Sustainable Residence in Los Angeles with Original Architecture Details



Hover House 2 was designed by Glen Irani architects and is located in Los Angeles, USA. The residence has a unique architecture, serving both an aesthetic purpose and a functional one. According to the architects, the house “is planned around the use of a fully developed outdoor living environment which includes a kitchen, dining area and living area. Hovering a large volume above the landscape eliminates the typical discontinuity
between the front and rear garden areas and situates a built outdoor environment in the midst of a measurably larger feeling garden space. The blanketing roof is shaped to conduct softly gradient, reflected clerestory light while seemingly floating gently and protectively over the interior spaces“. Moreover, the Hover House 2 was built with sustainability in mind: ” PVC cool roof technology, high efficiency mechanical systems, window shading, sustainable wood finish and structural products and minimization of long term refinishing and maintenance are just several measures this project.” The interior design is highly contemporary, featuring intriguing furniture arrangements

Classical and modern



The house is beautiful and elegantly designed for a young couple who asked the optimization of land and open spaces. The combination of wood, glass, concrete and zinc ended up giving the house a comfortable and look nice. The house is simple in plan and form, referring to conventional homes. Using precious linings of concrete bricks, wood for heating perception, titanium sheet and zinc and glass from five feet, they created the impression of a modern structure in a classical form. The idea of this series is to show inspirational and beautiful houses. The houses that stand out for its design, elegance, elements, concept or simply because they are beautiful. Interior design and beautifully designed homes, you’re in the right place.

Vaucluse Renovation



Bruce Stafford Architects have designed the renovation of an existing house which was originally an 80's style multi-tenancy building in Sydney, Australia. Only the external walls were retained to comply with the approved council envelope. A completely new look for the house was designed, both inside and out.

TEXAS TOWER HOUSE


 When I think of Texas nowhere in that thought is green grass, water or large trees. Talk about a skewed perception of the state. Fortunately that has been renewed by this house in Austin built by Andersson Wise Architects. Ultimately it seems more like a lookout tower which only makes it cooler.

Cul-de-sac graphic prints



 The creative team at Cul-de-sac is releasing its first range of limited edition prints. Blending the hallmarks of Danish design, Italian style and Pop Art punch, these three geometric prints are timeless artworks that will add visual impact to any interior. These are the first in what will be an on-going series of prints playing with the team’s theme of the cul-de-sac… a street that is open at one end only, a journey that brings you home.  The first series, seen displayed in the studio of iconic designer Khai Liew, features a punchy orange design; another with geometric curves of tonal blue and a third print of a smaller repeating pattern in yellow.  Each print is released in a limited edition of 20 prints.
