Fuma House

Masakatsu Matsuyama House Architecture

Fuma

Fuma is a three-story house in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. The site faces a busy railway to the east, so the first-floor east wall is set back, while the second-floor structure and the third-floor eaves block noise, vibration and street views. Gaps between these elements let natural light and outside ambiance reach the interior. The main living space is on the second floor and works like a single-story home. Reinforced concrete load-bearing walls and unbonded cables support cantilevers of 5.6 meters east and 3.2 meters south. Large glazed openings face the courtyard.

Panoramic House

Eliza Schuchovski House Architecture

Panoramic

Panoramic House was designed for a family in search of a new lifestyle in the seaside. An atmosphere of belonging and identity, a panoramic view of the sea, elements of Brazilianness and an ecofriendly construction were some of the premises of the project. The building was camouflaged, in order to enhance the landscapes, through a contemporary architecture of pure elements and horizontal lines enriched by prominent points. Through parametricism, they carry originality and authenticity.

Double Barn House

Katarzyna Starzyk House Architecture

Double Barn

Double Barn is a contemporary house located in the suburbs of Warsaw, designed for a family of four. The challenge was to create a modern, yet timeless house design, referring to the traditional architecture of Mazovia and adapting to the context of nature. In order not to overwhelm the surrounding single-family housing with its size, the house was divided into two interconnected blocks. From the inside of the house, mainly bright elements of HPL boards are visible, which makes it feel cozy. At the same time, the dark façades made of graphite tiles blend the house into the surroundings.

Forest Archetype House

Genta TAKANO House Architecture

Forest Archetype

Forest Archetype is a residential project that translates the spatial order of a forest into a compact architectural form. The design is organized through a layered structural system rather than conventional room divisions. Vertical structural elements define movement and activities while maintaining visual continuity across the interior. This layered composition creates open voids and semi outdoor spaces that support flexible daily use. Through clear structural logic and spatial sequencing the house achieves richness and openness while remaining restrained in scale.

Arc V House

Seiji Takahashi House Architecture

Arc V

Arc V is a house designed for two generations of one family at the foot of a hill with ancient burial mounds and castle ruins. The residence is formed by two independent white volumes placed in a symmetrical V shaped arrangement. The geometry directs the view toward the historical hillside. A central void between the volumes works as a courtyard and a shared approach, giving privacy to each household while keeping a visual connection. Black metal and exposed concrete mark the entrance. A shared family room joins the two wings.

Tropical Frame House

Ahmed Habib House Architecture

Tropical Frame

Tropical Frame House is a contemporary project in Kuwait, developed on a 600 sqm plot, redefining the relationship between architecture, climate, culture and human experience. A perforated volcanic stone envelope forms a protective frame that filters light, air, and views while reducing solar heat gain. Shaped by water, tropical planting, and shaded courtyards, a moderated microclimate emerges within. A glass bottom suspended pool allows natural light to pass through water into interior planting zones, casting dynamic reflections that animate the interior and deepen the spatial experience.

The Three Roof House

Masashi Nakamoto House Architecture

The Three Roof

The Three Roof is a house in Okinawa, Japan. Traditional Okinawan houses use long eaves to reduce subtropical heat, but deep eaves also block daylight and darken the interior. The roof is divided into three parts, so daylight enters from the north side and air passes through the house more easily. The split roof gives each area a suitable ceiling height and creates variety in the space. A pillarless space of 4.0 meters is provided under the low eaves and can be used flexibly. The building is made of reinforced concrete with exposed concrete walls.

Urban Prism is a three-story house built in a dense urban area of Tokyo, Japan. The wood structure covers a total floor area of 127.82 square meters on a site of 100.13 square meters. Boundary walls and a gate form a buffer zone that brings light and air into the interior. A courtyard extends the living room outdoors, and adjustable screens control privacy and daylight. Textured fiber cement siding clads the exterior, while oak flooring, steel and glass shape the interior. The sculptural form responds to local height and setback regulations.

Aperitio House

TOMOHIRO ARAKI House Architecture

Aperitio

Aperitio is a one-story wooden house built on a site facing the Sea of Japan in the northern part of Tottori Prefecture. The eaves are kept low so that the building blends into the surrounding landscape. Light, wind, sound and scenery are brought indoors. The north face toward the sea is clad in galvalume steel sheet, the same material as the roof, for easier maintenance. Large openings on the south side provide daylight and ventilation and link the rooms with an outdoor living area. The exterior is kept simple to avoid an overly symbolic form.
