Dinner Party

What are you up to this weekend?  Happy Friday.

Skylight House/Chenchow Little

We are in Sydney and we are visiting Skylight House by Chenchow Little.  The project was a remodel and the facade of the home had to remain the same because the house is in a conservation zone.  The interior exhibits materials and colors that are minimalist and pure: raw concrete, glass, white walls and spotted gum hardwood.

SHIFT Cottage/Superkul

Welcome to SHIFT Cottage by Superkul, located on an island in Georgian Bay, Ontario, Canada.  SHIFT Cottage is nestled into the exposed, washed granite of the island and against a line of trees. A glass link bridges between the cottage’s two buildings.  The living spaces are closest to the shore; bedrooms are against the trees.
