Shipping Container Home Office in San Francisco, California Shipping containers continue to be a popular choice within the design world. Over the last few weeks we have encountered several implementations including the Shipping Container Guest House and of course the beautifully constructed Shipping Container Starbucks location. Both of these have been awesome ways of incorporating containers on the exterior area of a residence, but what about on the interior? This is exactly what San Francisco, California based couple Jeff Wardell and Claudia Sagan did in their 127 foot loft.
The Bob Project: Part 3 After months and months of planning and building, Bob's new home is finally complete. If you've been following Sweet Peach, you may remember Bob began the build of a classic modern home late last summer. Influenced by famed architect, Frank Lloyd Wright and a desire to tread lighter on the environment, Bob has brought his vision of the perfect home to life. I love the open floor plan and eye catching, spacious kitchen. Bob decided on the tankless hot water heater by Rinnai, which heats water in the home only as needed. I also really like how the heating and cooling features in his home, via Trane, are divided into four zones, depending on usage. I was happily surprised to see Bob go with a dark finish to his hardwood floors. The mantle is a beautiful piece and I like the roughness of it. Overall, Bob is quite content with his new home. And we can't forget Bass, Bob's young pup. Photos: chrislittlephotography.com Additional photos and Content: Sweet Peach

Award-Winning Fraser Residence On a Sloping Site | Architecture competitions Jan 23 This stunning building called Fraser Residence and it was designed by Christopher Simmonds Architects. Located in Ottawa, Ontario, the house was awarded Best Custom Urban Infill – 2011 Greater Ottawa Home Builders Association (GOHBA) Design Awards and we can see why this particular home was the winner – its architecture and interior design place it in the Dream Houses folder. According to the architects, the house displays interesting features that help the inhabitants live a comfortable, modern life: “Juxtaposed volumes define the exterior appearance of this modern home while interweaving special volumes define the expansive interior. The house takes advantage of its sloping site by inserting the garage into the lower level. This allows the elongated porch and glazed projections of the living spaces to define the home’s character in the streetscape. Share on Tumblr via freshome.com Similar Posts:
