Chroma Penthouse unfolds across the roofline of a Kreuzberg residential building in Berlin, Germany, where Studio Bosko crafts a home around unapologetic color. The penthouse interior translates a young couple’s wish for “as little white as possible” into a vivid, primary-hued environment that assigns each room its own chromatic identity. Bright yet precise, the project turns an open plan into a richly legible home for living, working, and gathering.
Amnesia House sets a low, steady line against the foothills of Napa Valley, California, United States, its form shaped by Garde Hvalsøe with Edmonds + Lee Architects. Conceived as a single-storey house for San Francisco clients seeking a counterpart to urban life, the project leans into resilient materials and crafted interiors. The result is a calm retreat where wildfire-conscious construction, Danish cabinetry, and the raw terrain hold equal weight in the daily rhythm of use.
A45 rises as a 5,900-square-foot penthouse in New Delhi, India, shaped by Architecture Discipline for a single owner with a serious love of art. The home stretches along the treetops, wrapped in glass and carved around a sculptural stair, setting up a calm urban aerie where collections, light, and measured material choices drive every room. What results is a precise yet warm retreat above the city’s dense texture.
House of Monitors sits on the Scarborough, Canada edge as a compact house shaped by light and structure. Designed by Williamson Williamson, the project responds to fragile bluff conditions with a precise mix of concrete shoring and cantilevered wood volumes. Within this tailored envelope, daily life unfolds against controlled daylight, tactile finishes, and a clear reading of how the building is made.
Nhong Bua House stretches low along a lakeside plot in Thailand, arranged by local studio Make It Pop as a calm, light-filled house for everyday life. White gabled volumes, breezeblock screens, and long glazed walls pull in views of water and garden while holding back the tropical sun. Inside, pale timber floors and a restrained palette keep the focus on air, shade, and the changing light across the courtyard pool.
Living-garden House in Izbica sits on a hillside plot in Poland, where Robert Konieczny KWK Promes reworks the idea of a single-family private house. The project sets up a clear contrast between an outward-looking ground level and an introvert upper floor, so daily life moves between garden, glass, and protective concrete volumes. This calm tension shapes how the family experiences light, views, and privacy from morning to night.
Casa in Via Buonarroti sits inside a historic building in Rome, Italy, where damaSTUDIO works with the apartment’s long memory rather than against it. Barrel vaults, painted ceilings, and hexagonal terracotta floors anchor the renovation, while a clear contemporary attitude refines circulation, daily comfort, and the material palette. The result is a home that reads as one narrative, even as old and new keep their distinct voices.
Casa Verticale reworks a tall independent house in Santa Flavia, Italy, treating the apartment as a vertical sequence of rooms. La Leta Architettura reorganizes three levels and a private roof terrace around a new central stair, using light, oak, and metal to give the home a coherent contemporary character while preserving its intimate scale. The result ties daily life to a clear upward movement through the building.
