Casa ai prati by ACT_ROMEGIALLI
The project site is at the edge of the built area of the village of Regoledo in the municipality of Cosio Valtellina.The site of the house is limited by an area of small “scattered” residences and a large green space called “Prati del Bitto” which extends from the north of the site to the banks of the river Adda.

From this demarcation between habited areas and agricultural land, the project is born. Stone walls and “muracche” even today define the limits of cultivated fields and provided inspiration for the project.
The dimension of the lot was sufficiently large to allow the project plan to have the living spaces on one level.

House Rio by Krupinski/Krupinska Arkitekter
The site is exceptional: a dramatic slope covered in lush vegetation, landing flush with the surface of Lake Järlasjön. The house, on the other hand – a once modest 1920’s single-family self-build which had been eagerly, but not always carefully, expanded in every direction during the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s – was quite unremarkable. However, the young couple was smitten – they wanted a house with traces of time and stories to tell.

Having intimately studied the current state as well as the historical changes to the house, the original 1920s ground floor, and its 1970s expansion were identified as most worthy of preservation.

RVTK Residential Building by Massner Architects
The family residence is located above the market town Silandro, on the south-facing slope of the Val Venosta Montesole Mountain. Nestled on the steep and warm dry slopes we find single and multiple family homes with gardens as well as vineyards.

On the opposite side of the valley, the Montetramontana mountain with its flush meadows and forests rises to impressive summits. The valley plain spreads graciously from east to west, steadily inclining to the west towards Resia Pass, here and there interrupted by alluvial fans.

Novello Abbey Museum Auditorium by MoDus Architects .architects
Founded in 1142 and nestled within the vineyard-lined basin of the Eisack valley near Bressanone (Italy), the abbey not only represents one of the most significant architectural ensembles in South Tyrol today but also stands as a preeminent Augustinian Abbey of its time.

Like a small, self-sufficient village, each building within the monastery complex played a specific role: the constituent churches, chapels, mills, workshops, wine cellars, and farmhouses formed an indelible nucleus—only a portion of which has been converted into a museum.

ShineMaker Residence by CLB Architects
A series of undulating tectonic structures set against an aspen grove near Wilson, Wyoming, this mountain home serves as a creative retreat for a California-based couple.

The 35-acre property is set at the base of the Tetons and encompasses several ecosystems, with old-growth forests merging into stands of young pine and aspen trees before transitioning into rolling meadows.
