Unfolding Modern House

Casa Tropical - modern home design

1: the podium, at street level, looks over the garden. Two volumes sheltering ancillary functions leave an open space for permanence, with wide views over the garden, under the shadow of the house above.
2: the rooms are accessed via the gallery, which is wrapped in a wooden skin that negotiates privacy, views, ventilation and shadow, this last one treated as a living ornament. The walls have the roughness of hand crafted bricks, painted ice white.
3: the living room is a house on the trees, a wooden house on top of the concrete house. The open roof leaves space for 3,20 m high glass panels, merging coconut trees, dunes and sea in the open plan interior.

Tree House Design Modern - wooden house
From the heart to a quiet forest in Wilmington, Delaware, this contemporary tree house was admittedly a labor of love for architect Whitney Sander of Sander Architects. With a rushing stream at its feet, Tree House features a spectacular spiral staircase, running up the front of the home, past the modern Juliet-inspired balcony, and the expanse of glass that forms the front facade. The home’s very vertical construction places the master bedroom and living at the top, among the trees, with a rooftop deck as the most luxurious crowning touch.

House Dijk Designed by Jager Janssen architecture
The roof of this home comprise one entity. The skin, consisting of anthracite-coloured corrugated sheets. Maximizing this effect, the entire home dwelling is positioned one meter above ground level, resulting on a spacious lower ground floor. The exterior of the dwelling looks rather solid and closed. The interior experience is one of beautiful spatial impressions.

Green Home Design The Twencent
Contemporary green home built in Vermont. With a super-insulated structure and passive heating and cooling, the home uses less of the mechanical systems for temperature control. To further reduce the use of fossil fuel in powering the house, the owners installed a geothermal heat pump system and heat recovery ventilator (to keep the air filtered and fresh). Raedia and Ian's home was design by Ian's father and the landscaping will be done by Ian's mother. Between everyone in the family, they've sure found a way to build a cool green home, with green kitchen design to make modern home have green interior design.
