Chicureo House stretches low across its golf-course edge in Colina, Chile, a precise single-family house by Nicolas Loi Architects. The project organizes domestic life between a concrete plinth and a deep timber roof that temper the harsh sun while keeping living areas connected to the landscape. Generous interstitial zones pull daily routines outdoors, from barbecues to poolside evenings, so the house reads as a long porch facing the fairways.

Your flooring has a huge impact on the look, feel and functionality of your living room. It acts as the foundation of your entire design scheme, providing a backdrop for your furnishings and decor. Replacing it can completely transform the space, but it can be a massive project. Fortunately, you can find everything you need — from diverse flooring options to design and installation solutions — in the best flooring store in your area.

Casa PZ draws together alpine context and refined interior thinking in an apartment in Courmayeur, Italy by DC|EF studio. The project reworks a compact mountain residence into a layered, contemporary setting where custom pieces and calibrated light reframe everyday rituals. Within this tight envelope, the studio orchestrates a sequence of convivial rooms and quiet retreats that echo local material culture while maintaining a crisp, modern edge.

House JM stands as a calm, contemporary single-family house in Ljubljana, Slovenia, shaped by the narrow urban plot around it. Designed by SoNo arhitekti in 2024, the residence stacks three levels to separate shared living, private rooms, and support areas while still reading as one clear volume. Inside, light, glazing, and a raised ground floor set a measured rhythm for everyday family life.

Ft. Greene Brownstone stands on a tree-lined block in Brooklyn, Kings County, NY, United States, its restored facade anchoring the row. Sherman Architects reworks the landmark house as a tall, light-filled home where a family moves between books, play, and garden. Behind the rebuilt stoop and cast-stone ornament, the interior shifts from intimate rooms to a double-height living volume that opens wide to the backyard for daily use.

Mission Canyon Residence sits high above Santa Barbara, CA, United States, where NMA Architects align coastal light, ocean air, and mountain views around a resilient hillside house. The project replaces a home lost in the 2009 Jesusita Wildfire and rethinks indoor–outdoor living through careful siting, fire-conscious construction, and climate-responsive comfort. Every room leans into a distinct panorama while maintaining year-round livability and safety.

La Conception III sits in La Conception, Canada, as a house by Nicolas Chaudier architecte that works with the grain of its wooded hillside site. Local cedar, deep glazing, and stratified volumes respond to the forest while organizing family life inside. Interior rooms track a gentle shift from communal living to more private zones, so the house feels rooted in its setting and tuned to daily routines.

House on the Edge of the Plain sits at the soft edge of Murska Sobota, Slovenia, where suburban plots meet the long horizon of the Pannonian plain. Skupaj Arhitekti use a spare, low house to translate that threshold condition into architecture, pairing exposed concrete with loose gravel and generous glazing. The result is a calm, minimalist house that reads as part landscape, part dwelling.
