Casa Duna, designed by WHALE!, is a dunelike house set on a flat terrain in the town of Tunquén, Chile. Arranged around linear gardens, the house inverts its geometry, with windows and balconies sitting within the interior, leaving the exterior largely unadorned.
Life Down A Lane, a house in Melbourne’s Richmond neighbourhood designed by Tom Robertson Architects, features a central courtyard. The contemporary family home is surrounded by neighbours, necessitating a design that balances privacy with openness.

Robust external forms open to the courtyard, providing a focal point and ensuring security. Central spaces include a sculpted marble island in the kitchen and a dramatic full-height window for exterior views.
