Garden Coverage unfolds across a 580m² penthouse apartment in São Paulo, Brazil, where Diego Revollo Arquitetura responds to a robust 1980s structure with vivid interiors. The project sits in the Jardins neighborhood and reshapes a recently renovated, Mediterranean-style building into a layered home for a young couple and their children. Color, material, and furniture placement carry most of the work, turning a neutral renovation into a residence with clear family rhythms.
Backstage at The Old Vic expands the Grade II* listed theatre in London, United Kingdom, with a new charitable wing by Haworth Tompkins. The project folds a café, learning centre, rehearsal rooms and event venues into one extension, giving the institution a daily civic presence beyond performance nights. With community access, sustainability and accessibility embedded from the outset, the building reframes how a historic theatre can work for its neighbours as much as its artists.
In the attic transforms an attic apartment in Prague, Czech Republic into a layered home by Boq Architekti, threaded with light from generous skylights. The renovation turns three compact rooms into four, carving out a gallery level and reworking circulation so the apartment feels taller, brighter, and more flexible than its footprint suggests. Carefully tuned materials and built-in furniture anchor daily life while keeping the volume open and calm.
Wagner is a four-storey terraced house in Milan, Italy, redesigned by Lupettatelier as a private world behind a vivid red facade. Inside, British-inflected colors, a hidden garden, and an art-filled interior turn the compact footprint into a layered journey through light and memory. Each floor unfolds around a central stair, where oriental textures and collected furniture create a quiet counterpoint to the busy city outside.
Rose building stands on the riverside avenue of Vila Real de Santo António, Portugal, where Aurora Arquitectos reworks an old house into a layered interior narrative. Behind the rational facade, the project turns an eccentric private world into five independent apartments that preserve mosaics, murals, and carpentry while adding contemporary structure. Each new dwelling grows from the original rooms, so the building reads as one continuous story in five chapters.
Kownatki Lake House sits in Kownatki, Poland, as a refined holiday house by Archmondo Piotr Kowalczyk that draws directly from the quiet Masurian landscape. The project anchors a 36-hectare lakeside development and uses rigorous detailing, robust materials, and a barn-like form to give contemporary leisure living a distinctly local character. Guests move between forest, water, and home with an ease that feels both grounded and deliberate.
MoMA Design Store Soho reopens in New York, United States with a refreshed identity by Peterson Rich Office that leans into the building’s rich 19th-century bones. The reimagined store restores the 1884 cast iron architecture while weaving in contemporary display systems, art, and signage that speak directly to design-savvy visitors. Past and present sit in close conversation here, and the result feels both grounded and distinctly urban.
MNG is a tailored apartment renovation in Milan, Italy, shaped by Archventil for a client with a vivid creative life and a need for everyday practicality. The project reworks a tall interior into an open, light-toned home with a mezzanine studio, aligning measured planning with a calm, refined atmosphere. Soft finishes, layered curtains, and a clear layout turn compact rooms into places that support both quiet work and easy entertaining.
