Spacious Penthouse Displaying an Elegant Design in Stockholm Posted: 06 Nov 2011 06:24 AM PST Tall ceilings and a clever layout can contribute to the much needed idea of space. Here is a penthouse that displays generous interiors which fit this profile. Located in Stockholm's artsy Birkastan neighborhood, the apartment features tall white walls, enhancing the feeling of an airy home. The living room is the core of the penthouse, with large windows and minimalist arrangements. A large sofa adorns the room, still leaving enough space for armchairs, a piano, a fireplace, a lovely round glass table and a wide screen TV. A semi-oval window draws attention and at the same time lets in plenty of natural light. The two bedrooms are furnished with built-in wardrobes and the slightly larger bedroom has a lovely walk-in closet and an adjacent bathroom. Both bathrooms enjoy exclusive furnishings and are equipped with underfloor heating. Enjoy the contemporary atmosphere of this penthouse found on Skeppsholmen and don’t forget to mention your thoughts below.

Glass Residence With an Intriguing Architecture : Lake Lugano House Posted: 06 Nov 2011 02:08 AM PST Lake Lugano House is a lovely looking villa designed by Italian architecture firm JM Architecture. This residence displays a highly original architecture in the shape of an oval glass pavilion. Even though it is not obvious when looking at the photos, the crib is structured on two levels. The upper floor hosts the living room, dining room, kitchen, and storage areas, while the ground level accommodates the bedrooms, bathrooms, and garage. With unobstructed views of the surrounding mountains and lake, this minimalist home is an oasis of relaxation and tranquility. Moreover, the architects envisioned a sustainable home, as the Lake Lugano residence was built using eco-friendly materials, geothermal energy and low-emittance glass insulation. Are you pleasantly surprised by the overall design of this home, or do you find it too privacy-invading?
