The Lap Pools In Interiors

Not all lap pools are situated outdoors. In fact, indoor lap pools are just as wonderful if the circumstances allow it to be placed inside the house. Large windows let light in, creating a sunny and bright atmosphere

Unusual Outdoor Swimming Pool Designs

As the weather starts to improve through springtime, so the call of the outdoor swimming pool becomes more and more alluring. Both indoor and outdoor pools have, for many years, been little more than rectangular dug outs with some ceramic tiling around the outside. If you are thinking about an external swimming pool to make the perfect addition to your garden, or upgrading the one you already have, then don’t feel restricted by a conventional design.

Gorgeous Concrete Houses With Unexpected Designs

Somehow, the idea of living in a concrete house doesn’t sound that appealing and that’s because of the cold nature of this material. Concrete is not warm or soft or pleasant to the touch like wood is for example and that gives it a bad reputation in a certain sense. But what we don’t take into consideration in those cases is the versatility, durability and in a way also the beauty of concrete. All of these are characteristics which can be exploited in great ways by architects and designers and these dream concrete houses are perfect examples.

Houses With Unexpected Designs

This house from Brissago, Switzerland looks incredibly simple, like a concrete monolith with cut out windows from place to place. It looks as if it’s been on that slope all along and only recently carved into a home. It’s a great look managed by Wespi de Meuron Romeo Architects. Because it sits on a steep slope, the houses has the entrance on the top floor and the parking lot up on the roof level. Its raw concrete facades are minimalist and intriguing and the interior matches this look.

Concrete Lamps And Their Unexpected Warming Effect On Our Homes

We’ve established that wood pendant lamps make spaces feel warm, cozy and inviting so, using that logic, should concrete lamps make a space feel cold and austere? Not at all. Even though concrete is a rough and cool material, it doesn’t really have the expect effect on the interior décor of a room. In fact, it can make a space feel quite homey and enjoyable.

Concrete Lamps In Our Homes

They look like they’re made of paper but they’re actually cast in concrete. These lamps and pendants are designed by Miriam Aust and Sebastian Amelung and they have paper-like creases and folds which give them a really authentic look. They’re really fun and they make great gifts and home accessories.
