Today I would like to share with all of you these three homes that I found a while back and I have in my portfolio because I absolutely love the way they are decorated. They represent to me almost perfect interior design styles and color options..


Hope all of you enjoy the pictures..



wooden solar house space for outdoor activities

Here the Creative Wooden Solar House Architecture with Large Space for Outdoor and Indoor Activities. this house using renewable energies, especially solar energy, at home. wooden house features an organic shape, some hi-tech features and a very affordable construction cost. The house is mostly done of wood, plywood and other materials that are not steel, as the basic structural material is deduced from two lines of thought, the first being that a solar house must be reduced from a solar material and the second that the choice of wood leads to structural elements and components which are small, light and manageable. this not only features a rounded shape that allows for maximum internal volume with minimal exterior surface but is elevated off the ground upon three ‘legs’, in order to create a space under the house for some outdoor activities. The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) designed the Fab Lab house as their entry into the 2010 Solar Decathlon Europe.

A beautiful house on the cliffs...

Here are the cliff house by altius architecture the house design with traditional style on cliffside in Muskoka Lakes, Ontario, Canada. This form of housing comes the rocky cliff using the same local granite to form its base. The core acts as an anchor light circular motion, and air into living spaces that picks out cantilever and the landscape. Despite its modest scale, the house easily accommodates a family of four, providing convenience to the kitchen, dining room, living room, reading and sleeping, and each is carefully attuned to the unique vision of light and breeze of the cliff. To balance the heavy weight from fireplaces; swing volumes, flying roofs and floor to ceiling glass are used to achieve the lightness as he works to bring the lake into living spaces. This system implements a strategy to gain mass and passive solar energy has the daily passage of the sun and air circulation at different times for each area. In summer, solar heat gain, while shadowing the boundaries of operable windows are oriented to take advantage of natural ventilation. The windows are operating within the central circulation are designed to make use of the chimney effect, so that hot air is vented out obsolete and cool fresh air is drawn in green roofs are designed to mediate the control of temperature and flow to connect the the first construction plan with the distant landscape. In winter, windows and optimized solar orientation are used in conjunction with the thermal mass in the form of concrete slabs and stone walls and two fireplaces inside to store the sun’s radiant energy to form the basis of the heating system. A project of the envelope of high performance also works to limit heat loss and gain favorable throughout the year.

Modern homes that are simply breathtaking...

A FANTASTIC, MODERN, STYLISH, STUNNING HOME...

This the cool inspiring for modern house space design between indoor and outdoor at Silvertree Residence in Arizona by Secrest Architecture.this house concept opportunity for indoor-outdoor living, was ignored in the previous floor plan of this vaguely Mediterranean 1970s home. A nicely scaled rear terrace with great desert, mountain and partial city views was nearly inaccessible in the floor plan of the existing house. A new multi-functional space, and a remodeled kitchen and dining room, all revolve around a new three-sided fireplace. The fireplace is at the nucleus of the space and acts as a focal point while separating the spaces. The fireplace positioned to open to all of the living spaces. these new spaces allow the rest of the existing house to be connected with the exterior. The garage was relocated, creating better access in and out of the garage and allowing the rest of the rear of the house to open to the exterior. The new living spaces open the house to the outdoors while maintaining privacy in its suburban setting. Fenestration was positioned to provide controlled views and light while screening neighboring houses. A clerestory window opens to the east allowing views of the tops of the Catalina Mountains.A large steel beam spans across the space supporting the roof making the roof appear to float over the mullion-less glass below. Large retractable screens concealed in the ceiling provide privacy and solar control when needed. The existing patio porch framing was saved and covered with birch panel plywood to unite the interior and exterior. The framing is supported by steel wide-flange beams and concrete columns echoing the interior language. The new space allows the exterior patio to become an extension of the interior spaces encouraging indoor-outdoor living. Integral color concrete floors below, and birch soffits above, extend to the exterior breaking the conventional opaque boundary, blurring the line between interior and exterior. A large custom sliding door can be opened to strengthen the connectivity with the exterior spaces.

Here are the modern and cool house design from ruin and explores the ideas a aperture. David Jameson Architect speaking about this house: inhabiting the masonry shell of an existing house, this project engages the phenomenon of ruins and explores the ideas a aperture. the design program called for renovating the main level and adding a second level with a significantly smaller footprint. alluding to the Acropolis, four modern glass temples emerge from a white stucco plinth as volumes of light and define space between each other. there volumes of light are stitched together by a circulation core sheathed in black that extends to cradle each space. the volumes are instruments of light, gathering natural light to the interior during the day and glowing in the landscape at night.
