Dolce House is a newly built modern two-storey home with three bedrooms and a ground-floor open-plan kitchen, living and dining area in the inner-Northern suburb of Mount Lawley, Perth. Armed with a loose brief and their renowned modernist style, the team at Klopper & Davis Architects harnessed a strong textural material palette.

The Quest House is a private house in Swanage, UK; it is a new-build home replacing an ageing bungalow that had been on the site since 1917. The clients wanted a house for their retirement, but with a keen interest in design and a love of abstract and modern art, it needed to eschew the usual trappings of staid, retirement home design.
