Downtown Living unites two mid-rise apartments in Boston, MA, United States, by Walker Architects into a single elevated home oriented to a sweeping city panorama.

Un Plaza Apartment sits high in Manhattan, New York, where Sherman Architects refines a once-compromised residence into a poised, open corner home.

In this apartment, material restraint and precise moves restore calm, clarity, and the views that matter.

Brik is an 87 m² apartment in Žalec, Slovenia, designed by Vivijana Zorman for a couple.

Vinohradská is a two-bedroom apartment renovation in Prague, Czech Republic, by SMLXL.

The Art Septum lands in Bari, Italy, as an apartment by Clubdesign Architecture Studio, composed with a collector’s eye and a maker’s hand.

It reads quietly at first, then reveals its depth with smoked mirrors, pale textiles, and precise edges.

Bronzino Apartment sits in Milan, Italy, overlooking a tree-lined square near Porta Venezia, and was designed by Gabriela Casagrande Arquitetura. The reworked apartment turns 100m² (1,076 sq ft) into two suites and a calm, integrated living core for a binational couple. Natural materials and precise joinery steer the mood while contemporary pieces, including a sculptural armchair by Casagrande, give the rooms a clear identity without breaking the measured pace of the plan.
