Imagine a street with no roof of its own, because a giant rock does the job instead.

That is Setenil de las Bodegas, a small village in Spain built into a cliff. Homes and cafes sit right under the stone, staying cool in summer and warm in winter, all naturally.

Even its name has a story. It means "seven times nothing," from a time the town resisted capture again and again before finally falling.

This is a small reminder that some of the best design ideas are the oldest ones.

Would you live in a home built into a rock? Tell us in the comments.

The Secrets Behind Ba Sing Se’s Architecture 🏯🍵

Have you noticed how real the city of Ba Sing Se feels in the new season of Avatar: The Last Airbender? It doesn’t just look like a typical fantasy city, and there’s a reason for that.

In this video, we dive into the architectural influences that brought the Earth Kingdom’s capital to life. From the massive walls of Beijing to the intricate courtyards of the Forbidden City, we explore how real Asian traditions shaped its design. Plus, find out why the live-action version feels so lived-in (hint: a lot of it was actually built!).

What do you think? If you could visit any district in Ba Sing Se, where would you go first? Let me know in the comments! 👇

What if your facade could do more than define the building? ☀️

Solar-powered facade systems are turning building envelopes into active energy-generating surfaces, combining renewable power with architectural design.

From BIPV glass and solar cladding to photovoltaic brise-soleils and customized coloured panels, these systems are making it possible to generate clean energy without treating solar technology as an afterthought.

The result? Facades that perform, protect, and produce.

Which solar facade solution would you consider for your next project?

Before you model a single wall in Archicad, proper project setup can save you hours of rework later.

In Episode 1 of our How to Model a House in Archicad series, we start from scratch and prepare the project for a complete residential model.

In this episode, you'll learn how to:

• Create a new Archicad 27 project using the default architectural template
• Save and organize project files properly
• Configure working units and story settings
• Understand the Archicad workspace and key interface areas
• Build good BIM habits for a cleaner, more efficient workflow

This series is designed for beginners and anyone looking to strengthen their Archicad fundamentals using real architectural workflows.

Watch the full episode in our YouTube channel.

👉 In Episode 2, we'll begin modeling the house by creating the exterior walls, interior partitions, and ground floor slab.

If you're following along, let us know in the comments: What part of the house are you most excited to build?

Why do architects LOVE photographing buildings at golden hour? 🌅🏛️

It’s not just because sunsets look beautiful.

Golden hour, the short period just after sunrise or before sunset, creates soft, warm, angled light that brings out a building’s *depth, textures, materials, and details* in a way harsh midday sunlight simply can’t.

From glowing glass to richer concrete and vibrant wood, the right lighting can completely change how we experience architecture.

And yes, architects and visualization artists often use golden hour lighting in their renderings for exactly this reason.

✨ Great design doesn’t change. Sometimes, you just need to see it in the right light.
