Dye Fore 1 rises on the Dye Fore Golf Course in La Romana, Dominican Republic, shaped by Acebal Canney Arquitectos & Asociados as a residence tuned to land and light. The angular house stretches across the irregular plot, opening broad views toward the fairways, Altos de Chavón River, and distant horizon. Water, art, and breeze-driven comfort set the tone for a home conceived as both retreat and living gallery.
House with a View in Hinterbrühl steps down the hillside above Hinterbrühl, Austria, giving a clear vantage over forest and valley. Caramel Architekten shapes the house as a stacked sequence of terraces, glazed rooms, and circulation routes that follow the terrain. Across its levels, the project reads as a precise response to slope and view rather than a single object on the land.
Jaffe House Restoration rethinks a much-loved coastal house in New York, United States, bringing new clarity to Norman Jaffe’s 1978 work under architect Neil Logan. The project concentrates on the interior layout and connections to the courtyard and ocean, replacing piecemeal alterations with a coherent sequence of rooms that sharpen light, material, and everyday circulation. Historic fabric remains present, but the lived experience shifts toward a calmer, more legible rhythm.
Casa Horizonte sits on the coast of Manabí, Ecuador, as a house whose weight and quiet presence mark the threshold between land and ocean. JGStudio works with exposed concrete and measured sequences of rooms to frame the horizon, letting the sea arrive slowly through filtered light, compressed passages, and open terraces. The result is a coastal dwelling shaped as much by material and labor as by view and air.
Shadow of Tradition anchors a new house on Bistryčios gatvė in Vilnius, Lithuania, where both the landscape and architectural heritage are closely protected. Conceived by Devyni Architektai, the project interprets traditional Lithuanian forms with charred wood facades, a gabled roof silhouette, and a slope-set basement that together weave local memory into contemporary living. Every move ties the compact rectangular plan back to nature, history, and craft.
Résidence Saint-Damien places a contemporary house along the river in Saint-Damien, Québec, Canada, by Anne Carrier Architecture. The project stretches between farmland and mountain, shaping a linear rural dwelling for a large family that follows the contours of the land and the forest canopy. Across its length, the house manages the shift from field to treeline with a calm, deliberate architectural rhythm.
G+B Residence sits in Eastman, Canada, where DESK architectes translates a wooded plot into a luminous vacation house for a recently retired couple and their family. The long, low volume organizes everyday life around an L-shaped plan that meets the site at ground level, giving direct access to trails and the west-facing yard. Inside, soft tones, precise openings, and a restrained palette keep the house calm yet generous in use.
AGR House sets a quiet yet assertive presence in Bintaro, South Jakarta, Indonesia, where DSI Architect shapes a house around climate and daily rhythm. The residence uses split-levels, terraces, and a warm interior palette to tune movement, light, and landscape to the tropical setting. Within this layered arrangement, rooms shift between retreat and sociable gathering, reflecting an owner whose routines favor solitude yet still welcome structured moments of connection.
