Exhibiting extraordinary depth and sophistication for a ten-metre wide lot, this is a home that defines Atrium’s commitment to small lot living; luxury living without compromise. A true classic, the Blue Gum presents a street façade that will stand the test of time and an elegant foyer that sets the scene for what is to come. Defying its measurements, the Blue Gum demonstrates superb volume, light and space thanks to clever design, high ceilings, well placed windows and perfectly proportioned rooms. A home office off the entry has built-in robes and is semi-ensuite to a fully tiled bathroom, making it ideal as a guest suite or second master suite. An open theatre or living room demonstrates Atrium’s attention to detail, with its intricate ceilings and bulkheads. Even the laundry commands respect, with a walk-in linen press and under-bench cupboards. Glazed double doors lead to the kitchen and living spaces; the sparkling hub of the home and a haven for relaxed entertaining. Striking granite benchtops, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry and separate workbench with appliance cupboard will appeal to any home chef. Dining and living spaces flow effortlessly from the kitchen, with the living area extending to a spacious alfresco area. Bedrooms and private spaces are upstairs – a sitting room and balcony, a luxurious main suite with walk-in robe and ensuite, and two generous sized additional bedrooms sharing an equally luxurious third bathroom. The Blue Gum. Another outstanding example of the award-winning style, luxury and quality Atrium Homes is renowned for.

Guadalajara, San Clemente Coastal Modern Remodel

Eyoh Design

Guadalajara, San Clemente Coastal Modern Remodel This major remodel and addition set out to take full advantage of the incredible view and create a clear connection to both the front and rear yards. The clients really wanted a pool and a home that they could enjoy with their kids and take full advantage of the beautiful climate that Southern California has to offer. The existing front yard was completely given to the street, so privatizing the front yard with new landscaping and a low wall created an opportunity to connect the home to a private front yard. Upon entering the home a large staircase blocked the view through to the ocean so removing that space blocker opened up the view and created a large great room. Indoor outdoor living was achieved through the usage of large sliding doors which allow that seamless connection to the patio space that overlooks a new pool and view to the ocean. A large garden is rare so a new pool and bocce ball court were integrated to encourage the outdoor active lifestyle that the clients love. The clients love to travel and wanted display shelving and wall space to display the art they had collected all around the world. A natural material palette gives a warmth and texture to the modern design that creates a feeling that the home is lived in. Though a subtle change from the street, upon entering the front door the home opens up through the layers of space to a new lease on life with this remodel.

Owl House - New Build

Nexus Design Solutions Ltd

The brief for Owl House was to design a new build house on a remote parcel of land where previously stood a modest farmstead. The client wanted a well insulated home that was efficient and cost effective to run. My concept of for the design was to produce a modern version of traditional looking farmstead buildings utilising a palette of old and new materials whilst introducing some of the latest technology to the fabric of the build and mechanical systems. The whole site is situated in a Floodzone so ground floor levels had to be raised in the first instance, so keeping the 3 storey 'barn effect' building modest in the landscape was challenging, however the finished product does stand well and received positive comments from the planning officers. I secured planning permission and produced detailed Building Regulations drawing that provided a specification well above the norm. The client project managed the build himself, working to a detailed cost estimate and ongoing support and consultancy from myself. This has to be the most enjoyable project I have had the privilege to work on to date.

Modern Exterior Design Ideas with a Tile Roof

The front exterior of your home – the driveway, front yard, verandah and entrance – is a fantastic place to start making that all-important first impression on house guests. Even mailboxes and house numbers can have a wonderful way of grabbing people’s attention. The architectural design should reflect the overall modern style of your house and the family that live there; while your choice of materials will help your house blend in with its surrounds. Browse the photos on Houzz for ideas and inspiration for the exterior of your modern house, and strike up a conversation with the architects and designers of your favourite picks. You’ll find house designs for contemporary, eclectic, modern, traditional styles and more.

How do I decide on the exterior style of my home?

Your location, overall sense of style, budget and current home layout will dictate the style of your exterior. If you’re renovating a period home, the materials and features you use should reflect the date in which it was built, while a unique colour scheme could add contemporary flair. New homes may prefer to look to modern or contemporary designs with structural simplicity, whereas, if you live by the ocean, a beach-style design may better suit your locale. That’s not to say you can’t build a new home that has period influences. If you’re a traditionalist, you can borrow architectural details from the Art Deco period, for instance, or use finishes that reflect more of a Scandinavian style, too.

What exterior house colours and materials should I use?

Traditional homes typically use brick and timber building materials, while stone, board-formed concrete and metal cladding are popular contemporary options. Again, the materials you use will depend on your location and the statement you want to make. Your budget will also affect your choice. Vinyl siding is affordable and easy to install, while stone is more expensive but durable and low maintenance. If you’re not ready to renovate but want to update the exterior of your home, you can still paint it. Look to your neighbours when choosing exterior house colours. Consider the streetscape and what type of colours are already in use, firstly, so you don’t replicate next door’s shade; and secondly, so you don’t stand out like a sore thumb. If you’re renovating a period home, you could paint features or intricate details in a bold, standout hue. Front doors, garage doors and window trims also look great in eye-catching colours, even if the rest of the house’s facade is neutral.

How can I maximise my home’s street appeal?

To spice up your home’s architectural design, landscape the surrounding area with plants and pathways that accent the modern style of your home. If you just need a quick revamp, look at your cement and pavers – these can split and crack over time; and repairing or replacing them can do wonders for your street appeal, especially if it’s a large area like your driveway. Plants, garden paths or low walls can can also add structure to your front yard. Light up your home with sufficient outdoor lighting to make walking up to the front door easy at night. You could use bollard lights along your entry path, or replace tiny wall sconces with statement pendant lighting at the entrance or on your verandah. Decorative elements such as house numbers, mailboxes and doormats will also add character. And if you're looking to sell your house, it may be worth hiring a stylist to help make the most of your property.
