Alsace opens onto the quays of Gare de l’Est, a compact Paris, France apartment reworked by Studio Patrick Martins. Generous ceilings, original moldings, and a monumental marble fireplace set a historic frame for a new sequence of rooms that favors reception. Within this 55 sqm shell, a precise intervention pulls the kitchen to the entrance and tucks the bedroom deeper inside, turning everyday circulation into a quiet choreography.
Ciro anchors a renovated apartment in Bilbao, Spain, with a quiet sense of order shaped by designer Andrea Diego. The project turns a conventional layout into an open, warm home where the kitchen, dining, and living areas connect with ease, while a concealed threshold leads to more private rooms. Calm materials, custom elements, and a restrained palette define a dwelling that favors balance, comfort, and everyday clarity.
Luna House sits at the end of a quiet street in Curitiba, Brazil, where Nommo Arquitetos draw the house into close conversation with the Atlantic Forest. This modern family house stacks a timber-clad base and a pale upper volume, opening daily life to birdsong, filtered light, and a compact pool court. Inside, restrained finishes and large openings keep attention on the shifting greenery beyond the glass.
Casa M steps down a steep plot in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, as a two-story single-family house by Silverline. The split-level composition gathers everyday life around a social lower floor while lifting quiet suites and the garage above. From the street, it reads as a modest single-story volume; from the garden, it opens across two levels toward terraces, greenery, and a pool.
Villa VDSC rises on a steep rocky plot in Málaga, Spain, where A-Plus Villas shapes a house around a commanding Algarrobo tree and expansive Mediterranean views.

This project stands in Barbizon, France, as a house drawn deep into the Fontainebleau forest. In Sinu Architectes reshapes an existing structure with timber-frame additions, opening long views and layered thresholds between woodland and interior. The result is a calm domestic realm where controlled light, warm materials, and tailored furniture turn a once-ordinary house into an attentive retreat.
Inverted House rethinks suburban living on the hillside of Tbilisi, Georgia, where TIMM confronts a neighborhood of fences by turning the dwelling inward. The single-family house in Okrokana replaces the conventional boundary wall with inhabitable architecture, shaping daily life around two gardens rather than distant views. Within this protective perimeter, light, proportion, and a calibrated use of wood and white surfaces set the tone for calm, introverted domesticity.
Hata Dome stands on foothills above the Sawtooth Mountains in the United States, its white concrete curve reading against scrub and sky.
