Altes Gericht lands inside Klausen, Italy’s listed Old Courthouse, where Stefan Gamper Architecture converts the upper levels into two compact apartments. The real estate type is apartment, but the project reads as a precise interior refit with a gentle hand. Under steep roofs and between old beams, the studio shapes calm rooms and puts every centimeter to work without noise or fuss.
NK Apartment is a 210 m2 (2,260 sq ft) penthouse renovation in Belgrade, Serbia, by Novak Kijac Architects. The apartment rethinks family life around open-plan living, soft light, and a disciplined palette anchored by HIMACS Solid Surface. Calm tones, warm wood, and precise detailing shape a home that favors clarity and comfort over trend, turning a generous top-floor footprint into a warm, social interior tuned to everyday routines.
Parkside is a compact two-storey house in Fitzroy North, Australia, by Austin Maynard Architects. Built at the rear of the owners’ former terrace block, the home fronts a leafy park and favors downsizing with dignity. The project distills daily life into a light-filled plan with a courtyard at its heart and long views to the trees. It’s designed for aging-in-place without giving up sociability or a sense of address.
Apartment Eterna sits in Ljubljana, Slovenia, conceived by Vivijana Zorman as an apartment tailored to light and ease.

The result is a measured domestic setting where texture and curve soften daily routines without noise.
KSANA tea house lands in Bangkok, Thailand as a compact restaurant by Juti Architects, tucked beneath the public stairs fronting the OCC office tower.

Visitors slip from the bustle into a crafted interior that reads more like a gorge than a shop, with material choices steering the mood and the ritual.
Casa la Marchesana sits in Bologna, Italy, where a historic envelope meets a crisp, contemporary interior.

A matte black volume inserts circulation, kitchen, and mezzanine into the whitewashed shell, setting a confident rhythm across timber floors and exposed beams.
Sleeping Lab·Tang sits in Beijing, China, conceived by Atelier d’More as a hospitality project with a crafted touch.

Maja Coffee Shop lands on a busy corner in Volos, Greece, as a compact specialty bar by Lab4 Architects.
