This cozy lake cottage skillfully incorporates a number of features that would normally be restricted to a larger home design. A glance of the exterior reveals a simple story and a half gable running the length of the home, enveloping the majority of the interior spaces. To the rear, a pair of gables with copper roofing flanks a covered dining area and screened porch. Inside, a linear foyer reveals a generous staircase with cascading landing. Further back, a centrally placed kitchen is connected to all of the other main level entertaining spaces through expansive cased openings. A private study serves as the perfect buffer between the homes master suite and living room. Despite its small footprint, the master suite manages to incorporate several closets, built-ins, and adjacent master bath complete with a soaker tub flanked by separate enclosures for a shower and water closet. Upstairs, a generous double vanity bathroom is shared by a bunkroom, exercise space, and private bedroom. The bunkroom is configured to provide sleeping accommodations for up to 4 people. The rear-facing exercise has great views of the lake through a set of windows that overlook the copper roof of the screened porch below.

House 2 in a dual dwelling development in Koala Park where the site was subdivided for the two new dwellings. On a 332sqm North aspect site the dwelling was designed to allow a front North aspect pool courtyard with direct views to Burleigh Heads Ridgeline. The design was reflective of the South East Queensland Sub Tropical climate with lower floor living areas open to external entertaining decks, the pool courtyard and landscape. Large eave overhangs & oversized gutters with a flatter pitch hip roof & eaves boxed down to window heads indicative of Tropical Modernist Architecture. Planning to the Ground Floor was programmed with all public zones of living, dining, kitchen & a flexible guest bed that could transition to a kid’s rumpus adjacent to the pool if needed. These public zones all wrap the central landscaped courtyard & external entertaining areas. The first floor was programmed with private zones of 3 additional bedrooms & a retreat, kids spill out zone. A defining element was the arched vertical batten aluminium screen acting as a skirt to the deck areas & extending as a balustrade over that act as a colonnade to thicken the façade & help with cooling interior living spaces. The transparency of the screen allows filtered light & cross ventilation to enter the internal spaces. The arched openings soften the form of the building & allow a visual to the landscaped courtyard from within. Built by Paul & the team at PJH Constructions. Photos by Kristian Van Der Beek. KvdB

This harbor-side property is a conceived as a modern, shingle-style lodge. The four-bedroom house comprises two pavilions connected by a bridge that creates an entrance which frames views of Sag Harbor Bay. The interior layout has been carefully zoned to reflect the family's needs. The great room creates the home’s social core combining kitchen, living and dining spaces that give onto the expansive terrace and pool beyond. A more private, wood-paneled rustic den is housed in the adjoining wing beneath the master bedroom suite.

The challenge: take a run-of-the mill colonial-style house and turn it into a vibrant, Cape Cod beach home. The creative and resourceful crew at SV Design rose to the occasion and rethought the box. Given a coveted location and cherished ocean view on a challenging lot, SV’s architects looked for the best bang for the buck to expand where possible and open up the home inside and out. Windows were added to take advantage of views and outdoor spaces—also maximizing water-views were added in key locations. The result: a home that causes the neighbors to stop the new owners and express their appreciation for making such a stunning improvement. A home to accommodate everyone and many years of enjoyment to come.
