Traditional building solutions tend to work well in their respective contexts, as they have withstood hundreds of years of testing and improvements, and use techniques and materials available locally. Although globalization and the democratization of access to technology have brought more comfort and new opportunities to humanity, it has also led to the homogenization of solutions in the construction sector and a dependence on global supply chains for construction materials and components. This has also caused a rupture in how knowledge is passed on to new generations and, eventually, the disappearance of traditions.

In the quiet town of Navsari, near Surat, we have crafted a 12,000 square ft family residence designed to reflect the harmony of architecture and engineering. This G+2 structure includes a thoughtfully laid-out foyer, vestibule, drawing room, living area, two kitchens, five bedrooms, a multipurpose room, a second-floor lounge, and a courtyard with a patio. Our approach has always been about marrying proportions and balance, drawing inspiration from master architects who understand that even a 25mm variation can shift the character of a space. In a time of visual consumption, we believe in guiding our clients through a journey of understanding the nuances of design and the life it brings to their home.

Designed by Billard Leece Partnership (BLP) for Health Infrastructure and Sydney Children's Hospitals Network, the Children's Hospital Westmead is part of the largest investment in paediatric health in NSW in 25 years. Alongside the new Sydney Children's Hospital, Randwick & Minderoo Children's Comprehensive Cancer Centre, which opened at the end of 2025, the Westmead redevelopment forms part of a broader Network vision: two distinct hospitals, designed in dialogue, each responding to its own geography, community, and clinical role while advancing a shared ambition for contemporary children's healthcare across the state.

When is a form still circular or rectangular? In twentieth-century modernism, this question was largely absent. Architecture was built on clarity, reduction, and formal purity. Influenced by architects such as Le Corbusier and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, modernist design established a visual order based on rational geometry, industrial materials, and the rejection of ornament. Circle and square, function and expression, were kept strictly apart—a logic that dictated the rigid, modular layouts of traditional bathrooms for decades.

Ningshan LuZhai Cottages is a hotel located at the foot of a small mountain within the village settlement called Yuwan Village, Ningshan County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, China. The site is rich in natural resources, with a beautiful environment and well-preserved ecological balance, serving as a habitat for crested ibises. Situated on the terraced slopes, the outer periphery of the slope is surrounded by retaining walls made of rubble. In front of the site, there is an open view of farmland, leaving a lasting impression.

Color Pit is a site-specific ground intervention realized within a school playground in Beirut following the 2020 explosion. Developed by Studio Etienne Bastormagi in collaboration with Sandra Richani, and Nada Borgi, the project is rooted in the studio's broader Let's Play philosophy, which frames play as a civic and therapeutic act. In a post-disaster context where reconstruction efforts largely focused on shelter and infrastructure, the playground was identified as an overlooked yet vital space—one where children would eventually return, and where joy, movement, and imagination could quietly support recovery.

The story of this residence begins before the project itself: we assisted the clients in acquiring a plot of land that, due to its pronounced topographic characteristics, offered an accessible price within the family's budget. The lot nonetheless brought together essential attributes — favorable access conditions, a privileged relationship with the natural landscape, and proximity to the family's urban routines — making the land+construction equation both viable and strategic.
