The Tice Residences replace a run-down and aging duplex with two separate, modern, Santa Barbara homes. Although the unique creek-side site (which the client’s original home looked toward across a small ravine) proposed significant challenges, the clients were certain they wanted to live on the lush “Riviera” hillside. The challenges presented were ultimately overcome through a thorough and careful study of site conditions. With an extremely efficient use of space and strategic placement of windows and decks, privacy is maintained while affording expansive views from each home to the creek, downtown Santa Barbara and Pacific Ocean beyond. Both homes appear to have far more openness than their compact lots afford. The solution strikes a balance between enclosure and openness. Walls and landscape elements divide and protect two private domains, and are in turn, carefully penetrated to reveal views. Both homes are variations on one consistent theme: elegant composition of contemporary, “warm” materials; strong roof planes punctuated by vertical masses; and floating decks. The project forms an intimate connection with its setting by using site-excavated stone, terracing landscape planters with native plantings, and utilizing the shade provided by its ancient Riviera Oak trees. 2012 AIA Santa Barbara Chapter Merit Award Jim Bartsch Photography

Bedroom - coastal bedroom idea in Portland Maine

Special considerations were taken to elevate the washer and dryer on custom made platforms in consideration of flooding. The laundry room was designed strategically for the Hoboken easy, simple lifestyle. The built-in laundry units were carefully chosen because of their compact size and innovative functionalities traditional. With the many dimensions, this wonderful laundry room has ample storage and a folding station for the client and her newborn triplets.

This is an example of a small modern partial sun front yard stone garden path in Toronto.

Stellar views and natural light embrace this Reynold's Mountain home throughout. Anigre wood in three custom colors create art in the form of simple, slab doors in both the kitchen and bar areas. The tall peninsula of cabinetry defines the kitchen and adjacent hall, while the stone and wood island serves as the centerpiece extraordinaire. Both trendy and timeless, this kitchen exudes the best of what is new with traditional functionality in every way.

Designed and constructed by Los Angeles architect, John Southern and his firm Urban Operations, the Slice and Fold House is a contemporary hillside home in the cosmopolitan neighborhood of Highland Park. Nestling into its steep hillside site, the house steps gracefully up the sloping topography, and provides outdoor space for every room without additional sitework. The first floor is conceived as an open plan, and features strategically located light-wells that flood the home with sunlight from above. On the second floor, each bedroom has access to outdoor space, decks and an at-grade patio, which opens onto a landscaped backyard. The home also features a roof deck inspired by Le Corbusier’s early villas, and where one can see Griffith Park and the San Gabriel Mountains in the distance.
