Sodon Lake House sits above a rare dichothermic lake in Bloomfield, Michigan, its mid-century ranch profile masking a layered interior by Disbrown Iannuzzi. The house, a renovation for a family of four returning from Southern California, pushes material performance and daylight while holding onto the site’s measured calm. It’s a house, but it’s also a study in restraint and endurance.
House on Lake Como sits on the eastern shore of Italy’s most storied lake, a four-level house reimagined by Pierattelli Architetture. In Como, Italy, the Florentine studio shapes a summer residence that functions as a daily home, using measured moves and warm materials to keep the mood easy. The result carries the rhythm of vacation with the comfort of routine.
Janošík Headquarters and Showroom sits in the Czech Rep., where the White Carpathians drop from forest to meadow, and it carries the hand of designer Jakub Janošík. The project converts a 1950s grain hall into an office and showroom for a windows-and-doors maker, binding daily work to distant views and a working landscape. It’s an office, yes, but also a live laboratory for openings, thresholds, and light.
CA – SA Home & Studio lands in San Vito dei Normanni, Italy, as a poised live–work apartment by CA-SA studio. The 2025 intervention respects a historic shell while reorganizing rooms to serve both daily life and professional work. Cement tile floors and star-vaulted ceilings hold the memory; lime-based finishes return a quiet, earthy register to the rooms and set the tone for a contemporary layer of furnishings.
Genesee sits in Los Angeles, CA, United States, a house by Siol that reframes the familiar Southern California hacienda. The studio leans into a generous interior palette and a clean geometry of arches, tying living rooms to breezy terraces and a long pool. Color and texture carry the story. Light does the rest.
Howqua River Lodge sits in Howqua Hills, Australia, a house by Robert Mills Architects that pairs off-grid resilience with high-performance comfort. The project reads the alpine climate closely and uses it, drawing light, warmth, and air across generous rooms tuned to the valley. Built in 2024, it leans on durable Australian materials and a gentle, restorative mood.
Casa Horizonte sits on the cliffs of Ericeira, Portugal, shaped by Mamey Home for a client who surfs and works remotely. The house, a ground-up residence on a west-facing plot above the Atlantic, answers the view while guarding privacy from neighbors. A rigorous nine-square grid anchors the plan, setting the stage for terraces, patios, and a roof terrace that extend daily life outdoors.
Chapelle MI positions a contemporary house in Mortagne-sur-Sèvre, France, by Atelier Ose with the original stone chapel as anchor. The project draws a measured sequence around the heritage buildings, connecting garden, terrace, and rooms through glass and timber. On stilts, the new volumes ride the slope and open toward the wooded hillside and the Sèvre Nantaise below.
