Dezeen's Top Five Houses of September 2026

Dezeen's September 2026 roundup features five notable residential projects, including a narrow home and studio in Kyoto, a grey-brick house in Northern Ireland, a lime-rendered home in Mexico, a timber holiday home in Sweden, and a house in India built alongside mango trees.

Tato Architects designed a four-by-30-meter home and ceramics studio in Kyoto, Japan, on a narrow site. It features two skylit voids for illumination and zigzagging staircases connecting separate wings elevated over a ground-floor studio.

McGonigle McGrath created Tollymore, a riverside house in Northern Ireland, by setting six staggered rectangular volumes into a steep bank. The structure has grey brick walls on a board-marked concrete plinth and large windows overlooking the surroundings.

Colar designed Casa Amona in Mexico, a two-storey home and studio with white lime-rendered walls. It features a stacked layout for a multi-generational family, with rooms that can function as independent units and a ground-floor living space adaptable to a bedroom.

Johan Sundberg Arkitektur's Pine House in Sweden is a low-lying, cross-shaped holiday home made of cross-laminated timber. It is clad in untreated pine panelling designed to weather naturally.

InLe Architects' House Beyond the Mango Trees in India is shaded by timber shutters and two large mango trees. The entrance is positioned between the trees, leading to a central dining room and an adjacent outdoor patio.
