Casa Rea sits in Circoti, Croatia, a quiet Istrian village where olive groves reach the road and the hill of Motovun anchors the horizon. Designed by Sandro Uzila, this 2024 house traces a low profile and favors honest, local materials over flourish. The project reads as a retreat and a family base, built for long views, still water, and a plan that keeps attention on the landscape.
Sarrià is a full renovation by Sincro in Barcelona, Spain, recasting an inherited penthouse as a two-level home for a young family. The apartment now splits daily life on the main floor from leisure on the rooftop, tying both with fluid circulation and generous daylight. Clean lines, neutral tones, and calibrated black accents set a modern tone without glare.
Apartments and Lofts in Former Factory project brings five single-level homes to Trento, Italy, with Burnazzi Feltrin Architetti guiding a nuanced conversion from workshop to dwellings. The real estate typology focuses on loft living, split between two apartments with separate bedrooms and three open-plan lofts, each oriented for light and privacy. Industrial traces meet new material discipline and color, creating rooms that feel gathered over time yet rigorously composed.
MSR Apartment sits in Rio de janeiro, Brazil, where Mauricio Rebello – MRG Architecture reshapes a 150m2 holiday home around view, light, and tactility. The brief called for a social core that folds kitchen and living together while framing the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon. What emerges is a warm, refined interior with exposed structure and Tauari wood that turns daily rituals toward the water.
Casa in Isola sits on the third floor of a 1960s building in Milan, Italy, and reads as a measured rethink of urban living. Nube Architetture transforms a one-bedroom apartment into a more capable home in 2024, adding a second bedroom and bathroom without dimming the rooms that matter. The result preserves the building’s easy proportions while recutting the plan for daily life and light.
Moon House lands in Waverley, New Zealand, as a house by James Garvan Architecture that folds sculptural curves into a clear urban presence. The project starts from a social brief and grows into a confident composition of zinc-clad forms and brick massing. Inside, the rooms carry easy movement from entry to garden while the geometries set the tone for daily life and gatherings.
Home in Bailucchi anchors a two-level apartment on Genoa, Italy’s highest historic hill, where the city’s first stronghold once stood. Designed by llabb, the residence unites two former units into a split-life arrangement with sleeping rooms below and an attic-like living level above, tuned to sea light and port views. It’s a home that doubles as a lived-in gallery, shaped around daily rhythms and a clear sequence.
Claustro House anchors a hill town in Zapallar, Chile, with a clear, almost classical idea reworked for family life. Espiral Arquitectos centers the house on a cloistered courtyard, drawing movement inwards and light from above, while a two-level plan separates social rhythms from retreat. A private exterior and a porous core create a deliberate contrast that suits the coastal setting and a multigenerational routine.
