Home Design Minimalist

Separate from its main house, this modern guest house really interesting. Combination of minimalist exterior and luxury semi classic interior make the guest get the calm and relaxing atmosphere. With half glass walls, interior get natural light. Build in several spatial boxes that connected in smart ways, give this house attractive spaces.

Program elements are placed along an axis that emanates from the existing main house. This axial line extends out to a stone ridge in neighboring wetlands, anchoring both house in the landscape. The guest house straddles this axis and becomes another incident along this narrative line, emphasizing the contextual qualities of the building rather than monumentality.

Four guest suites sit along one side of the axis and communal spaces on the other. Each guest suites is a unique self-contained unit, but all suites draw from the same basic palette of stained wood and native stone. The living, dining and entertainment areas provide larger informal gathering spaces. Living and dining areas have large expanses of glass which give unobstructed views out to the landscape. Both of these rooms are capped by a shaped roof canopy, as if a giant maple leaf had floated down to rest on and enclose the space. Designed by Rios Clementi Hale Studios.
