C-Lab Architecture

Contemporary Finnish Architecture Practice led by Marco Casagrande

5 Apr 2012 C-Laboratory - Latest Design Sandworm, Wenduine coastline, Belgium Marco Casagrande / C-Laboratory picture : Marco Casagrande Sandworm Sandworm is an organic structure/space/creature realized on the dunes of the Wenduine coastline, Belgium. The 45 meters long and 10 m wide and high installation moves freely in-between architecture and environmental art and is constructed entirely out of willow following the local knowledge of a continuing interaction between work and environment. 20 Jan 2012 C-Laboratory - Recent Design CICADA - Urban Acupuncture, Taipei City, Taiwan photo : AdDa CICADA - Urban Acupuncture The Cicada is an open form based organic space inside the mechanical reality of Taipei City. The simple bamboo structure reaches a 12 meter span with 8 meter height and is 34 meters long in total. The construction method is local knowledge from South China and Taiwan. By time the structure will be covered with vines, which seem to explode from the ground. The urbanized river basin of Taipei is extremely fertile. C-Lab - Finnish Co-operative C-Laboratory is a Finland based research - design & build co-operative of architects, artists and social scientists working freely in-between architecture and other disciplines of art and science within then general framework of built human environment. We realize ultra-ruins, cross-over architecture and finally the Third Generation City.
