The “Modern Family Retreat” is a contemporary residential architecture project designed for a young family with multiple small children. Situated in a picturesque suburban neighborhood, this house blends modern architectural elements with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The primary focus of the design was to create a family-friendly space with ample natural light and a strong connection to the pool and backyard, while also providing the parents with a private retreat. Additionally, the design places a strong emphasis on entertaining and kid-centric spaces, recognizing the importance of hosting gatherings and playdates.
The primary design principles for this custom family home were ample natural light, pool and backyard integration, elevated living spaces, parental retreat, and entertainment and kid-centric spaces. The architectural features included an open floor plan, kid-friendly design with an emphasis on safety and functionality, energy efficiency, timeless materials, and smart home integration.
