Summersault House sets a clear rhythm in Sydney, Australia, where James Garvan Architecture reshapes a family house around light, circulation, and everyday rituals. Conceived for a five-person household in Bronte, the project stitches a restored Federation frontage to a contemporary core and a studio above an adaptable garage. The sequence leans on a tall atrium, polycarbonate cladding, and clean white interiors that move easily between garden and room.

Kazemat Koningsweg sets a quiet tone on the Veluwe in the Netherlands, where JCR Architecten crafts a hideout that recedes into the land. The small holiday house occupies a former military compound now shared by housing, workplaces, and eleven compact retreats, and it meets the brief with angular restraint and a camouflaged stance. Sunken into the ground, it reads like a bunker from afar yet opens to treetop views and light within.
