Any clues about the program or location? Or even the brochure title.

Kind of reminds me of some other Iberian firms besides AM. Barozzi Veiga, Tunon, Nieto

I did a search on Aires Mateus that hasn't yielded the correct result either :( haha.  Thank you for the input though :)

I went back into designboom and archdaily to try to find something but am currently still searching... if I remember correctly it was something like a concrete construction manual or catalugue offered by a specific company and it was featured in its own spot in a designboom or archidaily article apparently in november of 2020, hahahaha... dont ask how I am aware of such random information haha

Thanks again for your guesses :) :) :)

I'm starting to feel this might not be an AM project because their works are so publicized by this point that a casual reverse images search should turn up the exact project. Also, that canopy is very unlike their style.

Could it be Brooks Scarpa?

you could reverse search the image on google and see what comes up

Yeah, tried it in combination with several key words, kindof crazy that google can't just find a similar image that has supposedly been published.... crazy..

Oooooh, found it.  I tried to see if there were any other reverse image searching services, found this one called Yandex, and found it.

It's the Lumenart - House of light, office building by Rusan arhitektura

It won an EU Mies award - https://www.miesarch.com/work/...

Unexpected! Congrats on finding it.

Those are some very deep poches ... Seems they used a rainscreen system from Sto.

Think it's an improved EIFS-looking rainscreen product that is actually ventilated from the back. I guess it helps realize designs with billowing skins that exude a monolithic look. Barozzi Veiga used it too.

Format here is poor, but who else should do this?
