Tanderrum in Erieta Attali’s ‘Archéologie du présent, photographie de paysages engloutis’

Tanderrum Bridge by John Wardle Architects and NADAAA, Photo by Erieta Attali

La photographie révèle ces relations mais elle ne les construit pas. Même dans le cas extrême où une structure est délibérément conçue pour se différencier et s’abstraire de toute sorte d’environnement, culturel ou naturel, elle est toujours inévitablement située dans un contexte et perçue comme en faisant partie.

NADAAA selected to design Turkey Bend

Posted on December 16th, 2020 by Nicole Sakr

Posted under: _Turkey Bend, Things We Like

NADAAA and Reed Hilderbrand Landscape Architects have been selected to design the transformation of the Turkey Bend site on Houston’s Buffalo Bayou. The Buffalo Bayou Partnership’s goals for Turkey Bend include bringing back needed park space and access to the Bayou for Houston’s East End. The project will include the adaptation of a warehouse building, the conversion of a wharf building into an events space, as well as the metamorphosis of the water’s edge and the steeply sloping interstitial spaces of the site that connect to the Bayou’s trails.

We look forward to working with the Buffalo Bayou Partnership on this exciting project and getting to know the East End’s communities!

Learn more about the Buffalo Bayou Partnership HERE.
