Located in the outskirts of Alajuela, Coyol is a humid weather area full of lush green land-scapes and stunning views. The clients were looking for a house able to integrate public areas, front, and backyard within one single space. Twix House is conceptualized by two main curved dynamic shapes, which create one whole. Two twin L-shaped volumes are looking to opposite sides: sunrise facade and sunset facade, resulting in an S-shaped form of the entire house. Both contain the main and secondary bedrooms of the house, giving them unique views of the Central Valley mountains.
The main access entrance opens onto a double height lobby, crossed by the bridge in the center, and a curved staircase to the left. The main public area has a double height space, which is an open plan, containing the living room, dining room, and a kitchen. These spaces are connected by slid-ing doors that lead to the terrace, becoming a key element of the house, transforming the social areas and allowing for direct communication between indoor and outdoor spaces. The private areas of the house are located on the second floor: two bedrooms and a second living room. These are connected by a third volume, which is an interior bridge, articulating the house and integrating all the downstairs and upstairs areas together.
Due to the particularities of the climate zone, a special attention had to be paid to ensuring that the house remains fresh. Therefore, as a part of the process, different passive design strategies for tropical climate areas were implemented. For instance, the roof of the bridge overlaps the rest of the roof creating a gap, which acts as a monitor letting the hot air leave. Apart from that, the orientation of the building allows for cross ventilation to take place, resulting in cool and refreshing temperatures in-doors, despite the daily tropical heat.

Party Palace - Custom Ranch on Acreage in Ridgefield Washington by Cascade West Development Inc.
This family is very involved with their church and hosts community events weekly; so the need to access the kitchen, seating areas, dining and entryways with 100+ guests present was imperative. This prompted us and the homeowner to create extra square footage around these amenities. The kitchen also received the double island treatment. Allowing guests to be hosted at one of the larger islands (capable of seating 5-6) while hors d'oeuvres and refreshments can be prepared on the smaller more centrally located island, helped these happy hosts to staff and plan events accordingly. Placement of these rooms relative to each other in the floor plan was also key to keeping all of the excitement happening in one place, making regular events easy to monitor, easy to maintain and relatively easy to clean-up. Some other important features that made this house a party-palace were a hidden butler's pantry, multiple wetbars and prep spaces, sectional seating inside and out, and double dining nooks (formal and informal).

This solution provides ample storage for your tiny tot’s toys. Parenting experts suggest that one of the keys to helping kids put things away is a routine. Among the things that can help establish a routine are definite places to put playthings. Just think about how confusing it is for you, the adult, to put things away if you don’t know where to put them. Kids are the same way, only they are usually less driven to find the right spot for that giant panda.
Effective children’s storage needs to be kid-sized and in a configuration that is specific for your home. CHP can design just the right custom application to meet your needs. Six open shelves, six doors, two top shelves, and a place for a small TV highlight the Kildeer design.
The project starts with white melamine as a base for a neat looking and easy-to-clean storage installation. Flat panel fronts help keep things simple, but you are free to choose your own finish and front style. Bar pull handles provide a simple and classic solution.
The open shelves will be a kid’s favorite. They may want to find their Legos quickly if they have an immediate urge to build. Elmo may need to be positioned for quick deployment.
While other toys, i.e. Kacey the Pink Koala might be better off hidden behind doors. Also, you may want to help your child see the value of stowing those noisy toys where they are not the first thing deployed in the early morning.
A mounted TV, in its place, brings in the kid’s favorite programming into an easy to monitor space.
Think about custom designed toy storage in your house and, if you want to be a popular Grandparent, Uncle or Aunt, consider giving a play storage solution to the parents of the child who makes your eyes sparkle.

This Portland Zen Garden features two double gate sets to enter the serene back yard. The client chose our Asian Style Gate Latch and dummy handle for the gates. To top it all off, there’s a guest house for rent at the back of the property. Reservation, please?!
A view from the exterior of the double gate shows the active latch alongside a dummy handle, to present a symmetrical look as you approach the yard.

An old door and brass backplate with a new reproduction black knob give this beach house front door charm.
