Ark Journal Volume XV explores the home and the studio as spaces of personal expression — places where architecture becomes a quiet reflection of identity, shaped by light, material, memory and intention. In this issue, Ark Journal presents a collection of homes and studios where architecture becomes more than form and proportion: spaces that reveal how we live, think and shape the environments around us. Step into private homes, artist studios and carefully considered interiors across cities and landscapes. We visit spaces that unfold slowly — from intimate apartments and working studios to houses shaped by craft, memory and daily life. Each story offers a glimpse into how architecture can become a portrait of the people who inhabit it.
