House 111 sits in Curitiba, Brazil, with a renewed modern presence by Rafaela Bender Arquitetura e Interiores. The house underwent a complete overhaul, aligning a crisp new facade with calm, cohesive interiors. Inside, a restrained palette and measured detailing anchor day-to-day life while the courtyard and pool draw light through generous glazing.
Summersault House sets a clear rhythm in Sydney, Australia, where James Garvan Architecture reshapes a family house around light, circulation, and everyday rituals. Conceived for a five-person household in Bronte, the project stitches a restored Federation frontage to a contemporary core and a studio above an adaptable garage. The sequence leans on a tall atrium, polycarbonate cladding, and clean white interiors that move easily between garden and room.
Villa GENEVE sits in Benahavís, Spain, within La Zagaleta’s guarded hills, conceived by ARK Architects as a modern house tuned to landscape and light. The villa draws the eye outward to the Mediterranean and mountains while dialing up comfort indoors, from double-height living to a hushed spa. Generous glazing, layered stone, and tailored furniture point to a calm, contemporary temperament.
Casa Rea sits in Circoti, Croatia, a quiet Istrian village where olive groves reach the road and the hill of Motovun anchors the horizon. Designed by Sandro Uzila, this 2024 house traces a low profile and favors honest, local materials over flourish. The project reads as a retreat and a family base, built for long views, still water, and a plan that keeps attention on the landscape.
Arces House lands in Madrid, Spain as a newly built family home by Ábaton, guided by a rational modernist image and a clear environmental brief. The project centers a planted courtyard and a CLT timber structure to achieve efficiency, warmth, and adaptability. Sliding walls, cross-ventilation, and low-impact systems support daily life with restraint and precision, aligning construction craft with landscape from day one.
House on a Hill lands in Hillsdale, United States, from FORMA as a measured, modern house shaped by pandemic-era realities and hard-won pragmatism.

House Beneath the Cross Hill sits on a gentle slope in Rokycany, Czech Republic, a modest house by Hurá Studio for the architect’s parents. The timber-forward interior gathers daylight through large, square windows and a measured plan with shared rooms at grade. Calm and personal, the home favors craft over show and keeps a direct line to the landscape.
Northern Writing Studio lands in Northport, MI, United States, as a compact house-scale retreat by Mathison Mathison Architects. The project replaces an aging garage beside a turn-of-the-century farmhouse, giving the owner a place for writing, rest, and time with family.
