The Redaction House by Johnsen Schmaling Architects can be described as a wooden box resting on a stepped brick podium. Eye-catching due to its original silhouette and exterior finishes, the dwelling was especially developed for a textile artist and her young family. According to the architects, the new building sits on a narrow sliver of land on a small suburban lake, surrounded by prosaic spec homes in Oconomowoc in Wisconsin, USA. The wooden cube is clad in horizontal and vertical cedar. Narrow painted boards create an unexpected filigree of colors, reminding passers-by that this is an artist’s retreat.

The rooms are grouped around a two-story living hall, where the apertures are stacked vertically to frame views of the sky and the bluff's deciduous foliage. The building is deliberately introvert, functioning as an optic filter that frames the limited lake vista while strategically editing out views of the built-up context.” [Photography by John J.

Envisioned and implemented by Geometrix Design, Axioma Apartment in Moscow presents a futuristic, almost robotic dimension. After completing several other Moscow apartments in the same tone, architects Miroshkin Michael and Helen Miroshkina embarked on the black&white decorating adventure that came with this 130 square-meter crib. The name of the residential complex (Axioma) gave the duo a clear image of the design scheme: monochrome, devoid of unnecessary details, but with a strong personality.

As you open the doors to this apartment, you are given a glimpse of a high-tech future. Glossy white wall panels form a clear architectural language throughout. Hidden behind these hypnotizing surfaces, there are plenty of lockers and cabinets for storage. The living room and kitchen are separated by a glass wall. As you look from one functional area towards the other, it is difficult to say when one ends and when the other begins. Geometry is a defining theme for the interior scheme; lines run through the length of the ceiling, making for original modern  lighting fixtures. [Photography: Alexander Kamachkin]
