Magnificent Memorial Monument

rts_memorial_1

Architectural fusion, if done right, can look amazing. Revamping a derelict, old building with a new dynamic style is a risky but brilliant approach (Google the Royal Ontario Museum, if you’re not convinced). The RTS Memorial is one such project that takes the Radio-Television of Serbia (RTS) building and gives it a memorial facade. The new facade looks askew, as if it were about to collapse. This is meant to immortalize the tragic loss of human life when NATO bombed Serbia in 1999.

Built as a museum and a memorial area for all the employees who died during the bombing, the Memorial facade does a wonderful job of being the beautiful Lily that blooms from the graves of the departed.

The New Face of Outdoor Furniture

segment_01

the Israel-based Segment development company combines aluminum with different materials to create a series of unique profiles that enable facade designs that are ever changing and fit perfectly to their client’s vision. One of the many advantages of the segment is the wide variety of profiles that can be used for varying applications. These aluminum profiles are very strong and durable and fit perfectly to withstand outdoor conditions in nearly any climate. As such, they are also great for wet areas and indoor applications. Ideal for use on outdoor kitchens and furniture, these pieces are constructed from modular bodies made of aluminum, 15mm in thickness, combined with other materials like wood, terrazzo, resista and more. Together they provide a strong, durable product that offers complete design freedom.
