Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio

<img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio -2" width="500" /><br/><p>A second floor apartment in an older developing in Montreal, Canada has been transformed into a modern dream duplex by MU Architecture Studio. The architects dreamed up the thought of ‘going up’ for the Mentana Residence to create a spacious 3 bedroom apartment with an in depth rooftop terrace.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="700" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio-.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio" width="466" /><br/><p>The original red brick facade still exists, though the addition now gives an eye-catching juxtaposition of a timber box atop the building. Windows are screened with wooden louvres, contributing another layer of architectural splendor. The huge terrace is trimmed with flowering planters and greenery which is a fresh addition to the urban landscape.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio_.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio -4" width="500" /><br/><p>Internally, the new duplex receives a focal point of a gorgeous glass and wood staircase. The light oak steps are flanked by a transparent rail which attributes steel rivets. So amazing is how each and every other riser boasts a constructed-in spotlight, making a functional masterpiece.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="700" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio__.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio-7" width="466" /><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="399" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio___.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio -3" width="500" /><br/><p>Divided into two floors, the 1st level is where the major living area can be discovered such as the kitchen and dining space, as well as a guest room. A shared space, residents can move about freely inside the open plan. The living area is rooted with a striking steel fireplace fitted with wood storage at the bottom and a modern ebony deer head on prime. Such a fresh take on a traditional wood-burning fireplace!</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio____.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio-8" width="500" /><br/><p>Polished concrete floors in deep charcoal showcase the pure white walls beautifully. The clean-lined kitchen is clad with high-gloss cabinetry, a gleaming marble-enveloped island and lustrous tiled backsplash. A trio of contemporary black and chrome stools add a striking sophistication to the white-drenched space.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio_____.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio-9" width="500" /><br/><p>The master suite and more casual family room reside on the second level, as does the expansive rooftop terrace. The recreational lounge is set with comfy, cozy sofas with patterned throw pillows. Lighting pendants of a variety of shapes preside more than this relaxed living region. Retractable glass doors open to the wonderful rooftop.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio______.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio-11" width="500" /><br/><p>Actually an addition to the property, this open-air terrace is an enviable outside living zone with sleek, constructed-in modular sofas on platforms, a quaint teak dining set and (drumroll, please) a massive corner hot tub. The deck also has a separate entrance which directly–and conveniently–accesses the cabana bath with glazed walk-in shower.</p><br/><img alt="mentana residence montreal canada mu architecture studio Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="625" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/mentana-residence-montreal-canada-mu-architecture-studio_______.jpg" title="Mentana-Residence-Montreal-Canada-MU -Architecture Studio-14" width="500" /><br/><p>The Mentana Residence is a prime instance of how one further story separates an ordinary apartment from an extraordinary a single.</p><br/><img alt="picture 9711 Mentana Residence – Montreal, Canada By MU Architecture Studio dream home building " height="118" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/picture-9711.jpg" title="shop3" width="485" /><br/><p><!-- Social Buttons Generated by Digg Digg plugin v5.3.6,<br/> Author : Buffer, Inc<br/> Website : http://bufferapp.com/diggdigg --><br/>

Baleia Condo – São Sebastião, Brazil By Studio Arthur Casas

This modern dream home project is profound with its relationship to the beautiful natural landscape which envelops it.</p><br/><img alt="modern dream home baleia condo s sebasti brazil studio arthur casas Baleia Condo – São Sebastião, Brazil By Studio Arthur Casas dream home building " height="333" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/modern-dream-home-baleia-condo-s-sebasti-brazil-studio-arthur-casas-.jpg" title="modern-dream- home-Baleia Condo - São Sebastião- Brazil-Studio Arthur Casas" width="500" /><br/><p>Most special is the structure’s diagonal presence providing great perspectives of the beach and beyond. The residence is actually one of 4 condominiums on the lot, so meticulous consideration was given to its floor plan to ensure plentiful light, ventilation and privacy from nearby neighbors. With such masterful design and style in location, this condo feels far more like a single-loved ones beach residence.</p><br/><img alt="modern dream home baleia condo s sebasti brazil studio arthur casas Baleia Condo – São Sebastião, Brazil By Studio Arthur Casas dream home building " height="332" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/modern-dream-home-baleia-condo-s-sebasti-brazil-studio-arthur-casas_.jpg" title="modern-dream- home-Baleia Condo - São Sebastião- Brazil-Studio Arthur Casas-2" width="500" /><br/><p>A wealthy brown facade of refined bricks and timber fades into the lush environ. Large reduce-outs across the a variety of volumes supply gorgeous vistas of the sea and far away islands from the major living and entertaining spaces. Complete-volume glass doors disappear into walls, supplying a seamless, breezy interaction with outside and indoor places. A glazed void in between the dining and living rooms also characteristics these fully retractable glass doors, delivering consistent ventilation which is key in this climate.
