Kal Mara Illam

Kal Mara Illam Kanchipuram is a city built on geological memory. For over two millennia its craftsmen have shaped granite into temple gopurams and carved mandapams from living rock, embedding the region's identity in stone and weight. To build a house here, D.L.E.A. argues, is to enter that conversation rather than stand apart from it. Kal Mara Illam — literally "stone and wood house" — takes its name from this dialogue, translating an ancient material instinct into a contemporary residential language without resorting to historicist quotation. olie.stories olie.stories olie.stories olie.stories The house sits on the southern edge of Kanchipuram district, in Baluchettychathiram , at the meeting point of den...

the hidden house

Located deep within the dense urban structure of the Jordaan, a former studio has been transformed into a dwelling that deliberately withdraws from the city. Invisible from the street, the house opens entirely toward two enclosed inner gardens. A concealed place, quiet and green, embedded in the heart of Amsterdam. The design originates from a careful reading of the site and its daily use. The enclosed gardens and the absence of a conventional urban façade formed the starting point for an inward-oriented home, in which space, light, and movement are precisely attuned to one another. Jeroen Musch Jeroen Musch Jeroen Musch For this three-storey dwelling, studio PROTOTYPE designed the interior around a central volume th... More

LIYA Residence in western Peloponnese

The central concept of the Liya residence is based on the idea of composition. Its morphological structure reflects the meeting of independent geometric entities, each with its own character, orientation, and “body.” These volumes feature different materials, scales, and postures within the space, yet they are connected with clarity and balance. They coexist like personalities engaged in a living dialogue: with distinct identities but shared codes. Panagiotis Voumvakis Panagiotis Voumvakis This composition does not pursue uniformity; it seeks the acceptance of difference as an organic element of the whole. The volumes are arranged in such a way as to create relationships of proximity, distinction, and at times protect... More
