Será at Sandy Ridge sits quietly among the rolling hills of West Virginia, where dense forest and open sky define the landscape. Designed and developed by DVN Development, the project embodies a modern yet deeply contextual approach to rural architecture. One that draws its language directly from nature.

The Flamboyant House emerges from a dialogue with a partially occupied territory. Situated on a 3,000 m² plot, the proposal begins with the recognition of three significant pre-existing elements: a constructed “L”-shaped house, an existing swimming pool, and a large flamboyant tree on the site. These conditions are not treated as limitations but embraced as structuring elements of the project, guiding decisions regarding placement, volumetry, and spatiality.

This House is located in the middle of a “hualles” and “ulmos” forest with the Colico Lake in the background. In order to achieve a minimal environmental intervention, the house sits on a base that allows wild flora to grow through it.

At once rational and poetic, the Syncube House was conceived as a spatial framework aligned with the rhythms of modern family life. Designed for a client already familiar with GeTs Architects’ work, the brief called for a home that combines functionality, clarity, and comfort within a relatively compact space. The design responds with a clear organizational structure across four levels, accommodating a comprehensive program; five bedrooms, a service bedroom, two living rooms, a gym, two kitchens, and utility rooms.

The CC House, also known as Quinta dos Carvalhos, is a project that stands out for its profound harmony between architecture and nature. Set on a two-hectare plot in the Leiria region, the house was designed with an unwavering respect for the surrounding environment, where the built structure does not impose itself on the landscape but rather adapts to it. The result is an organic and sensitive integration that transforms the house into a refuge where the natural and the constructed coexist in perfect harmony.

In search of belonging to the city, the new equipment seeks its references in the history of the place. It first finds its genesis in the morphology of nearby townhouses that have been built year after year, and of which the preserved house is part of the project.

Located on the banks of the San Pedro River, just outside the city of Valdivia, Chile, La Regalona house is a balancing act between local cultural heritage and the needs of a contemporary home. The guiding thread of the Regalona’s design is sustainability, which steered the creative process to reconcile the aesthetic aspects of the work with its integration into the landscape.

Defining the spatial identity of an overseas brand that deals with delicate fragrances is a profound challenge. In this project, we turned to the philosophy of ‘Daegang (大綱)’. While often used in modern Korean to mean ‘roughly’ or ‘in general,’ the Chinese characters tell a deeper story: 大 (Great) and 綱 (The Main Stay/Head-rope of a Net).

Nova Contemporary is a contemporary art gallery dedicated to supporting artists from Southeast Asia, with a particular focus on Thailand. In addition to serving as a platform for the acquisition and sale of works by represented artists, the gallery is open to the public, offering free access to its rotating exhibitions.

The “beating heart” of the Multnomah County Library system – because it keeps the entire system running – the new Operations Center is essential for effectively managing more than 500,000 catalogue materials and outreach services. This adaptive reuse project transformed a vacant 1995 grocery store into a bustling 73,000-square-foot workplace in vehicle-dominated east Portland. The Operations Center is the first project to meet Multnomah County’s ambitious fossil fuel-free buildings resolution and anticipates LEED Gold certification as well as Living Future Net-Zero Energy certification. The design prominently features more than 600 solar panels that will fully offset the building’s energy use.
