The Goody Nook, named by the owners in honor of one of their Great Grandmother's and Great Aunts after their bake shop they ran in Ohio to sell baked goods, thought it fitting since this space is a place to enjoy all things that bring them joy and happiness. This studio, which functions as an art studio, workout space, and hangout spot, also doubles as an entertaining hub. Used daily, the large table is usually covered in art supplies, but can also function as a place for sweets, treats, and horderves for any event, in tandem with the kitchenette adorned with a bright green countertop. An intimate sitting area with 2 lounge chairs face an inviting ribbon fireplace and TV, also doubles as space for them to workout in. The powder room, with matching green counters, is lined with a bright, fun wallpaper, that you can see all the way from the pool, and really plays into the fun art feel of the space. With a bright multi colored rug and lime green stools, the space is finished with a custom neon sign adorning the namesake of the space, "The Goody Nook”.

Auger Architectural Gem

Penny Lane Home Builders, LLC

This gem of a home was designed by homeowner/architect Eric Vollmer. It is nestled in a traditional neighborhood with a deep yard and views to the east and west. Strategic window placement captures light and frames views while providing privacy from the next door neighbors. The second floor maximizes the volumes created by the roofline in vaulted spaces and loft areas. Four skylights illuminate the ‘Nordic Modern’ finishes and bring daylight deep into the house and the stairwell with interior openings that frame connections between the spaces. The skylights are also operable with remote controls and blinds to control heat, light and air supply. Unique details abound! Metal details in the railings and door jambs, a paneled door flush in a paneled wall, flared openings. Floating shelves and flush transitions. The main bathroom has a ‘wet room’ with the tub tucked under a skylight enclosed with the shower. This is a Structural Insulated Panel home with closed cell foam insulation in the roof cavity. The on-demand water heater does double duty providing hot water as well as heat to the home via a high velocity duct and HRV system.

here we needed to handle two focal points as the homeowners did not want the tv over the fireplace. the fireplace surround design needed to consider the beautiful beams and the small windows on the sides it was decided to create a strong center and let everything around it enhance the ambiance . the wall unit was designed around the tv and was painted as the wall color with walnut movable dividers to complete the other walls rather than competing with them

eltejadoazul - reformas e interiorismo

La reforma comienza por un desmantelamiento casi total del sistema de divisiones de la anterior casa, creando una tabula rasa en búsqueda de la mayor expresividad y ligereza de espacios. En ese proceso de retroceso a lo radical de lo constructivo se retiran del mismo modo cerramientos, como el que rodeaba la terraza (con apariencia más bien de pequeño patinillo), además de la piel del sistema estructural de pilares con vigas descolgadas. "La condición por parte del cliente fue que los materiales fueran muy expresivos hasta llegar a su forma casi brutalista. Los nuevos materiales son el hierro natural y la madera de pino", explica Cristina Cucinella, arquitecta del estudio. A estos nuevos materiales se les suma el hormigón visto, sacado a la luz de la estructura original. La nueva organización de la vivienda será secuencial, eliminando cualquier posibilidad de espacio residual, reduciendo lo espacial también a su máxima sinceridad: una estancia te lleva a la siguiente, sin pasillos, sin distribuidores, empleando como únicos conectores la luz y la materialidad, y como divisores, la gradación de usos. De este modo, en la parte central de la vivienda se situarán el estudio y el baño, como una pieza neutra, intermedia; en la zona de acceso y junto a la luminosa terraza, ahora liberada de los muros que la rodeaban, se colocarán en "L" la cocina-comedor y el salón; al final de la casa, en el lugar más tranquilo, los dos dormitorios. El espacio de uso más nocturno se abre con dos grandes ventanales al exterior, inundando de luz los dormitorios. Casi como un juego de niños, sendas cajas de madera hacen de "balcón interior", salvando las irregularidades de la planta y creando un habitáculo dentro del habitáculo. Recuerda a aquellas casitas que hacíamos de niños, con los grandes cojines del sofá de casa de nuestros padres, cuando queríamos cobijarnos. El pavimento, también de madera pero de una blancura que potencia la luminosidad de los dormitorios, se orienta en diagonal, siguiendo el recorrido de la luz. En el centro, como charnela, la zona de estudio y baño se neutraliza, mostrándose en un bicromatismo blanco-negro, y situándose en el punto medio de los dos extremos en tensión El espacio diurno funciona como una vivienda patio, gracias a ese doble carácter de la nueva terraza: se vuelca hacia sí mismo, y se distribuye por su propia geometría en dos partes diferenciadas sin necesidad de divisores. La potente isla de la cocina y su continuidad en mesa de comedor hacen de esta pieza diseñada a medida su centro, mientras que en el ángulo se sitúa la zona de estar. Desde aquí parte un plano continuo de almacenamiento, correspondiente al muro medianero, que atravesará y conectará toda la casa. En la cocina-salón será una estantería de madera de pino; al cruzar la puerta pivotante que separa del área central de estudio, se convertirá en los armarios y espacios trastero. Grandes planchas correderas de hierro cierran el almacenaje, sobrepasando sus límites y prolongándolos más allá, hasta la estantería de madera en un extremo, y hasta las cajas de madera de los dormitorios. La intervención de El Tejado Azul es sencilla, lógica, sincera. Al mismo tiempo, resuelve las necesidades de sus clientes, y también sus deseos y caprichos. Pero no sólo eso... tiene algo más. Te puedes imaginar abriendo puertas secretas, refugiándote un día de humor raro con un libro en una de sus cajas de madera. Este hogar hace feliz a quien vive allí, se puede encontrar la ilusión de una vida resguardada en sus estancias, y ése es un material que la arquitectura jamás debería olvidar.

Living Room Design Photos with White Floor and Exposed Beam

A living room, often referred to as a lounge room in Australia and New Zealand, is the hub of the home. If you only have one living room in the house, it’s likely to serve multiple purposes: be it a place to watch TV, play games, spend quality time with family or hang out with friends. If you have the luxury of two living areas, one is usually a formal living room or lounge room, reserved for reading, relaxing and entertaining. A successful living room design is inviting, has enough seating for the whole clan – a comfortable couch is a must – and encourages conversation. Browse photos on Houzz for living room layouts, furniture and decor, and strike up a conversation with the interior designers or architects of your favourite picks. For even more living room ideas, check out the Stories section on Houzz.

Which living room layouts will work best for you?

Every living area will have design challenges. A long, narrow lounge room, for example, risks looking like a hallway if furniture is lined up against the walls. Instead, opt for small furniture items, like a cosy two-seater couch, and create various focal points throughout the space. In square living rooms, a symmetrical layout encourages a formal setting. Place seating on either side of the room, with a focal point in the middle to pull the room together. For a truly intimate vibe, replace your couch with some occasional chairs positioned around a coffee table or ottoman. This will make the main focus conversation. An open-plan home – one where the lines are blurred between kitchen, dining and living – may require a layout that focuses on definition. You’ll want to make sure furniture doesn’t block the flow between spaces, and instead use something like an area rug to create zones.

How can you decorate your living room?

The living room can be a place in which to show off your personality, but if you want a timeless living room scheme, stick to neutral walls, couches and ottomans. Colour can be added through accessories, and is a lot more interchangeable! Rugs, cushions and throws are great for adding colour, while mirrors, lamps and ceiling lights will set the mood. Make your living room unique by including family heirlooms and photos. For a polished look, try creating a coffee table vignette – you could use books as pedestals or group items together on a tray. Try adding a vase, a mixture of round and rectangular objects and some books.

What are some small living room ideas?

Small living room designs can be tricky to work with, but aren’t doomed to fail. Often, you just have to get creative with furniture. An open-back chaise can create a sense of spaciousness, while small side tables paired together can substitute a coffee table. Even better, an ottoman can be used as a footrest, coffee table or extra seating. Big furniture items like the couch are best kept in light colours, and if there’s room for a coffee table, a glass-top one is best. If you have two spaces in one – perhaps your living room sits in front of a single-wall kitchen – make sure they are connected by decor, colour and style. For definition, just add area rugs, or use your couch as a dividing wall. It’s worth having a few furniture pieces, whether a bookshelf, couch or entertainment unit, in the same colour as the walls, too, so they blend into the room and visually expand the space.

Is open-plan living for you?

Today’s homes often embrace open-plan living, whereby the living room runs off the kitchen and/or dining areas. Open-plan living allows greater functionality, but can risk creating a vast, soulless space if not done right. To avoid a cavernous feel in an open-plan design, define areas with furniture, rugs and lighting, or consider using a wall divider. Also be sure to keep flooring, lighting and materials consistent throughout, for cohesiveness. Noise may be an issue – someone banging pots and pans while you’re watching TV, for example – so include lots of soft furnishings, such as rugs, curtains and couches to help absorb the noise. You will also need to factor in plenty of storage, so mess is kept at bay.
