The "Black House" is a beautiful home surrounded by incredible views. Architects Bernardo Gomez-Pimienta and Hugo Sanchez sought to construct the home with the focus being on the views and surrounding landscape. The inner parts of the home are sterile with construction primarily out of concrete. The furniture appears very minimal set in the backdrop of the home. The things I love about this house are the incredible views and patios. The entire house seems to be shaped as a patio to maximize the grand surrounding scenery. This house would make for a grand weekend-getaway place to escape the rigors of the city and recharge one's batteries. Via.

Every room of this 21st century architectural wonder is decked out with super cool furniture, art, and creative touches you won't soon forget or see in any other hotel out there.

I have been attracted to white home interiors for the last few years. I find them to present a "clean" and "uncluttered" appeal, though to others they may be too sterile. The pictures here feature a house in the Dolomites, a beautiful mountain range in Italy. Pietro Borzini was the collaborator on this remodel project. One of the challenges was to resize many of the rooms to bring them up to scale with today's standards. A second challenge was to infuse the home with more light and thereby, enhance the impact of the predominant white interior design. From the pictures, you can see that they were able to accomplish both of these objectives. Via.
