HW Studio’s Kehai House in Morelia approaches architecture through reduction, restraint, and a precise reading of space as experience. The project begins with a clear conceptual anchor drawn from Kakuzō Okakura’s writing on the void, where absence carries presence and meaning. That idea does not remain theoretical. It drives every spatial decision, turning the house […] More
Studio Clara Crous Arquitectura presents La Fusteria, a project that transforms a former carpentry workshop into a contemporary residence. Located in a small village in Alt Empordà, the building retains key elements of its original structure while adapting to new uses.

PERLA, a residential project by STIPFOLD, sits on a hillside in Marbella and approaches architecture through the idea of motion held in suspension. The client acquired a project already under submission, which restricted formal changes and limited structural intervention. Within these conditions, STIPFOLD directed the work toward a conceptual transformation. RESIDENTIAL The exterior defines this […] More
Set in the Ora Mountains, the project by No Architects confronts a landscape shaped by absence. Once inhabited almost exclusively by German-speaking communities, the region emptied after 1945, leaving behind a scattered terrain of abandoned villages and isolated structures. The intervention takes one such surviving building as its starting point, treating it not as a […] More

Set within Toronto’s High Park neighbourhood, this renovation by Reign Architects reworks a traditional Edwardian house into a clear, open domestic environment shaped by light, movement, and material control.

Karlen + Clemente position Summit House within the steep terrain of Villa General Belgrano, allowing the project to grow directly from the hillside rather than impose itself onto it. The architects define the house through a sequence of horizontal volumes that step along the slope, aligning with the natural topography. This decision reduces the visual […] More
Kuba & Pilař architekti approach Zdar Wooden Housing through a clear urban framework that reintroduces the logic of the traditional city block into a contemporary residential setting.

The result […] More
