The Urban Oasis is a project designed by SIAN Architects. Nestled within the bustling urban landscape of North India, this private residence celebrates the juxtaposition of industrial vigour and serene living. Unlike most residences where the focus is on creating spaces that overlook expansive open greens, this building exemplifies bringing the outdoors into urban living with an introverted architectural concept. Characterised by porous massing that underpins the whole layout and facade, it presents an intriguing interplay of volumes and textures— defining its own vocabulary of built and unbuilt spaces.

Located in Tribeca, New York City, this 1,900-square-foot loft designed by Christopher Jeffrey Architects occupies the sixth floor of a historic warehouse building constructed in 1920. The building features thick brick exterior walls, arched interior bearing walls, and floors and ceilings framed with rough-sawn solid wood timbers, showcasing its industrial origins and distinctive architectural appeal that captures the essence of its historic significance. The interior of the loft has been completely reimagined, with all original elements removed and new partitions added to create a modern, open living space tailored for a vibrant family lifestyle.

In-Kind House is a project designed by GO’C. At 1,900 square feet, this project is a modest new build atop the existing concrete stem walls of the previous house. A high shed roof with exposed wood beams and clerestory windows create bright and open spaces. Large lift-and-slide doors to the south draw the garden into the main living space and allow the interior to flow out to the deck and outdoor kitchen. Beyond the deck, a lush northwest garden rises up a small hill to the south. Receding layers of large moss-covered rockery, ferns, and native trees provide a soft and natural backdrop for the main living spaces. Expansive windows and direct connections to the garden allow this house to feel welcoming and spacious. Photography by Kevin Scott.
The FF project, developed by Zalc Arquitetura, involves the unification of two 50 m² apartments into a single 100 m² space in the city of São Paulo, in Brazil. Combining a bold industrial style with a touch of coziness, the project reflects the predominance of sober tones, such as black and exposed concrete. The challenge was to balance the coldness of these materials with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Photography by Guilherme Pucci.
