Giles Pike Architects Remodel a Home in London, England

The difference between this house and the neighbouring homes is apparent right from the sidewalk as you mosey down the street past the buildings. Cascade windows are swapped out for gorgeously clear picture windows that stand forward from the front of the house like miniature sun rooms, making them the perfect spot to place a cozy reading chair.

Inside, exposed brick walls and chic, industrial-style winding staircases hearken back to an older era of London, without looking outdated thanks to the way more contemporary furniture and decor schemes, like chrome and glass tables and low, modern couches, strike a balance.

Hekerua Bay Residence

This one of a kind home was conceptualized, designed, and created by Archimedia in 2014. Even before you enter the house, it’s easy to see from the outside that its very essence was created around the concept of enjoying the luscious New Zealand countryside from the top of that stunning cliff side.

Besides perhaps the unique shape of the buildings and each floor, the first thing you’ll undoubtedly notice about Hekerua Bay Residence is the windows! How could you not? Crystal clear glass makes up nearly every wall on the side facing out to the cliff and off into the natural land. The spacious floors of the home, however, aren’t the only place on the property that you can get a great view from. The back patio, which also faces towards the cliff side, features a stunning lounge space next to an impressive blue pool, just in case you’d rather enjoy the view of nature while also relaxing in it.
