This cozy lake cottage skillfully incorporates a number of features that would normally be restricted to a larger home design. A glance of the exterior reveals a simple story and a half gable running the length of the home, enveloping the majority of the interior spaces. To the rear, a pair of gables with copper roofing flanks a covered dining area that connects to a screened porch. Inside, a linear foyer reveals a generous staircase with cascading landing. Further back, a centrally placed kitchen is connected to all of the other main level entertaining spaces through expansive cased openings. A private study serves as the perfect buffer between the homes master suite and living room. Despite its small footprint, the master suite manages to incorporate several closets, built-ins, and adjacent master bath complete with a soaker tub flanked by separate enclosures for shower and water closet. Upstairs, a generous double vanity bathroom is shared by a bunkroom, exercise space, and private bedroom. The bunkroom is configured to provide sleeping accommodations for up to 4 people. The rear facing exercise has great views of the rear yard through a set of windows that overlook the copper roof of the screened porch below.

Our homeowners approached us for design help shortly after purchasing a fixer upper. They wanted to redesign the home into an open concept plan. Their goal was something that would serve multiple functions: allow them to entertain small groups while accommodating their two small children not only now but into the future as they grow up and have social lives of their own. They wanted the kitchen opened up to the living room to create a Great Room. The living room was also in need of an update including the bulky, existing brick fireplace. They were interested in an aesthetic that would have a mid-century flair with a modern layout. We added built-in cabinetry on either side of the fireplace mimicking the wood and stain color true to the era. The adjacent Family Room, needed minor updates to carry the mid-century flavor throughout.

Designed from a “high-tech, local handmade” philosophy, this house was conceived with the selection of locally sourced materials as a starting point. Red brick is widely produced in San Pedro Cholula, making it the stand-out material of the house. An artisanal arrangement of each brick, following a non-perpendicular modular repetition, allowed expressivity for both material and geometry-wise while maintaining a low cost. The house is an introverted one and incorporates design elements that aim to simultaneously bring sufficient privacy, light and natural ventilation: a courtyard and interior-facing terrace, brick-lattices and windows that open up to selected views. In terms of the program, the said courtyard serves to articulate and bring light and ventilation to two main volumes: The first one comprised of a double-height space containing a living room, dining room and kitchen on the first floor, and bedroom on the second floor. And a second one containing a smaller bedroom and service areas on the first floor, and a large terrace on the second. Various elements such as wall lamps and an electric meter box (among others) were custom-designed and crafted for the house.

Der neue Liebelingsplatz der Familie: Das Sitzfenster am Hochtisch! Dort wo jetzt Bücher stehen, stand früher die Waschmaschine. Der alte Schrank wurde abgeschliffen, mit Einlegeböden ausgestattet und weiß lasiert. Die junge Familie wünschte sich eine neue Küche. Mehrere Jahre lebten sie mit einer Küche, die Sie von den Eltern übernommen hatten. Das war zum Einzug praktisch, denn Sie kamen zurück aus London in die alte Heimat. Nach einigen Jahren konnten Sie die alte Küche nicht mehr sehen und wünschten sich eine schlichte, praktische Küche mit natürlichen Baustoffen. Die L-Position blieb bestehen, aber alles drumherum veränderte sich. Schon alleine die neue Position der Spüle ermöglicht es nun zu zweit besser und entspannter an der Arbeitsfläche zu schnippeln, kochen und zu spülen. Kleiner Eingriff mit großer Wirkung. Die Position des Tisches (der für das Frühstück und den schnellen Snack zwischendurch) wurde ebenso verändert und als Hochtisch ausgeführt. Beruflich arbeiten sie sehr naturnah und wollten auch eine Küche haben, die weitestgehend mit Holz und natürlichen Baustoffen saniert wird. Die Wände und Decke wurden mit Lehm verputzt. Der Boden wurde von diversen Schichten Vinyl und Co befreit und mit einem Linoleum neu belegt. Die Küchenmöbel und wurden aus Dreischichtplatte Fichte gebaut. Die Fronten mit einer Kreidefarbe gestrichen und einem Wachs gegen Spritzwasser und Schmutz geschützt. Die Arbeitsplatte wurde aus Ahorn verleimt und ausschließlich geseift. Auf einen klassischen Fliesenspiegel wurde auch verzichtet. Stattdessen wurde dort ein Lehmspachtel dünn aufgezogen und mit einem Carnubawachs versiegelt. Ja, dass ist alles etwas pflegeintensiver. Funktioniert im Alltag aber problemlos. "Wir wissen es zu schätzen, dass uns natürliche Materialien umgeben und pflegen unsere Küche gerne. Wir fühlen uns rundum wohl! berichten die beiden Bauherren. Es gibt nicht nur geschlossene Hochschränke, sondern einige offene Regale. Der Zugriff zu den Dingen des täglichen Bedarfs geht einfach schneller und es belebt die Küche.

Gorgeous dining room with antique brass chandelier and fun black and white banquettes. Accent on wall with 3x8 ceramic tile provides depth and charm to this lovely room.

A small enclosed kitchen is very common in many homes such as the home that we remodeled here. Opening a wall to allow natural light to penetrate the space is a must. When budget is important the solution can be as you see in this project - the wall was opened and removed but a structural post remained and it was incorporated in the design. The blue modern flat paneled cabinets was a perfect choice to contras the very familiar gray scale color scheme but it’s still compliments it since blue is in the correct cold color spectrum. Notice the great black windows and the fantastic awning window facing the pool. The awning window is great to be able to serve the exterior sitting area near the pool. Opening the wall also allowed us to compliment the kitchen with a nice bar/island sitting area without having an actual island in the space. The best part of this kitchen is the large built-in pantry wall with a tall wine fridge and a lovely coffee area that we built in the sitting area made the kitchen expend into the breakfast nook and doubled the area that is now considered to be the kitchen.

Weather House is a bespoke home for a young, nature-loving family on a quintessentially compact Northcote block. Our clients Claire and Brent cherished the character of their century-old worker's cottage but required more considered space and flexibility in their home. Claire and Brent are camping enthusiasts, and in response their house is a love letter to the outdoors: a rich, durable environment infused with the grounded ambience of being in nature. From the street, the dark cladding of the sensitive rear extension echoes the existing cottage!s roofline, becoming a subtle shadow of the original house in both form and tone. As you move through the home, the double-height extension invites the climate and native landscaping inside at every turn. The light-bathed lounge, dining room and kitchen are anchored around, and seamlessly connected to, a versatile outdoor living area. A double-sided fireplace embedded into the house’s rear wall brings warmth and ambience to the lounge, and inspires a campfire atmosphere in the back yard. Championing tactility and durability, the material palette features polished concrete floors, blackbutt timber joinery and concrete brick walls. Peach and sage tones are employed as accents throughout the lower level, and amplified upstairs where sage forms the tonal base for the moody main bedroom. An adjacent private deck creates an additional tether to the outdoors, and houses planters and trellises that will decorate the home’s exterior with greenery. From the tactile and textured finishes of the interior to the surrounding Australian native garden that you just want to touch, the house encapsulates the feeling of being part of the outdoors; like Claire and Brent are camping at home. It is a tribute to Mother Nature, Weather House’s muse.

Our Austin studio designed this gorgeous town home to reflect a quiet, tranquil aesthetic. We chose a neutral palette to create a seamless flow between spaces and added stylish furnishings, thoughtful decor, and striking artwork to create a cohesive home. We added a beautiful blue area rug in the living area that nicely complements the blue elements in the artwork. We ensured that our clients had enough shelving space to showcase their knickknacks, curios, books, and personal collections. In the kitchen, wooden cabinetry, a beautiful cascading island, and well-planned appliances make it a warm, functional space. We made sure that the spaces blended in with each other to create a harmonious home. --- Project designed by the Atomic Ranch featured modern designers at Breathe Design Studio.
