Modern architecture and construction works with a philosophy of maximizing resources and yet adding that minimalist design to capture elegance and understated class. The Millbare contemporary house in North-West England captures the essence of new-age construction with its spacious and well-lit interiors, lavish swimming pool on the outdoors and an atmosphere that speaks with silent eloquence. The master bedroom and the three children’s bedrooms all have a very tranquil feel while the classy look of both the kitchen and the bathroom make them appealing. Also, add to all these that the interiors are further enhanced by equally graceful wallpapers and decorative pieces that bring the best out of the serene interiors, and then tell us if you like it. – via Momoy

Most of us, really appreciate when seeing a new design, but this awesome sculptural home in Somosaguas, Spain, is more than just a modern design and managed to get me drooling. Designed by A-cero Architects on the water’s edge, it’s a stratified building with texturized dark concrete facades, that promotes open space and will sure get you a wow when looking at the pictures. The most amazing things are the rooftop swimming pool that will get all the neighbors to die of envy and the fact that it has some breathtaking lights at night. Now that’s a place I’d love to live for the rest of my life, if I were to choose.

Do you remember the 1964 House For Sale in London that we scooped last week? Today we have another one. It’s much cheaper and I can say has a higher dose of both modernism and minimalist design. Designed and built in 1967 by architect Colin Huntley, this beautiful three-bedroom terrace house has been highlighted in the famous Buildings of England series.
The house has been under intensive remodeling by STUDIO Blueboat who had the mission to make the living-room/dining-room larger and to move the kitchen into a specially designed zinc, steel and oak extension. Featuring a small courtyard garden at the front and a larger enclosed garden at the rear, the house makes it easy for those that want to live “close to nature”.
On the inside, everything looks perfect, lined up, with the right colors and large glasses to allow the sun rays inside. The best of them all, I think it’s the open-up living-room, with the large couch and the white walls. What do you like the most? Oh and I forgot. That house is for sale, for £325,000.

Located in Massachusetts, in Dukes County, Martha’s Vineyard is an island off the US east coast famous for its harsh winters and “tough” local restrictions when it comes to building new home. At least that’s what architect Darren Petrucci had to deal with when he came up with the VH R-10 gHouse design. I thought it’s a plane turned into a house when I first read how they named it, but trust me it’s a vacation guesthouse.
Made for himself and his wife, Darren Petrucci managed to build a compact and spare house with lots of personal touches, using modern materials and furniture. On the first floor there’s a kitchen, a living area, and a master bedroom all featured withing lovely large windows with rain-screen panels (used for privacy). The guy also built a loft/study that is accessible by a ladder from the living room and changes the 600 sq ft living space into a 1,00 sq ft area. – via ArchRecord
