Located on a rural site on Whidbey island, a local family sought a new home and retreat on their family farm. Out of respect for turn-of-the-century agricultural buildings on the property, the home tucks into the edge of a densely forested hillside, overlooking chicken sheds, a weathered red barn, cattle fields, and a fishing pond.

The property is located in the municipality of San Pedro, Nuevo León, approximately in the valley of Monterrey. This starting point defines the configuration of the project. The privileged environment, with a slight slope that descends to the south and some main views that open in the same direction, allowed the project to adapt naturally.

Ranch Dressing in Mill Valley, California is a residential transformation by Oakland-based Buttrick Projects Architecture+Design. The remodel takes the form of a series of volumes that inserted at the perimeter of this '60s-era boomerang shaped home to remedy the staid quality of the previous interior geometry and make the landscape more tangible from inside.

Originally built as a modest beachfront cabin in the 1960s, and subsequently modified through a series of piecemeal renovations, by the time our client acquired the house its design integrity had long ceased to exist. The forested property, however, was ideally suited to the creation of a quiet refuge with direct connections to nature.

Named for its butterfly-inspired angular canopies that adorn the project’s exterior, Folded Wings is a speculative office campus designed by Form4 Architecture in the technology epicenter of Palo Alto, California.

The project is located nearby the “The Skyline Coast”, a popular tourist attraction in Sanya, Hainan, enjoying vast and open seascape and surrounded by the lovely sound of crashing waves, which can relieve people’s spirits in the immersive blue natural ambience.

If natural occurrences could change the climate easily, how should we control it? Taal volcano in the Philippines is one of the most dangerous active volcanoes in the world. It has erupted many times, and people are always threatened, but the Taal volcano has more geothermal energy than others.
