SwissHouse XL is a house in Coldrerio, Switzerland, designed by Davide Macullo Architects for a young local family with deep ties to the area. Completed in 2023, the project takes its cues from rural building types and the village edge, where the historical core meets more recent expansion. An octagonal plan, cut roofline, and exterior stair give the home a clear figure without losing its connection to place.
House JM stands as a calm, contemporary single-family house in Ljubljana, Slovenia, shaped by the narrow urban plot around it.

Inside, light, glazing, and a raised ground floor set a measured rhythm for everyday family life.

The house shifts from a compartmentalized layout toward generous, flexible rooms that support a warmer, more connected way of living today.

Light and ventilation guide how the home is used, not just how it looks.

Inside, restrained finishes and large openings keep attention on the shifting greenery beyond the glass.

Zilker Park House stands as an urban house in Texas City, United States, by Specht Novak, set within a neighborhood where small lots meet increasing density.

Casa dos Sobreiros II sits in Póvoa de Varzim, Portugal, as a rigorously ordered house by Urbanpolis that orients daily life around light and sequence.

Continuous white surfaces and precise volumes underline a calm, contemporary character rooted in clarity rather than excess.
