Raumplan House stands in Singapore as an inter-terrace house by Formwerkz Architects, planned for a young family who straddles quiet everyday life and lively gatherings. The project navigates a sloping party-wall site with a sectional approach that pulls light, air, and planted volume into the heart of the home. Together, client and architect pursue a house that feels open yet still holds pockets for retreat and close conversation.
Art Fort is a two-level house in Kerhonkson, NY, United States, by Studio MM Architect. Built for a professional painter, the project pairs a welcoming home with a purpose-built studio, framing daily life around light, storage, and easy hosting. The house leans into the hillside and uses outdoor rooms to expand gathering areas, creating a practical, cost-smart residence that supports work, rest, and visits from friends, family, and curators.
The Stair House is a family home in Edmonton, Canada, shaped by NAKO Design in close collaboration with a client who’s an architect himself. Behind a modest brick façade, the house orchestrates four levels through a sequence of sculptural stairs and quiet rooms, setting a composed rhythm for daily life. The project reads as both workshop and dwelling, where material precision meets a warm, livable plan.
M.H. Lair is a new house by Claret-Cup in Los Angeles, CA, United States, set into a steep Montecito Heights hillside. The three-story residence uses courtyards, terraces, and a winding circulation to pull daily life outdoors while threading privacy back inside. It reads contemporary without fuss, favoring fold-away thresholds, a cinder block spine, and rooms that adapt to guests or quiet routines.
Arches House sits in São Paulo, Brazil, near Pôr-do-Sol Square, where vaulted roofs meet a revived family layout.
