This modern beach house in Jacksonville Beach features a large, open entertainment area consisting of great room, kitchen, dining area and lanai. A unique second-story bridge over looks both foyer and great room. Polished concrete floors and horizontal aluminum stair railing bring a contemporary feel. The kitchen shines with European-style cabinetry and GE Profile appliances. The private upstairs master suite is situated away from other bedrooms and features a luxury master shower and floating double vanity. Two roomy secondary bedrooms share an additional bath.

A natural flagstone path winds through young trees and drought-tolerant plantings, bordered by smooth river rock for drainage and definition. Low-profile landscape lighting adds subtle illumination, guiding movement from the patio to the lawn with both function and charm. The mix of stone, greenery, and structure creates a polished, low-maintenance transition between outdoor living spaces.

This bunker-style room has a distinct industrial and minimalist aesthetic. The space features raw, unfinished concrete walls and ceiling, contributing to a rugged, utilitarian look. The bed has a simple, low-profile design, matching the concrete theme with a sturdy base and a crisp white duvet, creating a stark contrast against the dark surroundings. The lighting is subdued, with black, wall-mounted lamps providing a warm glow over the bedside, enhancing the room's moody ambiance.
The doorway leads to what appears to be a small study or workspace, separated by a sliding concrete partition. The room's design focuses on functionality and durability, reflecting a secure, fortress-like environment. This setup likely serves as a private, secure retreat, emphasizing simplicity and the raw appeal of industrial materials.

This serene, light-filled living room masterfully achieves a refined modern warm aesthetic with soft, neutral tones and organic accents. A sleek stone fireplace serves as the central focal point, flanked by natural light-wood floating shelves and subtle built-in cabinetry. Plush cream-upholstered sofas are accented with terracotta and sage green pillows, surrounding a low-profile layered coffee table on a subtle textured area rug. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors frame peaceful waterfront views, seamlessly connecting the indoor lounge space to a private covered patio. Above, a ring chandelier with frosted glass shades casts a warm, inviting glow over the open-concept design.

In the library, a custom metal and glass screen provides a view to the foyer, but also separates the room for private conversation or quiet reading.

Klopf Architecture, Arterra Landscape Architects, and Flegels Construction updated a classic Eichler open, indoor-outdoor home. Expanding on the original walls of glass and connection to nature that is common in mid-century modern homes. The completely openable walls allow the homeowners to truly open up the living space of the house, transforming it into an open air pavilion, extending the living area outdoors to the private side yards, and taking maximum advantage of indoor-outdoor living opportunities. Taking the concept of borrowed landscape from traditional Japanese architecture, the fountain, concrete bench wall, and natural landscaping bound the indoor-outdoor space. The Truly Open Eichler is a remodeled single-family house in Palo Alto. This 1,712 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom is located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

Perched on a ridge 20 feet above a private lake in Stillwater, Minnesota, the clients wanted an age-in-place home where strong design influenced by the natural surroundings informed the space and shape of the project. CITYDESKSTUDIO carefully sited the home in one of the many natural clearings within their wooded property alongside a private lake, maximizing connection to the land, while preserving trees and natural topography. The home is distinguished by a light-filled, vaulted living area, a continuous timber loggia forming the entry court and connection to the garage, and a landscape design filled with rain gardens and indigenous rocks and plantings. The home features one-level living with a walk-out lower level which maintains a low profile upon approach, allowing the home to fit gracefully within its context. Sustainable features include landscaping with rain gardens to control rainwater, thermal mass concrete, geothermal in-floor heating, and a 10 kilowatt photovoltaic array with home batteries to allow fully off-grid living. Locally sourced building materials were used where possible for cedar siding and patio paving, including re-used soapstone counters. Select trees were harvested directly off the land for the staircase, interior wall finishes and the 10-foot dining table.
