We came across this video on Collosal and thought we had to share it. The video gives a glimpse into a new cafe in Romania called Enigma. The cafe is steampunk-themed including kinetic works of art and found mechanical objects. Pretty cool stuff, check it out.

Courtesy: Arbuckle Industries We were in Chicago last week covering the first ever Chicago Architecture Biennial. Chicago is the first American city to launch an architectural biennial of this size. The event was established in order to provide a public platform for architectural projects and installations, similar to that of the Venice Bienniale (which we covered last year). Chicago definitely made sense as a host city as it is centrally located, has strong ties to the archi

The days are getting shorter and the weather's getting colder, but don’t go into hibernation just yet! This fall holds the promise of some great architectural events you won’t want to miss. A few highlights include Archtober (ark-TOBER), Open House New York and the Architecture and Design Film Festival. The latter is screening one of our films at their Short Films Walk through a collection of swanky SoHo showrooms on October 7. RSVP now and be sure to come to the Foscarini sh

We got to interview Pritzker Prize winning architect, Thom Mayne of Morphosis again this past week. This time it is for a production we are making for Cooper Union to act as a recruitment tool for potential students to the university along with allowing the public to get a tour of the building which is not frequently accessible due to its high-volume, private academic uses. Not really sure what's going on here but I think this was when we were discussing our Blackmagic Produ

The Seamarq Hotel at Gyongpodae, South Korea is a landmark hotel designed by Pritzker Prize winning architect, Richard Meier with partner Dukho Yeon. The Seamarq overlooks the East Sea on the Korean Coast and is a one-of-a-kind boutique hotel comprised of two main buildings with several outlying structures on the peninsula shaped site.

A few months back our longtime friend and very talented photographer, Matt Furman reached out to us about a new space being designed and built in the historic South Street Seaport district. We always love any opportunity to work with the Matt, and who doesn’t love New York’s seedy Seaport history, so we instantly had a meeting on the calendar to hear more. Flash forward a couple weeks where we came to learn about The Seaport Studio - a new retail concept store being developed

This year, Arbuckle’s own Ian Harris had the opportunity to speak while teaching a class

However, capturing architecture in a dynamic way can present challenges due to the size, form and volume of most buildings. Portions of buildings can be challenging to access, establishing viewpoints can be difficult to capture, and parallel surfaces can become substantially distorted. Thankfully, there are, lite

The AIA’s “ilookup” campaign is near and dear to us over here at Arbuckle Industries because our business director, Ian Harris, is one of the judges for the ilookup film challenge! He’ll be helping to judge the short film submissions as part of the film challenge. The judges picked for this year’s competition represent a wide range of incredibly accomplished professionals in the architectural and media fields. Check out the rest of them here. Arbuckle has also done lots of wo
