Wonho Lee creates Brise fan hidden inside a side table

Brise fan and side table by Wonho Lee

An electric fan is disguised as an understated side table in Brise, a student project from Hongik University graduate Wonho Lee.

The Brise fan mechanism is concealed within a round table topped with Douglas fir wood. Air enters through the bottom of the unit and is pushed up and out by the electric fan inside.

The Brise side table contains a hidden fan to cool a space and promote air flow

The fan generates enough air circulation to feel like a "natural breeze", according to Lee, and has the benefit of aiding ventilation as well as lightly cooling the room.

Lee was inspired to create Brise after noticing that his friends were opting for air-conditioning over electric fans due to a lack of space, particularly in single-person homes.

The curved shape of the wooden tabletop element disperses air from the fan in all directions

They did not want an appliance that was going to sit unused for most of the year, taking up space and gathering dust – dust that would only make them more unlikely to want to use the fan again the following summer.

"The design of Brise concentrates on sustainability and I define sustainability in this project as seamless use of the product," said Lee.

"In my small room, my fan has been used during summer and it just stands there with dust after the season," he added. "I found that it becomes useless periodically and it is a waste of space."

Instead, Lee created Brise, which is named after the French word for "breeze". The working prototype is made from CNC-ed Douglas fir wood, laser-cut aluminium, stainless steel and spray-painted acrylic.

Its circular white body encases an electric fan. Air is drawn in from underneath the unit and emerges from a thin opening at its top, where a curved wooden component disperses it in all directions. This wooden top also functions as a practical tabletop.

The fan is meant to retain its value and functionality year-round, not just in the summer

Lee said its curved design is designed to be aesthetically pleasing, but also to make the fanned air feel more like a gentle breeze than an artificial wind. A dial allows the fan to be switched between three power levels.

Lee studied electronic engineering before his design degree at Hongik University, and exhibited Brise there in January 2020.

Brise was shortlisted in the furniture category of the 2021 Dezeen Awards, which was ultimately won by Cecile Manz' flatpack Plint design, a wooden coffee table that is assembled with leather loops.

Sophie Goineau and Enclosures Architects refurbish midcentury house in Beverly Hills

Curved kitchen of the Cove Way House

Interior designer Sophie Goineau and Los Angeles studio Enclosures Architects have restored Cove Way House in Beverly Hills by Alfred T Wilkes with updated finishes, "preserving the integrity of original LA modernism".

Located in LA's upscale Beverly Hills neighbourhood, Cove Way House is a low-slung villa that was originally built in 1957. It is laid out on a single floor, and contains four bedrooms.

Sophie Goineau and Enclosures Architects have revamped a low-slung villa in Beverly Hills

It features several design elements that were novel at the time, such as floor-to-ceiling glazing in the living spaces, a flat roof, and an open concept for the kitchen, living, and dining rooms.

The team's intention was to highlight these elements within the renovation.

Mid-century wooden kitchen
The revamp preserves the home's open-plan kitchen

"The original Alfred T Wilkes house, built in 1957, was a true example of mid-century "post and beam" construction, allowing for the wide-open flow of space from room to room, and the feature of a curved glass exterior wall, rare for the style and era," said the team.

"The original interior features were all enhanced in the restoration; flat roof lines, indoor to outdoor fluidity, open living plan and an abundance of natural light."

Wood-lined entrance hall of Cove Way House
New millwork lines the entry hallway

Goineau and Enclosures Architects completely updated the finishes throughout the property, including all-new millwork in the entry hallway, kitchen and living room.

"From the entry and throughout, the millwork is produced in woods indigenous to the US wherever possible; the inlaid ceiling, wall partitions and stacked doors frames are teak, including the art wall tiles in the powder room, handmade from Mosarte in Brazil," said the team.

"The wall paneling, fluted bar, doors, closets, vanities and kitchen are custom designed in walnut."

Dining room inside the Cove Way House
Slatted wooden screens divide the spaces

Visitors enter the home into a semi-circular foyer, which provides access to the kitchen, living and dining room.

These are partially screened by slatted wooden walls that give each space a certain separation, while still feeling like they are part of a single living area.

The main living room is separated in two parts by a fireplace built with long slender bricks, delineating a more private seating area from the main entertaining space. Both of these are open to the kitchen, which embraces the curved outline of the foyer, and to the pool at the back of the home.

The floors were also updated to a more durable material.

"The home's original carpet flooring was relaid in terrazzo, meticulously inlaid with brass inserts and cream Calacatta stone, inspired by architecture icon Alexander Girard's textile prints designed for Charles and Ray Eames, replete with Minotti and Henge furnishings.

The home's four bedrooms are laid out along a corridor in a separate wing, and were also refreshed as part of the renovation.

Other midcentury renovations in California include a 1960s home by Craig Ellwood that was refurbished with a light touch by Woods+Dangaran, and the home and offices of Working Holiday Studios, which underwent a more extensive overhaul to accommodate their young family.

Commenter questions why Burberry designed "a building that could destroy thousands of birds"

In this week's comments update, readers are irritated by Burberry's design for a reflective pop-up store in South Korea and discussing other top stories.

British fashion brand Burberry has installed a pop-up store that reflects a surrounding mountain range on Jeju Island, South Korea, for its latest outerwear clothing collection.

The Imagined Landscapes Jeju installation is made from plywood, timber and a reflective polycarbonate mirror material.

"Out of touch in pretty much every way possible"

Commenters are annoyed. "Oh, the poor birds!" said Stefanos S. "Why are architects allowed to design reflective buildings? The design is great but the reflecting material is plain wrong."

Apsco Radiales agreed: "I can even get over the shape, the design, the location, but why in God's name are you building such a highly reflective building that will destroy thousands of birds?"

"Tomorrow's trash today!" continued Alexis Harrison. "Hopefully, South Korea has plenty of landfill space for all that non-circular polycarbonate and plywood once this gets discarded after a pitifully short life pleasuring a select few."

"Out of touch in pretty much every way possible," concluded Steve Leo.

Dezeen has asked Burberry if the building poses a risk for birds but hasn't yet had a response.

Aerial view of Stadium 974
Demountable stadium built with shipping containers reaches completion in Qatar

Commenter says "if buildings could virtue-signal," shipping container stadium "would be a role model"

Readers are debating a demountable stadium built with shipping containers, which is nearing completion in Qatar ahead of the FIFA 2022 World Cup.

"If this building actually gets disassembled and built somewhere else, it will be the architecture story of the decade," said Puzzello.

"From what I can see the stadium is not 'built with shipping containers,'" replied Walter Astor. "The stadium is built with steel and concrete and then some repurposed shipping containers were tacked on to allow a feeble claim to sustainability. If buildings could virtue-signal, this would be a role model."

Garlic agreed: "In what way is this sustainable? A few tokenistic shipping containers plonked on for aesthetics doesn't make it sustainable. And what happens to those after the World Cup?"

Image of the cabin on a cliff edge
Zinc-clad hikers' cabin perches on a cliff edge in the Dolomites

Commenter calls hikers' cabin "superb in all aspects"

Readers are discussing a small cabin that Demogo has perched on the dramatic Marmarole mountain range in Northern Italy's Dolomites. It is meant as a refuge for hikers.

"This project is superb in all aspects," said Sheets. "Beautifully scaled, shaped, and sited – conscientiously and responsibly designed, expertly executed."

"Mixed feelings about this being an emergency shelter," continued JZ. "The last thing one probably requires is being perched in a wind-rattled box that appears to be intent on funneling off the edge of the mountain."

DY disagreed: "I do a tonne of multi-day mountaineering and in my opinion, this is fit for purpose. Beautifully designed and well located for visibility purposes. If you're worried about 'funneling off the edge' after a five-hour hike in steep terrain, then you shouldn't be up that high in the first place."

London School of Architecture spotlights 10 architectural projects

A project that aims to break down boundaries between traditional schools and the city and proposal for a cityscape designed to tackle pollution is included in Dezeen's latest school show by the London School of Architecture.

Also featured is a project that aims to improve the future of existing post-war social housing estates and a series of outside pavilions for educational activities.


London School of Architecture

School: London School of Architecture
Courses: Designing Architecture MArch

School statement:

"The London School of Architecture is a new school built for independent minds, not independent means. We offer a two-year programme of Part 2-level study composed of ten modules that address specific aspects of the knowledge, skills and behaviours our graduates will require.

"Organised as a living network, rather than a fixed hierarchy, the LSA forges a series of powerful relationships between academia and practice, architecture and other discipline and the school and the city.

"In the Inter-Practice year, students are employed in three-day per week, 12-month placements hosted by our Practice Network. In their other time, they work on LSA projects.

"In the Proto-Practice year, students are full-time with the LSA developing individual thesis design projects. The school uses the city as both its campus and testing ground, siting our investigations and projects in a different borough every year.

"Our programme is validated by our Academic Partner The University of Liverpool, who award our graduates with a MArch in Designing Architecture. The LSA is professionally recognised at Part 2 level by the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA)."

A visualisation of a new cityscape called The Metropolitan Wild

The Metropolitan Wild by Jack Bowen

"The Metropolitan Wild proposes a new form of cityscape that can tackle pollution, flooding, biodiversity and poverty. The landscape proposal enhances four distinct habitats – woodland, marshland, river, and open water – by the de-channelisation of a portion of the River Lea.

"This allows for cycles of natural flooding, working with nature instead of against it. The architectural proposal takes the form of an undulating walkway, curving in reaction to topography and habitat. This allows the site to be used during floods and provides opportunities for domestic, commercial, and civic typologies nestled beneath, lending to the creation of a unique, highly specified neighbourhood."

A grey and black visualisation of a space called Material(C)ity

Material(C)ity by Hannah Cruickshank

"Material(C)ity aims to decentralise the fashion industry, changing consumer habits and mindsets surrounding the disposability of clothes.

"By co-locating the various elements of the fashion supply chain in a singular building, it evolves into a circular economy. It creates a framework for new businesses to establish themselves into a craft economy with immediate access to a wide range of skills, machinery and professions.

"The local community and transient visitors will be given resources to gain consciousness about the value of clothes and textiles."

A visualisation of the everyday estate: a wooden structure with a man reading a book on the balcony

The Everyday Estate by Callum Rowland

"This is a proposal for an alternative future of estate regeneration capitalising on emerging remote-working patterns within a hyper-local live/work programme.

"Existing homes are upgraded and reorganised to suit the dynamic daily needs of individual residents. Localised co-working facilities infill underused spaces across London's housing estates, inviting new occupants to these forgotten pieces of the city and unburdening the home from the recent invasion of work.

"Transient-yet-integrated apartments sit atop existing blocks and densify the affordable residential offering. Finally, shared everyday facilities are sandwiched between old and new homes, providing a vital common ground for all residents."

School Without Walls by Rita Tornallyay

"School Without Walls' ambition is to connect school activities to the surrounding community.

"School Without Walls breaks down physical and programmatic boundaries between traditional schools and the city.

"Learning becomes flexible, permeable and accessible to all at any time. It spreads across the city, facilitating location-specific learning spaces, using the city as a campus."

Open-Air Commons by Kiril Georgiev

"Open-Air Commons seeks to challenge educational models, places for knowledge exchange and their spatial implications.

"It aims to liberate schooling from curricular constraints through a focus on thematic learning, open-ended exploration, incidental forms of education and to bring open-air education to the largest possible public.

"Based on a series of pavilions within an open landscape and a large steel canopy, the project makes use of inexpensive industrial methods based on standardised, prefabricated components and construction methods."

A colourful visualisation of a creative space in Hackney Wick

The Live/Work City 6 by Yavor Ivanov

"The proposal, sited in Hackney Wick, seeks to retain existing industrial, creative workplace and leisure programmes and further intensify the site.

"Through creating a clear hierarchy of public places in terms of scale and character, the masterplan sustains and enhances this diversity of uses.

"Industrial 'megablocks' within it feature work-home accommodation clustered around a civic factory, comprising shared workspaces, facilities and amenities, which facilitate the exchange between residents and workers as well as crafts and industries."

Inside Out by Cora McLean

"Inside Out aims to establish unique spatial conditions that encourage human interaction and introspection.

"A process of addition, subtraction and displacement are used to create space for community-focused mental health services and consequently prioritise holistic methods of mental health care.

"The site's new additions are a series of precast extruded arches that extend and highlight the existing fabric. They are broken, punctured and intersected to create a dialogue between inside and outside space and consequently open the building to the public."

A visualisation of Common Ground, a community space in Hackney

Common Ground by Jack Banting

"This project begins with Hackney's local authority offering 'commons' sites throughout its estates, and newly formed tenants and residents associations.

"A process of democratic resident deliberation and decision-making facilitated by the Common Ground project then determines a strategy of programming.

"An intervention formed of a new deployable, low-cost, framework architecture is then installed. In the hands of the community, new amenities will provide residents with spaces to work, live, learn and socialise, granting them shared facilities, a sense of collective ownership and scope to create new opportunities."

Student: Jack Banting

Course: MArch in Designing Architecture
Tutors: Samantha Hardingham and Matthew Whittaker


Cultivation | Congregation by Luke Upton

"This project aims to reposition the parish church at the centre of local community through an engagement with food.

"It establishes a local food hub, the Hackney Food Exchange, as part of a wider parish, city, and regional food network.

"This includes a dedicated programme of educational and community-focused activities and spaces woven through the church and associated CoE primary school, re-engaging the church with its immediate context and diverse local communities.

"The scheme serves as a model for the activation and re-engagement of the church building as a welcoming community space addressing social issues including isolation, mental and physical wellbeing and healthy eating.

Haberdasher Nation by Aanisah Chowdhury

"Haberdasher Nation seeks to create relationships between social housing tenants and the wider city through nature. It aims to build sustainable communities, improve the future of existing post-war social housing estates and the wellbeing of residents by integrating the estates back into the fabric of the city.

"To achieve this, the project proposes a self-sustaining system of growing and selling for the residents for gardening and garden education. It follows a business model for the estate to create revenue using a business model for a successful public space."
