There are 3 words that best describe Rahimoana Villa and they are: luxury, luxury, and… luxury! This lovely piece of modern architecture is located in New Zealand’s Bay of Island, near the towns of Russel and Tapeka, built on the top of а sloping site. The property has a total of 30 hectares, extending to the bay, and a long private driveway that connects the house with the road. We called Rahimoana luxurious for a reason: it offers to its guests a 25-metre lap pool, heated outdoor spa, fancy gym, IR sauna, hi-tech office, a personal manager and housekeeper, fine New Zealand wines, French champagne, resident chef’s culinary masterpieces, a Porsche Cayenne Turbo in the garage and more.

Designed by Boora Architects the Kitchel residence is located in Northwest Portland, Oregon. Surrounded by forest and lush landscape, this unusual home’s boomerang shape aligns with the terrain. This house has 825-square-foot that includes a kitchen, a dining area, and a living room on the lower floor. A bedroom and office perch above in a dramatically contoured, sparsely decorated loft. The most interesting part of this house is the 38-ft. bookshelf that extends from the bedroom, through the hallway and into the office area. Finally you can see from the pictures that a rich natural finish palette connects the house to its site and smoothes transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Morelos, 60 kilometers South of Mexico City, is a warm place with an adequate amount of green vegetation. But don’t expect a conventional looking family abode from the Los Amates House, because this light, milky, and concrete frame really has what it takes to be an urban innovation amidst the green foliage surrounding it.
