Chroma Penthouse unfolds across the roofline of a Kreuzberg residential building in Berlin, Germany, where Studio Bosko crafts a home around unapologetic color. The penthouse interior translates a young couple’s wish for “as little white as possible” into a vivid, primary-hued environment that assigns each room its own chromatic identity. Bright yet precise, the project turns an open plan into a richly legible home for living, working, and gathering.
Amnesia House sets a low, steady line against the foothills of Napa Valley, California, United States, its form shaped by Garde Hvalsøe with Edmonds + Lee Architects. Conceived as a single-storey house for San Francisco clients seeking a counterpart to urban life, the project leans into resilient materials and crafted interiors. The result is a calm retreat where wildfire-conscious construction, Danish cabinetry, and the raw terrain hold equal weight in the daily rhythm of use.
FD House sits in Porto Feliz, Brazil, as a vacation house by Padovani Arquitetos composed around an L-shaped plan and far-reaching views. The project drops below street level to frame water, sky, and landscape while reserving the upper volume for more private daily rhythms. Across its open social core and broad eaves, the house invites friends and family into a relaxed, quietly cinematic setting.
AirOuse steps lightly onto the riverbank in Vila do Conde, Portugal, a low-slung house by Ernesto Pereira that leans into air, water, and light. Across its long plan, the project contrasts a fully glazed social wing with a more cloistered private realm, using warm timber and stone to hold the two together. The result is a calm domestic landscape where daylight, reflections, and easy movement define everyday life.
A45 rises as a 5,900-square-foot penthouse in New Delhi, India, shaped by Architecture Discipline for a single owner with a serious love of art. The home stretches along the treetops, wrapped in glass and carved around a sculptural stair, setting up a calm urban aerie where collections, light, and measured material choices drive every room. What results is a precise yet warm retreat above the city’s dense texture.
Steinach 10 crowns a 19th-century building in Merano, Italy, where NAEMAS Architekturkonzepte reworks two attic apartments into bright, ornamented homes. The project retains the Belle Époque character of the original façade while renewing interiors with fresh cabinetry, patterned friezes, and generous loggias. Residents gain new visual connections to the city’s rooftops and castle views, yet still move through rooms lined with restored tiled stoves and historic details.
Nhong Bua House stretches low along a lakeside plot in Thailand, arranged by local studio Make It Pop as a calm, light-filled house for everyday life. White gabled volumes, breezeblock screens, and long glazed walls pull in views of water and garden while holding back the tropical sun. Inside, pale timber floors and a restrained palette keep the focus on air, shade, and the changing light across the courtyard pool.
Casa Verticale reworks a tall independent house in Santa Flavia, Italy, treating the apartment as a vertical sequence of rooms. La Leta Architettura reorganizes three levels and a private roof terrace around a new central stair, using light, oak, and metal to give the home a coherent contemporary character while preserving its intimate scale. The result ties daily life to a clear upward movement through the building.
