The five homes are characterized by flat roofs and dominated with wood materials for the entire structure of the buildings. In order to get more advantages from the awesome views of nature, large glass windows and doors are also added along the building walls so everyone inside the houses can enjoy the views and warm atmosphere from the natural light.
Using soft transitions, the architecture can blend into nature due to the warm and pleasant climate. Porches, outdoor living and dining spaces, with switching levels defining thresholds between this nature and architecture. Wood materials are used to design the shutters and avoid glazed openings while the large sliding doors can open up key spaces to the garden.
Residential roofs are designed to last. With proper installation and maintenance, most asphalt shingle roofs will last around 20 years. Wooden shakes typically only need […]
Every sustainable notion possible is used to design the buildings with little impact on the existing trees and site, cross-ventilation, and proper sound transmittance ratings. The landscape around the building also will promote social engagement among the owners of the property to create pleasant opportunities for neighbors to meet and engage.
This house has a vertical backbone: a staircase that leads up to the roof terrace, offering awesome views of the city. The house bearing structure is made of ceramic blocks while the ceilings are reinforced concrete. The spruce glued profiles are used to design the windows. The house interior is fully equipped with the same material as the floors: built-in furniture in oak.
Decking is a lovely addition to your garden or yard and makes an excellent place for people to relax and enjoy the summer months. With […]
The house space is filled up with natural light throughout the day and it is enhanced by a diamond plaster finish on the interior ceilings and walls, parallels with the minimalism idea through the materials that used.
The bold architectural statement is created using materials and forms, derived from the region’s heritage and tradition. These forms and materials can create a unique architecture with a different character from other cultural center buildings based, facilitating the indigenous community with the best place to meet and communicate with each other in a comfortable way.
The interior space of Over the Edge comes as basic in fixtures and finishings, allowing the furnishings and activities that will change and evolve through time to become an ever-changing curation of one’s choices and habits. The white surface from the ceiling and wall can create a natural appearance and soft atmosphere to the entire interior space.
This project salvages the existing brick as much as possible and also replaces the existing storefront windows with new energy-efficient glazing, frames with steel mullions to match the pattern of the original window. This project also backs to its former life brought by the use of mid-century materials such as cork flooring, stained wood paneling, and vintage brick. The details through those materials also make it possible to update the original low ceiling and raising it to achieve eight-foot ceiling heights with a seamless transition both inside and out.
Lattice parametric shells are created to provide the needed heat in winter but the sunlight in summer can’t get in the room of the building. The city’s visual pollution filter also becomes target-controlled by brick panels while the viewer experience a dynamic view is created by the framing of the view from the inside out, and fluidity of the parametrically expanded patterns and frame.
