Renovation of an Art Nouveau house in Merano recasts a historic house in Merano, Italy, by Christian Kapeller as a retreat set between a busy street and a quieter garden. Designed in 2024, the project keeps the protected façade intact while shifting the experience indoors, where a timber house-within-a-house and broad glazing reshape the mood from urban pressure to calm.
Park Slope Townhouse reworks a 1910 house in Brooklyn, Kings County, NY, United States, with architecture and interiors by Leroy Street Studio. Completed in 2024, the renovation opens a narrow townhouse footprint into a more fluid sequence of rooms, terraces, and double-height moments. Art, built-in shelving, warm wood, and broad garden glazing shape a house that feels more expansive, more vertical, and closely tied to the rear landscape.
