Frankie Pappas' disappearing house unites landscape with brickwork
Established in 2019 by a group of like-minded architects and designers in Johannesburg, Frankie Pappas is a ‘collection of brilliant young minds that do away with personal egotisms in order to better find remarkable solutions to fascinating problems,’ explain the founders – who prefer to remain anonymous. Following the mantra ‘wonderfully similar, beautifully different’, the collective has completed various residential projects, including the sculptural brick volumes of House of the Big Arch in Waterberg.

Architects Directory 2020: Fem, Netherlands
Set up in 2019 by Femke van de Voort, Fem Architects is a young, boutique office based in Amsterdam that caught our eye for its clever and sustainably minded residential work. Row House, in the city’s Klaprozenweg area, is one of the practice’s first built projects. The structure stands on the site of a former brick factory and the architect responded to this history by creating a fittingly utilitarian, robust, eco-friendly and affordable family home, featuring a façade clad in profiled Corten steel.
