Casa Gálvez sits in León, Mexico, where residential blocks meet light industry and a surprising band of trees. Designed by Christian Mauricio Villanueva Gálvez, the house turns toward that green edge with measured restraint and a clear sequence. A compact tower for private rooms pairs with a generous social core, each reading the site’s breezes and sun to keep interiors calm without fuss.
Parkside is a compact two-storey house in Fitzroy North, Australia, by Austin Maynard Architects. Built at the rear of the owners’ former terrace block, the home fronts a leafy park and favors downsizing with dignity. The project distills daily life into a light-filled plan with a courtyard at its heart and long views to the trees. It’s designed for aging-in-place without giving up sociability or a sense of address.
House Djurö crowns a cliff on Värmdö, Sweden, where CAMPUS sets a cast in situ concrete house toward the Stockholm Archipelago.

Calm, rigorous, and tactile, it balances hardwearing material with tailored carpentry and precise glazing.
Casa del Sol sits in Conil de le Frontera, Spain, a house by Steyn Studio that draws its plan and poise from the sun. The project threads courtyards through a low, stone-lined ensemble and crowns it with a latticed central volume. Materials do the talking here, from Andalusian limestone to clay tiles that temper glare and heat, while timber and woven textures warm the interiors for relaxed coastal living.

Dione House lands in Goiânia as a family house by Studio Andre Lenza, planned for open-air days and quick closings when needed.

Hira unfolds in India as a layered house by Fulcrum Studio, paired with an adjoining office that extends the narrative beyond domestic life. The residence moves between introspection and conviviality, where concrete, marble, metal, and heirloom textiles pull against one another. Four stacked levels orbit a sunlit void and shape a choreography of light, shade, and reflection. The office next door continues the experiment, translating material tactility into a kinetic workplace.
