Article source: McClean Design This property has an amazing view of Beverly Hills and the Pacific Ocean, but only a limited amount of flat land adjacent to the street, before it descends steeply into a canyon. The challenge was to increase the useable area of the property, while maintaining privacy from the surrounding properties. By keeping the proposed home as close to the street as possible, we were able to create enough space for the pool and garden. An L-shaped configuration would also provide privacy from the neighbors behind. To avoid an entry directly on the street, we carved out a courtyard space to drop light into the basement, and used a bridge to provide more of a feeling of entry.  Image Courtesy © Mike Kelley

Article source: coda architects When the clients requested the renovation project of this apartment, located in Asa Norte in Brasília, the main concern was to expand the social areas. Previously, the couple lived in a duplex whose size was almost double the current one, but with the departure of their children and the desire to travel led them to considerably reduce the size of their new residence. However, the option for practicity should not impact the spacious space they were used to, nor their ability to receive family and friends at home.  Image Courtesy © Júlia Tótoli

The new homeowners, a young family of four, had a vision for the house that went beyond its original character, blending modern, minimal design with the existing mid-century aesthetic.

Article source: 24 7 Arquitetura Located in the city of Ubatuba, about 230km from Sao Paulo, this summerhouse is on a steep slope and in the presence of dense Atlantic Forest, circumstances that led the project to a dialogue between the design and the exuberant nature of the surroundings. The terrain imposed a structural challenge and the steep slope and the large number of rocks and native vegetation made access difficult and prevented the view of the sea.

Article source: HYLA Architects Every site has its good and bad aspects. And every architect tries to design the building to take advantage of the good things whilst at the same time shielding it from the bad. This house is no exception. On the front the house faces west and a hard streetscape. The side and rear is built up with neighbouring houses close and densely built-up. Fortunately the south boundary of the house faces an adjoining road and a large open field and this is the ‘good’ side. And the design of this house is perhaps the clearest expression of the dichotomy between the good and bad.  Image Courtesy © Derek Swalwell

Article source: 08023 architects This house is located in a small village characterized by its hills rising in front of the sea from where any point has a fantastic view. Thanks to that privileged location, the house is designed with only one premise: orienting each of their principal rooms, terraces and pool, in the view’s direction to allow its enjoyment at any moment. This statement ends being the leading idea of the interior distribution and design of the principal façade. The house has three floors: the day area is located on the ground floor with its exterior extension towards the garden and the pool; the night area, on the first floor, includes a principal suite and two more bedrooms, and the basement contains the garage and a technical room.
