The project for the new ÃO atelier and showroom at LAPI seeks to preserve the complex’s original characteristics: light and earthy tones, exposed brick, and metallic reinforcement structures. Between the atelier and the showroom, two planes of curtains made of light, translucent fabrics were arranged, which, while preserving the intimacy of the craft, allow visitors to glimpse traces of the ongoing activities. These structures also allow for different configurations according to the program and activities – such as launches, exhibitions, cocktails, and other events.

This residence is located in a residential area of Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City. Low-rise houses and a three-story office building, with an elementary school across the road to the south, surround the site. The plan places an L-shaped building at the site’s center, with a parking lot facing the southern road and a garden to the north. A large roof spanning both interior and exterior spaces was designed to envelop the entire site, aiming to create expansive and deep spatial qualities. The garden functions as an open “blank space” accessible to the neighborhood, guiding light and wind toward the surrounding homes.

In the heart of the Salento region countryside, in an area known for oil production and sheep rearing, Margine completes “Casa Ulìa” (Olive House in Salento dialect) a Mediterranean-style detached residence designed for a young couple – he a building contractor and she a professor – who wanted an oasis of peace, equipped with all comforts, just a few kilometers from Lecce.

In Milano, on the southern edge of the city, Casa LL originates from the reuse and transformation of a postmodern office building into a private residence. The project focused on shaping the void, the space between solids, through light and through raw, abstract materials.

Arupo rises serenely before the Ilaló volcano, in the Cornejo neighborhood of Conocoto. It is the home of a couple who embrace retirement not as an ending but as a threshold into a different time: slower in work, yet more intense in love for their children and grandchildren. An intimate refuge, yet open—ready to welcome family, friends, and the flow of life itself.

My Front Yard is a design project that redefines the traditional retail experience by prioritizing open-air circulation, communal “neighborhood” planning, and an unifying architectural language. Situated in front of a hillside in Phuket, the project avoids the monolithic “big box” retail approach, instead opting for a cluster of decentralized, low-rise pavilions and leisure spaces that invite curiosity and exploration.

A Dialogue Between Concrete and NatureSite Selection: Architectural Intuition The story of the project began with a pivotal moment of professional insight. The client had already purchased two plots in a forested area, but after evaluating the surrounding territory, the architectural team suggested a change. The reason was a breathtaking landscape nearby, dominated by ancient, towering pines. A strong intuition—which proved to be exactly right—suggested that these pines should become the central axis of the house, rather than just a backdrop.

Fermilab, the nation’s premier particle physics laboratory, is home to groundbreaking research that advances our understanding of the universe. Spanning 6,800 acres outside of Chicago, Fermilab’s campus has long been a hub of discovery, but its researchers and engineers were historically dispersed across multiple facilities. To bring them together and support ongoing particle physics research, including the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, Fermilab established the Helen Edwards Engineering Research Center (HEERC), named for the late Dr. Helen Edwards, a particle physicist who spent more than 40 years at the lab.

Located in São José do Rio Pardo, in the interior of São Paulo, Casa MM is a single-story residence of 630 square meters, designed by the Lamas Team for a couple who wished to live close to their daughters and grandchildren already settled in the same condominium. The request was clear: a ground-level, welcoming living space with a wooden structure, ceramic roof, and full accessibility.

The house in Da Nang is designed as an open and flexible living environment, where light, ventilation, and family connection are carefully reorganized to respond to the tropical climate and the constraints of a narrow urban townhouse. The project is located on a vacant 5 × 21 m plot within a residential neighborhood in Da Nang. The clients are a young family of four, a couple and their two children, seeking a simple and convenient home that supports everyday family life while encouraging interaction and togetherness.
