Vorst crowns a modernist 1955 building in Brussels, Belgium, where architect Arnout De Sutter reimagines a once-awkward top-floor apartment for a stylist and art lover. What began as a triangular pied-à-terre now unfolds as an urban retreat, shaped around light, views, and a generous rhythm of hosting friends. The result is a calm, layered interior that folds hospitality, privacy, and art display into one clear, flowing plan.
DDAR stands on a 10-hectare hillside just outside Essaouira, Morocco, by Othmane Bengebara Studio. The project reads as a contemporary douar—rooted in local climate, craft, and community—yet tuned for present-day life. Designed in 2024 in collaboration with the owners and regional makers, this house embraces vernacular intelligence and bioclimatic thinking, from wind-calibrated openings to robust water management. It’s a home built by many hands, and for many conversations.
