Time Capsule

Beautiful Enviroments

This is a shore side home owned by a couple in Wisconsin and is the epitome of a well designed themed home. Life at sea. It is colorful but the color dosen"t over power any aspect of the home. Its got a lot of spunk.

Buildings/Structures

I absolutely love the look of this building its so unique and stands out in its environment , not only in color choice but in shape. This is a very modern home made with green techniques with its use of glass for natural lighting throughout the home. Half of the buildings rooms are under ground so they see very little to no light but in those places are family rooms and guest rooms.The description given by the architect was , the first floor is a glass pavilion that allowed the view to shoot straight through, then floated a jewel box of bedrooms and other private areas over the transparent pavilion in the canopy of leaves. I believe it succeeds in its goal as a gem.

Beautiful Enviroments

This beauty of a home is in Nashville, TN on 400 acres and extends out over a 50 acre private lake. To me it has a Tuscany feel with its terracotta roofing and the light colored stone. It is a very beautiful home. It interior is just a beautiful as the exterior. The couple chose very neutral colors in the home so not to distract you from its natural beauty of the materials used to make the building and the beautiful of the lake that surrounds the home on one side.

Beautiful Enviroments

This is a very unique Seattle home. The interior space of this home is very contemporary with neutral choices with splashes of color in reds and oranges. My favorite aspect of this hill top home is its view of the city below and its wonderful use of natural light with the ceiling to floor windows that can be covered with natural bamboo shades. I really enjoy this space and though i have a severe fear of heights would love to reside there.

Norman Foster+Partners-Architects

Norman Foster is and architect that I found in Architectural digest as a leader in innovative green design . His buildings are uniquely fascinating and create a spectical for the eye. I find his work absolutely stunning.

The tower will provide a location for living, working, and leisure, designed sustainably to minimize site impact and be sensitive to the harsh Siberian climate. Never one to sacrifice aesthetics for function, Foster has cladded the 280-meter tower in faceted glass to maximize daylight through the winter months while reflecting natural light to illuminate the interior spaces.

In terms of green features, the tower centers around a South-facing atrium, which maximizes daylight and solar gain, minimizing the need for artificial lighting and providing insulation during the colder months. The structure will also rest lightly on the land and rely on renewable energy sources.

Space for residential, office, hotel, and retail programs will be integrated, topped off by a dramatic viewing platform and restaurant at the tower’s summit.

This is a rendering of the Norman Foster 118- story Russian tower in Moscow. This will be a mixed use building, a pioneer of green architecture, and is slated for completion in 2012.
