Living Rm

The home's blue-painted facade pops against the crisp white exterior trim.

In the main bath, a wall of Heath Ceramics tile joins a terrazzo floor from Ann Sacks.

The dining room addition, which increased the total square footage to 2,700, features a Semi pendant by Bonderup & Thorup for Gubi and a table and chairs from Atelier Arking.

Floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the living spaces with natural light.

The dining room table is also from Habitat. The oak veneered plywood is from Peter Benson Plywood.

“Putting one material, the concrete, at the forefront of our design at first felt foreign, but we soon realized that having a clear hierarchy of materials actually clarified the design process and enabled us to think creatively about how wood and glass could complement and create even greater harmony with the concrete walls,” says Ashley Heeren, Associate, Lake|Flato. “It forced us to try new things, which is perhaps the most exciting aspect of the house at every scale.”

White oak paneling lines the sleeping loft.

The island helps to define and separate the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas.
