 The Private Residence in South Africa by GASS Architecture

There are many residences, which offer an amazing and magnificent view, because offering beautiful scenery is the important value in the architecture design. The Swellendam House is one of the private residences, which provides magnificent scenery. The contemporary house is located in the valleys of Langeberg Mountains, South Africa. Designed by GASS Architecture , the house design should be not interfering and uniting in it because of the original natural landscape. The private house uses local textures and materials to maintain its distinctly Southern African origins. The form of the modern house is very simple and practical, consisting of three volumes. The public rooms are in the largest volume, while the private rooms are in the smaller volumes.

The Fraser Residence, which is located in Ottawa, Ontario, is designed by Christopher Simmonds Architects . The modern house offers strong linear lines on the exterior as well as the interior by choosing the perfect floor plan and materials. The exterior of the house composes of subtle earth-toned brick, stained cedar siding and dark bronze aluminum glazing systems to form the neutral palette of color. Dark oak floors and cabinetry are contrasted to the white surfaces of the gallery-like interior to add the characteristic of the house. There are juxtaposed volumes in exterior of the contemporary house, while the interior of the house features interweaving special volumes.
