Warm woods, soft neutrals and tailored details give this home a quiet sense of sophistication. Cooperman & Co. Interiors carried a consistent material palette through the home with Calacatta Fendi marble, continuous-grain walnut and brass. It’s a refined take on modern transitional interiors, with a thoughtful balance of craftsmanship and everyday living.

Restaurant Iris occupies an extraordinary setting inside Salmon Eye, a floating aquaculture visitor centre designed by Kvorning Design in the Hardangerfjord. For the restaurant interior, Norm Architects introduced walnut wood, upholstered furniture, bespoke carpets and softly curved elements that follow the building’s unusual geometry.

There’s a lot going on in this Montecito home, and that’s part of its charm. The 1928 Spanish Colonial Revival still has its original Spanish tiles, arches and plaster fireplaces, while richer details bring a very different energy into the rooms. Deep cabernet cabinetry, Italian lighting, zebra-patterned marble and vintage-inspired furniture give the house a collected, lived-in feel.

Fifteen years after its original completion, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art has grown with a 114,000-square-foot expansion by Safdie Architects. A series of pavilions adds galleries, education spaces, amenities and a new bridge while extending the museum’s original looped circulation into a figure-eight across two stream-fed ponds. Southern yellow pine beams, copper cladding, generous overhangs and floor-to-ceiling glass connect the architecture closely to its Ozark setting.

MKCA looked to cruise ships and Modernist experiments in compact living for this 600-square-foot holiday home aboard the world’s largest residential yacht.
Two pod-like volumes organise the private functions, while folding furniture allows the dining area to transform into a second bedroom. Continuous aluminium ribs run throughout the apartment, concealing doors, appliances and panel divisions while creating a greater sense of height.

Architects tend to travel differently from other tourists. They read a city through its buildings before anything else, notice a cornice line before a menu, and can lose twenty minutes in a museum lobby without ever reaching the exhibit. For them, a destination isn't about beaches or restaurants. It becomes something closer to a syllabus, written in stone, steel, and glass.

These six cities are great for architects and architecture lovers to wander and admire for days: https://www.modlar.com/news/432/6-cities-every-architect-should-visit
