Description: Across small cottages and lavish villas beach houses and forest refuges discover the world's finest crop of new homes. This cutting - edge global digest features such talents as Shigeru Ban and Marcio Kogan alongside up - and - coming names like Aires Mateus Xu Fu - Min Vo Trong Nghia Desai Chia and Shunri Nishizawa. Here there are homes in Australia and New Zealand from China and Vietnam in the United States and Mexico and on to less expected places like Ecuador and Costa Rica. The result is a sweeping survey of the contemporary house and a revelation that homes across the globe may have more in common than expected. Among guava trees and abandoned forts in Western India is a sanctuary designed for and by Kamal Malik of Malik Architecture. The House of Three Streams is a sprawling spectacle with high ceilings verandas and pavilions perched atop a ridge overlooking two ravines. A medley of steel glass wood and stone the house weaves along the contour of the landscape almost as an extension of the forest. Encina House by Aranguren & Gallegos an elegant sloping structure reminiscent of a gazebo similarly inhabits its surrounding vista. Ensconced in a pine forest north of Madrid the lower level is embedded in rock and connected to the upper by a natural stone wall. Shinichi Ogawa's Seaside House is an immaculate two - story minimalist marvel in Kanagawa that overlooks the Pacific. Its living area spills onto a cantilevered terrace and infinity pool almost dissolving into the ocean as one seamless entity. In Vietnam Shunri Nishizawa's House in Chau Doc exudes tropical sophistication with exposed timber beams woven bamboo plants concrete panels and inner balconies and terraces. Its corrugated iron panels act as moveable walls and shutters ushering in views of surrounding rice fields. These homes along with more than 50 others are each remarkably distinct in design. They all however toe the line between inside and outside each one symbiotic with its surroundings.
