Glen Iris House by Pandolfini Architects

A modern, multi-level structure with a vibrant red facade and lush greenery.

The Glen Iris House displays compositional simplicity, bold materiality and intricate detailing with its abstract facade. Located in Australia, the house has been designed by Pandolfini Architects, who have crafted a robust family home tethered to its suburban site. The home features three, tiered pavilions, centred around a barn-like living space, which follows the contours of the long, rectangular site.

In Mérida, Mexico, architect Reyes Rosiñol has designed a house, named Casa O, that represents the syncretism between the worldview of the Maya civilization and the ideas brought by the Spanish. The design features a central “sacbé,” or “white road,” that connects spaces, embraces a guaya tree, and is crowned with a circular pool, all of which reflect the region’s cultural identity over time.
