Patio of the Week: A Blend of European and Japanese Styles

Q

This home has a central axis. You can see through the front door to the backyard and the backyard continues the axis up to the grassy spaces.

Q

Interesting.

An Inviting Contemporary Home With a Focus on Art

Like the style and lightness.

Very open space. Kid's area on first floor. Gathering and parent's space upstairs. But everything flows between and into each other.

The balcony is only accessible from the bedrooms. Nice two-story foyer allows light (and sound) from both floors.

Houzz Tour: At a Working Horse Farm, a Mix of Rustic and Refined

Q

Kitchen in the middle of the living space.

The second floor contains the family room and is only above the kitchen. I assume the bedrooms are on the third floor which covers the entire space.

Broken-plan

Q

Photo

Connected, but separate. Broken-plan living space.

Q

Photo

Bifold door inside for separation when you want it.

Q

Photo

Genius separating wall in this studio separates the spaces, provides storage, allows light to filter into the bedroom and stores the TV. Also, the central part holding the TV rotates so it can be viewed from either side.

Q

Photo

Apparently this is called “broken-plan” living and I like it. Gives a little privacy without isolating.

I like this layout roughly.

Q

Unique.

I like this simple home plan.

Sleeping box in a small studio.

Q

Sleeping box. Great solution for a small studio (290 sqft.)

Q

Photo

Great small space

Q

Photo

Another possible configuration of these rooms.

Q

Photo

This layout with the kitchen sideways looking towards the windows behind the photographer.

Q

Photo

Kitchen to dining to living flow, with TV above fireplace and windows all around.

Q

Photo

With the living room directly in front of the kitchen, with windows all around. Probably need separate room for TV.

Q

Gorgeous little apartment

Second story "bridge"

Q

Overlook from second floor.

Q

Love this setup with the double fireplace between the living and library.

Q

Photo

Open but still separate. Love the outdoor area jutting in.

Q

Photo

The spaces wrap around an interior terrace.

Q

Photo

Couldn't do this in our now house, but completely open.

Q

Great tiny space.

Reminds me of a plan we were looking at. I like it with a little adjustment.

The opening between the two floors connects them through sound and space, but also connects them more to the outside and lets in tons of light.

Look at the rest of the house and the other homes done by this company! Love them all!
