The house is structurally sophisticated, but with a simple, restrained aesthetic, and concerned with the enhancement of the beach, the remaining coconut grove and the native vegetation of the slopes.

Gachak Villa is located in Gilan province around RoudKhan Castle. Gachak literally means white. The reason for using this word was that 90% of the materials used in this villa were white in order to make the spatial connection between inside and outside in such a way that the sense of outside is transferred to inside.

In the first visit to the land, with the first look, the design premise of this new project was clear. Nature in its best expression and respect for it. On the adjoining land, a gallery forest, a protected area, maintained the essence of the place. How to ignore all the strength and energy that was lived there? The leading role here is shared, natu...

Carlyle lane house sits on a small 500 m² block in the middle of Byron Bay. The clients, originally from Brazil, had a long-standing penchant for Mid-century architecture. The design process began with initial qualitative discussions with the clients about their love for views and gazing up at the ever changing sky.

Many people see architecture as a purely conceptual role. Experts dream up new construction projects, put the designs on paper and pass these on to other people to take care of the actual hands-on work involved in bringing buildings to life.
Located in the Uptown area of Phoenix, the residence is designed as a modern interpretation of 2 classic barn-like forms connected by a glass walkway. Each gable end of the home is clad in a three-dimensional panel system. The project is a high-performance home and is rated as a net-zero residence, creating more energy than it uses.
