Blue Dream, USA, by Diller Scofidio + Renfro

Photographed for the first time by Iwan Baan since its completion in 2017, Blue Dream is a home in East Hampton with a sculptural fibreglass roof designed by New York studio Diller Scofidio + Renfro.

Sloping white forms continue in the interior, where walls, floors and ceilings merge into one another, and floor-to-ceiling windows give views of the nearby ocean.

Studio House, New Zealand, by William Samuels

Architect William Samuels placed two timber-framed barrel-vaulted modules side-by-side and clad them in corrugated metal to create the relocatable Studio House.

Designed as an alternative to standard houses, the 42-square-metre dwelling can be relocated using a trailer and additional modules can be added to expand the home in the future.

The Rambler, USA, by GO'C

Tucked into a wooded site northwest of Seattle, The Rambler home was designed by architecture studio GO'C to appear grounded in the landscape.

Placed on top of a concrete plinth, the single-storey house has an overhanging roof and black brick external walls that extend from the home to create semi-enclosed outdoor spaces.
