Villa Ousia is a house in Pitsidia, Greece, by Paly Architects. Set on a hillside above the settlement, it reads as a sequence of three offset volumes connected by glass passages. Local stone, earth-toned plaster, and regional materials shape the project’s calm, practical character, while the plan opens toward the pool, the plain, and the sea.

Casa Magmol sets a crisp silhouette in Merida, Mexico, where angular stone planes lift above a deep lawn and blue pool.
