Torre dell’orologio unfolds as a warm mountain apartment in Sestriere, Italy, designed by Caracter Architettura d’Interni with a rich, tactile interior palette. Large windows pull in the alpine panorama while timber ceilings, layered textiles, and sculptural lighting turn the open living areas into a generous gathering place. Throughout the apartment, finishes and furnishings lean toward a contemporary chalet mood that suits the winter resort setting.
Casa del Colle sits in the alpine town of Sestriere, Italy, where Caracter Architettura d’Interni reshapes a compact chalet into a darkly polished retreat. The interior leans into warm timber, stone textures, and plush textiles, framing the mountain view with a calm, contemporary mood. Rooms flow from fireplace lounge to bunk-lined corridor and wrapped bed alcoves, giving the small footprint a sense of choreography instead of crowding.

Every room folds into the next, forming a quietly cohesive retreat shaped for alpine life.
Atria Institute in New York transforms a medical facility in New York, NY, United States into a residential-style retreat by Rockwell Group.

Casa Viale Della Tecnica sits in Rome’s E.U.R. district, where Maria Adele Savioli Architettura reworks a rationalist-era apartment into a contemporary, finely tuned residence. The 160-square-metre home unfolds around existing concrete and Venetian floors, setting a calm backdrop for custom furniture, crafted surfaces, and a renewed relationship between interior rooms and the wraparound terrace. Everyday life anchors the project, yet the material decisions push it into a richer, more considered register.
Masseria San Lorenzo anchors a 19th-century farmstead on the outskirts of Ostuni, Italy, brought back to life by studio Flore & Venezia.

Every move is calibrated, from the revived facades to the reorganized interiors, so daily life flows easily between the house and the surrounding land.
House and Office in Hokusetsu places a family home and workplace along a tree-lined avenue in Osaka, Japan, under the direction of Fujiwaramuro Architects.

Inside, exposed concrete and filtered light shape a calm yet engaged urban setting.
Meadow House sits within the secluded Santa Lucia Preserve near Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA, United States, shaped by Mark English Architects.

What results is a low, Z-shaped residence where indoor-outdoor living, measured light, and layered privacy give daily life a deliberate rhythm.
