Located in Emigration Canyon just above Salt Lake City, this home designed for a young family celebrates a uniquely elevated canyon view with a rare and direct connection to nature. As a result, the homeowners enjoy framed views of the mountain vista at every turn, with unparalleled indoor/outdoor connections.

The home’s dramatic architecture is separated into two volumes that float above the landscape, each of which are finished with a blackened stain in the tradition of wabi sabi.

There are two houses in a quiet residential area with verdant greenery. One is my own house and the other is my sister-in-law`s family. While the two families wanted to live independently, they also wished to support one another and desired to establish a common space such as a garden and atelier to enjoy a lifestyle that allows for a sense of expansion that is difficult to achieve as a single household.

House Mesh in Linz, Austria by Caramel architekten

 
March 1st, 2023 by Sumit Singhal

Article source: Caramel architekten

The main aim of the design and the client’s request was a future-oriented handling of materials and a building that was integrated into the environment.
A generous green roof as a cut-out and folded landscape forms the largest space-forming element of the house. The lightweight timber construction with a ventilated metal facade and large glass elements form the remaining outer skin surfaces. The intersection of the massive terrace plateau with the edge of the terrain forms only a partial adaptation to the topography, which is why the building stands out from the terrain on the north / west side.

The original room was a long, dark hall with dim lighting and fixed theater-type seating. The renovation converted the large stage into new, modern bathrooms and a coat room.

It is not unusual for adjoining buildings to become architecturally connected. But this project’s story is one of a kind: in the former imperial city of Dinkelsbühl, noa* has succeeded in giving different architectural identities, each with its own history and peculiarities, a common face.

The medieval town of Dinkelsbühl lies along southern Germany’s Romantic Road and marks the centroid of the Stuttgart-Munich-Nuremberg geographical triangle. It is one of Germany’s best-preserved historical centres, with ancient city walls, defensive moats and traditional half-timbered houses. In this unique urban fabric, opposite the Cathedral of St. George, the newly designed five-star hotel Goldene Rose welcomes its guests today. The house boasts a lively building history, which has now found a new perspective.

House of Canopies in Bangalore, India by Studio Motley

 
February 27th, 2023 by Sumit Singhal

Article source: Studio Motley

Located on a linear site within a quiet residential community, the form of the house unfolds to envelope a generous garden court within. The three wings are distinct in function, containing a semi covered party area in front and the private bedroom wing at the back. Bridging these two is the wing containing the living, dining and staircase spaces and forms the heart of the house. Connected to the courtyard through a series of timber sliding doors spanning almost fifty feet, it features a double height volume capped by a large concrete roof which cantilevers three meters over the garden area. Continuous horizontal slits below the roof form a counter point to the heaviness of the concrete and create a delicate connection to the rest of the building while also bringing in a diffused light quality to the spaces below. The large openings are amply shaded and the horizontal slits allow for the hot air within to escape creating airy and cool interior spaces. A simple and restrained material palette of exposed concrete, kota stone and teak wood serve to highlight the quality of light and allow the experience of the courtyard to take center stage.
