Architectural Record - October 2025

2025 October

For October, we visit a varied mix of projects that serve as cultural anchors in their respective communities: a soviet-era cineplex-turned-arts hub in the Kazakh city of Almaty; New Zealand’s earthquake-resistant new national archives; a gallery expansion at a cultural center on Arizona’s Cocopah Reservation; a centuries-old Belgian abbey transformed into an expanded art museum; and a vertical soundstage facility that enlivens an industrial corner of the Big Apple. We also venture to Giza for an inside look at the very long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum. The month’s single-project CEU focuses on a mass-timber academic building in Arkansas designed by a Pritzker Prize–winning Irish duo.

Check back throughout the month for additional content.
