Nature's Edge

Designed for clients who wanted a large, sprawling home that didn’t look large and sprawling, our Nature’s Edge home in Hudson, Wisconsin, overlooks The St. Croix River. The entryway is subdued as our clients didn’t want visitors to feel they were coming to a huge estate. JMAD JMAD JMAD The lot itself was challenging, due to height restrictions, a ravine and a bluff. But these are the kinds of creative challenges we love. In the back, it’s not a two-story, it’s two stories further away; that was the only way to get the additional space without seeing the house from the river because there were these certain angles that we had to abide by. It was a big challenge to design views to the river but m... More

SADOVNICHESKAYA 55

The owner of this apartment didn’t want it to have motley interior or excessive furniture. That is how we came up with this minimalistic design for her 55-m2 apartment. We began by getting rid of partitions between the entrance hall and living room. As the result, you can see the majority of the apartment from the doorstep. Our customer wanted some sort of partitioning between the kitchen and living room – and that is how an opening with a built-in storage stand came to be. The owner also dreamed of the entire apartment bathing in the sunlight during the day. So, we suggested an inner window between the bathroom and kitchen and split the former into dry and wet areas. The wet area is cube-shaped, with a full-sized bathtub and... More

It did not help the building is a precast reinforced concrete one; virtually every wall is a load-bearing one; we were able to remove only one partition between the corridor and bedsit. It was replaced with vertical modules full of storage spaces. We also added a walk-in closet by putting up extra walls in the... More
