Lakefront Timber Frame Home and Pavillions

The design of this home was driven by the owners’ desire for a three-bedroom waterfront home that showcased the spectacular views and park-like setting. As nature lovers, they wanted their home to be organic, minimize any environmental impact on the sensitive site and embrace nature. This unique home is sited on a high ridge with a 45° slope to the water on the right and a deep ravine on the left. The five-acre site is completely wooded and tree preservation was a major emphasis. Very few trees were removed and special care was taken to protect the trees and environment throughout the project. To further minimize disturbance, grades were not changed and the home was designed to take full advantage of the site’s natural topography. Oak from the home site was re-purposed for the mantle, powder room counter and select furniture. The visually powerful twin pavilions were born from the need for level ground and parking on an otherwise challenging site. Fill dirt excavated from the main home provided the foundation. All structures are anchored with a natural stone base and exterior materials include timber framing, fir ceilings, shingle siding, a partial metal roof and corten steel walls. Stone, wood, metal and glass transition the exterior to the interior and large wood windows flood the home with light and showcase the setting. Interior finishes include reclaimed heart pine floors, Douglas fir trim, dry-stacked stone, rustic cherry cabinets and soapstone counters. Exterior spaces include a timber-framed porch, stone patio with fire pit and commanding views of the Occoquan reservoir. A second porch overlooks the ravine and a breezeway connects the garage to the home. Numerous energy-saving features have been incorporated, including LED lighting, on-demand gas water heating and special insulation. Smart technology helps manage and control the entire house.

"Three Birds... One Stone"

Chapman Design Group, Inc.

Donald Chapman, AIA,CMB This unique project, located in Donalds, South Carolina began with the owners requesting three primary uses. First, it was have separate guest accommodations for family and friends when visiting their rural area. The desire to house and display collectible cars was the second goal. The owner’s passion of wine became the final feature incorporated into this multi use structure. This Guest House – Collector Garage – Wine Cellar was designed and constructed to settle into the picturesque farm setting and be reminiscent of an old house that once stood in the pasture. The front porch invites you to sit in a rocker or swing while enjoying the surrounding views. As you step inside the red oak door, the stair to the right leads guests up to a 1150 SF of living space that utilizes varied widths of red oak flooring that was harvested from the property and installed by the owner. Guest accommodations feature two bedroom suites joined by a nicely appointed living and dining area as well as fully stocked kitchen to provide a self-sufficient stay. Disguised behind two tone stained cement siding, cedar shutters and dark earth tones, the main level of the house features enough space for storing and displaying six of the owner’s automobiles. The collection is accented by natural light from the windows, painted wainscoting and trim while positioned on three toned speckled epoxy coated floors. The third and final use is located underground behind a custom built 3” thick arched door. This climatically controlled 2500 bottle wine cellar is highlighted with custom designed and owner built white oak racking system that was again constructed utilizing trees that were harvested from the property in earlier years. Other features are stained concrete floors, tongue and grooved pine ceiling and parch coated red walls. All are accented by low voltage track lighting along with a hand forged wrought iron & glass chandelier that is positioned above a wormy chestnut tasting table. Three wooden generator wheels salvaged from a local building were installed and act as additional storage and display for wine as well as give a historical tie to the community, always prompting interesting conversations among the owner’s and their guests. This all-electric Energy Star Certified project allowed the owner to capture all three desires into one environment… Three birds… one stone.

Previously a sun-drenched deck, unusable late afternoon because of the heat, and never utilized in the rain, the indoors seamlessly segues to the outdoors via Marvin's sliding wall system. Retractable Phantom Screens keep out the insects, and skylights let in the natural light stolen from the new roof. Powerful heaters and a fireplace warm it up during cool evenings.

木目調の縁側・ポーチの写真

縁側でのんびりと日向ぼっこをする生活に憧れている方もいるかもしれません。最近ふたたび見直されつつある縁側。そんな縁側の魅力を、縁側のある家の事例写真でご紹介します。また、同様に家の外側にある空間である玄関ポーチも、住宅の顔としてのデザインや、毎日使うところだからこそ使い勝手にこだわりたいものです。ご自分の家に縁側や玄関ポーチを設置したいと考えている方、日本中、世界中で集められた多数のおしゃれな実例画像からあなたのお気に入りを見つけて、縁側や玄関ポーチの間取りやデザインの参考にしてください。

縁側の種類

「濡れ縁」と「くれ縁」

縁側には大きく分けて、「濡れ縁」と「くれ縁」の 2種類あります。「濡れ縁」は室外にある縁側で、屋根は被さっているものの外部に面しているので、雨が振り込むと文字通り濡れてしまう空間のことです。一方「くれ縁」は、建物の内側にあり、窓や雨戸を閉めると室内になる縁側のことです。「広縁」も「くれ縁」の一種で、室内にある、より幅の広い縁側を意味します。

ウッドデッキと縁側の違い

濡れ縁もウッドデッキもどちらも木製で住宅の外側にあるものですが、簡単な見分け方は、屋根があるかどうかです。屋根が被さっている、軒がある場合は縁側で、屋根がなく雨ざらしの状態であれば「ウッドデッキ」と言えます。ただ、明確な定義があるわけではないので、日本家屋や和室の場合は「縁側 (濡れ縁)」、洋風の部屋や建物なら「(ウッド) デッキ」と考えてもいいでしょう。

縁側のある家のメリットとデメリット

縁側を上手に住宅に取り込むことができると、建物の室内と外側をつなげて広がりや一体感を醸し出してくれます。また、部屋の外側に縁側があると、夏は日よけの役割を果たして部屋に直射日光が入るのを防ぐので、涼しく過ごすことができます。逆に冬には、日当たりが良く、居心地の良いくつろぎのスペースになります。また、外が近いので、風を感じたり季節の移り変わりを楽しむことができます。一方、縁側は外に近いがゆえ、隣地や外部の道路からのプライバシーの確保や、防犯に注意が必要となります。これは自分の家に安心して住むためにとても大切なことなので、ぜひ建築家など専門家に相談して、万全な対策を講じたいものです。ぜひ、こちらの縁側に関するウェブマガジンも参考になさってください。

玄関ポーチの決め手は広さ

玄関は住宅の顔とも言えるスペースです。その中でも、玄関ポーチはまず最初に目がいく場所なので、デザインが重要となってきます。また、玄関ポーチは、建物へのアプローチに加えて雨よけや傘をたたむという機能面でも重要なスペースなので、使いやすさやバリアフリーも考慮すべき要素となります。そのため、玄関ポーチは適切なサイズにすることが肝要ですが、ポーチは広ければいいというものではありません。敷地の広さや建物とのバランスはもちろん、家族の人数や構成によっても適切な広さは変わってきます。ぜひ Houzz にあるさまざまな実例画像を参考にして、あなたの住宅にぴったりな玄関ポーチを見つけてください。また、海外の玄関ポーチの事例写真を参考に、オリジナリティ溢れるおしゃれな玄関ポーチに仕上げたいものですね。
