It’s not easy to make the right stain and finish selections for the wood elements on this home. They are asked to hold their own visually, survive inside and out, and complement the exposed concrete walls. In addition some of the wood is reclaimed from two trees we had to cut to make room for the new home - they turned into some expressive colorful pieces! Luckily the future home owners have an expert eye and we are in good hands with the crack building team of Spoke & Hammer. .. slideshow: #nussbaumdelarosahome #woodstain #reclaimedwood #woodfinishing .. #modernhome #modernhomes #modernhomedesign #modernarchitecture #luxuryhomes #luxurylifestyle #luxuryhome #highend #architect #nc #sc #va #raleigh #durham #chapelhill #greensboro #charlotte #asheville #greenvillesc #wilmington #columbia #roanoke #modern #energyefficient #highperformance #green

This condominium design is strikingly innovative, incorporating a diverse array of geometric shapes into the structure, which makes it stand out architecturally. The spherical, cubic, and pyramidal glass units offer a variety of living experiences and views, potentially attracting a wide range of residents. The reflective glass facade not only enhances the visual appeal but also serves to bring the outside environment into each dwelling, creating a connection between the residents and the surrounding landscape. The entrance, made from marble and wood, adds a touch of elegance and warmth, inviting residents into a space that values both luxury and comfort. The integration of the building with the surrounding green spaces emphasizes sustainability and promotes well-being. In terms of design, it could be rated a 9 or 10 for its visionary approach to residential architecture, the harmonious blend of different geometric forms, and the commitment to integrating natural elements. It's a forward-thinking design that pushes the boundaries of conventional living spaces.

Introducing the latest addition to our residential development typologies: The Horizon House! This typology consists of two distinct units: a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom unit and a 2-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom unit. Each unit boasts its own covered patio and braai area, with a slanted chimney design that provides ventilation for both built-in braais and acts as a privacy-enhancing boundary wall between the units. Designed for modern living, both units offer an open-plan kitchen, dining room, and living area on the ground floor, connected by a sleek suspended staircase leading to the bedrooms on the first floor. The master bedrooms, complete with full ensuite bathrooms, open onto a north-facing balcony. Each unit also enjoys access to a private garden with the option for a pool and entertainment area. The 3-bedroom unit includes a double garage, while the 2-bedroom unit has a single garage and covered parking. . . . #residentialdevelopment #property #construction #propertydevelopment #development #propertydeveloper #architecture #residential #residentialunits #residentialdesign #home #homedesign #residentialdesign #constructionindustry #residentialestate #modernaesthetics #contemporary #propertyinvestor #contemporarydesign #architecturaldesign #architect #contemporaryliving #contemporarylifestyle #kunzraubenheimerarchitects

Transform your garage from clutter central to a haven of functionality with these four straightforward tips! 🛠️📦 First, check out the world of storage bins - they're not just containers, but the first step to reclaiming your space. Next, adopt a ruthless decluttering attitude; if it hasn't been used in a year, it's time to say goodbye. Consider wall-mounted shelves and hooks to take advantage of vertical space and keep the floor clear. Finally, label everything. Knowing exactly where things are will save you time and headaches. Embrace these changes and watch your garage become more than just a storage area; it becomes a usable, efficient part of your home.

One of my favorite homes to have done in Miami Beach with $750K in windows and doors from 5 different manufacturers, it had a lot of complexity. I can help you select, specify and detail windows and doors free from dealer and manufacturer bias. An interesting story that the shell sat abandoned for years before it was bought and redesigned by a client and architect out of New York and the final result was so much better than the original. And one of the tallest homes on Miami Beach. #construction #architecture #design #luxurymiamirealestate #caribbeanrealestate #miamirealestate #luxurydesign #luxuryarchitecture #windowsanddoors #architecturedesign #coastalhomes #builders #beachhomes #coastalliving #designers #luxuryhomes #architectureanddesign #contemporarydesign #architecturelovers

What to Expect from Homes Built Over 50 Years Ago 🏠✨ Considering a home built over 50 years ago? These properties are rich in history, character, and unique architectural details that are rare in modern homes. But they also come with important considerations: 📌Architectural Charm: Expect distinctive styles like Victorian, Craftsman, or Mid-Century Modern, with high-quality craftsmanship, intricate woodwork, and vintage fixtures. 📌Solid Construction: Many older homes feature sturdy foundations and thicker walls, providing durability and sound insulation. Potential Renovations: Be prepared for updates, like modernizing electrical systems, plumbing, and key areas like kitchens and bathrooms. 📌Historical Significance: Owning such a home offers a piece of history but may come with renovation restrictions to preserve its original architecture. 📌Energy Efficiency: Improvements like insulation upgrades, double-pane windows, and modern HVAC systems may be needed. 📌Prime Location: Often in established neighborhoods with mature landscaping and easy access to amenities. 📌Buying a home with this much history can be rewarding, blending charm with modern comforts.
