When Melanie and her husband bought this large Connecticut estate with a barn and guest cabin, it would have been easier to tear it all down and build a new home. But the couple decided to take the difficult and painstaking path of renovating the old house because they really wanted to preserve the home’s…
This Connecticut home is a very high-quality and believable imitation of historical architecture. Despite the fact that the house was built just a few years ago, the architects did the almost impossible – they convinced everyone that this was a reconstruction of a real English factory of the 19th century. There are even 2 smokestacks…
This modern country cottage in Sweden was built according to the barn principle – a one-story building with a large open main room and a high gable roof. There are large industrial windows on opposite walls into the living room, and they also open up so that you can walk right through the house. We…
It is interesting, but in the past railway tracks passed through this small brick house – many years ago it was used as a locomotive depot for the local train line (part of it was even preserved on the territory). But since the building had not been used for a long time, they decided to…
Americans are fond of A-shaped houses and usually build them in the middle of the forest, where they can be pleasantly secluded away from everyone.

Ханс и Карен с недавнего времени могут похвастаться наличием двух домов для их семьи: городские апартаменты в Ницце и прекрасный гостевой дом в лесу во французской глубинке. Устав от насыщенной жизни в городе, семья несколько лет назад приобрела старый сарай в часе езды от основного места жительства…
Sorry, this entry is only available in RU. Главной “фишкой” этого замечательного отреставрированного сарая в штате Виргиния являются, безусловно, яркие розово-синие элементы, такие как двери и перила лестницы. В остальном же, в интерьере очень много благородного и красивого дерева, при чем в самых разных применениях и формах. Понравилась также стена, усеянная фотографиями в рамках –…
Sorry, this entry is only available in RU. Западные дизайнеры – народ довольно интересный: их хлебом не корми, дай поэкспериментировать с всевозможными необычными помещениями, которые изначально и близко не предназначались для проживания. Вот и этот замечательный дом в штате Коннектикут когда-то был сараем, но благодаря усилиям и фантазии архитектора Kraig Kalashian это заброшенное здание превратилось в…
