Seattle architect Roy McMakin of Domestic Architecture is fearless with color. We like the way he uses different shades of green in these detail shots from various projects.

Carola Vannini is an architect based in Rome; she has a degree from La Sapienze at the University of Rome and has studied in Paris and worked in New York at James Harb Architects. We love this project in Rome—the mix of rustic ancient and slick modern.
