Одноэтажный дом с мансардой, общей площадью 374 м2. Изначально стояла задача построить гостевой дом с большим гаражом, помещением для персонала и гостевыми спальнями на мансарде. При этом необходимо было расположить дом так, чтобы сохранить двухсотлетний дуб, не повредив его при строительстве и сделать его центром всей композиции. Дуб явился вдохновителем, как архитектурного стиля, так и внутренних интерьеров. В процессе стройки задачи изменились. Заказчику понравился его новый дом, что он решил временно его занять, чтобы сделать реконструкцию старого дома на том же участке. На первом этаже дома находятся гараж, котельная, гостевой санузел, прихожая и отдельная жилая зона для персонала. На мансарде располагаются основные хозяйские помещения – три спальни, санузлы, открытая зона гостиной, объединенная с кухней и столовой. Благодаря использованным технологиям, удалось весь проект реализовать меньше чем за год. Дом построен по каркасной технологии на фундаменте УШП, снаружи облицован клинкерной плиткой и натуральным камнем. Для внутренней отделке дома использовалась вагонка штиль, покрашенная в заводских условиях, по предварительно согласованным выкрасам. Плитка и керамогранит на полу всех помещений и стенах санузлов, выбирались из скаладских запасов компаний, что так же способствовало сокращению времени отделки. Внутренний интерьер дома созвучен с его экстерьером. В обстановке и декоре использовано много вещей, которые уже давно принадлежат хозяевам, поэтому интерьер не смотрится ново делом. Только некоторые вещи были сделаны специально для него. Это кухонная мебель, гардеробные, встроенные книжные стеллажи вдоль всех стен гостиной и холла. Проектные работы заняли 4 месяца. Строительные и отделочные работы шли 7 месяцев.

The exterior cedar sheathing and all of the existing windows were removed and replace with a continuous layer of 2" of foam board insulation. New windows were installed, with specific Solar Heat Gain Factors selected for each orientation. Marvin Integrity units were used which are clad with pultruded fiberglass on the exterior and wood on the interior, stained to match the existing interior wood trim. Boral ‘TrueExterior’ jamb extensions and exterior trim, made from waste fly ash from the coal industry, was used to address the thickened exterior sheathing. New cement fiberboard siding was installed on the majority of the facade, with a section of 8” exposure beveled cedar which ‘wraps’ around the two story massing on a portion of the east, all of the north and a portion of the west façades. This cedar siding was projected out 1” beyond the cement fiberboard and was redwood colored to highlight this element. The 8” beveled material was used in respect of the original cedar that was removed, and was aligned with the bottom of the three horizontally oriented original windows at the 2nd floor. These windows looked out of place with their horizontal orientation and the fact that there was a very large blank wall area below them. The top edge of the new cedar siding provides a ‘ledge’ for these windows to sit on. Kipnis Architecture + Planning

Red Split-level House Exterior Ideas and Designs

With so much attention devoted to interior design, the exterior of a home can often get overlooked, but as the first thing that welcomes both us and our guests, it is worth devoting some time tending to the outside of your house. Furthermore, focusing on the kerb appeal of your home can add significant value if and when it comes time to sell up. Georgian, Edwardian and Victorian homes, with their bay windows and elegant plasterwork, often benefit from built in architecture advantages, but even if your house design is unassuming from the outside, small decorative and structural improvements to the exterior of your home can equal huge impact. Key areas of building design to focus on are the front door, the driveway or approach to your home, the porch area, the windows, the facade and the roof. And just a note of caution... before any significant exterior architecture gets under way, check first whether you need planning permission for your exterior house designs– this applies particularly to listed houses or buildings in a conservation area, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Take a look through the house designs, exterior architecture and images of front doors and driveways on Houzz to inspire your facade or building design, or read on for a few more pointers when it comes to redesigning your exterior.

How do I give my home an exterior facelift?

You may feel like your home’s exterior architecture is unalterable but there are a wide range of options available to improve its external building design, no matter what raw materials you begin with. Begin with the front door and the pathway or driveway that lead up to your home as these are easy to improve without huge budgets. A driveway or pathway must be kept neat and tidy and you can consider replacing tarmac with attractive tiles or gravel. Repainting or replacing the fence, wall or gate that fronts your home can also offer an overnight transformation without breaking the bank. An area to not cut corners however is the front door, where spending a little extra can make a huge difference in quality, and painting it in a colour you love will pay you back every time it welcomes you home! Updating your windows can be a significant building design project but it is one that has benefits both inside and out, as well as potentially saving you money on energy later. If you are lucky enough to have period windows such as bay windows with sash or leaded windows, then maintaining them should be a top priority, but if they are beyond repair then there are plenty of window professionals that will offer modern, double or triple glazed equivalents that could still work in your bay window. Working with uPVC? Not a problem – the best improvement you can make is to ensure your windows are the right size and shape for your home's overall proportions.

How do I update my home’s facade?

When it comes to updating the facade of your home, painting is the quickest and most affordable way to achieve a makeover, and if you opt for a colour other than white it can really make a statement (although sticking within the palette of your road and local area is advisable). A makeover that requires a bit more patience but can add romance and character to the most mundane of homes is to adorn the walls with climbing plants – delicate trailing wisteria is ever a British favourite, whilst roses and jasmine offer fragrance as well as beauty. If you’re looking to make more significant changes to the exterior of your home, whether that is adding timber cladding, hanging tiles, installing a bay window or rendering, then you should first check whether your house designs require planning permission. A New England style wood boarded home is beautiful and bright, but remember that it will need frequent repainting if it is going to stay looking its best, whilst stucco render or Tyrolean render can tidy up a home's exterior but think carefully before covering over original brickwork.

What should I consider if building a home from scratch?

If you’re working with an architect on a brand new build, the options are endless when it comes to deciding on the exterior architecture. But first things first, you will need to check planning permissions, building regulations and local restrictions, such as being in a conservation area, to make sure your plans for your exterior house designs will meet stipulations. If you are building in a street with predominantly Victorian facades, with bay windows and side returns, you might need to ensure your house designs fit in with the rest of the homes on the street, but if you’re building in a more remote area you’ll probably have more freedom for your building design. There are many architectural decisions to make, do you want a flat, gabled, hipped, mansard or perhaps even a curved roof? Do you want bay windows? Crittall windows? Perhaps external shutters? Do you want glass walls? Do you want wood cladding? Do you want a very symmetrical building design or something more contemporary? The decision is all yours but remember to consider the benefits of various materials over others and the effects that some architecture styles will have on everyday life, for example glass walls will look attractive but will give you less privacy. Your architect or builder will be able to guide you through the best exterior architecture choices for your house designs.
