Villa Ganymede is a house in Bali, Indonesia, by LUASA architects. The project pursues modern tropical living through deep roof overhangs, shaded terraces, and generous sliding doors that dissolve edges between rooms and garden. Inside, double-height volumes and floor-to-ceiling glass carry daylight across polished floors and quiet, open-plan arrangements, while outdoor rooms align with the pool and palms to extend daily routines into the breeze.
Shilamay sets a family’s daily rhythm in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, where stone, lime, and planted courtyards temper sun and heat. Designed by Naman Shah as a house for his own household, it folds reclaimed wood and playful elements into durable, lived-in rooms. The result isn’t precious or remote; it’s a home tuned to games, chores, and weather.
Summersault House sets a clear rhythm in Sydney, Australia, where James Garvan Architecture reshapes a family house around light, circulation, and everyday rituals.

The sequence leans on a tall atrium, polycarbonate cladding, and clean white interiors that move easily between garden and room.
Galìni House sets a warm rhythm in Brisbane, Australia, where George Kouparitsas Architects draw the plan toward Queensland’s easygoing climate.

Capuchinas Villa places a crisp, contemporary house in Querétaro City, Mexico, by Orther Architects. The composition reads clean and assured, with planted edges tempering its geometry and a sculptural stair setting the tone at the door. Inside, double-height rooms and full-height glazing tilt the daily rhythm toward the garden. The project threads indoor and outdoor life through terraces and a pool, aimed at generous living rather than show.
M.H. Lair is a new house by Claret-Cup in Los Angeles, CA, United States, set into a steep Montecito Heights hillside. The three-story residence uses courtyards, terraces, and a winding circulation to pull daily life outdoors while threading privacy back inside. It reads contemporary without fuss, favoring fold-away thresholds, a cinder block spine, and rooms that adapt to guests or quiet routines.
Villa Serennia sits in Masal, Iran, a house by Padideh Kohan Boom that leans into broad horizontals, open rooms, and water’s steady calm.

Each floor sets a different pace, moving from communal life to private retreat with a measured, contemporary sensibility.
Sausalito Retreat sits atop Wolfback Ridge in Sausalito, CA, United States, a three-level house reworked by 35th Collective. The 2,500-square-foot, 1951 structure now expands to three bedrooms and three baths with broad glazing and timber-lined rooms. Inside and out, the project reads as a quiet refresh that leans into wood, stone, and brass while opening to the San Francisco Bay.
