Noas Studio / SahuquillodeArriba

Located in the Cabañal neighborhood of Valencia, just a few meters from the sea, this small space on Barraca Street is a meeting point for different disciplines—a flexible environment where design, ceramics, and creation coexist. From the start, the owner had a clear vision: it had to be an open, multipurpose, and ever-evolving space, capable of hosting anything from a shop to a graphic design studio, while also allowing for activities like
workshops or yoga classes.

The RA House / Fernandes Atem Arquitetos

The RA house was designed for clients who wanted to build their permanent home away from the urban center. The family, though large, had shrunk to its core when the adult children grew up and became independent. Therefore, the house needed to simultaneously focus on the couple's practicality while also providing ample space for frequent family gatherings around the kitchen and adjacent areas.

Scented Coffee / No10-Architects

Baoshan, a prominent global coffee-producing region, has witnessed a surge in boutique cafes amid its thriving industry. Scented Coffee, a longstanding local brand with deep roots in the area, has selected a 40-year-old heritage residence as the location for its third outlet. Covering an area of less than 300 square meters, the residence is a classic example of contemporary southwest Chinese architecture. It features a two-story wooden frame structure, with an open eastern facade, while the other three sides rely on brick walls for shear resistance and vertical load bearing. Adjacent to the south side of the main building is a trapezoidal brick concrete auxiliary structure.​

Cleft House / TAEP/AAP

Situated in a distinguished urban context, Cleft House emerges as a refined architectural response to its surroundings, engaging with the city's density and scale while deeply responding to the local climate. The design leverages light, voids, and materiality as foundational elements, shaping both the spatial experience and the house's relationship to the environment. The voids are not merely aesthetic but serve as dynamic spaces that mediate between the interior and exterior, between privacy and openness, while also playing a crucial role in environmental regulation.
