Casa San Giacomo is an apartment renovation in Naples, Italy, by Officine Architetti, set between Via Toledo and Piazza Castello near the Maschio Angioino. Designed in 2026, the 150 sq m (1,615 sq ft) home turns its relationship with the city into the project’s central idea. Three large windows and an adjoining terrace draw the dome of Galleria Umberto I into daily life, making the urban panorama part of the interior.
Penthouse Renovation is a penthouse in Chioggia, Italy, redesigned by Architettura Leonardo and completed in 2025. The project turns a recent renovation into a calm, contemporary interior where oak surfaces, dark millwork, glass partitions, and controlled light reshape the apartment without weakening its bond with the lagoon setting. Across the living areas and terrace edge, the palette stays warm, quiet, and precise.
Casa Frascà Bosco is a house in Roccella Ionica, Italy, designed by federico casati and completed in 2023. Set within the layered terrain of Calabria’s Gelsomini coast, the project turns local conditions into a clear architectural order, using hand-sculpted granite, deep shadow, and a stepped interior plan to organize daily life from the office and living room to the terrace and pool.
Villa Zenith sits above the coastline in Las Huacas, Nosara, Costa Rica, as a house by Salagnac Arquitectos shaped for ocean views and breeze. The plan divides generous social rooms and terraces from six quiet bedrooms, opening living areas to an infinity pool and an outdoor BBQ while keeping private quarters calm. Clean lines, light tones, and natural textures anchor the indoor–outdoor rhythm.
Apartment Z lands in Bratislava, Slovakia, as a rethought maisonette by GRAU architects. The apartment shifts from a compact two-room split-level into a layered home with a generous terrace and a clear day-night rhythm. Spread across the highest floors of a corner building, it pairs an art-forward living level with a quiet lower floor, letting light, circulation, and flexible furniture set the tone.
Home in Bailucchi anchors a two-level apartment on Genoa, Italy’s highest historic hill, where the city’s first stronghold once stood. Designed by llabb, the residence unites two former units into a split-life arrangement with sleeping rooms below and an attic-like living level above, tuned to sea light and port views. It’s a home that doubles as a lived-in gallery, shaped around daily rhythms and a clear sequence.
UAN House lands in San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina, where Alric Galindez Arq places an upside-down plan on a gentle, brushy slope. The house sets living areas above and sleeping rooms below to catch lake views of Ventana and Catedral hills while preserving the low vegetation. It reads as two clear volumes: a residence and a lifted garden that leaves the original ground intact.
Casa Oruç sits in Mineral del Monte, Mexico, where mist, pines, and a severe grade shape daily rhythms. Saavedra Arquitectos steers a house through this wooded slope with an approach that starts high and threads down to living. It’s a house, yes, but also a route through trees and rock, built for hosts who love company and quiet in equal measure.
