Beautiful Houses: Lookout House in Connecticut

February 04, 2011 from GisMullr's blog

The idea in this series is to show beautiful and inspiring houses. Houses that are remarkable for its design, elegance, elements, concept or simply because they are beautiful. So if you like architecture, interior design and beautifully designed houses, you are at the right spot. Check out this week beautiful house and stay tuned for more...

This week we present you the beautiful Lookout House.

The Lookout House is a project by Ike Kligerman Barkley Architects, a 25-person firm of architects, interior designers, and supporting staff that offers both architectural and interior design services in an established, diverse, design-oriented practice. Located in Fairfield County, Connecticut this pyramid house was renovated to erase the aging, brown vestiges of the 1979 original. A new arm stretches to the east, housing the master bedroom suite and family room on the lower pool level. A sustainable project, this house integrates geothermal heating and cooling systems, renewable materials like bamboo floors and eco-friendly paints and finishes.

This house is pretty beautiful and elegant. The material combinations, the nice mix of stone and glass, the open and wide spaces, everything is unique, creating a cozy and special house. Certainly another place I would live in. ;)

Check out Ike Kligerman Barkley Architects website for further details about this and other projects. See you next time.
