SurfHouse

Nice Beach House ideas,

The Surfhouse was designed by XTEN Architecture is Californian house design in Hermosa Beach, California, USA. The Surfhouse’s architectural concept maximizes space, light and views while also creating a sense of privacy and retreat for the owners, a young couple, on a busy beachside street. The Californian residential architecture, Surfhouse sits like an abstract block of weathered wood a few blocks from the Pacific Ocean in Hermosa Beach Property. The site is incredibly small, subtracting for setbacks leaves an allowable building area that is only 23-feet wide x 29-feet deep x 30-feet high.

The facade of Surfhouse by XTEN Architecture is made from rough sawn, black stained cedar planks with volumetric openings at primary program spaces and a system of identical 2? x 5? casement windows arrayed across the secondary elevations for specific views and ventilation.

The Hermosa beach Surfhouse interior is all light and air, with bamboo floors and walls of glass that slide away to bring the beach side environment inside.

House Design in the Garden by Cunningham Architects in USA

House Design in the Garden by Cunningham Architects in USA

House design in the Garden that located in Dallas, Texas, USA was designed by Cunningham Architects collaboration with the Hocker Design Group, who has received an Honor Award from the American Society of Landscape Architects for their work on the home’s landscaping. The House in the Garden is a free-standing addition to an elegant modernist house design on an adjoining lot. Several existing Red Oak and Elm trees were incorporated into the home garden design, whereby both lots contributed to the formation of a larger garden en masse. A minimal plant palette creates mass plantings used for large textural impact and screening for privacy.

A modern two story box, the house design is clad on three sides with a rain-screen system, utilizing Ipe hardwood that will weather over time to a silver-grey sheen. The south façade is glazed in frameless, insulated glass units incorporating two 8 foot wide sliding glass doors. A 14 foot cantilevered roof protects this façade from the harsh Texas sun while serving as a porch to the glass-tiled infinity edge swimming pool. A small water feature cast into the concrete deck provides subtle noise to eliminate any distractions from beyond the garden walls. Large stone slabs become “connectors” throughout the garden, and provide transition from the street to the home design. These organic, sinuous pathways culminate and encircle a fire pit. There is a guest bedroom and painting studio on the upper level. Downstairs, the concrete floor and exterior deck provide a seamless transition from the living room to the garden. The modern house design in the garden provides ample space for part of a larger collection of art and automobiles.

At 5250 square feet, the House in the Garden is barely discernable from the street as it is discreetly set back to the rear of the lot behind a stainless steel mesh and recycled glass privacy wall. Illuminated from within, the glass wall gives no indication of the urban oasis behind it. Photographs: James F. Wilson & Gisela Borghi
