A modern private residence stands out among neighbors with enticing design lines that hint towards an upgraded comfort and relaxation level. Occupying an urban plot in Winchester, England, this new family home showcases its part dark grey brick, part cedar-cladded skin with refreshing nonchalance, hiding an inspiring inner world behind its carefully manicured facade.

Topped off with a flat overhanging roof, the home imagined by AR Design Studio is flooded with natural light through grey aluminium framed windows. The clients were looking for a fresh start and the design studio managed to create a bright, cheery place where family life can find a new meaning:”They wanted a life experience to immerse themselves in, having recently lost a daughter; a project that would give them a positive focus and a fresh start for them and their family.”

Arranged around a central garden, the floor-plan includes results of extensive research “on the connection between good architecture and its positive effects on restoring health”. Photographed by Martin Gardner, this contemporary home in England overlooks the city through an array of carefully-placed windows that unify the whole concept.

“The conceptual drive behind his house was the principle of the 3 N's: Nature, Natural light and Natural air. The form of the replacement house is defined by four interlocking boxes, the enclosed space at their centre forms a 'Zen' garden, with a single olive tree at its heart. This simple layout became the foundation on which the principles of the 3N's could be built, allowing them to be incorporated into all aspects of the design.” Reflection and contemplative moments that ease the pain and offer a brighter vision of the future through a seamless connection to nature. Architects say that “the long views inspiring the couple to look forward to the future, the courtyard giving space for inward private and reflective times. Subsequently, the house has become known as 4 Views.”

Working in a modern office should induce an understanding of the brand through the surrounding design. Clients who step inside the offices should be able to describe what you do and how you do it just by absorbing the colors, shapes and work atmosphere. Tough Mudder's Headquarters design is an exemplary piece of work by M Moser Associates, who specialize in offering companies integrated workplace solutions. Designed as an open, flexible cluster of spaces for a rapidly growing company, the office headquarters compose a dynamic landscape of collaborative interaction.

Located in Brooklyn, New York, the new Tough Mudder Headquarters welcomes staff with a main floor reception area, a cafe-lounge with a “podium” for announcements, working offices, meeting areas and interactive spaces. Everything here seems casual, raw, professional and friendly at the same time. From the wall coverings that mimic corten steel to the re-purposed wood and cement cinder block meeting table , tattooed with Tough Mudder's logo and autographs of people who participated in meetings. Photographed by Eric Laignel, the spaces shine under carefully used lighting systems and “obstacle course” elements infuse the design with a deeper understanding of the brand’s nature. M Moser's design solution offers a modern aesthetic with industrial appeal within a budget.

How would you imagine your life if you worked here?
