The floating double vanity is the centerpiece of the vanity wall, with flat-front white cabinetry that appears to hover above the herringbone porcelain tile floor. The adjacent subway tile shower wall is just visible, reinforcing the crisp contrast between the white surfaces and matte black hardware throughout.

The extension’s two glazed sides face directions where the sunlight usually comes from and better views are. The glazed panels slide back, leaving an open, column-free corner, reinforcing the idea of a seamless connection between the inside and outside.

A couple wanted a weekend retreat without spending a majority of their getaway in an automobile. Therefore, a lot was purchased along the Rocky River with the vision of creating a nearby escape less than five miles away from their home. This 1,300 sf 24’ x 24’ dwelling is divided into a four square quadrant with the goal to create a variety of interior and exterior experiences while maintaining a rather small footprint. Typically, when going on a weekend retreat one has the drive time to decompress. However, without this, the goal was to create a procession from the car to the house to signify such change of context. This concept was achieved through the use of a wood slatted screen wall which must be passed through. After winding around a collection of poured concrete steps and walls one comes to a wood plank bridge and crosses over a Japanese garden leaving all the stresses of the daily world behind. The house is structured around a nine column steel frame grid, which reinforces the impression one gets of the four quadrants. The two rear quadrants intentionally house enclosed program space but once passed through, the floor plan completely opens to long views down to the mouth of the river into Lake Erie. On the second floor the four square grid is stacked with one quadrant removed for the two story living area on the first floor to capture heightened views down the river. In a move to create complete separation there is a one quadrant roof top office with surrounding roof top garden space. The rooftop office is accessed through a unique approach by exiting onto a steel grated staircase which wraps up the exterior facade of the house. This experience provides an additional retreat within their weekend getaway, and serves as the apex of the house where one can completely enjoy the views of Lake Erie disappearing over the horizon. Visually the house extends into the riverside site, but the four quadrant axis also physically extends creating a series of experiences out on the property. The Northeast kitchen quadrant extends out to become an exterior kitchen & dining space. The two-story Northwest living room quadrant extends out to a series of wrap around steps and lounge seating. A fire pit sits in this quadrant as well farther out in the lawn. A fruit and vegetable garden sits out in the Southwest quadrant in near proximity to the shed, and the entry sequence is contained within the Southeast quadrant extension. Internally and externally the whole house is organized in a simple and concise way and achieves the ultimate goal of creating many different experiences within a rationally sized footprint.

Dark honed granite tops the island with rustic alder cabinets. Upper cabinets float above the dual-level island that houses the stove and commercial grade ice maker. To give a clean look, the granite continues as a backsplash with outlets located only under the cabinets. The upper cabinets are suspended from the ceiling, which had to be reinforced, by steel pipes that also conceal wiring for the LED under cabinet and in cabinet lighting and under cabinet receptacle power strips. Custom glass shelves and doors in the upper cabinets help to define the dining area from the kitchen while allowing light to filter through. The opposite island contains the sink, dishwasher and an in cabinet microwave drawer. The oversize granite top extends past the cabinets, allowing for casual seating adjacent to the Great Room. Both islands are faced with pre-cast stone that repeats the natural elements of the exterior. Exposed beams with historic warehouse flooring is utilized as the kitchen/dining room ceiling and also the 2nd floor loft/bedroom/bathroom flooring. Since both sides are visible, all planks on the underside had to be individually sanded and hand finished before hidden deck fastener installation. Utilizing the same material as the ceiling, a chase was constructed to allow sub contractors to supply electric, ventilation and the sound system. Cable lighting provides a minimalist look without obstructing any views.

The media cabinet and the opposite wall are clad with hot rolled steel and flank the living room in order to direct the relationship of the space between that of the kitchen, living room, and the outdoor patio. The ceiling plane which is clad with Olive wood panels also serve to reinforce the relationship between the kitchen and the living room spaces. Furnishings by poliform.

Slim Aarons Pool At Las Hadas About this photograph The locations of photographs are very important in Aarons' work, and one of his preferred themes is holidaymakers. Slim Aarons' style reflects the Jet Set that he photographs: it is flawless. Beyond any anthropological notions, the artist seeks above all to represent a lifestyle that treads the fine line between paradise-on-earth and a fake, fairytale decor. Representations of taste in terms of the fashion, design and architecture of bygone eras reinforce this sensation. Rather than simply capturing a social milieu, the artist strives to represent a way of living life ‘as spectacle’.

Ania Omski-Talwar Location: Danville, CA, USA The house was built in 1963 and is reinforced cinder block construction, unusual for California, which makes any renovation work trickier. The kitchen we replaced featured all maple cabinets and floors and pale pink countertops. With the remodel we didn’t change the layout, or any window/door openings. The cabinets may read as white, but they are actually cream with an antique glaze on a flat panel door. All countertops and backsplash are granite. The original copper hood was replaced by a custom one in zinc. Dark brick veneer fireplace is now covered in white limestone. The homeowners do a lot of entertaining, so even though the overall layout didn’t change, I knew just what needed to be done to improve function. The husband loves to cook and is beyond happy with his 6-burner stove. https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/90234951/list/zinc-range-hood-and-a-limestone-fireplace-create-a-timeless-look davidduncanlivingston.com

truetoformdesign.com presents another masterful feat in design, craftsmanship and client fulfillment! This is a Walnut and Painted exterior TV DISPLAY w/a Walnut interior. The initial concept was to visually keep it simple with the floating cabinets and solid back panels. The actual details and execution in fabricating this piece was quite involved. The cabinet doors & drawers are beveled with the top and bottom of the continual outer shell creating a crisp color transition. The perimeter of the book-matched TV panel has a series of frames utilizing the direction of the grain to reinforce the concave shapes while using a painted boarder to define them. The outer most frame allows us to scribe the unit to the ceiling and create a spacial effect on the sides further enhanced with the RGB LED lighting behind washing color over the extreme end panels. The floating shelves off to one side add the asymmetry needed to allow a reserved amount of display and dynamics.
