Private Villa stands on the hills above Castellina Marittima, Italy, where ANDstudio Architects guide the restoration of a historic house into a layered rural retreat. The project pairs renewed structure and a new pool with expressive interiors, folding contemporary art, saturated color, and generous volumes into the villa’s long, arched rooms. Visitors move through vaulted halls and bright salons that keep the building’s past in view while easing present-day country life.
1930s Victorian bungalow traces the careful reinvention of a 1935 house in Austin, United States by Side Angle Side, recasting a rundown structure as a layered family home. The architects rebuild the historic shell around salvaged millwork and generous light, while interior designer and homeowner Holly Beth Potter threads vintage finds and new finishes into a calm, lived-in rhythm. What emerges is a house that holds history close yet feels ready for everyday use.
