Dye Fore 1 rises on the Dye Fore Golf Course in La Romana, Dominican Republic, shaped by Acebal Canney Arquitectos & Asociados as a residence tuned to land and light. The angular house stretches across the irregular plot, opening broad views toward the fairways, Altos de Chavón River, and distant horizon. Water, art, and breeze-driven comfort set the tone for a home conceived as both retreat and living gallery.
House with a View in Hinterbrühl steps down the hillside above Hinterbrühl, Austria, giving a clear vantage over forest and valley. Caramel Architekten shapes the house as a stacked sequence of terraces, glazed rooms, and circulation routes that follow the terrain. Across its levels, the project reads as a precise response to slope and view rather than a single object on the land.
Lavra House stands on a narrow urban lot in Matosinhos, Portugal, where WER Studio rethinks how a family home meets the Atlantic climate. The house inverts the conventional layout, dropping bedrooms to the ground floor and lifting social rooms to higher levels to gain privacy, light, and air. Across concrete, steel, and timber, the project choreographs daily life around a central stair and a rooftop terrace with pool.
Jaffe House Restoration rethinks a much-loved coastal house in New York, United States, bringing new clarity to Norman Jaffe’s 1978 work under architect Neil Logan. The project concentrates on the interior layout and connections to the courtyard and ocean, replacing piecemeal alterations with a coherent sequence of rooms that sharpen light, material, and everyday circulation. Historic fabric remains present, but the lived experience shifts toward a calmer, more legible rhythm.
H / Botevgrad stands on the outskirts of Botevgrad, Bulgaria, where Makeroom Architects translate the familiar barn silhouette into a compact contemporary house. The metal-clad shell holds a double-height living core, large south-facing glazing and a warm timber-and-white interior that gathers family life around shared rooms. Inside, simple furnishings and soft textures keep the focus on light, volume and the everyday rhythm of a single household.
Cenourão Penthouse crowns an emblematic modern tower in São Paulo, Brazil, where architect Orlando Denardi refashions a duplex apartment into a bright, porous home. The renovation leans on Brazilian materials, contemporary furniture, and a new terrace sequence that draws breeze, vegetation, and daylight deep into the rooms. Across two levels, the apartment fuses personal collections, restored structure, and a careful palette, turning a once-segmented plan into a layered domestic landscape.
Casa A12 stands on a hill above Aci Castello, Italy, where exposed concrete lines meet rough lava stone. Designed by Salvatore Puleo as a contemporary house, the project replaces an old rural building with a residence that commands views of the coast, the Acitrezza stacks, and Mount Etna. It reads as both lookout and dwelling, grounded in the volcanic terrain around it.
House on the Lake sits on the west banks of Lake Memphremagog in Magog, Canada, where Atelier Échelle pairs contemporary rigor with rural memory. The house translates the archetypal Quebec barn into a six-bedroom lakefront residence for an art-collecting couple. Four related volumes create distinct realms for summer, winter, living, and guests, turning the waterfront site into a seasonal sequence of terraces, galleries, and intimate rooms for family and friends.
