Floor Plan of Stratford Sanctuary by Modus Development

A firepit and cowboy pool are ready for outdoor hangs, with a pink striped beach umbrella from Business & Pleasure.

The Modus team gave it more of a studio feel, with bigger living areas connected to the backyard, and a bedroom and bathroom. The blue velvet sofa is a Francesca Grace custom design, placed with a Rishi Black Rope Round Table from TOV and chairs from Poly and Bark.

The Modus team vaulted the ceilings and added skylights, as well as glass doors across the back wall. Custom white oak paneling covers the wall up to the ceiling, as well as the island. “It’s one of the first things that you see when you walk into the house,” says Grace of the island. “It brings the right amount of drama.”

The terrazzo continues in the shower, with honed Carrera up to dado height, and above it, 2x8 Daltile Matte Arctic tile.

The shower went from claustrophobic to open and airy, thanks to a new glass enclosure.

The 400-square-foot guesthouse and studio that architect and designer Emma Pereira designed for the backyard of her Miami home is outfitted with a muted palette and organic textures.

The Park Model, designed by Mint Tiny House Company, measures 535 square feet and features an open plan, where sunlight bounces off of bright white tongue-and-groove pine walls.

White-painted storage cabinets are built-in to the wall beneath the staircase.

The staircase that accesses the second level features a slim silhouette that preserves ground space for the open-plan first level, where the kitchen, dining, and living areas are located.

Nestron’s Cube Two X is as spacious and it is space-age.

In the bathroom, hexagonal mosaic tile covers the floor and the shower walls. The vanity is made from a maple slab, and the sink and the fixtures are copper.

The bathroom walls are clad in whitewashed cedar.

The wall of backsplash tile behind the sinks emphasizes the ceiling height.

Simple solutions to problems that have perennially plagued cooks, these accessories will have you wondering why it took so long for someone to come up with the idea.

The boys’ bathroom takes on a “cartoonish” appearance with blue molded fiberglass, a design choice that the clients asked for after seeing Austin Maynard Architects’ work on a bright yellow molded fiberglass bath in a previous project.
