Modern Glass and Stone Residence at La Concha House by MOOARC

This classic modern house is just the kind of home design that i like. The house looks very exotic to us. The UK-based architectural studio MOOARC had transformed 15th Century barn on the Island of Guernsey into a high-end, luxurious modern home. This house was later named La Concha House. It’s a smart design, the architect remodeled the old structure and combine it with recycled building materials at this private residence.

Sustainable Residence in Los Angeles with Original Architecture Details

Hover House 2 was designed by Glen Irani architects and is located in Los Angeles, USA. The residence has a unique architecture, serving both an aesthetic purpose and a functional one. According to the architects, the house “is planned around the use of a fully developed outdoor living environment which includes a kitchen, dining area and living area. Hovering a large volume above the landscape eliminates the typical discontinuity
between the front and rear garden areas and situates a built outdoor environment in the midst of a measurably larger feeling garden space. The blanketing roof is shaped to conduct softly gradient, reflected clerestory light while seemingly floating gently and protectively over the interior spaces“. Moreover, the Hover House 2 was built with sustainability in mind: ” PVC cool roof technology, high efficiency mechanical systems, window shading, sustainable wood finish and structural products and minimization of long term refinishing and maintenance are just several measures this project.” The interior design is highly contemporary, featuring intriguing furniture arrangements

TEXAS TOWER HOUSE

 When I think of Texas nowhere in that thought is green grass, water or large trees. Talk about a skewed perception of the state. Fortunately that has been renewed by this house in Austin built by Andersson Wise Architects. Ultimately it seems more like a lookout tower which only makes it cooler.
