Danish modern design showcases spectacular views of the Park City area in this recent project. The interior designer/homeowner and her family worked closely with Park City Design + Build to create what she describes as a “study in transparent, indoor/outdoor mountain living.” Large LiftSlides, a pivot door, glass walls and other units, all in Zola’s Thermo Alu75™ line, frame views and give easy access to the outdoors, while complementing the sleek but warm palette and design.

This prefabricated 1,800 square foot Certified Passive House is designed and built by The Artisans Group, located in the rugged central highlands of Shaw Island, in the San Juan Islands. It is the first Certified Passive House in the San Juans, and the fourth in Washington State. The home was built for $330 per square foot, while construction costs for residential projects in the San Juan market often exceed $600 per square foot. Passive House measures did not increase this projects’ cost of construction. The clients are retired teachers, and desired a low-maintenance, cost-effective, energy-efficient house in which they could age in place; a restful shelter from clutter, stress and over-stimulation. The circular floor plan centers on the prefabricated pod. Radiating from the pod, cabinetry and a minimum of walls defines functions, with a series of sliding and concealable doors providing flexible privacy to the peripheral spaces. The interior palette consists of wind fallen light maple floors, locally made FSC certified cabinets, stainless steel hardware and neutral tiles in black, gray and white. The exterior materials are painted concrete fiberboard lap siding, Ipe wood slats and galvanized metal. The home sits in stunning contrast to its natural environment with no formal landscaping.

Big sliding doors integrate the inside and outside of the house. The nice small framed aluminium doors are as high as the extension.

The Yin-Yang House is a net-zero energy single-family home in a quiet Venice, CA neighborhood. The design objective was to create a space for a large and growing family with several children, which would create a calm, relaxed and organized environment that emphasizes public family space. The home also serves as a place to entertain, and a welcoming space for teenagers as they seek social space with friends. The home is organized around a series of courtyards and other outdoor spaces that integrate with the interior of the house. Facing the street the house appears to be solid. However, behind the steel entry door is a courtyard, which reveals the indoor-outdoor nature of the house behind the solid exterior. From the entry courtyard, the entire space to the rear garden wall can be seen; the first clue of the home’s spatial connection between inside and out. These spaces are designed for entertainment, and the 40 foot sliding glass door to the living room enhances the harmonic relationship of the main room, allowing the owners to host many guests without the feeling of being overburdened. The tensions of the house’s exterior are subtly underscored by a 12-inch steel band that hews close to, but sometimes rises above or falls below the floor line of the second floor – a continuous loop moving inside and out like a pen that is never lifted from the page, but reinforces the intent to spatially weave together the indoors with the outside as a single space. Scale manipulation also plays a formal role in the design of the structure. From the rear, the house appears to be a single-story volume. The large master bedroom window and the outdoor steps are scaled to support this illusion. It is only when the steps are animated with people that one realizes the true scale of the house is two stories. The kitchen is the heart of the house, with an open working area that allows the owner, an accomplished chef, to converse with friends while cooking. Bedrooms are intentionally designed to be very small and simple; allowing for larger public spaces, emphasizing the family over individual domains. The breakfast room looks across an outdoor courtyard to the guest room/kids playroom, establishing a visual connection while defining the separation of uses. The children can play outdoors while under adult supervision from the dining area or the office, or do homework in the office while adults occupy the adjacent outdoor or indoor space. Many of the materials used, including the bamboo interior, composite stone and tile countertops and bathroom finishes are recycled, and reinforce the environmental DNA of the house, which also has a green roof. Blown-in cellulose insulation, radiant heating and a host of other sustainable features aids in the performance of the building’s heating and cooling. The active systems in the home include a 12 KW solar photovoltaic panel system, the largest such residential system available on the market. The solar panels also provide shade from the sun, preventing the house from becoming overheated. The owners have been in the home for over nine months and have yet to receive a power bill.

The exterior of the studio shows the green roof, in which many indigenous plant species are grown. The iron ladders lead to a winding iron staircase on the other end of the building.

The new extension included a big rooflight almost taking the whole space of the roof. A Wildflower roof edge was included to soften the impact of the new extension and allow for views form the formal dining room at first floor.

Knowle House is set on a beautiful sloped site in Cranham, between Stroud and Gloucester. A glass extension provides a new living and dining space attached to the Grade-II Listed property. The extension has large contemporary glazed doors which slide back to connect the living space to the garden patio. A green roof finishes the flat roof and a projecting cantilevered canopy provides shading to control solar gain. Rainwater is captured firstly in the green roof, which then passes playfully down a ‘rain chain’ into the flower bed. A narrow slot rooflight fills the extension with natural daylight, washing across the original Cotswold stone wall, now incorporated within the extension to provide a feature wall.

Framed by rustic fieldstone and modern black windows, the main living space, a walk-out balcony, and a wing of three guest suites all overlook the lake at our Modern Northwoods Cabin. An outdoor kitchen, green roof, private guest suite patios, and a bocce ball court (behind the fieldstone wall) are just some of the unexpected luxuries of this modern lodge.
