Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Strath Creek, a red brick bungalow from the 1960s stood out as an unexpected and incongruous sight. With a layout more suited to suburban living, the value of retaining the existing structure appeared limited at first glance. However, the challenge of recycling and transforming the bungalow into a modern, sustainable, and leasable holiday home proved to be a fulfilling undertaking for Borland Architecture.

The Gindi TLV towers have long since become a Tel Aviv icon that changed the city’s skyline. On the 45th floor of one of them lies the spacious apartment of a former kibbutz couple and their teenage daughter, where every detail is extraordinary: from a dramatic and powerful wall that creates a total separation between public and private spaces, through a pair of mature olive trees planted in the center of the living room, to fantastic artworks hung on the walls. Interior designer Oron Milshteain shares the work process and unconventional choices. Photography by Elad Gonen.
The house designed by Inon Ben-David is located in an expansion area in the Lower Galilee in Israel. The plot area is about half a dunam (approximately 0.12 acres), and the built-up area is about 250 square meters (2,690 square feet) spread over two floors. On the entrance level, the shared functions were planned: living room, kitchen, dining area, safe room (Mamad), guest bathroom, and a family work area situated under the staircase. On the upper residential floor, the master bedroom, three children’s rooms, and a general bathroom serving the family’s four children were designed. Photography by Nimrod Levy.

CAMPout is a project designed by Faulkner Architects with interior design by NICOLEHOLLIS. A San Francisco family asked us to help them expand an existing property near Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The site sits on a north facing slope and looks down to the Martis Valley and up to Lookout Mountain through a natural screen of 100-year-old Jeffrey pine trees. In our world today, much of the built work is driven by visual appearance. Photography by Joe Fletcher.
