San Simón is a project designed by Vasconcelos Arquitectura. Located in the lush forest of San Simón el Alto, just 2.5 hours from Mexico City, this house redefines the concept of a family retreat in nature. Set on a 10,000 m2 plot surrounded by trees that reach up to 30 meters tall, the project is conceived as a reinterpretation of the traditional cabin, designed to disconnect from urban routines and foster a deep connection with nature and family.

Casa PI is a project designed by Benjamín Goñi Arquitectos, Claro + Westendarp Arquitectos. The site is located on the coastline and facing north with a view of the sea, which allows gathering the best sights and orientation in the same direction (uncommon situation in Chile).
Tanglewood is a project designed by ID Architecture. Nestled in the heart of Healing, this impressive Edwardian property hides a secret.
On approach to the house you will appreciate its impressive facade, the high deep-set porch and its mock Tudor panelling characterising the period but what you may not notice peeking at its side is a mysterious black box. Cloaked in black larch this box gives very little a way, it’s discrete, barely touching the original red facing brickwork of the house but where it does meet there is a slim, tall window adjoining a hidden door also finished in larch.

Peconic Bay Residence is a project designed by Christopher Jeffrey Architects. Overlooking the Peconic Bay, the wooded north facing site has tremendous views of the water and falls 40’ to the wetlands below. The program for the project was to create a compound that included a 1,500 s.f. single story house “pavilion” and a 400 s.f. pool-house with an in-ground pool with surrounding grade deck. A stand of existing holly trees covers the approach to the entry of the house where 5 long poured concrete walls set the building into the landscape, allowing for the slope of the property to visually extend thru the house’s interior.

The Break Residence is a project designed by MU Architecture. Built on the shore of Lake Revdor in the Laurentians, the Break Residence reveals its different faces depending on whether it is discovered from the water or the ground. Encapsulating the idea of “home”, this luxurious residence aids in fulfilling a man’s wish to build his final home on the land of his ancestors. Opening itself up over three levels, this spacious home serves as a place of welcoming and gathering for the small community formed by the few neighboring houses.

The site has a slight slope, which allows for great landscape depth. Photography by Fernando Guerra.
