  • House in Divčibare | EXE STUDIO | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | House | The Divčibare Mountain Home, designed by Belgrade-based EXE STUDIO and completed in 2015, is an asymmetrical holiday residence located on the hillside of Mount Maljen in western Serbia. The 76-square-meter house was built into the slope to minimize its impact on the site, which, despite being overrun with pine trees, retains the character of an open field. The design is a study in contrasts, merging traditional mountain architecture with contemporary aesthetics through its distinctive dual-volume structure. The house is composed of two main sections, each defined by a different material and texture. One volume is clad in near-black timber shingles, referencing original mountain homes and housing the sheltered porch and entrance, as well as a bedroom above. The other volume features a smooth white ceramic surface and contains the combined living, dining, and kitchen area. A large picture window on the south side of the white volume creates a strong connection between the interior and the idyllic pine forest and hilly terrain outside. The interior maintains a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the focus to remain on the large window and the surrounding landscape. The design and construction process was constrained by a relatively low budget and the site's inaccessibility, which led the architects to create an architecture of simple, robust gestures using locally available materials like pine wood from nearby forests. The resulting structure, with its monochromatic and asymmetrical form, successfully blends with its natural surroundings while offering a modern, contemplative retreat for its inhabitants.

  • Andvik | Mer Architects | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | House | Designed by Helsinki-based Mer Arkkitehdit, the Andvik project is a modern villa thoughtfully integrated into the rugged, rocky terrain of Hanko, a historic Finnish seaside town. Surrounded by pine forests, the residence is a contemporary interpretation of coastal living, respecting both the landscape and the area's architectural heritage. The house features a bi-level structure, with its lower level partially submerged into the bedrock, a technique that minimizes the visual impact of the building and anchors it firmly to the cliffside. The main living floor sits perched on the cliff top, offering expansive and direct views of the Baltic Sea. This elevated position allows the house to feel protected yet completely connected to the dramatic coastal environment. The exterior is clad in spruce and painted with traditional linseed-oil paint, a nod to the 19th-century buildings characteristic of the region. This choice of material and finish helps the villa blend into its surroundings and weathers gracefully over time. Inside, the design creates a strong visual link between the interior and the rugged, natural surroundings. Large glass walls frame the dramatic landscape, bringing the sea and forest views directly into the living spaces. The interior palette is a mix of white and wood, complemented by unique details that reference the natural world. For instance, leaf-green floor tiles at the entrance mirror the surrounding pine forests, while rocks from the site itself are incorporated into both the interior and exterior. The living, dining, and kitchen areas feature retro-style furniture, adding a touch of character and warmth to the contemporary shell. A flat roof over the submerged lower level is topped with a wooden deck and balustrades, creating a large, sheltered terrace accessible from the main living area. Above the upper floor, a gabled, zinc-covered roof provides robust protection against the area's often harsh wind and sea spray.

  • Konga | Mette Fredskild | ZHIG

    HOSPITALITY | Modular Cabin | In collaboration with the Lithuanian company Konga Cabins, Danish hospitality architect Mette Fredskild has designed the Konga cabin, a series of off-grid and modular tiny homes built with sustainability and a close relationship with nature in mind. The cabins are prefabricated in Lithuania and designed for easy assembly, allowing them to be installed on-site in as little as one day without a specific foundation. This makes them highly adaptable and suitable for remote getaways, resorts, or even as backyard houses. Drawing on Fredskild's experience designing hotels, the Konga cabins blend hotel-level comfort with an immersive outdoor experience. The design focuses on Scandinavian simplicity and minimalism, using a compact footprint to create a functional and inviting space. The interior layout, while minimalist, is thoughtfully designed to maximize space and includes essential amenities, a kitchen, and a sleeping area. The open-plan layout dissolves traditional room boundaries, enhancing the sense of spaciousness. The cabins feature a dark, charred wood exterior, which is both durable and visually striking. Treated with a weather-resistant oil, the charred panels offer longevity and help the structure blend harmoniously with its surroundings. Different-sized windows are strategically placed to offer unique views of the environment from various positions within the cabin, such as while standing, sitting, or lying in bed. The generous use of glazing allows natural light to flood the interiors and creates a strong visual connection to nature. Sustainable design is a core tenet of the Konga cabins. They can be built as fully off-grid houses, powered by a rooftop solar system and equipped with rainwater collection. The cabins also make a conscious effort to minimize environmental impact by incorporating upcycled timber and offcuts from Konga's kitchen production into the construction and interior furnishings. This sustainable and resourceful approach gives each cabin a unique identity.

We are By the Many, For the Many. COX seeks to do more with less, tapping into resourceful Australian culture to build value through ingenuity. We strive for quality through our beliefs in equality and opportunity. We embed culture in our designs, taking time to listen and understand cultural context and social impacts. We continuously seek the brightest minds to innovate design, process, and typology. We welcome collaboration, from both traditional and disruptive sources, should it have the potential to contribute to better design. Our history in Australian architecture began with the transformative Tocal Agricultural College in New South Wales. Epitomising the renowned Sydney School, the project had a deep and sensitive understanding of context and place, blended with honest and expressive structure and craft. This has informed the work of COX ever since. This history has established key principles we continue to prioritise today. One being the planning of cities and design of buildings that are adaptable to change – cultural, social, technological, and economic. The other is the creation of sustainable spaces – environmental strategies that are embedded, rather than added, to our designs. Today, we have offices across Australia and New Zealand, working on projects of international significance. Our team brings experience and enthusiasm to every new project and client. Our projects demonstrate a dedication to research as well as an ability to work with clients to deliver successful design solutions on time and budget. What we bring to our work transcends design. Our innovative technology and structural design solutions place emphasis and value on the design of core elements. Our structures designed as destinations to bring people together to share experiences that are unique to their time and place. source: coxarchitecture.com.au Category Convention Center Post Type Building Project Type EXHIBITION AND CONVENTION HALL Country Indonesia Year 2015 Area 220,000 m² Client Sinarmasland / Kompas Group Photographers Christopher Frederick Jones www.zhiig.com Premium Member Civil Engineer Rosa Garcia Collaborate 3D Design Suggest Materials Suggest Product Add Request Design © ZHIG Team Materials Suggested by Manufacturers: Model Full Name Details Details View more

We are By the Many, For the Many. COX seeks to do more with less, tapping into resourceful Australian culture to build value through ingenuity. We strive for quality through our beliefs in equality and opportunity. We embed culture in our designs, taking time to listen and understand cultural context and social impacts. We continuously seek the brightest minds to innovate design, process, and typology. We welcome collaboration, from both traditional and disruptive sources, should it have the potential to contribute to better design. Our history in Australian architecture began with the transformative Tocal Agricultural College in New South Wales. Epitomising the renowned Sydney School, the project had a deep and sensitive understanding of context and place, blended with honest and expressive structure and craft. This has informed the work of COX ever since. This history has established key principles we continue to prioritise today. One being the planning of cities and design of buildings that are adaptable to change – cultural, social, technological, and economic. The other is the creation of sustainable spaces – environmental strategies that are embedded, rather than added, to our designs. Today, we have offices across Australia and New Zealand, working on projects of international significance. Our team brings experience and enthusiasm to every new project and client. Our projects demonstrate a dedication to research as well as an ability to work with clients to deliver successful design solutions on time and budget. What we bring to our work transcends design. Our innovative technology and structural design solutions place emphasis and value on the design of core elements. Our structures designed as destinations to bring people together to share experiences that are unique to their time and place. source: coxarchitecture.com.au Category Sports Venue Post Type Building Project Type VELODROME Country Indonesia Year 2018 Area Client ES Global Ltd Photographers Aaron Pocock www.zhiig.com Premium Member Civil Engineer Rosa Garcia Collaborate 3D Design Suggest Materials Suggest Product Add Request Design © ZHIG Team Materials Suggested by Manufacturers: Model Full Name Details Details View more

Our Studio is a collaboration of architects and designers that believe architecture is a practice of optimism. We approach our projects with the attitude that to make great places, you must believe in the future, but also remember the past. Studio Libeskind’s architecture emerges from the idea that a building should be expressive and reflect contemporary life. Innovation is at the core of our design process. We believe that bold design must be realized with sustainable technology and we strongly believe that the art of architecture lies in creating a maximum impact within the constraints of budgets and functionality. We know from experience that great architecture comes from working with great clients; however, architecture is a public art and we hold ourselves accountable not only to the client, but to the communities, and cities in which we build. Daniel and his partner Nina Libeskind established Studio Daniel Libeskind in Berlin, Germany, in 1989 after winning the competition to build the Jewish Museum Berlin. In February 2003, Studio Daniel Libeskind moved its headquarters from Berlin to New York City when Daniel Libeskind was selected as the master planner for the World Trade Center redevelopment. source: libeskind.com Category Facade design Post Type Building Project Type COMMERCIAL Country South Korea Year 2005 Area - Client Hyundai Development Corporation Photographers www.zhiig.com Premium Member Interior Designer Huang Wei Collaborate 3D Design Suggest Materials Suggest Product Add Request Design © ZHIG Team Materials Suggested by Manufacturers: Model Full Name Details Details View more

  • Studio House | William Samuels Architects | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Modular House | Located in Nelson, New Zealand, the Studio House is a 42-square-meter relocatable home designed by architect William Samuels and his partner, Hannah D'Arcy, and completed in 2022. The project was an experimental, hands-on response to New Zealand's housing crisis, with the couple building the home themselves over 18 months on a limited budget. The project demonstrates an affordable and sustainable path to homeownership, prioritizing liveability and a smaller footprint over size. The house is composed of two timber-framed, barrel-vaulted modules placed side-by-side. This modular approach allows the home to be easily disassembled and relocated via a flatbed truck, offering a flexible and "permanently relocatable" living option. Corrugated metal panels clad the exterior, while a barrel-vaulted ceiling brings in natural light through large, curved windows at either end of each module. The interior of the Studio House uses natural materials, including rimu timber cladding on the walls, and contains no paint. The barrel-vaulted ceilings create a sense of spaciousness, while the window frames are hidden within the wall cavity to provide an uninterrupted view of the surrounding tree canopies. The layout features a loft above the bathroom, which serves as a cozy reading room with views, and a large sliding glass door opens onto a deck to extend the living space outdoors. The house is designed to evolve over time, with the option to add more modules for bedrooms or workspaces in the future.

This modular approach allows the home to be easily disassembled and relocated via a flatbed truck, offering a flexible and "permanently relocatable" living option. Corrugated metal panels clad the exterior, while a barrel-vaulted ceiling brings in natural light through large, curved windows at either end of each module. The interior of the Studio House uses natural materials, including rimu timber cladding on the walls, and contains no paint. The barrel-vaulted ceilings create a sense of spaciousness, while the window frames are hidden within the wall cavity to provide an uninterrupted view of the surrounding tree canopies. The layout features a loft above the bathroom, which serves as a cozy reading room with views, and a large sliding glass door opens onto a deck to extend the living space outdoors. The house is designed to evolve over time, with the option to add more modules for bedrooms or workspaces in the future.

  • Home in High Latitude | hyperCity architects | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Tiny Home | The project "Home in High Latitude," located in Harbin, China, was a renovation project undertaken by hyperCity architects. The house is situated in a large courtyard featuring historic Russian-style eclectic buildings, with the architects aiming to create a contemporary solution that respects this historic context. Originally a small security guard's bungalow measuring only 28.77 square meters, the structure had been expanded over time to serve as a family home. The main challenge for the architects was to satisfy the living needs of a family of three within the limited space while ensuring the renovated structure maintained a respectful dialogue with the surrounding protected buildings. Instead of simply replicating the historical Russian style, the design sought to strike a balance between modern living requirements and the historic neighborhood. To contend with Harbin's famously cold climate, a new foundation was dug two meters below ground to avoid damage from frost expansion in the frozen soil. The project was completed in 2017.

  • Pinkney Neighborhood House | Studio 804 | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | House + ADU | Located in Lawrence, Kansas, the Pinkney Neighborhood House was designed and built by graduate students at the University of Kansas's Studio 804 in 2023. This sustainable infill project, situated on the former site of a demolished home on Indiana Street, showcases modern design while adhering to the scale and vernacular of the historic neighborhood with its gabled roof forms. The house is Studio 804's 18th project to achieve LEED Platinum certification, the highest level of sustainable practice. The project features a main house and an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) above a detached, one-car garage, which promotes urban density and provides rental income opportunities for the owner. The design prioritizes a connection to the environment, particularly the backyard, which is adjacent to a flood zone and feels like a secluded, forested retreat. Inside the main house, an open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area offers flexibility for the occupants. The interior features low-VOC finishes, and a combination of louvers and operable windows ensures passive heating and cooling, while an energy recovery ventilator manages fresh air circulation in the airtight building envelope. The exterior is clad in Nichiha's glossy black Miraia architectural wall panels, giving it a modern and sleek appearance. Sustainability measures include a rainscreen ventilated facade, a 16-panel solar array, a permeable driveway to minimize stormwater runoff, and a rain garden on the eastern side of the property. The house also has energy-efficient windows and doors, Energy Star-rated appliances, and wiring for an electric car charger in the garage.

  • Casa Prisma | Smiljan Radić | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | House | Completed in 2019, Casa Prisma is a secluded 184-square-meter retreat nestled in Conguillío National Park, Chile, designed by architect Smiljan Radić. The project is a conscious "exercise in repetition and replication," where Radić pays homage to two previous designs: Japanese architect Kazuo Shinohara's 1974 Prism House and his own 1997 Room built on the island of Chiloé. The off-grid, prefab cabin is composed of two distinct black volumes placed on a massive elevated timber deck, which offers views of the forest and a nearby solidified river of lava from a past volcanic eruption. Getting to the remote location required the building materials to be brought in via plane flights and car rides through rustic towns. The two structures of Casa Prisma each mirror one of the referenced designs. The first volume, known as the Room, features a gabled roof and was inspired by Radić's earlier work. The second, the Prism House, has a mono-pitched roof and replicates the isosceles triangle geometry of Shinohara's original design, including the interior's distinctive diagonal post. The exterior of both volumes is clad in black metal panels, with extensive glazing that allows light to pour into the spaces and frame panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness. The interior contains open-plan living and dining areas, with dorm-style bedrooms located in the upper A-frame section of one structure. Inside, red accent colors can be found on textiles and kitchenware, reminiscent of Radić's Room project. The home is designed for off-grid living, with solar panels and a battery bank providing power, and a wood-burning stove for heat.

Based in Santiago, he works in close collaboration with his wife, sculptor Marcela Correa, to create unique projects that explore the sensory and social conditions of materials. Radić often focuses on smaller-scale projects like experimental structures, installations, and residential buildings, but he has also undertaken larger commissions, including the 2014 Serpentine Pavilion in London, the VIK Winery in Chile, and the renovation of the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art. His work often challenges traditional architectural norms, using a "pretty ugliness" approach to produce bold and unexpected forms. Radić does not maintain a website, adding to his reputation as a "hermetic" artist.

  • Taieri Mouth Bach | Mason and Wales Architects | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Cottage | The Taieri Mouth Bach is a modern reinterpretation of the traditional, simple holiday cottage, or "bach," built by architect Regan Johnston for his family while he was working at Mason & Wales Architects. Located on a sand dune near a fishing village at the mouth of the Taieri River on New Zealand's South Island, the project was completed in 2013 and took only eight weeks to build. The modest 55-square-meter dwelling was designed with a simple gabled form and honest, natural, and robust materials, paying homage to the original, often handmade, fishing huts and baches of the area. The bach's straightforward and economical construction is balanced by a striking, fully-glazed end wall that offers expansive views of the surrounding dune, Moturata Island, and Taieri Beach. To minimize view obstruction while ensuring the structure's stability against high winds and earthquakes, the glazed gable end is reinforced with a system of steel tension rods arranged in an X pattern. An open-plan living area occupies most of the ground floor, featuring a vaulted ceiling that rises to the roof ridge. Another wall with large sliding glass doors opens the living space to a timber patio on the sunny north side. The kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and storage areas are located at the back of the house. The project has been praised for its simplicity, charm, and unquestionable sustainability, with minimal waste during design and construction. It was a recipient of a NZIA Residential Award and a Supreme Timber Building Award at the 2013 New Zealand Wood Awards.

  • House on Hill | Green Studio | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Tiny Home | The House on Hill is a minimalist, 15-square-meter off-grid tiny house designed by furniture maker Callan Green of Green Studio. Built in 2024 for under $20,000, the temporary retreat is located in the rolling foothills and eucalyptus forest near Sarsfield, Australia, at the beginning of the Great Alpine Road. The project was not approached as a traditional design exercise, but as a response to an inventory of salvaged materials that set the constraints for the construction. Its design was guided by a desire to highlight its natural surroundings and to exist lightly, with the potential to one day leave without a trace. The structure was built from a salvaged metal container that had a previous life receiving grain. The exterior is clad in corrugated metal sheets, giving it a rustic, utilitarian aesthetic that echoes the industrial heritage of the region. One notable feature is a circular opening in the roof, which creates a movable shadow that joyfully marks the passage of time inside the home. Despite its compact size, the interior feels spacious and open, thanks to large folding walls that can extend the living area to the outdoors. These large openings, along with mechanical veranda awnings made of steel and polycarbonate, create a dynamic transitional space that functions as a deck, boot room, and al fresco dining area. Inside, the home incorporates kitchen, living, dining, bedroom, and bathroom areas within its footprint. Salvaged timber, including century-old kauri pine and reclaimed Victorian Ash beams, was used to craft the interior's stunning timber finishes. Every piece of furniture, from serving plates and stools to shelving and storage, was custom-made for the project by Green Studio, maximizing the use of the limited space. A sliding timber screen separates the compact wet area. The overall effect is a small retreat that is deeply connected to its natural environment.
