Torres House: A beautiful mountain retreat by GLR Arquitectos/ Gilberto L. Rodriguez

The pristine beauty of the Sierra Madre Mountains is the home of the Torres House by GLR Arquitectos/ Gilberto L. Rodriguez. The 5,942 sq ft contemporary house doesn’t contrast with the surroundings, not at all – lots of natural materials (marble, wood and volcanic stone) have been used and the garden is in fact a small oak forest. Designed to maximize the “outdoor” feel,  the Torres house provides lavish views of the outside space from almost every corner of the home. And talking about views – the roof terrace has amazing views over Sierra Madre and the city of Monterrey. The entrance door is also worth mentioning – its stunning mural-like design is like a hint for the beauty that lies inside this amazing modern house.

Contemporary House With Old World Aesthetic Look – Lake Minnetonka Residence

This home is a quite new development by a large lake. Located within one of the last undeveloped parcels of land on Lake Minnetonka, Locust Hills, this new home blends an old-world aesthetic with materials and a color pallet derived from the client’s native state of Pennsylvania and incorporates several exterior living spaces to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The client wanted to achieve a sense of permanence and look as if the house had been there for a hundred years and thanks to such chose of materials the architect managed to give a life to this idea. Almost everything inside the house is made of beautiful wood which not only create comfy atmosphere but also connect those who live there to the nature outside. [Charlie & Co. Design]
