Welcome once again to Facades World Dear readers. Today, we bring you a work of 250 m²designed by the studio Mitsouri Architects, which is located in Armadale, Australia ... We present "Armadale House 2".

This work is a renovation and extension of a house of Victorian style already existing in Armadale, based on a discreet addition and extension for the best use of a compact space.

The house is composed of two floors, which were located in a compact way to maintain the largest possible patio area. Its materiality is centered on the wood, concrete and glazing From floor to ceiling that allow better lighting and spaciousness.

On the front of this work you can see a modern style facade where we will find a wooden deck. This covers half of the land reaching the main entrance that is located in the center, followed to the right by another large glazed entrance that allows direct access to the kitchen.

All the carpentries of the same one are of wood, the most outstanding are the five thin vertical structures of wood, located to the left of the main entrance, that fulfill the function of regulator of the light since they can turn according to the necessity of the inhabitant.

The accesses are varied since in addition to the front, you can also access the backyard, and therefore the interior of the house, through a corridor that is on the left side of the house.

On the ground floor of the Armadale House 2 We found the spacious room, the kitchen with island and the dining room with polished concrete floor, which has direct access to the deck. In the back there are three bedrooms, a private living room and in the center a circulation area that leads to the backyard of the house. The garage of this house is located in the front of the building, but it is separated by a wall so as not to contaminate the visual of the garden that the wide openings allow.

On the day of the date Facades World presents you with brick house designed at the client's request in the city of Bueno Aires, Argentina. As a premise and at the request of the latter, natural conditioning systems were implemented thus ensuring the conditions of habitability and spatial quality required by it.

The only material that we will see in the facade is the brick, nevertheless, this one is complemented in its inner part by metal carpentry and steel profiles. The arrangement of these bricks regulate the entry of solar rays and make up an area of shadows during the summer, thus generating an air effect.

Simple house with one floor and three bedrooms, we show its combination of wood and folding blinds

Next in Facades World We will show you this beautiful model of one-story house (located in the Czech Republic) which has been built on a square land. In it, we will find three bedrooms and a large dining room with stunning views to the outside, views that we can enjoy thanks to the use of wooden folding blinds, which we find in the modern facade of this simple, but unique house.

We can observe how the natural tone wood applied in the facade in the form of slats, completely harmonizes the construction culminating with a flat white roof. In turn, the concrete platform on which the construction itself sits, has the same characteristics as the ceiling in both color and dimension.

Simple and modern facade clad in wood

In the back facade from the house we will find a uniform finish that is made of larch wood slats, then, if we visualize the roof, we will see the use of a PVC sheet for more protection and then a layer of gravel.

In the social area, framed by black aluminum, we will find large crystals. When the blinds are folded, we will have a clean and unimpeded visuals towards the outside, finding ourselves completely with the whole nature of the environment.

In turn, the wooden blinds cover the terrace that is located in front of the room, when they are closed, give the social area a greater amplitude to the naked eye, while during the day filters the solar rays giving greater privacy for its occupants.

In perspective, we can see the large windows of the room

In spite of its functional aspect, the wooden blinds grant a unique originality to the design

Let's look at the larch wood folding blinds

Wooden blinds: if they are closed, they expand the interior space. Open, they give us an impressive visual

Plan of the one-story house, three bedrooms and wooden interiors

Approximately, this modern wooden house, has been built on a square plot of 13.5 x 13.5 meters with visuals to its four sides, so, to implement this design is extremely important and completely necessary to have an outdoor area around it, this way we can take the greatest benefit of the construction, and this will work properly.

The house has a total of four entrances, but we believe at first sight that quietly the most used could be the front and the rear due to the comfort and simplicity. As we mentioned above, we will find three bedrooms inside, in the middle a full bathroom with two entrance doors.

The dining room is facing the terrace, a fully illuminated area thanks to the large openings located in the main facade of the house. To finish, a kitchen with island It is separated from the dining room but located frontally towards the social spaces.

House with one floor, we present a facade that combines wood and brick

Built in an area of 125 square meters, today in Facades World We present this beautiful one-story house. With a combined brick and wood facade, and also a juxtaposed gabled roof, we will observe how this Scandinavian style construction can be quickly converted into a modern style, let's get started ...

Modern facade combining two building finishing materials

This Modern facade It combines exposed brick in a white tone with cedar wood placed in the roof overhang of the terrace, in turn, the pitched roofs provide gait to the volume.

For the exterior finish also rectangular tiles were used, which can be ceramic that would have an effect to the brick applied to the façade of this one-story house.

The social area that includes the kitchen, the dining room and the living room, is an open space in the form of «L» (we can observe it and the plans), in addition to this, the large windows that overlook the interior garden, allow to have the very well ventilated and naturally lit environments.

In order to get the rhythm of the inclined roofs In this one-story house, we can see how the roof has been divided into two parts (refer to the dotted lines in the «tip plane»), resulting in the naked eye as one has been left behind the other, without place to doubts, a unique construction detail.

Floor plans of the one-story house

What corresponds to the yellow zone, belongs to the expansion that has been given to the house built in an area of 125 m², beyond that the access to housing is in the central part (left part of the map), it also has a secondary income located on the side of the house which allows directly entering the part of the social zone.

In total we will find three bedrooms, a study room that could be reformed and thus become an additional room, and a large lounge room that we will find located near the main entrance of the house.

The social area, the enlarged part to be more exact, includes the dining room, the living room and the kitchen in a large space in the form of «L», these environments have direct access to the terrace and the back garden.

Design and decoration of interior environments

Seeing your interior design, we will feel that it looks broad, bright and fresh. We can see from the walls to the ceilings painted in a white tone, assimilating the amplitude already mentioned, amplitude that is not only achieved thanks to the color, but also by the height of the sloping roofs.

The floors of the entire social area are blackbutt wood with glossy finish, a type of floor that comes from Australia belonging to the eucalyptus family. As a slightly more economical alternative when it comes to shaping the interior design, we can choose to use laminate flooring that would give an appearance similar to those we see in the images and it is also ideal for use in home renovations or extensions.
