A large, gracious living room with a vaulted ceiling. A ceiling soffit defines part of the room as a separate space, and a comfy chair next to a large, sunny window is the perfect place to curl up with a book.

If you’re looking for an excellent flooring option then look to cork floating planks. These planks don’t need adhesive as they click and lock together. The honeycomb cell construction of cork allows it to be both compressible and supple. Because of this, cork floors are exceedingly durable and perform as excellent noise and thermal insulators; cork will dent or warp when subjected to pressure, but will return to its original form as a part of its inherent 'memory'. Take a look at floating cork flooring today and see the wide selection available

The open space plan on the main level of the Prairie Style home is deceiving of the actual separation of spaces. This home packs a punch with a private hot tub, craft room, library, and even a theater. The interior of the home features the same attention to place, as the natural world is evident in the use of granite, basalt, walnut, poplar, and natural river rock throughout. Floor to ceiling windows in strategic locations eliminates the sense of compression on the interior, while the overall window design promotes natural daylighting and cross-ventilation in nearly every space of the home.

The sunlight-dappled home is a respite, weaving interior and exterior materials and structural elements together intentionally in conversation with the surrounding natural landscape. Red Hills is sited to quietly rest within the forested land and maximize views from its place on a ridge overlooking vineyards beyond. A layered arrival to the site signals that it is time to let go of the day’s urgency—hedgerow trees give way to descending stairs, compressing down into the home and through to the main living area where a windowed wall opens up the space entirely to immerse into nature.

Here the accordion door is almost entirely closed. The right-most door can be used as a "person" door when the rest of the door is closed.

View from the dining area back to the kitchen. On the right are translucent fiberglass walls enclosing a stair to the finished basement. Ahead is a large volume of space that projects above the low ceiling that defines the rest of the house. This space adds dramatic height and bright sunlight to the compressed interior of a traditional ranch house.

The floating, lighted soffit not only defines the seating space, it compresses it, making it feel more cozy. It also had the effect of making the 8 foot ceilings feel taller. ©2016 Adam Gibson

Garage - large transitional detached three-car garage idea in Minneapolis

Arranged around a series of three overlapping courtyards, the building’s primary spaces push and pull to create a wide variety of spatial experiences- solid and void, light and dark, release and compression. Carefully working in close proximity to the heritage oaks, the architecture weaves around and tucks under the sprawling tree canopies. New masonry walls, an extension of the original house, anchor the floating roofs which in turn strategically frame treetop views. A central court, a vestige of the once enclosed sunroom, carves deep into the house, affording each room a unique connection to the outdoors.

This front yard features a seating area and jar fountain, ringed by aromatic native plantings of California Lilac, Manzanita, Cleveland Sage. A meadow-style planting of native sedge grasses create soft look in the foreground, and new concrete pavers add a modern touch. We also believe the project’s driveway to be among the prettiest we’ve created or seen: a ribbon of stones and grasses now meanders along a Hollywood-style center planting area.

Cork’s cellular structure mimics that of a honeycomb’s, and each of the cells is filled with air. When you walk on this type of a surface, the air becomes compressed and released. This process not only absorbs the shock of impact but provides a cushioning surface, making it extremely comfortable to walk on. This same ability allows for its thermal and sound properties. Thus with cork floors, you will be insulated against sound vibration transfers thru the floor. Cork is one of the best office floor.

By compressing the space with the floating soffit, the oblong booth makes the breakfast area warm and alluring in spite of its being surrounded by windows. Without the floating soffit the space would feel cavernous and uninviting. The custom soffit matches the custom booth below.
