Lightly Weighted by Oli Booth Architecture
Lightly Weighted, by Oli Booth Architecture, reconsiders the idea that inner-urban living needs to compromise on feeling reclusive and calm. Perched in an elevated position, the modest two-bedroom home feels removed and transportive, despite being embedded amongst residences in the Auckland suburb of Grey Lynn.

Ethr ClubHaus
Ethr ClubHaus, nestled in the heart of Abu Dhabi, is a refined community space where contemporary dining meets thoughtful design. Designed by Shell&Core, the space takes inspiration from the striking geological formations of Buhais, an archeological site, incorporating raw materials such as green ophiolite, limestone, copper, and tree bark. These elements weave together rich brown and beige tones, creating a dramatic yet airy atmosphere. Read more on the Journal.

Cedar Chevron by RTA Studios
The family's passion for boating, their lakeside location, and a multi-generational use space, was RTA Studio's brief - resulting in a holiday house inspired by three boat-shed forms, sitting on the edge of Lake Taupō. Somewhat simple in form at first glance, the challenge was to create a house that captured some of the nostalgia of the old Taupō fishing baches, whilst offering a larger, modern, and more flexible programme.
