S-House by STOPROCENT architekci

The S House designed by STOPROCENT architekci was designed for a middle-aged couple with a teenage daughter and an adorable dog. Throughout the design process, the emphasis was placed on achieving a balance between space, access to natural light, and the residents’ sense of privacy. The chosen location, despite its advantages, presented a few challenges: limited space, access from the southern side, and a massive building on the adjacent plot that strongly influenced the context.

Art Collector’s Residence by Palette Architecture

Art Collector’s Residence is a project designed by Palette Architecture. Located in the heart of Kips Bay, New York City, the Art Collector’s Residence is a remarkable architectural project that seamlessly combines the distinctive features of two eccentric apartments into one cohesive whole. The merger of these spaces presented physical and social challenges, as the residence spans two different buildings, each with its own unique history and dimensions. Designed to cater to the needs of a modern family, this extraordinary home carefully accommodates a couple of art connoisseurs while gracefully adapting to the ever-changing dynamics of family life and the demands of remote work. The result is a thoughtfully crafted dwelling that marries contemporary living, work, and play within an intricately designed architectural framework, making the Art Collector’s Residence a truly exceptional and one-of-a-kind home.
