Plaza Mayor is a public square in the heart of Madrid, Spain. Dating back to the 15th century, it once served as the central marketplace of Old Madrid. Today, the 130,000-square-foot (12,000-square-meter) space still provides residents and tourists a location for shopping, eating, and enjoying a space outdoors. 📸: Costas Spathis #architecture #madrid #spain #building #travel #photography

Designed by Block 722 Architects. Situated in the island of Syros, this summer house hosts a couple and their guests. The design process was defined by the clients' desire to maximize the view of the Plagia bay. The main intention was to unify the various spaces of the house under one roof facing the Aegean, without creating a massive volume, thus resulting in a deconstructed rectangle with massive openings from all sides. 📸: Ioanna Roufopoulou. #architecture #house #view #greece

“Rollin’ - The nearly full moon rises slowly between the cathedral and the leaning tower in Piazza dei Miracoli, Pisa. “This alignment always captivates me, especially this time with the added sight of a seagull passing by. It’s fascinating to watch the moon peek over the mountains and then move around Piazza dei Miracoli, exploring different angles and perspectives with these famous landmarks of such an incredible place,” said photographer Carlo Cafferini #architecture #pisa #tower #design #architect #building #travel #photography

Singapore, with over 700 years of history, has transformed from a small trading post into a vibrant metropolis. Despite its urban development, the city-state prioritizes green spaces, including parks, nature reserves, and botanical gardens, as part of its ambitious biodiversity plans. Originally envisioned as a Garden City in 1967, Singapore now aims to become a City in a Garden, emphasizing equal importance on greenery alongside high-rise commercial areas. Over nearly six decades, urban planners have mandated vegetation in new developments, such as green roofs and vertical gardens, while also committing to sustainable practices like solar energy. 📸: Benny Tang #architecture #architect #green #design #building #singapore #photography #travel
