A Williamsburg loft apartment featured in Dwell.
Ten to One architecture (more and better pictures on their site)

I love the mix of woods used in the palette of this space.  It's very warm.  And I love the use of large bookcases to divide up the space and the cove lighting as opposed to poking a bunch of holes in the ceiling for light fixtures.

Another white walls/wood floors and ceiling sandwich.  I love this look.  It makes a space be bright ad white but still warm.  I love the mix of modern and rustic/new and old in this apartment.

I love the white painted brick walls sandwiched by warmly colored wood ceilings and floors.  Also love the brick painting detail at the window.

This home is amazing.  It's like a hotel.  I would love to spend time here.  I love the stretched shade tarps and how the kitchen dining area is open to the patio/pool area.  What an amazing place to entertain!



I like how these interiors are bright and white, but are still warm.  I think that the warm wood accents and the texture of the white-painted brick and the white-painted exposed ceiling beams contribute to the warmth.

How amazing is that mirrored Treehotel??
I also love the use of one material for walls and ceiling of the Archipelago house.

Attractive sliding/folding panels to divide a space yet allow light to filter through.  Good flexible space dividing solution.

Villa Welpeloo





Located in Enschede, Netherlands.  Featured in Dwell February 2011.
http://www.dwell.com/articles/Harvest-Boon.html
Built largely from locally sourced scrap. 
I like the layout and the overall appearance of a bunch of cubic units coming together to form a house.  I also like the wood used for the exterior and the clever incorporation of balconies, terraces and overhangs.
