Beach House: Lake Archambault Residence sits on the shore of Lake Archambault in Québec, Canada, a new house by Ghoche architecte. Composed as a low, quiet arrangement of volumes, the project turns to light, water, and native planting rather than overt expression. The result reads as a clear coastal gesture tuned to a northern lake climate.
Greenkamp sits in Berlin, Germany, on one of the last open parcels within the historic Eichkamp estate. Designed by Atelier ST, the house answers a village-like context of trees, schools, and small homes with a compact form and precise material contrasts. It’s a family house with a quiet stance, tuned to the rhythms of the Grunewald and the legacy of early twentieth-century planning.
House lands in São Paulo, Brazil as a ground-up residence by Mareines Arquitetura, cast for autonomy and calm within a reforested plot. The house leans on passive strategies and a cloister-like garden to organize daily life and cool the rooms without machines. It’s a house project aimed at simplicity and connection to the land, with an expressive brick roof that gathers water and generous eaves that temper heat.
Sarrià is a full renovation by Sincro in Barcelona, Spain, recasting an inherited penthouse as a two-level home for a young family. The apartment now splits daily life on the main floor from leisure on the rooftop, tying both with fluid circulation and generous daylight. Clean lines, neutral tones, and calibrated black accents set a modern tone without glare.
Kazemat Koningsweg sets a quiet tone on the Veluwe in the Netherlands, where JCR Architecten crafts a hideout that recedes into the land. The small holiday house occupies a former military compound now shared by housing, workplaces, and eleven compact retreats, and it meets the brief with angular restraint and a camouflaged stance. Sunken into the ground, it reads like a bunker from afar yet opens to treetop views and light within.
Home in Bailucchi anchors a two-level apartment on Genoa, Italy’s highest historic hill, where the city’s first stronghold once stood. Designed by llabb, the residence unites two former units into a split-life arrangement with sleeping rooms below and an attic-like living level above, tuned to sea light and port views. It’s a home that doubles as a lived-in gallery, shaped around daily rhythms and a clear sequence.
Mode Eco Mood Hotel revives a historic property in Rimini, Italy, with a sustainability-first concept led by Rizoma Architetture. The hospitality project gathers multiple studios under one roof to test circular materials, responsible sourcing, and energy-savvy systems in real rooms guests actually use. It’s a hotel, yes, but also a living lab where reuse, local craft, and measured technology guide the experience.
Acapu House sits in Goiânia as a house by Studio Andre Lenza, drawn from the site’s four-meter fall. The project arranges daily life across three volumes that step with the terrain. Built for a couple at the start of family life, the home privileges open gathering, sunlight, and a direct line between living areas and the water.
