Whistler residence by Battersby Howat

I am really liking the structure and design of the Whistler residence by Battersby Howat. I love seeing the interior elements at play in this house, when wood, concrete and glass get together it creates a killer combination. The black stained shingles really contrast amazingly well with the concrete exteriors. Red cedar and douglas fir were used throughout the house to provide warmth.

V4 House by Marcio Kogan MK27 Architects

I was perusing through one of my blogging pals site, Dee Adams and came across a modern interior that stopped me dead in my tracks. Can you say Papa Bear Chairs in Stereo, not only in stereo but in kelly green! The rest of the house is amazing as well, there are way too many killer pieces and element in this house to make a list, so let us all enjoy the view.

Laslett House - Designed by the architect Trevor Dannatt

While looking through The Modern House Estate Agents website there were two houses that stood out to me, I already posted about Tavistock Terrace. The other is the Laslett House, Designed by the architect Trevor Dannatt for the Cambridge professor Peter Laslett in 1958. There is something so authentic about this home, it has been so well taken care of. I would say that most of the furnishing are of the time period as well. The home was for sale with plans for an annexe also designed by Dannatt that is sympathetic to the original building, but the home is currently “under offer”.

Modern interiors captured by Tim Van de Velde

Tim Van de Velde has seen and captured some stunning modern interiors. Every time I see a photographers portfolio full of amazing images like these I get a little envious, envious because I would love to see these places and experience the atmosphere that they create. Oh, some day wouldn’t it be great if I could take a semi decent photo……some day.

Concrete sinks by Gore Design Co.

I am totally amazed at what Gore Design Co. is doing with concrete. For me their modern concrete sinks are their strongest design elements. Their different designs and concepts are pretty limitless, but their execution is flawless. I am totally digging on the geometric designs that they have. This is a small selection of images from their portfolio, make sure to go check out the rest.

Tavistock Terrace - Modern in London

Listed on The Modern House Estate Agents website, Tavistock Terrace is a great industrial building turned modern living space. From the inside you still get some of those reminders of what the building once was. Exposed brick and a steel beam running through the home adds some great visual texture. I love what was done on the inside with the design choices, clean minimal and modern.
