MS House by Studio Saransh rises among nine mature neem trees in Ahmedabad, India, turning a Brutalist concrete shell into a porous, climate-aware family home. The architects organize the house around a central double-height bay that frames the canopy, threading courtyards, verandahs, and shaded terraces so daily rituals stay in step with breeze, filtered sun, and the soft acoustics of water.
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.
Casa Horizonte sits on the coast of Manabí, Ecuador, as a house whose weight and quiet presence mark the threshold between land and ocean. JGStudio works with exposed concrete and measured sequences of rooms to frame the horizon, letting the sea arrive slowly through filtered light, compressed passages, and open terraces. The result is a coastal dwelling shaped as much by material and labor as by view and air.
Residential House in Kaunas stands in a forest-fringed neighborhood of Kaunas, Lithuania, where Architectural Bureau G. Natkevicius & Partners shape a concrete house around ancient pines. The project turns a suburban corner plot into a quiet, inward-facing dwelling that still holds the surrounding forest close, using cast-in-place concrete and sharp geometry to negotiate privacy, light, and views. Inside and out, nature stays present in every daily routine.
Winkelhaus sets a curved concrete silhouette against the forested edge of Winkel, Switzerland, aligning every room with valley views. Estúdio KMMK shapes this single-family house as a quiet study in structure, material, and landscape, drawing on local stone and bronze details. The project balances a raw exterior expression with a restrained interior world, where white surfaces and pale timber keep attention on changing light throughout the year.
Oval House anchors a gated neighborhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina with a quiet yet assertive concrete presence by Jorgelina Tortorici & Asociados. The house wraps an internal oval courtyard, turning what could be a suburban perimeter into an inward-looking sequence of rooms and voids that balance openness, privacy, and controlled light. Everyday life gathers around this carved interior world, where marble, oak, and glass temper the rigor of the concrete shell.
Brutalist Panorama unfolds on the steep Panorama hill of Voula, Greece, where MKA architecture + construction shapes a duplex into two independent yet related homes. The multi unit housing project builds on Brutalist influences and contemporary minimalism, turning concrete, glass, and wood toward the sea views that define daily life. Across three staggered volumes, each residence navigates the gradient with its own sequence of rooms, balconies, and outdoor courts.
A Touch of New brings a quietly radical house to the Tinos Regional Unit in Greece, where Aristides Dallas Architects work directly with the island’s dovecote heritage. The residence steps across two levels on the hillside, setting a hovering concrete cube against the weight of existing stone to negotiate old fabric and new construction.
