Baw Beese sets a quiet scene on the shoreline of Hillsdale, United States, where Disbrow Iannuzzi organizes a vacation retreat for several generations at once. The project divides the house into smaller cabin-like volumes so grandparents, parents, and guests can share the property or live independently, moving between them through glazed links. Each wing holds its own rhythm, yet the whole compound stays tied to the lake, the trees, and long weekends together.
Alden Mason House anchors a rare woodland pocket of Seattle, United States, where a creek, trees, and city life meet at the edge of Lake Washington. Reimagined by Ueda Design Studio, the mid-century house once built for painter Alden Mason now balances its original Northwest character with the needs of a contemporary family. The renovation treats the residence as a living archive, tuning comfort, light, and daily rituals without erasing its artistic roots.
Forest Edge House lands in Roscoe, United States, as a compact, solar-powered house by Marc Thorpe. Set on a wooded slope in the western Catskills, the 1,500-square-foot, two-story home pairs an open living core with a 25-foot cantilevered steel deck reaching into the trees. Built by Edifice Upstate and furnished by Ligne Roset, it balances self-reliant systems with a measured, rural clarity.
