Old Golden House / Mutabile Arquitetura

Located on a steep slope in Nova Lima, Minas Gerais, Casa Ouro Velho folds and opens across multiple levels, establishing a continuous and respectful dialogue with the natural landscape and the exuberance of the Atlantic Forest. Designed as a direct response to the topography and surrounding forest, the project is organized into levels that embrace the terrain, establishing a continuous dialogue between architecture and nature, with precise cuts that ensure the preservation of the larger native trees on the lot.

Soldalhus Nursing Home - Sunvalley House / Cubo Arkitekter

The new Soldalhus Nursing Home in Northern Jutland provides 96 dementia-friendly residences, a central community building, and extensive shared and service areas. Designed by Cubo Arkitekter with a clear human focus, the project emphasizes dignity, independence, and connection for residents, staff, and visitors. The name Soldalhus, directly translated as "Sunvalley House," reflects the design's emphasis on light, openness, and integration with the surrounding landscape. Set on the edge of Northern Jutland's characteristic hill formations, Soldalhus links the landscape with the nearby town of Sindal. Its placement strengthens local urban life, creating new pathways between the care center and the city while offering open views of meadows and wetlands. Subtle terracing and reshaping of the terrain create a sheltered microclimate, using landforms and planting to temper prevailing westerly winds and provide comfortable outdoor environments year-round.

House in Mesão Frio / felixARQS - Daniel félix Arquitectos

At the quiet end of a street, integrated in a cluster of buildings that belong to the same extended family, there was a ruin. A young and growing family decided to rebuild it, due to a deep emotional connection, as it once belonged to the client’s grandparents.  Right next to it stands her parents’ house, where she lived for many years. The desire to reinhabit this ruin stems from a longing return to a place of memories and to live close to family core, where the client’s parents, now grandparents, will closely witness the growth of their grandchildren.
