Architects Cut Through Roof To Convert Carriage House Into Sunbathed Home - Zábava
That perforated wall that angled at eye height for view and light might be the one if the smartest things I’ve EVER seen.
...ever seen, just like those through the wall from her point of view
but fr, one of the most ingenious and yet simple solutions I've seen, just li-...
Yeah I'm sure the mother quite thrilled at the thought that she can see her kids all the time while cleaning a million holes.
When you have that kind of money, an air cleaner/filter (less dust & house bunnies) is integrated in a smart home system ... or you can hire someone to clean it for you.
@@nyuszi36 If you clean somewhat regularly, a vacuum will solve your problem because the doesn't hasn't settled and accumulated that much.
@@masterlorden3075 Yeah sure there are ways to clean it, it's just so much more work to vacuum not only the floors but now also the walls including the roughly 6 meter high wall above the staircase which you'll need a latter for. I agree that the design looks amazing and useful for the case they designed it for. As Roxanne Salas mentioned I would also hope that they thought of some kind of smart air cleaner that will prevent dust from settling quickly.
Wow, a serious design video, with designers instead of celebraties and actual design drawings. Unbelievable!
True. AD has become mTV Cribs for celebs to showboat. Disgusting.
Shut up I love the celebrity homes they are easy to see character since we know the people although it’s more interior design than architecture but ugh people like both
@@Red-cm3ho just because youre one of those streetwalkers at Hollywood Boulevard who has celebrity clients all over Beverly Hills does not mean you have to rude about it
It’s so much nicer and more insightful, I’m not really here to see celebrities showing off their wacky loud scripted personalities
Engineers: "Sky Lights"
Architects: "Sky Volumes"
Me ☀ chimney 🤣
Me, a hole up there.
😂😂😀
Me: Roof Window
Making some actual real architecture content lately, great!
I didn't imagine such effort is possible like the holes in the wall in accordance to the parent's height like wow that's a whole another new level
This may not be everyone's dream home but it's this family's dream home and it all came together as perfectly as they could get it to work. With that said, this is actually a very good concept and well designed home.
They're an outstanding team. Their considerations were impressive.
This Dyson marketing campaign is genius. Pat on the back to whoever put it together.
The slow zooms on the vacuum were obvious and amusing, but honestly the video was such high quality, I didn't even care that it was an ad - which is what any marketing team should strive for.
I wonder what vacuum is actually used to clean the house every week. Eureka? Orick?
I'm glad they explained the idea and need behind the eye holes because if they hand't I would've just thought the design was ugly and unnecessary. If they ever do sell the house, best of luck to the new mom(s) and dad(s) who buy this property, hope you're the same height as original mom!
I didn´t liked the holes either. And what about the window that had to be opened with a broom? come on, there are plenty of more elegant solutions to that
@@vilwarin5635 name some more "elegant" solutions
@@vilwarin5635 That would be too much effort for opening a window, is just a window.
The way the light enters is wonderful. divine.
The wall porferated at eye level is so extra
It seems a bit whimsical and cute actually. Someone who is looking to design a home like this enjoys the use of natural light (from a prominent source) and abstract concepts of design to incorporate it into all areas of the house.
Gorgeous home. The outdoor space is 👌🏼👌🏼. The radiant heated floor such a plus. Having a home with light flooding in is so beautiful.
The center garden is a very much Chinese design in many older homes
Imagine having custom holes 🤔
Suomi
This project ended up being beautiful!I love how u made use of space and connecting the exterior with the interior and keeping the integrity of the house!
The home have ideas which I dreamt as a child to incorporate in my house, like section where nature and light is put in centre of the whole house
Beautiful. The light and courtyard are wonderful.
Really beautiful architecture!
That home is absolutely beautiful if I ever become rich I’m designing my house like this 😍
these are some of the most "new york" looking people ever...
Great Design
6:17 That chair matching to perforated wall is 🔥🔥
I like this house wish they show more.
So innovative, these conversion videos are the best. Turned out beautiful.
Beautiful and amazing.
I love how they explain why the design is as it is thank you for this love from aspiring architects ❤
stairway looks like the hole wall at chipotle
I really really love these kind of videos. Love the people who gets time to explain on howthey come up with the plan and design. And that sky volume ❤️. The details for that perforated holes, my gosh ❤️
To all the people involve in making the house and the video, I LOVE YOU GUYS ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Dyson.
That garden is what actually makes this place so special. Would have loved to learn a little more about how that works in the middle of the house, but otherwise a great video.
These lovely home are created by only those people who really love there work
This is why I love architecture. Gorgeous.
So thoughtfully designed! Amazing
Normal people : lights
Architects : luminous volume
😐
one of the nicest smaller homes ive seen
my parents are both interior designers so its really cool to learn about what they do for work
Love this channel so much. The video quality is fantastic. The content is very informative and is presented in an extremely aesthetic way. Keep up the goooooood work AD!
What a great design ! Simple and detailed , natural light, good proportions and a nice palette of materials 👌
I think I've found my dream home 😍
This was rather calming to watch.
Steven Hill
"Rather" is superfluous. Verbose ≠ impressive.
Steven Hill
Yet you responded.
excellent video! and such a beautiful home. these two spoke so professionally
great video! I loved the explanation and detailing involved - what a dream this would be
This is beautiful. Well done. I love the perforated wall w angled holes. Genius. One question that I've always wondered: how do you get the stairs sticking off the wall to be strong enough? What holds them up?
Even though the wall is holly (😳) it doesn't hinder its structural strength. Plus did you see the steel stair brackets ?
@@garrygballard8914 the stairs are holding up the wall, not the other way around. Right? I didn't see the brackets.Just tiny metal hooks. I'll have to look again
@@garrygballard8914 oh ok. So the stairs are sitting on brackets connected to the two walls. That makes sense. I just don't get what the perforated wall is connected to up above and how it gets stability. I guess from the stairs?
Beautiful. Please make more of these
Peaceful and Satisfying...I would had used glass instead of the perforated walls
No definitely use the perforated walls, it maintains the zoning while introducing an interesting texture
@@spamonfire1472 Plus the shine of glass would be distracting.
And fingerprint smudges
yeah, should've used a 4 ton, two story tall piece of glass xD
Wish to have a home like this. Love it.
beautiful design. Thank you for creating such space into the world 🥰
In terms of engineering, I think it the perforated walls are groundbreaking, but I honestly feel like a good ole glass banister would have looked nicer and opened up the space more.
those holes seem unsettling
@@EGoPRiNCExx The light will be absorbed/diffused into the space behind the barrier if it was a glass banister. The perforated walls allows the light to be reflected back.
I agree that glass probably would have looked better but I would imagine that it may have been a safety concern since it sounds like these people have little kids. Not to mention glass magnifies the sun which may have not been the goal for that space.
Why not just a thinner wall and regular holes?
Diggin' it. Nice presentation and use of material. :)
This is a Beauuuutiful house !!!!!!!!!!
This is a well thought through project that's so clean
I really love it, the garden inside the building 😍
Lots of good solutions. Well done!
I love these incredible unique homes
Absolutely love this house
Very informative, please more of these videos
wow this is what I’ve always looked for in architectural goals
This is some next level architecture, really impressive
Mind. Blown.
This house looks so much like the one from the movie When A Stranger Calls.
laughing at all the zoom ins of dyson products
Really cool- thank you ❤️🌟
wow,, amazing Guys...
Nice work!
What a gorgeous work, damn. It reminds me alot of Alvaro Siza's and Eduardo Souto de Moura works in the way the light was treated, thinking of chunk ortogonal shapes and volumes
I love this house. You had me at courtyard.
more content like this please!
Beth and Chris reminded me of a younger version of American Gothic.
Beautifull design very well thought out. You obviously thought of it as a work of art 😄
I loved the floor radiator detail. I didn’t even know that existed. Really cool.
ThatsABoysNameTV It‘s actually standard in most new developments in Europe so I‘m a bit amazed that it is unknown to Americans...
hockneyfication we’re generally behind
I find it interesting that in their discussion of the indoor garden in this carriage house these architects made no mention of the original concept which they basically copied: Japanese courtyard gardens. In Japan, courtyard gardens within the walls of a residence or in a small, enclosed space beside them, are known as tsuboniwa (坪庭). This type of Japanese garden first appeared during the Heian era (794 - 1192). These small indoor gardens are often found in machiyas, traditional wooden townhouses still found throughout Japan and typified in the historical capital of Kyoto.
Tsuboniwa is borrowed from Chinese Yuanyi style. No need to put a label on everything. And there are many other techniques and styles inspired by many other cultures and architects. These two designers put together designs with their twists to best fit the house and their clients.
Courtyard gardens have been used in houses around the world for thousands of years. Ancient Rome, China, Morocco, Algeria, and so on. Some concepts are fundamental and may develop independently in isolation. Though good architects are inspired by fine architecture throughout the world, I wouldn't call this copying.
Of all those videos I've seen, this seems like real engineers/architects at work... Not just showoff...
I love this, I'd just be stuck staring into the skylight if I lived there.
I do not like the brick wall and the stick-to-shutter say of closing that window blind
nice house but i cant get over the fact that they are using a wooden pole tho close that window while also having a smart desk lamp that connects to the internet and adjusts its color temperature to the time of day and location and a fan that filters and monitors microparticles in the air
Gorgeous
Bravo!
Beautiful! The only thing I would change is the wall with the holes in the stair. I'd rather have an ''open'' staircase, without any walls whatsoever encapsulating it
they might have closed it so the children dont fall off
Truly amazing.
I want a house like this that is small and cozy but has a large basement with light coming down from the main level and skylights. I want a large plot that could be adapted to bring natural light into the larger basement.
Never heard of that way of warming a house up either. "Radiant heat". Works perfect with concrete too since (as you say) it's a thermal mass. I've seen ppl make large concrete pillars that release heat energy stored from the sun at night, but this is much more clever.
Close of basement and only live in small upstairs with all necesities
elias östby May I ask you where you are from? I am wondering because this system is practically the norm for new developments at least in Switzerland, but also many other European countries as far as I know.
@@hockneyfication Sweden, mostly made that as a note to myself, a reminder to look into this stuff.
Ooh beautiful
light art cool 😀
This is it. This is what I want my home to be
stunning
Awesome
SWEET !!!
I love this
graet work
great!
This minecraft raytracing demo looks great!
Very nice. I like the use of perforation, something that maybe could be used more often since it doesn't necessarily imply a weaker structurem when literally opening up a wall completely is not desired. In fact, in some cases, it can improve the structural strength!
respectable
beautiful home, looks million times better. Who can afford it though lol
Finally something interesting architectural content instead of celebrity house show.
I've never heard holes said so many times to describe one thing 😂
My dream home!!!
Liked.
I live in GA- our AC bill in the summer is insane- wondering if u could also do radiant cooling?
Sarah Grace I have seen it in China
Being an OCD, I just imagine myself cleaning all those holes
An open staircase would have been better. They call it feature, i call it the greatest design mistake. Also the cubical light fixtures in the kitchen.
@@WAJK2030 i think with the children it would have been a bit hazardous - considering the fact that the architects went to the length of creating custom eye holes I'd say those kids need constant supervision
wow i loved your work, very creative wish I could have my home designed by you but i know i can not afford you :)
As an interior architect, this is so thought out. The skylight is complex and they went through the hassle of making custom perforated holes for that staircase. I mean. They couldve just installed railings so the owners could see whats below.
But the kitchen is a mess :(
they spent all the money on the courtyard and skybox
