Near Lake Como (Italy), in the Valtellina valley, Studio Moroni Architettura has reworked a 1960s house into something sharper and more deliberate. Villa G.I. does not add much. Instead, it removes the clutter, exposes the bones of the building, and places a handful of carefully chosen materials and colors where they can do the most […] More
On São Miguel, the largest island in the Azores, SO Arquitetura & Design has produced a dwelling that looks almost carbonized from the street. Black Timber, sited in Santa Barbara, wraps its occupants in charred Japanese cedar, known locally as cryptomeria, which makes up nearly all of the structure and skin. Step through the threshold […] More
Lisbon has no shortage of renovated apartments built around pale walls and quiet furniture. Umber Duplex, designed by the studio ID Concept, takes a different route.

Pavillon presents I Remember: When Memory Takes Shape, a new cottage in La Minerve, Canada, that draws inspiration from a family property once located on the same land.

A-nrd approaches the design of Arthouse Glasgow through the character and spontaneity of artists’ homes, transforming a restored 19th-century building on Bath Street into a 76-room hotel.

Canadian studio AKB Design has completed Des Cornouillers, a residential renovation in Boucherville, Canada, near a wooded area.

The renovation responds to the homeowners’ daily routines while preserving their connection to […] More

Its architecture follows the site’s dramatic topography, […] More
