Set within a low-rise residential neighbourhood in Toronto, Montrose Sixplex by Gabriel Fain Architects examines how increased density can operate within an existing urban fabric without disruption. The project spans two lots and introduces six rental units through a carefully structured composition of semi-detached buildings. Two multiplexes face the street, while two laneway houses extend […] 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
At Gaya Beach House in Mumbai, Porro enters a residence that already carries a strong architectural identity and answers it with furniture and storage systems that sharpen the house’s tone instead of softening it. The project sits on Juhu Beach, spans six floors, and comes from Lissoni Casal Ribeiro, who designed both the architecture and […] More
Set within the dense forests along the Maskinongé River in the Outaouais, La Maraude approaches residential architecture with restraint and clarity. Nathalie Thibodeau builds the project around a precise understanding of place, choosing to pull the house away from the river and anchor it deeper into the wooded site. This decision defines the entire project. […] 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. The project addresses a familiar condition found in many early 20th-century homes, compartmentalized layouts that restrict daylight and disconnect interior life from the garden. Here, the […] More
Set within the expansive terrain of Songhua Lake Ski Resort, the Arc’teryx Alpine Touring Experience Space introduces a focused approach to spatial design shaped by performance, environment, and use. STILL YOUNG transforms the original ReBIRD™ pop-up into a permanent alpine hub that operates across training, repair, and social exchange. The project responds directly to its […] More
Montoliu Hernandez reworks a 1920 apartment in Valencia’s Eixample district, addressing a plan that had grown dense and fragmented over time. Earlier renovations removed original elements, including hydraulic tile floors, yet the underlying structure remained intact. The layout relied on narrow rooms and deep partitions that limited light and ventilation. The project begins with a […] More
EK Design approaches Bay Park Center Private Club through a clear conceptual framework titled “The Growing Garden.” The project, located in Shenzhen and spanning 600 square meters, treats space as a living system rather than a fixed composition. Architecture, light, and planting work together to create an environment that evolves through movement, perception, and daily […] More
In Milan, the most convincing rooms are the ones that feel like they have a pulse, as if you have arrived mid-story, not at a staged reveal. For the fourth edition of Artemest’s L’Appartamento, David Rockwell brings that exact instinct to Palazzo Donizetti’s oval dining room with Bacchanalia: A Ritual in Pleasure, a theatrical installation […] More
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
Brach Madrid positions itself as an interior-led architectural project rather than a conventional hotel. Philippe Starck approaches the space with a clear structural logic, building a sequence of environments that rely on proportion, material, and density. The project does not depend on grand gestures or monumental interventions. Instead, it constructs atmosphere through accumulation, layering surfaces, […] More
SOUR presents Pur, a residential recording studio set on the Aegean island of Cunda, developed for Pur Records. The project positions architecture as an active participant in music production, working from the idea that the environment shapes not only how sound is made, but how it is experienced and remembered. This premise informs every decision, […] More
