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. The project responds to both the bungalow grain and taller neighbors, using varied massing, tactile materials, and a stepped section to hold its ground between street life, heritage oaks, and long views down the hillside.
Residential House in Kaunas sits on a 960 m² plot in Kaunas, Lithuania, where dense greenery shapes the experience of everyday life. Designed by Architectural Bureau G. Natkevicius & Partners, the house embeds itself in a sloping site to keep a low profile while opening broad views to the trees. The project reads as a modern volume tuned to its terrain, with material choices that age and weather alongside the landscape.
The McAdam residence aka Alpine Home 1 in Queenstown, New Zealand, designed by Ben Hudson Architects in 2022, features intersecting gables on a sloping site. The minimalist interior includes bespoke timber joinery, offering a ski lodge-like ambiance with sunlit spaces and a dark-tiled bathroom.
The House and the Landscape, designed by Inon Ben David, is a home in the Lower Galilee region of Israel.
