P Home is a mixed-use office project in Bangkok, Thailand, by Studio Krubka.

The project reads as both workshop and dwelling, where material precision meets a warm, livable plan.
Casa Lua lands in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, with a poised urban presence and a clear view toward the Serra do Curral. TETRO Arquitetura organizes the house as four stacked levels on a steep slope, each one reading as a belvedere.
