Rathnelly House anchors a comprehensive renovation in Toronto, Canada by Studio VAARO, reshaping an Edwardian semi-detached home into a materially rich multi-family residence. The project enlarges usable area within the existing footprint through structural rethinking and a sculptural approach to concrete, wood, stone, and plaster. Across floors, crafted millwork, curving partitions, and an evolving stair establish a clear narrative of construction and comfort that supports family life and entertaining.
The Recontruction of an Apartment in Prague by ATELIER 111 architekti showcases a stunning transformation of a historic 20th-century apartment in the heart of the Czech capital. Spanning an entire floor, this generous living space combines a modern, open-concept design with the apartment’s original character, featuring a seamless enfilade, a vibrant quartzite kitchen island, and a central circular dining table that anchors the entire layout. Elegant brass accents and a cohesive ivory color palette tie together the apartment’s blend of contemporary and traditional elements.
