As we come to the end of another year, the ÅVONTUURA team would like to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your continued support. We love sharing the best stories and architectural projects from around the world with you, and are glad that you’re along for the journey.
2023 was a special year for us; we featured a lot of great projects and interviewed some very interesting people. However, it was the launch of our Wandering Series last month that we are most proud of. As we round up some of the years highlights below, we invite you to explore them once more and enjoy these beautiful travel companions on your next trip abroad.
Wishing you a restful holiday season and safe travels on your journeys. See you in 2024.
Onwards!

Most Visited Project in 2023
Kengo Kuma Architects complete mountainside houses near Sapporo
On a mountain overlooking Sapporo city, we designed a multi-unit residence. Instead of adopting the typical residential “large box” tower format, we stacked “small house” units along the mountain slope in a stepped hill form. The “small house” units are staggered in plan to create spaces between adjacent units, allowing the residences to be full of natural light and ventilation and have clear vistas of the surrounding nature.

The MUST-SEE Architecture in New York
New York’s architecture is an awe-inspiring testament to human ambition and innovation. Our architecture guide showcases many of its iconic skyscrapers like the Empire State Building, Seagram Building, and Chrysler Building, as well as Art Deco gems like the Rockefeller Center and Flatiron Building which add to the city’s charm as well. Look beyond its past and contemporary architecture in New York is a dynamic and evolving landscape that pushes boundaries and redefines urban living.
