Omer Arbel balances nature and form in this award-winning Canadian Pacific Northwest house

2023-12-01T18:42:00-05:00

Vancouver-based Omer Arbel Office (OAO) has completed work on their award-winning project 75.9, a new construction of a private home located adjacent to a hayfield in rural British Columbia.

The design scheme won in the 'Future Project House' category at the 2019 World Architecture Festival.

The complex was completed this year at an undisclosed cost and features a monumental column resembling a lily pad, produced via a proprietary concrete pouring method. A demonstration column had to be constructed on the site in order to get the clients' final approval. The result is an aesthetically pleasing four-volume arrangement recovered by the landscape that blends process and material into a singular modern and bucolic harmony.

“For 15 years, we’ve developed a method of working with materials at the scale of an object,” Arbel says of his...

StudioAC completes coastal Canadian home embedded into a steep ridge

2023-10-26T11:51:00-04:00

Toronto-based StudioAC has completed a residence east of the city, in a landscape characterized by an “intricate coastline and a bourgeoning wine-making industry.” The home, named Cherry Valley House, sits on a steep ridge that descends to the lakeshore.

Image credit: Felix Michaud

The house is sunken into the ridge, “protected at its back and providing a vantage point below the trees,” according to the team. Large windows on the shore-facing facade frame views of the lake, while panoramic windows at ground level face an adjacent meadow. Above, large dormer windows bring additional natural light into the space.

Image credit: Felix Michaud

The home’s contemporary spatial sequencing is contrasted by materiality drawing inspiration from the area’s agrarian architecture. Outside, brick and cedar “celebrate the duality of the site,” with brick used on the solid wall holding back the hillside, and a cedar roof wrapping down the facade fa...

Atelier L’Abri completes Passive House retrofit of 1970s garage in rural Quebec

2023-10-19T12:43:00-04:00

Montreal-based Atelier L’Abri has completed a Passive House retrofit in the southern Quebec village of Frelighsburg, Canada. Named Maison Melba, the project saw a former 1970s car garage transformed into a living space that is also open to the community for collaborative projects.

Image credit: Alex Lesage

The project brief and program were inspired by the fertile ecosystem of Frelighsburg, resulting in a scheme where, as Atelier L’Abri puts it, “beauty is in harmony with performance.” Outside, an Écomestible-designed landscape holds a greenhouse and a garden dedicated to small-scale vegetable production, while inside, the main building houses a residence, work studio, workshop, and a culinary production and meeting space.

Image credit: Alex Lesage

The exterior of the building is defined by a “noble and timeless look that blends with the countryside.” A steel roof is paired with wood plank cladding that gradually shifts from brown to g...

Atelier Bow-Wow’s first U.S. home features a large ‘umbrella’ roof in the Sierra Nevadas

2023-10-05T16:40:00-04:00

The acclaimed Japanese firm Atelier Bow-Wow has completed its first and only home built in the United States. Located at the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas in California, the Mountain House sits as a “meticulously designed and thoughtfully crafted residential structure” in sixty acres of forest, according to the property’s realtors, Sotheby's.

Image credit: Nick Swartzendruber for Sotheby’s International Realty

The home sits on the site of a 19th-century gold mine which features wagon roads, trails, and seasonal streams. For the building’s design, Atelier Bow-Wow pursued a philosophy that “honors the environment, manifesting in a structure that treads lightly on the land and resources while maximizing its connection to a breathtaking landscape.”

The entrance-facing facade is designed to be unassuming a...

Mork-Ulnes Architects and Alison Damonte reimagine San Francisco home destroyed by fire

2023-09-13T11:58:00-04:00

Mork-Ulnes Architects has unveiled their completed residential project in Bernal Heights, San Francisco. Named ‘The Silver Lining House,’ the home was commissioned by architectural photographer Bruce Damonte and interior designer Alison Damonte, who sought a “container for the couple’s art and furniture collection, and a laboratory for their work.”

Image credit: Bruce Damonte

The new scheme replaces an original 1908 wood house, which was damaged by a fire on Christmas Eve, 2017, when the project had already commenced. While the fire caused a reevaluation of the scope and scale of the redesign, the brief remained to “create a home that acted as a capsule for art and inspiration.” A new structure was proposed whose proportions, scale, and exterior massing took cues from the site’s gabled Edwardian neighbors, with an exterior black cedar cladding echoing the local vernacular and subtly referencing the fire that spurred the home’s regeneration.

Aaron Neubert Architects completes Los Angeles hillside residence defined by vertical ‘T’ window

2023-08-14T11:14:00-04:00

Aaron Neubert Architects has completed the ‘t House,’ a residence for a young family located in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills, overlooking the San Fernando Valley and Griffith Park. Described by the design team as an “innovative model for Southern California hillside developments,” the residence blends an adherence to strict hillside regulations with an incorporation of the site’s natural surroundings.

Photo credit: Paul Vu / HANA

Visitors approach the main entrance through terraced gardens, leading to a glass-enclosed foyer. On the opposite side of the house, addressing a steep slope, a vertical window spans three levels aligning perfectly with Barham Boulevard while giving the scheme its 't' moniker.

Inside, the residence contains three levels. The middle level houses the living space, including the kitchen, dining area, and office. The lower level features a guest suite and an entertainment zone ope...

Arshia Architects completes Bel Air residence inspired by ‘streamline automotive design’

2023-06-06T12:28:00-04:00

Los Angeles-based Arshia Architects has completed RO54, a residential scheme perched on a hilltop in Bel Air. The team describes the project’s aesthetic as “directed by streamline automotive design,” with a split-level concept following the hilly topography of the site.

Image credit: Paul Vu

The 6,700-square-foot home sought to minimize its perceived massing, with a “dynamic” building sitting atop a buried podium. To bring daylight to the bedrooms on the lower level, a courtyard has been carved out from the buried podium, which also doubles as a rainwater runoff filtration system for the site.

Image credit: Renee Parkhurst

Image credit: Arshia Architects

Inside, the interior palette was sourced naturally and includes a minimalist selection of mica plaster, hardwood flooring, and natural stone. In selecting materials for the interior, the team sought out low-impact, proven materials to achieve a balance between durability, ease of maintenance, and responsible sourc...

An Edwardian terrace house refurbished as a sleek, energy-saving abode in London

2023-02-16T15:32:00-05:00

British firm Architecture for London has recently completed the extension and refurbishment of a traditional Edwardian terrace house into a modern, energy-efficient home.

Photo: Lorenzo Zandri and Christian Brailey, courtesy of Architecture for London

Called Low Energy House, the residence is located in Muswell Hill, a suburban district in north London, and aimed to set an example of a sustainable refurbishment of a typical terraced home with a constrained budget. The project’s embodied energy and energy in-use were taken into heavy consideration.

Photo: Lorenzo Zandri and Christian Brailey, courtesy of Architecture for London

The energy requirements were reduced through insulating, triple-glazing, and improving airtightness. The home was extended via a rear extension and a loft conversion.

The home incorporates a timber structure, a continuous airtight layer, and insulation to the entire building envelope. The walls were insulated externally at the side and rear and internally at t...

MU Architecture’s lakeside Quebec residence is an ‘ode to the beauty of nature’

2023-02-15T12:52:00-05:00

Montreal-based MU Architecture has completed a lakeside house in Quebec. Built on the shores of Lake Revdor, the three-level Break Residence was commissioned to fulfill the client’s wish of building a home on the land of his ancestors and is described by the design team as “a place of welcoming and gathering” for the small surrounding community.

Image credit: Ulysse Lemerise Bouchard

The project is located on a challenging site, with a narrow lot and sloping topography. The resulting residence is composed of several interlocking volumes resembling a series of rocks, with two levels visible from the street and a hidden ‘garden level’ on the opposite side opening onto the lake.

Image credit: Ulysse Lemerise Bouchard

On the street side, a sculptural main entrance is defined by a double-story canopy chiseled between the rock-like volumes. In contrast to the solid, secretive nature of the streetside elevation, the lakeside sees the residence exhibit an open and extroverted personality comp...

This double-curved roof house by Mecanoo is covered in slick multicolored tiles

2023-01-12T15:41:00-05:00

Mecanoo has designed a distinctive residence with a striking double-curved roof and ceramic tile-covered façade in Schoorl, a village in northern Holland.

Image: Ossip van Duivenbode, courtesy Mecanoo.

Called Villa BW, it spans three floors, with an additional level within the hood of the roof. The roof comes together through two overlapping shapes: a gable roof and a horizontal roofline. According to the design team, the structure adapts to its natural, sloping surroundings. On its southeast side, the connection with the landscape along the sloped garden is enhanced by enclosing two voids with a curtain wall system.

Image: Ossip van Duivenbode, courtesy Mecanoo.

The building’s custom multicolored ceramic tiling reflects the strong connection between the home and the landscape. Its colors, five shades of gray, green, and blue, represent the transitions in the landscape, such as the dune landsca...

Spiegel Aihara Workshop's Wraparound House creates fluid connectivity without sacrificing Bay Area views

2022-08-05T15:28:00-04:00

San Francisco-based transdisciplinary studio Spiegel Aihara Workshop (SAW) shared new images of an extensive home renovation project of a 1930s Spanish Revival home in the Bay Area's Marina neighborhood.

Aptly named the "Wraparound House," the project was commissioned by a couple looking for their home to include increased indoor and outdoor space for their family without sacrificing surrounding views of the Bay. While the project includes horizontal and vertical expansion to engross six bedrooms and additional interior space totaling 4,738 square feet, the house also needed land stabilizing beneath the home.

Kwong Von Glinow's Ardmore House flips the residential script

2021-01-06T18:39:00-05:00

Kwong Von Glinow, the Chicago-based practice and 2018 Architectural League Prize winner, recently completed an intriguing residential project in the northern section of their hometown.

The 3,100-square-foot Ardmore House reverses the conventional section of a three-story home by arranging the bedrooms on the first floor and the light-filled communal areas on the second.

Photo: James Florio Photography

"A curved double-height atrium runs lengthwise from front to back doors, creating an interior courtyard that vertically connects the common areas on the first and second floors," explains the project description. "Defined by a large picture window and a curving wall, the courtyard offers an informal multi-purpose area where residents can relax and their children can play."

Photo: James Florio Photography

"The design of the home balances privacy and openness on the urban site. Off the courtyard’s curving inner wall lie all of the home’s bedrooms, pushed awa...
