When Every Step is a Step Into the Unexpected | Link House

ByMyProperty Life

Link House designed by the visionary Openideas Architects located in the heart of the city is a groundbreaking architectural marvel stands as a testament to creativity and ingenuity. Designed as a sprawling 22,000 sq. ft home for an entrepreneur and real estate magnate, this house defies the norms of conventional living.

The challenge presented was monumental: to construct two distinct houses and an outhouse on a confined plot. Embracing this challenge, Openideas Architects proposed an innovative solution — two separate blocks for the father and son, cleverly elevated and connected with entertainment areas at the upper level. This ingenious design minimized ground coverage. Also, giving rise to lush green pockets, sunken courts, and expansive lawns within the limited space. Aptly named “Link House,” this creation symbolizes the bridge between generations, ideologies, and experiences.

The journey through The Link House begins with a dynamic bridge flowing over water bodies and greens, set the stage for extraordinary experiences that lie beyond. Meticulously planned spaces unfold as one ascends, ingeniously catering to the unique needs of both father and son. The upper level reveals a dynamic entertainment space, seamlessly connec the distinct houses and overlook the pool area with stepped garden pockets.

The ground level, below the flowing bridge, cradles the parent’s abode, providing tranquility and security. Simultaneously, the adjacent block housing the son’s home interconnects both upper and lower levels, creating sunken courts for family gatherings that open up into vast, verdant lawns.
In every aspect, Link House is a manifestation of thoughtful design where luxury meets functionality, surprises abound at every turn, and each day unfolds as a unique experience.
Internally, the residence is adorned with the finest Italian marble and wood, reflecting a blend of luxury, warmth, and elegance. Every room, a canvas, merges modern contemporary aesthetics with timeless elegance.
At the basement level, a sanctuary awaits with a home theater and a spa featuring a skylight that redefines calmness. This oasis extends into a soothing blue water body, surrounded by nature penetrating through concrete.

  • Cache House

    Heated radiant floors, high-design fittings, and a communal spirit rooted in Jackson Hole’s homesteading history await the modern-day explorer at the recently opened Cache House, an elegant new hostel at the heart of the celebrated Wyoming Valley. Like its sister property Anvil, a 50-room hotel located directly above, Cache House is also the work of Brooklyn-based Studio Tack. The space, which once served as a blacksmith shop and later a hostel in the 1990s, was gut-renovated and infused with a new minimalist aesthetic imbued with warm and welcoming, rustic touches.

  • Burnt Cedar

    This is a full-time beach house for a car passionate family of four situated across from Burnt Cedar Beach in Incline Village, Nevada on the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Prior to being pulled up the hill to flumes and rails destined for Virginia City, logs were staged here as the mountains around the lake shore were logged during the silver mining years of the 1860s. Set into a neighborhood originally built in the 1950s and bordered by houses to the sides and rear, the house takes a simple box form, half buried into the slope. It faces the lake with full height glazing that encloses a loft-like plan with double height living spaces. The clients requested a space that felt like the landscape and maintained a feeling inside of being outside in the light and shadow play of the sixty to ninety-foot Jeffrey and Ponderosa pines that populate the lake shore.  Perforated wood ceilings and acoustical plaster walls soften the sounds of the concrete and glass pavilion-like house. An underground garage is excavated under the house with level access to the street, a must in this snowy climate for a family with an eclectic car collection.
