer - in most countries beeing able to host only half of the guests capacity, A new purpose for hospiality buildings might then come up. With every problem there is a hidden potential to be discovered.

Robotics might seem far too detached from nature but in reality it is already present in the farmlands in a worldwide scale. The country side is becoming the place of the new technological revolution with machines growing plants on their own in enormous warehouses without any humans present. But robots can be also connected with the society and nature at the same time on urban farming sites in cities. Here they would offer a helping hand for this type of gardening that is recenty experiencing it's renewal.

GREEN CITY CORRIDORS VISIONS

VANITY HEIGHTS

We are big fans of vast green areas that can be applied in cities in a pragmatical manner, in places that need it the most. One of them are definetly big connectors, highways which cross and negatively divide city areas and cause a lot of issues for their citizens like noise or polution. After proposing local solutions in Seoul, South Korea and Atlanta in the USA, we have teamed up with local consultants to come up with a promotional campaign for a park extention on top of one of the main arteries in Warsaw in Poland which would hidden in a tunnel. Our non-utopian vision was focused not only on planting trees but on creating spaces for socializing for the local community.

MJZ contributed to and exhibition organised by the Association of Polish Architects SARP related to dream houses. As we love nature and are heavily working on resilient projects it could not be any other than a green vertical structure. The living conditions of a family and it's three generations in this unit would be strongly connected with the life cycle of a singular tree.

As we prepared a concept related to one of the most popular city structures on a worldwide scale - gas stations ,we have seen that the location of the project itself is rather limiting as for media exposure. Such an innovative concept deserved to be shown for and in many other places to bring this important case study to a wider audience. As a result we have prepared an entire campaign for our client with a promotional movie and a presentation which was later exhibited in Venice, Berlin, Sofia and Vilnius. All this effort together with the project was awarded the prestigeous German Design Award 2018 not only for the architectural quality but officially as well for Excellence in Comunication Design.

STRATEGY FOR ATLANTA CAMPAIGN

AUGMENTED REALITY AS THE REALITY

We took part in the American Institute of Architects convention which took place in 2016 in Atlanta. Here we had the chance to present our strategy for the I-65 Connector, a 14 lanes highway which cuts the city in half as in normal conditions rivers do. Only in this case it is not connected with nature but with noise and polution. In our vision we proposed stiching the city with green bridges which have a mirroring underside able to reflect the important part of Atlanta for by-passers. As a final end result we delivered not only a concept but also a branding proposal, which was delivered to the Mayor's office.
