Villa JPC is a newly built house in the Netherlands by Guy de Vos, set close to the River Amstel. The plan follows the sun from first light in the bedrooms to sunset gatherings in a second-floor living room facing nature, with materials doing the quiet work: pre-finished teakwood, travertine, and microcement. Generous windows, plush seating, and a kitchen carved from rock speak to daily life as much as craft.
Bueno Apartment sits in Brasília, Brazil, where BLOCO Arquitetos reworks a 125 m² (1,345 ft²) residence inside a pillar-free 1980s building.

Designed in 2025, the project draws on the building’s perimeter structure and precast concrete to unlock a flexible plan for a couple and their young son.
Villa Zenith sits above the coastline in Las Huacas, Nosara, Costa Rica, as a house by Salagnac Arquitectos shaped for ocean views and breeze.

Clean lines, light tones, and natural textures anchor the indoor–outdoor rhythm.
House of Vid and Higurea sits on a cliff above Ostional, Costa Rica, where the Pacific wind and turtle nesting cycles set the rules.

It’s a house first, but its stance is environmental—quiet, resolved, and tuned to place.
Jurassis House lands on a steep plot in Dorset, England, United Kingdom, where the Jurassic Coast’s protected landscape meets village grain.

The result folds personal rituals into a crafted interior that balances display, relaxation, and daily flow.
Between Sea and Stone sits on a steep hillside in Sa Riera, Spain, with long views to the Mediterranean. Designed by Pepe Gascón Arquitectura as a second residence, the house steps down in platforms that connect daily life to the slope.

It reads as a measured descent, calibrated for mornings by the water and shaded afternoons.
