			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong></strong>The Oz Residence project is a contemporary family residence situated in Silicon Valley, California, USA, which was completed by California-based architects <a href="http://www.swattmiers.com/">Swatt Mires</a>. The modern Californian home features the easy-going nature of California, with open planning, rich natural materials used in the building. It also has a strong visual correlation to the beautiful gardens designed by landscape architect Ron Herman.</p>

<p>The concept desired by the clients was to have a home like a vacation spot where the family can move around casually, and chill out. The large house is built on a site of 2.8 acres which is accompanied by gentle slopes to the south and mature landscaping on all sides. The plan of the home is arranged in an ‘L-shape’ with 2 wings joined at a two-storey big room. This fantastic L-shaped volume, which is sheathed in mahogany boards and fully glossy on two sides, connects as well as separates the family living area and the sleeping wings on either side. Overall, the Oz residence does exude a magical appeal. [Found on <a href="http://www.adelto.co.uk/contemporary-silicon-valley-home-usa/">Adelto</a>]</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A glorious residential architecture includes a customized living space that shelters and encourages the inhabitant&#8217;s lifestyle. Casa Cardenas is the perfect example of this customization. Featuring two stories of modern living spaces, the modern residential unit was designed by Mexico City-based design studio <a href="http://www.parquehumano.com/" target="_blank">Parque Humano</a>. Completed last year, Casa Cardenas is located in Valle de Bravo, Mexico and takes advantage of all the natural glory it surrounds itself with.</p>
<p>Overlooking the Sierra Gordo Natural Reserve, the fascinating villa is not only minimalist in design, but also boasts a relaxing atmosphere. Open spaces and a continuous connection to the outdoors allows the house to incorporate the surrounding nature and welcome it inside through expansive use of glass. By living in close connection to the nature, inhabitants can enjoy more of the natural world and get inspired by natural elements. The house acts as both a shelter and a private space where stress is not invited &#8211; the definition of a dream home.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This beach house is not an ordinary residential building but a dream for those who live there. This 2,470 square foot villa with semi transparent glass walls is located on a promontory, which will give you a fantastic feeling. This ocean front house named the Laguna Beach Residence  includes a kitchen with imported stone flooring.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22830" title="Laguna Beach Residence 1" src="http://cdn.decoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Laguna-Beach-Residence-1.jpg" alt="Laguna Beach Residence 1 Laguna Beach Residence Sports Semi Transparent Glass Walls" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>The half-floor building stands on a sloped landscape with semi-transparent glass walls. This gives a large and bright space impression to the beach house. The master suite opens to a private terrace and a zig-zag terrace will give you a fun twist from the top. In this glass oasis, you can enjoy a fantastic phenomenal look of sunset and other exceptional views of the island.  This inspirational beach house will be yours for $5,995,000, if your budget permits.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Harborview Hills &#8211; a name so imposing and a residence so splendid! This exquisite modern villa named the Harborview Hills residence and located in Corona Del Mar, California, surely is the one place on earth that its owners would never forget or leave. Displaying a very private, almost secluded architecture, the contemporary property was designed by Californian studio <a href="http://www.lsarchitects.com/" target="_blank">Laidlaw Schultz Architects</a>.</p>
<p>The solid walnut wall displayed in the front of the property cleverly hides all the fantastic features of this magnificent dream house. Indiscreet eyes will not be able to tell that this home gathers stunning coastal views on the other side and shares them with dwellers and their guests. Poolside terraces and bright interior spaces are separated by only a thin sheet of glass and sunlight is invited inside to bring out the best in the space arrangement. An  internal courtyard and extensive use of glass force the indoors and outdoors to merge in a successful attempt to keep a balance in the inhabitant&#8217;s life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modern tree house construction in the United States has reached new heights by this project from builder and woodworker Michael Garnier. Garnier, who already owns a tree house resort with 9 raised dwellings in rural Oregon, decided to do his build his home nestled among the branches.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22788" title="Largest Tree House in the World 1" src="http://cdn.decoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Largest-Tree-House-in-the-World-1.jpg" alt="Largest Tree House in the World 1 Largest Tree House in the World is a Perfect Summer Retreat" width="600" height="362" /></p>
<p>The tree house is the perfect destination for a summer retreat along with the woods and in harmony with the nature. Garnier’s B&amp;B cabins have an area of around 100 square feet; his “tree home”, as he likes to call it, has gone big and enormous with 1,800 square feet of living area on a tree house, which is the largest of its kind in the world. Now that’s one hell of a size for a tree house. (Found on <a href="http://www.homedsgn.com/2012/01/31/largest-treehouse-in-the-world-by-michael-garnier-video/">Homedsgn</a>)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Designed by Andres Remy Arquitectos, the spectacular Carrara House situated in Pilar, Argentina, is a contemporary two-story home comprising big, huge glass windows that fill the interiors with bright, natural light, and gives a view of the outdoor surroundings from the inside. Towards the entrance steps, the seating area also looks out through a low window, which resembles a fireplace.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22667" title="Carrara House 1" src="http://cdn.decoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Carrara-House-1.jpg" alt="Carrara House 1 Carrara House in Pilar Excites to the Core" width="600" height="366" /></p>
<p>The architect has included a decorative indoor pool as part of the relation between indoors and outdoors, and which looks out an adjacent pool out on the patio. An interior waterfall against a transparent pane of glass gushes all the way from the upper floor, and the ceiling is cut away to reveal the upper living space. A lot of greenery and various color tones define the interiors of rooms. The house has three dining areas, one of which is housed in the living space, that lets the owners dine with the garden and pool views, while a lounge area with modern chairs provides a space for a retreat. The house has a row of plants that breathe greenery to the room; the monochrome contemporary bedroom is lifted with a splash of red, and the kitchen seems quite sophisticated with a stripe of green.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This modern design renovation was done by <a href="http://www.rajivsaini.com/">Rajiv Saini</a> in order to transform the upper level of a family home, which was being made as the living space for the tenant’s newlywed son and his bride. The project is designed as a private space for a young couple, equipped with all facilities wrapped up with attractive interior designing.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-22641" title="New Delhi Interior by Rajiv Saini 1" src="http://cdn.decoist.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/New-Delhi-Interior-by-Rajiv-Saini-1.jpg" alt="New Delhi Interior by Rajiv Saini 1 Imposing New Delhi Interior Exudes Sophistication" width="600" height="405" /></p>
<p>The interior of the New Delhi Building exudes sophistication with its extensive use of various luxury materials such as brown, beige and onyx marble, lots of rich teak wood, and the like. By the special request of the clients, a large bed-like ‘gadda’ has been decked out in an attractive gray and green colour blend. Among other fascinating furnishings is the guest bed surrounded by an upholstered platform, the elegant arrangement of pendant lights in the living room and huge separation screen that are cut from solid black granite. To make it precise, the New Delhi Interior is efficient, simple, and very charming. (Found on<a href="http://www.contemporist.com/2011/11/08/new-delhi-interior-by-rajiv-saini/"> Contemporist</a>)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Exceptional dream houses built in splendid locations make your life feel like living in a fairytale. This is the case with the gorgeous House in The Pyrenees designed by Spanish architects <a href="http://www.ca-so.com/" target="_blank">Cadaval &amp; Solà-Morale</a>. This residential project in Canejan, Catalonia, Spain, challenged the architects to construct a new and modern residence on the remains of an old dry stone vernacular house.</p>
<p>Overlooking two different valleys from its top of the mountain location, the House in The Pyrenees features an interesting series of interior horizontal partitions supported by two vertical containers. These features allows further development of the internal structure, giving the  owners the possibility of transforming the residential structure into two independent homes. Finished off with two intersecting roof planes, the residence gathers extended views of the surroundings.</p>
