Incredible Houses, Beautiful Designs

Just wanted to share with you some houses which have increbidle design and are bursting with creativity. Of course there are a lot more inspirational spaces out there, in all corners of the world, this is just a little taste...Enjoy !!

South Clarkson Residence was designed by architect Angelo Marasco and his wife Nancy and is located in Denver, Colorado. With a total living surface of 3,986 square feet, the crib accommodates three bedrooms and three bathrooms. According to the architects, “the kitchen is by Henrybuilt, a cool kitchen manufacturer specializing in superior 

custom cabinetry and design. Bosch Appliances, Ceasarstone Quartz Countertops and awesome lighting complete the modern aesthetic. An interior courtyard that is both visually stunning and practical for the indoor/outdoor experience takes center stage. Engaged to the public rooms and expands the overall usable square footage. 

The upper level has 3 bedrooms including an amazing master suite with 

a 5 piece spa/luxury bath and a large walk-in closet with modern fixtures and shelving“.The house is up for sale for 1 million dollars but you have to admit this is an inspiring home that definitely has what to showcase.

Built under large pine tree in the backyard of a canyon residence, this 

Banyan Drive Treehouse offers a nice sanctuary with a modern interpretation. This unique project was completed in 2009 

as a part of recreational getaway by Rockefeller Partner Architects. 

The client is an artist and lover of nature, so this perched twelve feet 

off the ground tree house will serve as a creative respite from the demands of domestic responsibilities. Though modest in size, the plan is efficient and allows for a studio space/living area and a toilet room. Deep-oiled wood siding, mahogany windows, and a Rheinzink roof were chosen for their natural qualities and rich palette. Like most tree houses the Banyan features its share of wood interior and exterior appointments and nice open views and natural lighting with 

its well placed windows. This cozy setting makes the best of the 170 square foot floor plan and gives a sense of a much larger space thanks to the tall ceilings and smaller scale furniture.

Have a look at this intriguing architecture project which seems sprung out 

from a Sci-Fi movie. The “Ninety7 @ Siglap” house was designed by Aamer 

Architects and is located in Singapore. The design is said to be inspired 

by the magnificent views that can be observed from atop Siglap Hill. Here 

is a short description from the architects: “Master and family room are 

placed on the third level having the best views. Living and Dining on the 

second level, connected with external verandahs / terraces that flow upwards and fold into the roof form with deep overhangs for sufficient shade and channeling the breeze through the whole house. Two resort style ‘Cabana’ bedrooms are located on the ground level by the pool with a large open/covered terrace for poolside parties. A sculptural metal ‘drum’ anchors the ‘ship’ to the ground and houses the toilet/shower and barbeque pantry. Roof gardens and timber decks provide added insulation from the sun”. How do you appreciate the overall design of this crib?. 

Just Amazing...

  

Pryor Residence was designed by Bates Masi Architects and is located in Montauk, New York.  According to the architects, the house detaches itself from common residential planning and “is entered through multiple areas for different guests and occasions. Large glass doors slide open to the living, dining and kitchen area for a large gathering; a smaller scaled swing door for an occasional guest opens to the center hall with a view of the ocean. A sequence of auxiliary spaces – beach equipment area, outdoor shower, sand and mudroom – creates a seamless 

ritual from the daily activities for the family and friends. In all living areas 

and bedrooms, glass doors and insect screens slide in and out from pocket walls, transforming rooms to screened porches or spaces completely open to the landscape. The house is environmentally friendly in its overall construction and planning with such specifics as geo-thermal heating & cooling, shading & venting systems, solar panels, organic finishes and materials“. The residence was especially designed for a couple and their two children and is said to evoke the parents’ 

love for the outdoors driven by their experiences of camping.

Completed in October 2004, the Hill House was designed under challenging 

conditions generated by modern problems of building on a hillside. 

Located in Pacific Palisades, California, while the site for the house 

offers panoramic views from Rustic and Sullivan Canyons to Santa Monica Bay, the irregularly shaped lot is situated on an uneven, downhill slope. 

With the canonical Eames House nearby, the 3300 square foot Hill House 

provocatively continues the Case Study House tradition of experimentation 

and reinvention of Los Angeles lifestyles.

The structural assembly is composed of concrete, steel, and timber. The 

foundation, based upon nine 35-foot deep reinforced concrete piles, is anchored into bedrock and tied together by a network of grade beams. Rising up from this foundation, inclined concrete walls project orthogonally to the grade – instead of vertically – taking on the figure of prevented fall. A braced steel frame with timber infill framing emerges out of the concrete base to form the circulation core and cantilevered overhang at the entry.

Creativity + Drive + Knowledge = Incredible Architecture Design
