Architect: Augustus Mino + Robert Fitzpatrick, Location: Chappaqua, New York

This bathroom, tiled in bright blue mosaic to offset the home’s limited materials and color palette, calls for a simple vanity. The sinks, toilets, and tubs are by Villeroy & Boch, while the faucets and towel rails are by Grohe and Avenir, respectively.

The exterior of this 1878 Victorian offers little insight into its new, expansive, light-filled interior. The house even keeps its solar-powered personality under wraps, with its panels tucked neatly (and unnoticeably) behind its low-pitched roof.

In Salt Lake City, a place not renowned for progressive architecture, Brent Jespersen built a luminous canyon retreat—using his architect father and a famed Utah modernist as his guides.

Certain religious artifacts were relocated in order to achieve a clearer visual field inside the church.

Linus, Archie, and Olive relax on the home’s cedar-lined front deck that opens off the main living area.

The deck commands panoramic views of the city and the ocean in the distance. The lounge chairs are from IKEA.

The triangular window from the bedroom looks out towards the street. The window includes a custom blind for shading. A zinc awning covers the front door.

Seen from the street, the Nook Residence's white-painted wood exterior vanishes against a snowy backdrop.
