Sailom house is a four-story home that accommodates members from three families. Anonym designs the inside to look and feel like a service apartment with functional spaces that each family member can use freely and separately on each floor.

This house was designed for a couple in their 50s, entrepreneurs and business people, with an eye and a love for style. The design includes a space for their teenage daughter and guest rooms for their adult children, who come to visit with their families.

Lior Teitler The two floors of the house are connected by an expos... En savoir plus

Located in the Isla del Sol neighborhood in the Tigre district, Casa E is implanted and coexists with the local regulations. When designing the project we were faced with a corner lot, with an atypical typology within the implantations that are normally worked in the studio. Caption Caption Caption We decided on a design based on an L-shaped bar located in contrast to the corner, which instead of having the shape of the same, configures two gardens, one internal side that surrounds the bar and another outside. Both patios take the best orientations of the terrain and generate that the common use spaces are surrounded by vegetation. Caption Caption Caption Caption Caption Caption The house is...

On an ocean front mountain top, between tall grasses and acacia forests, walls meander in and out of the wild and wind swept landscape to create an 8 room retreat. Rugged, curvaceous concrete walls define the boundaries between architecture and landscape, wandering inside and outside to create public and private spaces. The retreat is thus named Wandering Walls, a building where the walls truly wander throughout.   Lorenzo Pierucci Lorenzo Pierucci Kuo-Min Lee Respecting that acacia trees do not survive migration or disturbance to their root systems, the building hugs the edge of a native crop of acacia trees to gently curve out towards the...
