Homes

The loft's original open floor plan, 13-foot-tall ceilings, and polished concrete floors remain. A modern, streamlined kitchen is now a central focal point.

The recently completed home—dubbed the Hawthorn House—was created for a couple who asked Edition Office directors Kim Bridgland and Aaron Roberts to apply rural design sensibilities to a more suburban context.

Uruguay’s beach towns dot the Atlantic coast northeast of the capital, Montevideo, becoming less crowded and developed the farther up you go. The second floor of Sticotti’s house floats above its neighbors to take in views of the ocean a couple of blocks away. It’s capped by a roof deck that the architect says is “great for watching fireworks.”

The Martello Tower Y is one of approximately a hundred Martello towers built in the early 19th century along the British coastline to defend against Napoleon's army.

The second-floor terrace forms a partial covering for the deck below it.

The L-shaped central space has high ceilings and holds the dining room, living room, kitchen, and work area.

After living ten years in another house he designed in Yokahama, Hosaka and his wife decided to move to Tokyo for an easier commute.

The 753-square-foot retreat has two bedrooms and a bath, and takes advantage of its rocky site.

When the home isn't inhabited, the brothers secure the building with heavy treated pine screens.

This airy home makes the most of its beachside location with sustainable design, careful siting, and an expansive, glazed facade.

The house was constructed with a wooden frame and cellulose insulation.
