The modern geometric home, designed by Santa Monica, located in Los Angeles, California. The modern geometric home is composed of a collection of daring folds, sharp angles and various volumes connected on the 10,000-sq.-ft. property. This contemporary design based Tighe Architecture incorporates a number of buildings, which are structured around a private central courtyard that invites the outdoors into these modern living spaces. From the outside, this cool house is characterized by its unique folded roof and walls. Windows, seemingly scattered about the facade, were strategically placed to frame the fabulous views. Inside this two-storey home, the details are simple, and simply impeccable. A soaring focal wall features cut-outs that echo the home’s windows, with a skylight at the top as its crowning glory. The finishes are minimal yet luxury, like the rich wood floors, and the gorgeous kitchen featuring warm woods and cool stone tiles, enclosed in a wall of windows with a pool-side walkout. A guest house and pool house are mirror images of one another. The modern geometric home [via] luxury home
Alan-Voo Family House in Los Angeles by Californian practice Neil M. Denari Architects.This is a Project Description from Neil M. Denari Architects :
The scheme leaves half of the house for the daughter’s bedrooms and incorporates the other half plus new extensions in front and back into a public zone and a private bedroom for the parents.
This strategy amounts to a new 16 ft wide linear house being inserted into the existing house. Multi-toned, bright colors accentuate the new pieces which suggests a graphic expression representative of the family’s interests.More about Family house [via] modern house design.
House of inclusion designed by FORM/Kouichi Kimura Architects, located in Shiga, Japan.Here’s some text from the architect: This house, located in a new residential area, is for a 30-something couple. Surrounded by other houses, the design goal was set up to block out the outside world while avoiding too much closure, as well as to provide rich and sensuous spaces.First, a small patio and a path connected to it were laid out between the living or dining room and exterior. They are surrounded by a wall that blocks off the line of sight from outside. Planting and pond are laid out at the patio, so that the picturesque images of green and water are viewed from the rooms. Enclosed by walls that create indirect light filling softly the entire room, the house presents sentimental scenes here and there. The living spaces and the life lived there are enveloped by green and light, creating an affectionate environment.Architects: FORM/Kouichi Kimura Architects Location: Shiga, Japan Client: Private Construction Year: 2009 Site Area: 215,35m2 Constructed Area: 151,71m2 Photographs: Takumi Otmore information about the inclusion of house [via] best house design.
The four equal sized boxes are built as simple wood construction covered with corrugated metal panels on the outside and wood and gypsum panels on the inside. The floor plan is based on the needs of a traditional country house. Only partially the organization of the rooms is a direct consequence of the rigid outer form. The Living Room focuses on the different light conditions needed for an existing and future art collection, while the great view into the nearby countryside is present without being dominant. The sequence of the different rooms reflects the idea of a private gallery. Natural light is coming into the spaces through the openings in between the outer boxes.

Luxury House Makes Modern Luxury a Daily Event, located in Brentwood Park, Beverly Hills. This spectacular contemporary house sports a structured, clean facade of white with glass held in place by a striking black frame. A circular tower leads the way to the entrance, where you’ll find a wonderland of wood and windows. Floors and ceilings feature rich hardwood, which abuts the floor-to-ceiling glass walls. Beyond is an endless view of the Los Angeles city skyline which, incidentally, can be enjoyed just as much (if not, more) from the outdoor terraces encircling the building.
