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.
Apartment Beige sits in Ljubljana, Slovenia, where designer Vivijana Zorman converts a once-partial attic into a full apartment for a family of five. The renovation centers the high, bright living core while placing bedrooms beneath the roof’s lower pitches, turning constraint into order and daily ease. Calm materials—beige tones and natural oak—tie the rooms together without fuss.
Apartment Eterna sits in Ljubljana, Slovenia, conceived by Vivijana Zorman as an apartment tailored to light and ease. Soft neutrals, warm oak, and rounded forms guide the layout, from the living room to the kitchen and bedroom. The result is a measured domestic setting where texture and curve soften daily routines without noise.
House Djurö crowns a cliff on Värmdö, Sweden, where CAMPUS sets a cast in situ concrete house toward the Stockholm Archipelago. The project, designed in 2024, draws the eye seaward with two flanking walls and draws daily life outdoors under a deep pergola. 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.
Residence in Curitiba anchors a generous family house in Curitiba, Brazil, where Caroline Andrusko Arquitetos guided both architecture and interiors. The commission centers on connection and well-being for a couple and three children, translating daily routines into rooms that flow between indoors and out. Clean lines and open volumes set the tone. A multi-level plan, broad glazing, and warm natural materials support lively gatherings, quiet work, and restorative downtime across the home.
Oak House lands in Pedrezuela, Spain, by Muka Arquitectura as a house shaped by trees, water, and a disciplined concrete frame. The plan yields to two oaks and a northern view over the reservoir, then tightens into an interior journey that rises in privacy and light. Built in 2024, the residence uses a single material system to bind structure, enclosure, and daily life.
KSANA tea house lands in Bangkok, Thailand as a compact restaurant by Juti Architects, tucked beneath the public stairs fronting the OCC office tower. The project draws on the brand’s Kyoto-sourced matcha and the nearby plaza’s water feature to frame a quiet urban pause. Visitors slip from the bustle into a crafted interior that reads more like a gorge than a shop, with material choices steering the mood and the ritual.
