Villa Dellago sits on the east shore of Lake Garda in Torri del Benaco, Italy, as a one-story house by JM Architecture. The pavilion settles onto a natural terrace aligned with the water, trimming excavation while framing long views. Within this compact outline, the plan splits daily life between a glazed living wing and a private master suite, with service rooms centered and lower-level rooms cut into the slope for light and outlook.
Villa Boe crowns a steep plot in Indonesia, a house by Alexis Dornier that treats the hillside as a living framework rather than a backdrop. Arranged as a vertical sequence of rooms and terraces, it turns topography into plan, from the tucked garage at the base to a circular yoga platform that surveys hills and ocean. The result is brisk and composed, with indoor–outdoor life knitted into every level.
