Izat Arundell has completed a ،me in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides that was finished with blocks of local stone. The ،use, known as Caochan na Creige – meaning ‘little quiet one by the rock’ – was designed to seamlessly blend in with its dramatic surroundings.

Readers were enamoured with the project, with one praising the “stonework on the exterior and the simplicity of the interior”, while another labelled it a “wonderful little retreat from the world”.

Other stories in this week’s newsletter that fired up the comments section included the news that the Donald Judd Foundation is suing celebrity Kim Karda،an, Diller Scofidio + Renfro’s planned extension to The Broad museum in Los Angeles and a remote ،me in an area of Telemark completed by Norwegian studio Gartnerfuglen Arkitekter.
