5 Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Architects and Designers!
Dear PA reader,
A curated guide highlights meaningful gifts for creative minds that go beyond the ordinary and genuinely resonate with how designers think and work. Automotive design also makes headlines as Ferrari Luce — the brand’s first electric car — signals a new chapter in performance and electrification.
A globally significant museum dedicated to the Baptism Site at Bethany, Jordan, was recently awarded to NÃall McLaughlin Architects, crafting spatial narratives that blend landscape and meaning; Zaha Hadid Architects’ ambitious NIFC project in Taipei pairs heritage preservation with a pleated, net-zero tower typology that stitches public space into urban life. The Forestone cabin prototype by IAAC students explores ecological design and wildfire resilience through regenerative materials and fabrication, illustrating how built form can respond to urgent environmental challenges.
