Beautiful Landscape Design by Lutsko Associates
 Mary | Share:  |
Without charming green garden this private house called SF Residence in San Francisco would remain an ordinary house. The landscaping project was realized by design studio Lutsko Associates, and everything has changed. As we can see on the plan, the garden divided into three interconnected green “rooms” with very high walls and no roof. Because of this, the plants are getting enough sunlight. Talented designers were able to turn this place into an oasis among the shady but bright corridors where its pleasant just to walk and forget about the city. Partitions of frosted glass, ornamented tile and small decorative pond add luxury.

Luxury design by A-Cero – House 10 in Madrid
 James | Share: |
We have recently reviewed the contemporary house design by A-Cero, which was built quite recently. The following house is another masterpiece by this famous Spanish studio. It refers to the end of 2008, when it was built in Madrid’s La Finca residential area along with many other unique houses, all designed by A-Cero. This huge house features sweeping light concrete exterior with sharp edges, making it look generous and even larger than it is and giving the contemporary feel. It would probably look unwelcoming and cold, if not the careful and well-thought design of the surrounding landscape and outstanding illumination, making the house shine like a gem at night. The interior complements the extraordinary architecture, at the same time providing the diversity of styles for different rooms, depending on their purpose.

Rivermouth Landscape in Carmel, California by Bernard Trainer
| James | Share: |
The first thought you may have when seeing this pictures is how well this house’s design integrates into the surrounding coastal foredunes. But this is rather an excellent example of landscape design, where the surrounding atmosphere of wild coast was created after the house was built. This isn’t one of the common cases of contemporary landscape design when short-cut grass on the neat hills struggle to create geometric perfection. All the plantings were carefully selected to emphasize the Californian oceanic view toward Point Lobos and yet brighten it up. The result is beautiful on the verge of reality – unusual flora lit by the sunset light sometimes makes you feel like you are dreaming.
Contemporary house design by A-Cero: La Finca II
| James | Share: |
This house is one of 30 houses designed by A-Cero as part of the La Finca 2 residential area. Their common idea is to integrate with hilly green surrounding landscape by Casla. The area is very scenic, with neat lawn, bushes and lakes, and the house’s exterior unites seamlessly with it. This luxurious house has seven bathrooms with separate baths and dressing rooms, dining room, office, kitchen and foyer. Materials picked with no compromise to exactly fulfill the designer’s ideas in construction, confirm project’s top class and yet make it resistant to the climate of the area. The interior is just as expected – worked until the last stroke and each of its detail proves that this house is really the state of art.
