Casa Mavra is a house in Valle de Bravo, Mexico, by Taller Alberto Calleja. Two angular volumes in black concrete open toward the landscape, while a continuous wall and water-driven stair sequence guide movement from the street into the heart of the home.
The House of Time is a research facility in Babahoyo, Ecuador, by Natura Futura. Set on a river-linked site, it treats domestic life and collective learning as parts of the same routine. Courtyards, timber, brick, and changing light give the project a measured rhythm that responds to heat, humidity, and the work of local craft.
Boxed Set in Orinda, California, United States, by Buttrick Projects Architecture + Design, reworks a bent-boomerang suburban ranch house into a clearer sequence of rooms and thresholds. A skylit central volume organizes the kitchen and dining room, while a street-side box marks the entry and a detached garage with ADU completes the private courtyard enclosure. Natural light reaches deep into the plan, reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day.
The Long House is a four-bedroom house in Bengaluru, India, designed by Crest Architects. Set in a quiet gated neighborhood, it responds to a client’s brief for a direct, efficient, and intentional home. A 24-foot cantilever, an H-shaped plan, and a restrained material palette give the residence its clear order.
House M is a residence in Beijing, China, designed by Atelier About Architecture for a multigenerational family. Completed in 2025, it reworks a walled, low-light site through a sequence of courtyards, terraces, and atriums that draw daylight deep inside. The project turns inherited memories—trees at the window, terrazzo underfoot, red brick in shadow—into the home’s spatial and material framework.
Open Courtyard House is a private residence in Singapore by Wallflower Architecture + Design, conceived as a luminous house organized around an internal courtyard, pool, and garden. Designed in 2024, the project draws daylight and air deep into the plan, reaching even a sunken basement garden. Travertine, teak, white marble, and walnut plywood keep the rooms calm and visually continuous.
PDLL70 is a house renovation in Madrid, Spain, designed by Plutarco. Reworking a 1934 home that had been abandoned for years, the project looks closely at the period in which it was built while remaking its rooms for contemporary living. Vaulted ceilings, glossy surfaces, and a careful mix of marbles, wood, terrazzo, and color shape an interior that moves between historical reference and everyday use.
Casa Colina is a house in Tulum, Mexico, designed by Estudio Paulina Villa Arquitectura as a sequence of arched rooms, courtyards, and terraces that open directly to the landscape. Designed in 2025, the project turns the clients’ wish for clear indoor-outdoor living into an arrival experience with real presence, then carries that calm through living areas, bedrooms, and bathing rooms shaped in stone, plaster, wood, and filtered light.
