Barcelona House Oozes Color

Posted: 26 Aug 2011 09:08 AM PDT

If you’ve been to Barcelona, you’ve definitely experienced the vibrancy, magnitude, and quirkiness of its architecture. After all, Gaudi’s distinctive and beautiful architectural works are hard to miss, and so is this Barcelona home featured on Mi Casa Revista. We see the vibrant colors and the funkiness that define the Catalan region and are enamored with the playful, almost child-like decor. The interiors of this home are simple and wonderfully chaotic all at the same time.

The swirling design in the rug is reminiscent of Gaudi's swirling mosaics in Park Guell. The decor is colorful, vibrant, yet modern. The bookshelves under the stairs are a wonderful and fun space-saver. The swirling bookshelf and Pinocchio toy give the living room a playful vibe, while the french windows and flower arrangements make it refined and pretty. There is a meshing of colors and of styles (antique and modern) all in this one room. The bookshelves/stairs lead to an upstairs loft area and a beaded curtain separates the bathroom from the lviing area. The bar stools mismatch in color while the breakfast nook holds its own with green and white mod decor. The ceiling is almost the antithesis to the rest of the apartment with its ornate, gilded old-fashioned design, but it makes for a unique balance with the simplicity and bright colors of the rooms. barcelona house kitchen Purses hang from what seem to be dripping parts of the wood panel installed into the wall, another Gaudi-like feature. The bathroom, located just behind the stairs, is a simple white tiled area decorated with rich, chocolate brown towels. barcelona house bedroom doorway The bedroom is simply artsy with pieces that evoke New York City and graphic art that makes it edgy.

Shelving Units

Posted: 25 Aug 2011 08:03 AM PDT

More inspiration from Alf da Fre. Previously, we showcased their solutions for rooms with TV as focus, but this set lays emphasis on shelving.

We like how this collection is a mix and match of sort. Some are wall-attached, some have easy access from 2 sides, some are partially concealed by sliding doors and all come in a plethora of shades. Looks like they have done a good job in making a rather dull, furniture unit into an interesting, colorful piece that brings out your living space. The one caveat is that you will need quite a large room to pull this off.

Cars Parked Inside Homes: Pretty or Pretty Weird?

Posted: 24 Aug 2011 09:10 AM PDT

Okay, here is something quirky – cars parked inside homes. And no, we don’t mean the garage. To some it may seem ridiculous or even a bit snobbish. To others who cannot bare to have their beautiful ride out of their sight, their cars serve as the best accessory, adding to the decor of the house either by serving up a punch of color, elevating the level of modernity and luxury, or enhancing the specific style of the very surrounding rooms.


Jon Ryder, a gentleman from Sheffield, is very proud of his yellow Ferrari Spider. So proud, in fact, he decided to convert the garage he kept it in, into a comfortable living room, complete with a television set, furniture, and tiled floors.

It is not just Ferrari owners. We featured the Takuya Tsuchida modern, Tokyo home on Home-Designing last year, but thought it fit to revisit for this post because of its state of the art garage, complete with an elevator that allows the tenant to showcase his car collection in his own living room…

and retract it back into the basement once he gets tired of looking at their glistening bumpers.

Who can forget Holger Schubert’s award-winning 1,200 square foot garage?

Using polished, concrete, glass, and hologan lighting, Schubert created a minimalistic garage which cast spotlight on what should be the center of the garage — the car, and which also won him Maserati and Architectural Digest’s Design Driven contest for best garage for 2011.

Check out the video walkthrough.

Schubert’s garage was featured again on LA times later. (You can view the full slideshow here.)


This silver BMW is as sleek as the stylish bachelor pad it is parked in. (Design by Addoy) The only features that define the garage space from the mostly open layout, are the wooden bars that serve as a partial “gate” and the long bench separating the car from the living area.

The step house we featured yesterday has one inside as well.

Same floor car parking is often a feature in luxury apartments.

Sometimes people may not just want to ‘park’ cars inside homes. For a more decorous use, they might choose to hang it up as a showpiece. Just like what Mr. Gil Dezer did with his 1950 Porsche Spyder 550.

That’s right, Mr. Dezer decided against actually driving his lovely porsche about town, and instead went through the trouble of employing a team of technicians to attach the car on a wall, above one of the doors in his luxury condo. As he has about another 7 Porsches, it seems he doesn’t mind having this one just for show, especially when he can control its headlights and horn from a touchscreen system next to the door.

And sometimes just half a car would do fine as well.

While not quite as ostentatious as Dezer’s design idea, the quaint and quirky feel of this kitchen is emphasized by the small, bright yellow Mini-coop, spliced in half, and installed above the kitchen counter.

So what do you guys think? Pretty or pretty weird?

Step House: Fabulous Minimalism

Posted: 23 Aug 2011 08:49 AM PDT

How do you design a spacious house on a narrow plot of land? You take a cue from 05 AM Arquitectura and build a step house! The Catalonian architects worked wonders with this split-level, minimalistic home that employs a terraced design in its interiors and exteriors.
Located in a small Spanish village in Girona, the openings of the house face the north and south -- with the north facing the old village with its cobble-stone streets, and the south facing the pool, garden, and landscape. The stepped floors and Chartreuse yellow shelving allows long views and natural light, but also defines the different spaces of the room. step apt with lime and white full view step apt lime and white office The house is designed to align with the north or the south elements. The house can be accessed by two entrances -- the first floor, ground entrance and the lower, ground garden level which is also the car port. The "garage" is a transitional space that blurs the outdoor-indoor divide. step apt steps step apt indoor outdoor divide step apt terrace Between the basement and the main level, the architects have included the intermediate level or floor, which is reserved for leisure and study areas. The depressed zone in the center of the house allows it to have a better relation with the landscape, and the fragmented roof allows natural light to pass through. The kitchen, living room, and terrace are all located on the main floor. step apt dining room and kitchen
