The Rainbow house is a three storey 3,500 sq.ft residence located on a mountain perch, in Skyridge, Squamish’s newest residential development. The home was site specific, taking into account natural daylighting, strong winds local to the area, and the spectacular views of Howe Sound and various mountain ranges. The home incorporates large overhangs via cantilevered glulam beams, covered outdoor living areas, winter and summer zones, and juxtapositions living spaces based on views and lighting. The home has been conceptualized to be built out of the ground as it follows the grading of the site, stepping down across the lot, and by using natural, local materials. The final product will be a leader in the “West Coast Modern” design aesthetic.

Jacob Lilley Architects Location: Lexington, MA, USA A new garage, kids play room above and a mudroom met the need for more space. A renovated kitchen, bedroom and other living spaces created a refreshed sense of home. The strategic location of the mudroom as an intermediary connector solved problems with this 19th-century home siting seven feet above the ground with limited access to the rear yard. The connector between the garage and existing house is a stair that unifies the various levels and develops a strong connection to the yard. Photographed by: Eric Roth

The design balances modern structure with comfortable, livable softness, giving it a polished resort-style atmosphere.

This small private house in Vienna was completed as a comprehensive reconstruction project with a strong focus on functionality, contemporary design, and full compliance with Austrian building regulations.

This project is a high-end architectural visualization of a modern residential complex concept located in Vancouver, Canada. The design focuses on contemporary urban architecture, emphasizing clean geometry, realistic materials, and balanced lighting to achieve a strong photorealistic presentation. The goal of this visualization is to communicate a large-scale residential development concept suitable for urban living and real estate investment purposes. The renderings highlight both architectural form and environmental context to present a cohesive and modern housing solution.

Design Visualization | Original Lakeside Exterior Concept Early architectural visualization of the contemporary lakefront residence, showing the original exterior design and material palette. The concept featured a lighter warm-grey exterior with contrasting natural stone, expansive glazing and strong horizontal rooflines intended to frame views toward the water. As the project progressed through design development and construction, the exterior colour palette was revised to a deeper, more contemporary tone while maintaining the original massing, proportions, glazing and overall architectural character.
