Search results for "Creating virtual" in Home Design Ideas

Atherton has many large substantial homes - our clients purchased an existing home on a one acre flag-shaped lot and asked us to design a new dream home for them. The result is a new 7,000 square foot four-building complex consisting of the main house, six-car garage with two car lifts, pool house with a full one bedroom residence inside, and a separate home office /work out gym studio building. A fifty-foot swimming pool was also created with fully landscaped yards.
Given the rectangular shape of the lot, it was decided to angle the house to incoming visitors slightly so as to more dramatically present itself. The house became a classic u-shaped home but Feng Shui design principals were employed directing the placement of the pool house to better contain the energy flow on the site. The main house entry door is then aligned with a special Japanese red maple at the end of a long visual axis at the rear of the site. These angles and alignments set up everything else about the house design and layout, and views from various rooms allow you to see into virtually every space tracking movements of others in the home.
The residence is simply divided into two wings of public use, kitchen and family room, and the other wing of bedrooms, connected by the living and dining great room. Function drove the exterior form of windows and solid walls with a line of clerestory windows which bring light into the middle of the large home. Extensive sun shadow studies with 3D tree modeling led to the unorthodox placement of the pool to the north of the home, but tree shadow tracking showed this to be the sunniest area during the entire year.
Sustainable measures included a full 7.1kW solar photovoltaic array technically making the house off the grid, and arranged so that no panels are visible from the property. A large 16,000 gallon rainwater catchment system consisting of tanks buried below grade was installed. The home is California GreenPoint rated and also features sealed roof soffits and a sealed crawlspace without the usual venting. A whole house computer automation system with server room was installed as well. Heating and cooling utilize hot water radiant heated concrete and wood floors supplemented by heat pump generated heating and cooling.
A compound of buildings created to form balanced relationships between each other, this home is about circulation, light and a balance of form and function.

The best view of this West Seattle house was currently hidden in the attic. By raising the roof and combining 2 existing small bedrooms, we created a master bedroom suite with an amazing view.

Stuart Wade, Envision Virtual Tours
Envision Virtual Tours provides professional photography and virtual imaging on and around Lake Nantahala. Lake Nantahala was formed in 1942 when the Nantahala River was dammed to create a pure, crystal clear reservoir. The shoreline has a limited number of private homes and cabins, as much of the area is owned and managed by the U.S. Forest Service and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. Below the lake, the river tumbles down the mountainside in spectacular cascades and waterfalls, providing water for trout fishing, world-class river rafting and kayaking on the Nantahala River.

Zelinskis aquarium is digitally built using high resolution imaging and after is 3D laser-etched into multiple layers of glass material creating a true depth of field with a combination of several LED lights in endless color options. Simultaneous LED multi-color effect allows the aquarium to remain mysterious by exposing different parts of the virtual fishtank, depending on the color mix between the brightness tones and viewer's angle eye sight. This will create a hypnotizing virtual aquarium to perfectly mimic a window into your private ocean. This sophisticated and modern aquarium will bring peace and tranquility to any private residence or commercial setting without any water aquarium maintenance-related hassles.

Formal living room: We played off symmetry of the windows and fireplace to create the spacious conversational layout, perfect for this chill family that enjoys quiet evenings at home. To achieve a farmhouse chic look, we used a blend of luxe, luminous materials and traditional farmhouse finishes (rustic & reclaimed wood, iron). Fabrics are high performance (kid friendly) and the coffee table is virtually indestructible to little ones! We choose a color palette of muted blues and citrine to blend with the lush natural scenery on the property, located in suburban New Jersery.

The first target was a mudroom addition which detracted from the otherwise architecturally interesting home and was so poorly conditioned that it was virtually unusable. In the same footprint, the team created a highly-insulated space with a welcoming entrance and eat-in dining area that opens to the gardens.

We create turnkey kitchens from high quality materials. Our main task is to create a useful space where you can enjoy cooking for the whole family. Schedule Free Virtual Estimate: (408) 409-1010

On the exterior of this thoughtfully designed home by Mike Schaap Builders, fiber cement siding in a vivid blue hue pairs with contrasting white trim to create a virtual seascape, while circular windows and exposed rafters play up the nautical theme that defines lakefront living.
