Villa S
The villa is L-shaped and aligned to the south-west featuring generous glazing to the porch in front of the house and a garden with water areas. The light hill-side location, the expanded ground floor facing the street and the carport form a generous forecourt and entrance hall.

Wind Vault House
As the brief was substantial, the overall form of the house needed to be pushed to the envelope limits. Conceptually, the house design by Wallflower Architecture + Design is a raised reinforced concrete tube whose open ends are oriented in a general north-south direction.

The Wall House, Singapore
Design: FARM, Architects

The Wall House
This is a tale of two houses – similar looking, yet independent and coming together to form a coherent whole. The two blocks sit on a sprawling piece of land, belonging respectively to the retired parents and one of their children.

26 Jun 2013
Villa 4.0, Naarden, The Netherlands
Design: Dick van Gameren

Villa 4.0
The principle guiding the architects for this new intervention was to create a house that is sustainable and to reinstate the lost relationship between the house and the landscape. The first step was to preserve as much as possible of the existing house, limiting both the amount of waste and of new materials.

West Lake Hills Residence, Austin, Texas, USA
Design: Specht Harpman

West Lake Hills Residence
On a densely tree-covered site in the Austin, Texas exurb of West Lake Hills, Specht Harpman was tasked with the renovation and expansion of a modest 1970’s house. Much of the original internal structure was maintained, but the alterations sought to erase all visible traces of the original house.

Weekend House, Kovagoszolos, Hungary
Design: Borsos Ágnes

Weekend House
The capital element of the architectural concept was to keep in respect that scale of order, while adding the natural terrace system to its functions of today’s life complements. Modern materials were used, with the aim to ensure sustainability; the substances were weatherproof and time resistant.

Villa W, Frankfurt, Hesse, Germany
Design: Ian Shaw Architekten

Villa W
This white, monolithic house will reside in a suburb of Frankfurt. From the street this modern property will appear impenetrable, so delineating a clear demarcation between the public and private realms.

Zero Energy House, Lokeren, Belgium

Zero Energy House
26 Feb 2013 – The allotment creates a condition that is both generic and specific, context and non-text. The house deals with this condition in an apparently indifferent way, whilst in fact it is questioning the allotment.

W house, Thailand

New Property in Thailand
21 Jan 2013 – As a house, the function areas of living room, dining room, and service are supporters for the private areas of bedrooms. The bedrooms are like the boat which the river is supporting underneath for sailing.

Whale House, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Design: Atelier Reza Aliabadi > rzlbd

Whale House
The Whale house is another spatial experiment by rzlbd, a monochromic contemporary manifesto that evolves around a central detached box painted in red standing free inside a three storey height foyer. The building appears to have swallowed the box symbolizing the contemplation space inside the spacious jaw of the whale that swallowed Jonah.

Winged House, Singapore
Architect: K2LD Architects Pte Ltd

Winged House
A private family residence situated on a uniquely shaped triangular plot, the Winged House frames the site with two prominent forms – the trapeziums. These forms open towards the main view at the back of the site where 3 existing majestic palms are, and of lush greenery.

Villas Isla de Mallorca
The construction consists of a cubic volume that is placed in the plot in order to release surface in the south zone where the swimming pool is located. Open spaces are designed, with great openings to the outside based on the orientation to the sun.

V4 House, São Paulo, Brazil
Architecture: studio mk27 – marcio kogan + renata furlanetto. Interiors: studio mk27 – diana radomysler

V4 House
With each new project contemporary architecture is forced to optimize spaces and use the maximum of each square meter of the site. V4 House is a rare anti-example. Its occupation of the land is very far from the maximum coefficient.
