Living Room Recessed Lighting Shelves Bookcase Concrete Floors Design Photos and Ideas

The family room couch is tucked into a nook to create a cozy retreat that still has views past the atrium to the backyard and kitchen.
The Atrium Townhome by Robitaille Curtis has a 32-foot atrium with a skylight running the full width of the house. The third story features a net “floor” at the top of the atrium that turns the void into a dramatic play surface adjacent to the kid’s bedrooms. The use of a net in this location precludes the need for guardrails and opens the floor plan to unimpeded views to and from the third floor. Riggers from Cirque du Soleil provided and installed the trapeze net.
A full-height wall of glass brings additional natural light into the open-plan living area. The step down creates a cozy divide in the space.
A few steps lead up to the dining room area.
The floor-to-ceiling windows look out onto the stone terrace and provide a strong connection with the outdoors.

Dawnsknoll optimizes the capture of natural light and cross ventilation, keeping down electrical costs. Interior/exterior courtyards, as well as the master and living room sliders, help circulate breezes. Sustainable heating is also introduced through radiant floor heating and domestic water heating throughout the house.
From the open-plan living and dining area to the adjoining bedroom, the owner can enjoy spectacular views of the sea.
