A better tomorrow is as much about saving energy today as it is about embracing nature and creating a connection between our interiors and nature outside. Accomplishing all this with a fluid design that combines two stunningly beautiful residences with one another and also the rugged coastal landscape around them is the Logie Point House designed by Guz Architects. Nestled on Jersey, the largest of the Channel Islands, this majestic and relaxing contemporary home welcomes you with a green roof that feels like a simple and organic extension of the greenery around it. Hidden inside this carpet of green are two multi-level residences that promise captivating views of the sea and beyond.

Green roof becomes a part of the home and creates a link between the residence and the landscape








Stone and slate walls, floor-to-ceiling glass walls and a curved roof shape the distinct and spacious living rooms in here. A closed walkway with glass walls links the public and private areas even as it meanders through a lovely natural garden that is filled with reefs and plants. This native vegetation also filters the water entering into the natural pond and the swimming pool, making it another eco-friendly feature. A curvy staircase leads way to the upper level of the house with an open living area where one can relax while enjoying the ever-changing sights and sounds outside.

The New Old

It all started with a pendant light found in an exhibition in Paris. Named the New Old Light, it mixes eastern and western styles, old and modern aesthetics and encapsulated a lot of the ideals for a young Taiwanese American couple as they started their new home. This concept of the New Old extended beyond the light and became a central tenet to the renovation once the couple moved back to this space as a family with twins. The project was a small renovation of a kitchen and living room in a 1,000-square-foot condo to accommodate the family. The renovation included new floors, lighting, kitchen cabinetry, custom millwork and ceramic dinnerware for the space. The kitchen island design was inspired by Donald Judd’s library table. It had to provide adequate storage for the kitchen as well as function as an eating/work space at times. In addition, the island was constructed so that the storage volume could be removed from the bookcase legs and table top, for future use as a counter-height table. Sliding doors are constructed with hidden sliding hardware, and the design was inspired by traditional Shoji screens. Ceramic dinnerware was custom created for the kitchen space.
