Contemporary Interiors

This beautiful house by Sam Crawford Architects was designed for young family. It combines a lot of white color and wood, which makes home contemporary, elegant, warm and very cozy. The homeowners wanted to have enough sunlight and Crawford realized clients’ wish in a reality using panoramic windows in the interior. There are two stories in the house. In the ground floor dining-room, kitchen, living and sitting areas are situated. On the higher level there are private rooms. Partially covered veranda and open terrace gives a panoramic view of the Sydney Harbor. So this house is both modern in style and comfortable for family life.

Jorge Aguilar is a very talented artist that seems to enjoy experimenting very much. His web site here has a large set of mind blowing art pieces but what interests us the most is this great project, when he had a hand in interior decorating. Considering how talented Jorge as an artist, it’s not surprising how stylish and holistic his interior is. We only see one wall with the shelves and couches here that complement each other very well, but this theme could easily be extrapolated and build up to a very fresh and modern residence design. Of course the rest of the interior would have to be less detailed to avoid driving it’s inhabitants crazy by the riot of colors.

The Modern Villa Eindhoven is situated in the Netherlands between the neighboring backyards and a public parking lot. Interesting fact, that it’s practically invisible from noisy street. The exterior of two-storied house is clad in white plaster. Lots of panoramic windows create a contemporary look and let us see children playing. It was used a lot of luxurious materials in interior, such as black ebony wood , huge aluminum frames. On the ground floor there is a living room, a kitchen and an office chamber. Unusual partition between the private sleeping rooms and the living rooms is designed as a long black cabinet wall, running through the whole house. Bedrooms, laundry room and playrooms are situated on the higher level.

We’ve found this cool interior on the web a couple of days ago and we loved it from the first sight. Think of how cozy and warm it would be to hide there from the freezing cold Ottawa’s winter outside. Charming cats all over the place unwittingly show how comfy this residence is. We especially loved the shelf on the fifth picture and the variety of pictures and paintings on the walls. The kitchen stools look extraordinary, just like many other furniture pieces in this place, actually. The interior gets completed by the set of pillows and a couple of animal skins.

Take a guess about where this nice house is located. I don’t know about you, but I subconsciously feel by looking at the pictures that this is a British house. Maybe that’s because there is a plenty of neoclassical elements and this style has been popular in Britain for ages and still is, actually. There is a very original mixture of neoclassical and modern styles, the interior looks sober and calm. The only thing that we don’t get is how those floral-laced chairs are supposed to fit in to the interior, I guess the designers had to put that white-blue bowl in the kitchen to justify the chairs. The kitchen is rather good, black tiles contrast well with white surroundings and it seems to be very comfortable to cook in.

Alanna Davey is a stylist and interior designer in Toronto. We already reviewed quite a lot of interior designs, like this outstanding work by Yabu Pushelberg, but this Lady’s works are not just professional, but also very cheerful and cozy. You would never be unhappy while living in such a bright residence. She uses a wide variety of tricks and styles, absorbed from many cultures, ranging from neoclassical style like the one on the last picture, to the modern cozy style. We also loved some of the furniture on those pictures, like this original stand on the third picture.

Yabu Pushelberg is a professional design studio and they are really cool in creating original contemporary interiors. The following is a private residence in Miami they were working on. The distinctive feature of this studio is that their work is very harmonic and complete, even though there are always lost of details and things. You just can’t add anything to the interior below, and so nothing should be removed – furniture integrates seamlessly with decorations and appliances. Its surprising as at seems at the same time that there is a dangerous mixture of styles. But overall it looks like a very contemporary and cozy home. There is a plenty of other great interiors on Yabu Pushelberg web site here.

This beautiful modern house was built it Juarez, Mexico by Arquitectura en Movimiento. It’s name “The Cubo” sounds absolutely natural when you see it – the house has strict and sober exterior with sharp geometric shapes, actually reminding a couple of intersecting cubes. The house has a lot of big windows, most of which a looking towards the back yard since the building is U-shaped, so it is very light inside. Generally, the Cubo’s interior is very modern, practical and well-planned. In our opinion it looks more friendly and comfortable inside than outside and would be perfect for a young progressive family with two kids. There is also a little pound in the middle of composition. We would probably prefer to have Jacuzzi there, but it would not look as harmonic as this pound does.
