Dear PA Reader,

Across the globe, designers and architects are creating spaces that merge functionality with bold visual expression. LMTLS has unveiled SKIN1004’s first New York flagship in SoHo, Aranchii Architects has completed a modular logistics hub defined by red sculptural roofs, and Valente Tower introduces a distinctive pixelated façade to São Paulo’s skyline.

Healthcare and hospitality projects are increasingly centered on wellbeing and environmental integration. The Children’s Hospital at Westmead offers a more supportive and engaging setting for paediatric care, while Mandai Rainforest Resort Singapore shows how sustainable design can foster a deeper connection between visitors and nature.

Additional highlights include The Labs Tower by Eraclis Papachristou Architects, where exposed structural layers become a defining architectural feature, and the Getty Center’s transformation by Gehry Partners and WHY Architecture. Completing this roundup is a selection of the world’s most Instagram-worthy bakeries, where memorable interiors and architectural character enhance the visitor experience.
