This house created by the architect Bruno Erpicum is limited to a single level, it is weightless on the water area that separates it from the entrance avenue. To the left, the entrance shows its gallery wall. Descend a level, the construction frames the view over the fields, the countryside is yours.

To the left, behind you, a series of levels interrupted by stairs that stretch outside bring the profile of the site together. To the right, beyond the overhanging part that covers the dining room, the kitchen benefits from a lateral patio that bathes in the morning sun.

Go down further, the garden continues right up to the old trees in front of a swimming pool that is so long that it takes the liberty to fold back into the building through the fault-line freed up under the built-up framework. It is all arranged for one to feel good: exercise, relaxation, cinema room, enological living room with a direct view over the beautiful cars. Here, the heart is in the bowels of the earth.

Four bedrooms complemented with an office on the mezzanine are arranged at the +1 level, the apartment of the owners is organized higher up on the roof, in a vast room devoid of partitions to make the bedroom into a covered terrace when the weather is good.

Here, the heart is in the stars.

SKYGARDEN

An outdoor landscape 114 feet above the sea with sweeping views of the Atlantic by day and the stars by night

Panoramic ocean views make SkyGarden the ideal place to bask in the glow of a sunrise, whether you’re late getting to bed or early greeting the day. Stop by later to enjoy downtime with a book or conversation with friends. Come back at night when fire pits blaze against the cool ocean breeze.

Reflecting the changing seasons, SkyGarden offers a little serenity any time of year.

VIEW SUITE

A spacious suite with sweeping Atlantic views through floor-to-ceiling windows

The ocean sparkles by day while the city sparkles by night. Vistas of both are a central theme for each View Suite, courtesy of floor-to-ceiling windows. Modern, clean design and neutral tones complement the inspiring scenery and create a sense of balance.

The living area features a dinette for two, an elegant seating area with L-shaped sofa, and a large flat-screen television. The separate master bedroom and bath give you the space you need to truly unwind.

Throughout the suite, sleek, contemporary lamps and fixtures provide a variety of lighting options, and low-profile furnishings make the most of your views. Interior doors of frosted glass and rift-cut red oak are custom stained a rich espresso brown.

Creating an environment to match every mood is easy. Simply use your room’s remote to control temperature and lighting. The in-room tablet device serves as a resort directory and has an attached handset that makes it simple to call for anything you need, from In-Room Dining to dinner or spa reservations.

Your master bath features marble tile and a granite countertop with two sinks. The spacious shower pampers with a multi-speed showerhead, overhead rain shower, and built-in bench. A separate tub for soaking completes the luxury.

Seated in Santa Monica, California’s Pacific Palisades, this house was advantageously planned to meet the restricted policy of the area. It also designed to promote safety and preserve the said landscape. The landscape of the area is one of the most important factors in selecting a house spot. Also it is made to take advantage of its volume considering its environmental effect.

This house is called the Hill House and it has three floors. It is built to create a more spacious and a friendly interior area. The central floor is where you can see the living room, kitchen and the dining room. It has a semi-private loft space above the main floor. The bedrooms are located in the ground floor.

The highlights of this house are sliding glass doors on the main floor and the skylight aperture. It is made of high quality materials such as concrete, steel and timber. Also it is covered with a special material that was colored to match the eucalyptus bark that is found in the place. Now, I am pretty sure that you are so excited to see the pictures that will justify my description of this Hill House. You may now look at the pictures below to fully see its features.

Hill House Sketch Plan

This is the Sketch Plan of the Hill House.

Now we may say that the incredible shape of this house contains a very strong minimalist concept. The design of this house provides an opportunity to see the green view from the different parts of the house. Undeniably we are truly impressed on this Hill House which is made by Johnston Marklee. The designer is very creative and intelligent to come up with this kind of house.

You have witnessed how the designers wittingly planned where to put the different rooms in its respective place. The private areas of this house are the loft which is a studio and a bathroom in the basement. You can also see some California grasses that seem to form a blanket that covers the slope in the entire house. Thus we can say that if and only if we would have house design like this, our everyday life will be more peaceful and calm. Are you inspired to have a house design like this?

Y2DC Refurbishes The Sheraton Heathrow Hotel Public Areas

The Sheraton Heathrow Hotel put the finishing touches to a multimillion-dollar refurbishment of its public areas. The refurbished Sheraton Heathrow now boasts a completely new reception and lobby lounge, two new bars, a new restaurant and a new cafe complete with self-service technology.

Designed by Nico Yiannikkou of interior design company Y2DC, the renovated spaces feature open areas connected through a common theme of travel and exploration.

Inspired by the Middlesex countryside around Heathrow Airport, which is famed for its orchards, all of the new restaurants and bars at the hotel take their name from the traditional English apple.

The main restaurant, The Orchard, now features timber partitions and interconnecting screens in the ceilings. Playing on the location of the hotel, a “globe” chandelier is suspended between the screens, while the feature table at the venue entrance is inspired by aviation design. The restaurant serves traditional English dishes.

With its travel-inspired decor, the hotel’s main bar has been named the Discovery Bar and will focus on beers, wines served by the glass and cocktails. Decoration in the Discovery Bar includes old trunks and suitcases as features, furniture fabrics imprinted with feint vintage postcard texts of by-gone travellers and a wall mural depicting an art deco map of the world. With its focus on local produce, the Discovery Bar menu features local ales from Windsor and Marlow.

The Orange Lounge is the hotel’s brand new cocktail bar. The venue boasts dark colors, a central fireplace, and partitioning using timber screens with the design inspired by the idea of aircrafts taking off and landing. Artwork on the theme of aviation in the form of black and white prints is also available.

The transformed Sheraton Heathrow will also offer the Link Café, which combines the Link@SheratonSM experienced with Microsoft, a communications hub in the lobby which provides complimentary Wi-Fi and PC workstations.

The public area refurbishment at the Sheraton Heathrow is part of the Sheraton brand’s multi-year revitalization effort which has seen Sheraton invest more than $6 billion in opening new hotels and renovating existing Sheraton properties across the globe.

DREAM HOUSES / APRIL 21, 2012

Situated on a natural terrain in Kamala Beach on the western coast of Phuket in Thailand, Villa Amanzi features all the facilities you would see in a contemporary luxury villa.

Meant as a luxury vacation rental spot, in the first place, Villa Amanzi is perfect for a typical family of seven/eight, or for a bunch of friends coming to the country seeking fun. It has six lovely bedrooms with contemporary bathrooms. The forte for this three level edifice is a 15 meter protruded infinity pool. Add to the fact that the Andaman Sea and the beautiful scenery put together an amazing, visually enticing spectacle, and you’ll thank for all those stunning glassy walls that fit so perfectly.

Available for rent throughout the year, if you’re heading for Kamala Beach and you’d like a luxury stay then know that a stay at Villa Amanzi would cost $2,000 to $4,500 per day, depending on the season. Not the cheapest you could find, but so dreamy.

Saint James Paris | Luxury of the Highest Level

The imposing 1892 mansion that is now the Saint James Paris was built by the widow of President Adolphe Thiers near the Bois de Boulogne, on what had been a field used to launch hot-air balloons. site: paris firm: sloan bambi

The imposing 1892 mansion that is now the Saint James Paris was built by the widow of President Adolphe Thiers near the Bois de Boulogne, on what had been a field used to launch hot-air balloons. Originally a residence for scholarship students supported by her Fondation Thiers, the mansion served that purpose for 94 years, after which it became one of the London-based private St. James’s Club’s international outposts, simultaneously operating as a hotel open to the public.

Under new management, the hybrid has been returned to its historical roots-with some delightfully eccentric twists-by Franco-American decorator Bambi Sloan. She took the mansion’s Napoléon III style, which she describes as “a pileup” of elements, as her starting point. Then she piled on her own flourishes, having fun with winks at ballooning, scholarly books, Paris rooftops, British menswear, and more. In the monumental lobby atrium, balus trades and columns painted white with black trim were inspired by Cecil Beaton’s Royal Ascot costumes for the film version of My Fair Lady.

Trompe l’oeil carpet is a constant. On the atrium’s two upper levels, it looks like classic château stone flooring. In some guest rooms and suites, carpet imitates herringbone parquet. In the restaurant, carpet is faux leopard. Each room is unique, furnished with antiques and old portraits, often flea-market finds. One suite, where Harris tweed suiting covers the walls, also features chairs with tweed upholstered armrests and suede elbowp atches. Another suite’s ubiquitous toile de Jouy depicts hot-air balloons. For a circular stairwell off the lobby, Sloan designed wallpape rfestooned with balloons manned by charming monkeys in human attire. In the garden, a multicolored mock-balloon serves as the cocktail bar.
