Text description provided by the architects. Nestled in amongst a street lined with well-preserved red brick Federation-era houses, Gable Clerestory House presents a quiet and homogenous frontage to the street. Beyond the façade lies a mid-century-inspired family home with dynamic ceiling heights, delightful sky views, and an earthy palette.
The arrangement is so efficient and very pleasing to the eye.
Dream – The trend of tiny houses with aesthetic arrangements is currently in great demand. Each corner is decorated with detail, including lighting, so it’s very pleasing to the eye and makes you feel at home.
Are you looking to organize a room or maybe you want to make a tiny house but maximally comfortable? Friends of Dream can see the design of the TT House in Binh Tan district, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
This house is 3.5 meters wide by 12 meters long with a very modern design. The façade uses natural stone materials, with wooden doors combined with glass and iron.
Also made a permanent pot that extends on the side. You can put plants that make the atmosphere of the house more beautiful. Likewise at the top, there is a corner for placing
“Money talks, wealth whispers.” That aphorism could now be considered the manifesto of the quiet luxury aesthetic. Whether it started to build after we all binge-watched succession or grew from the runway shows of Loro Piana, Bottega Veneta, and Gabriela Hearst, the buzz around quiet luxury is getting louder and louder. While the concept of quiet luxury can’t be categorized as a new design trend (the desire to celebrate the finer things in life, with no logos in sight, has been around for ages), it’s all anyone can talk about. But what does it mean for the home? And more importantly, how can it be achieved (trust fund or not)?
Shea McGee of Studio McGee explains, “Quiet luxury is about subtleties and elevated materials, letting the quality be the defining element of the room versus a particular style or aesthetic.”
As the founders of Haver & Skolnick Architects, an upscale firm based in Roxbury, Conn., Charles M. Haver and Stewart R. Skolnick spent most of their days designing expansive country estates. But when it came time to design their own getaway, they wanted the exact opposite.
“We wanted something very small, with privacy and an ocean view,” said Mr. Oats, 64.
Specifically, they wanted a home that was just big enough for the two of them and their German shorthaired pointer, Keeper, after discovering that in the 1790s maintaining a house in Connecticut was a full-time job.
“In Roxbury, we have about 3,500 square feet in our home, and our offices are in an antique barn that’s an additional 3,500 square feet,” said Mr. Skolnick, 68. “So you have two guys rambling around in 7,000 square feet.”

Texas is famous for its unparalleled barbecue, its gargantuan size, and—arguably our favorite reason—the collection of castle-like homes scattered across its hills, mountains, and plains. One such property, a seven-bedroom lakehouse in Chandler, belongs to lifestyle influencer Lauren Kay Sims, who is known for her fashion and style blogging, and her musings on building what she calls “a radiant life.”
As part of her pursuit of radiance, she enlisted Urbanology Designs’ principal designer and owner, Ginger Curtis, to help ensure their new vacation house would reflect her family’s style, without doing an entire remodel. She asked Curtis to outfit several of the key spaces in her new “kingdom”: namely the sprawling living room, primary bedroom, and a hybrid home office and lounge.
“Lauren and her husband purchased a grand, traditional style vacation home and wanted to put their stamp on it,” Curtis explains. Luckily for the Dallas-based designer, Sims knew
