L’achat de cet appartement a été conditionné par l’aménagement du balcon. En effet, situé au cœur d’un nouveau quartier actif, le vis à vis était le principal défaut. OBJECTIFS : Limiter le vis à vis Apporter de la végétation Avoir un espace détente et un espace repas Créer des rangements pour le petit outillage de jardin et les appareils électriques type plancha et friteuse Sécuriser les aménagements pour le chat (qu’il ne puisse pas sauter sur les rebords du garde corps). Pour cela, des aménagements en bois sur mesure ont été imaginés, le tout en DIY. Sur un côté, une jardinière a été créée pour y intégrer des bambous. Sur la longueur, un banc 3 en 1 (banc/jardinière/rangements) a été réalisé. Son dossier a été conçu comme une jardinière dans laquelle des treillis ont été insérés afin d’y intégrer des plantes grimpantes qui limitent le vis à vis de manière naturelle. Une table pliante est rangée sur un des côtés afin de pouvoir l’utiliser pour les repas en extérieur. Sur l’autre côté, un meuble en bois a été créé. Il sert de « coffrage » à un meuble d’extérieur de rangement étanche (le balcon n’étant pas couvert) et acheté dans le commerce pour l’intégrer parfaitement dans le décor. De l’éclairage d’appoint a aussi été intégré dans le bois des jardinières de bambous et du meuble de rangement en supplément de l’éclairage général (insuffisant) prévu à la construction de la résidence. Enfin, un gazon synthétique vient apporter la touche finale de verdure. Ainsi, ce balcon est devenu un cocon végétalisé urbain où il est bon de se détendre et de profiter des beaux jours !

Our long-time clients wanted a bit of outdoor entertainment space at their Boston penthouse, and while there were some challenges due to location and footprint, we agreed to help. The views are amazing as this space overlooks the harbor and Boston’s bustling Seaport below. With Logan Airport just on the other side of the Boston Harbor, the arriving jets are a mesmerizing site as their lights line up in preparation to land. The entire space we had to work with is less than 10 feet wide and 45 feet long (think bowling-alley-lane dimensions), so we worked extremely hard to get as much programmable space as possible without forcing any of the areas. The gathering spots are delineated by granite and IPE wood floor tiles supported on a custom pedestal system designed to protect the rubber roof below. The gas grill and wine fridge are installed within a custom-built IPE cabinet topped by jet-mist granite countertops. This countertop extends to a slightly-raised bar area for the ultimate view beyond and terminates as a waterfall of granite meets the same jet-mist floor tiles… custom-cut and honed to match, of course. Moving along the length of the space, the floor transitions from granite to wood, and is framed by sculptural containers and plants. Low-voltage lighting warms the space and creates a striking display that harmonizes with the city lights below. Once again, the floor transitions, this time back to granite in the seating area consisting of two counter-height chairs. "This purposeful back-and-forth of the floor really helps define the space and our furniture choices create these niches that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional.” - Russell The terrace concludes with a large trough planter filled with ornamental grasses in the summer months and a seasonal holiday arrangements throughout the winter. An ‘L’-shaped couch offers a spot for multiple guests to relax and take in the sounds of a custom sound system — all hidden and out of sight — which adds to the magical feel of this ultimate night spot.

Fu-Tung Cheng, CHENG Design • Exterior Shot of Front Side and Balcony of Tiburon House Tiburon House is Cheng Design's eighth custom home project. The topography of the site for Bluff House was a rift cut into the hillside, which inspired the design concept of an ascent up a narrow canyon path. Two main wings comprise a “T” floor plan; the first includes a two-story family living wing with office, children’s rooms and baths, and Master bedroom suite. The second wing features the living room, media room, kitchen and dining space that open to a rewarding 180-degree panorama of the San Francisco Bay, the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, and Belvedere Island.

Accoya was used for all the superior decking and facades throughout the ‘Jungle House’ on Guarujá Beach. Accoya wood was also used for some of the interior paneling and room furniture as well as for unique MUXARABI joineries. This is a special type of joinery used by architects to enhance the aestetic design of a project as the joinery acts as a light filter providing varying projections of light throughout the day. The architect chose not to apply any colour, leaving Accoya in its natural grey state therefore complimenting the beautiful surroundings of the project. Accoya was also chosen due to its incredible durability to withstand Brazil’s intense heat and humidity.
