Philosopher’s House sits in Valencia, Spain, a house reworked by Jose Costa Arq. for layered daily life. The renovation orients living around a sunny courtyard and lifts a library into a loft under white-painted rafters. Reused hydraulic tiles, restored doors, and exposed brick anchor the rooms while a red stair stitches inside to out.
Concrete House occupies a steep lot in Goiânia, Brazil, where Dayala e Rafael Arquitetos Associados organize living across two tiered levels. The house reads as low, confident horizontals—social rooms flow at grade to a pool terrace, while a closed upper volume gathers the private rooms. Structural clarity drives the project, using long spans, cantilevers, and a lean material palette to settle the home into its terrain without heavy earthwork.
Modern Farm House sits in Čtyřkoly, Czech Republic, where an aging farmhouse becomes a contemporary house by Marketa Killi.

Trevi Penthouse rises in Rome, Italy, a four-level apartment by Carola Vannini with rooms that open to the sky.

Across stacked levels, the plan balances grand gathering rooms and secluded retreats, using glass links, dark wood, and art to shape a contemporary urban home.
Tetris House rests in Greece, a house by ARP – Architecture Research Practice that starts from an abandoned concrete frame and turns it into a precise living structure. The architects work within tight local regulations and a dense village context to pursue reuse over replacement. What emerges is a balanced arrangement of rooms and terraces around a central pool, with measured openings to the port and the island’s rough northern edge.
Holocene House is a carbon-positive house in Sydney, Australia, conceived and built by CplusC Architects + Builders. The project turns daily life toward water, plants, and coastal air, using performance-driven strategies to meet its bushland setting. Inside, a double-height living room, colored glass, and an intimate roof garden shift attention from the ocean panorama to a lush interior world that still connects outdoors.
La Croix unfolds along a Canadian mountainside, a house by Luc Plante architecture + design that tracks the slope with split levels and sweeping gables. The residence organizes daily life around an open living floor with a double-sided hearth and views toward the Eastern Townships.
