Use the list below and the filter menu to browse through featured projects from architectural periodicals, and access the pages where they were published. Project data has been extracted from magazine issues through custom made scripts. Each entry records project name, designers, design field, typology, publication date, and a link to the source issue. Extraction of the datasets followed three phases: manual reading and data entry, rule-based pattern recognition via RegEx, and custom extractions via the Claude API (Anthropic), for contextual understanding across languages and font corruption. API-based extraction has been applied to several titles at modest cost, but not all. Note 1: Since datasets were extracted with scripts, entries may need curation. Note 2: Search fields work for Latin, Greek, Arabic, and Cyrillic alphabets.
