Predock Frane Architects created the impressive Habitat 15 project which is a four story, 15-unit infill housing project at the foot of the Hollywood Hills.

Each white apartment offers a different design with many light sources. What’s interesting about this project is that the building is split in two separate buildings – West and East, with a central courtyard acting as both a buffer and connection between them.

The white interior plays off the building white architecture magically. My favorite part of the building is the façade, it has a gorgeous original play of windows – scattered mosaic – Very Unique!

The location and design of this Beach House is Breathtaking! This stunning white house boasts the Pacific Ocean to the south, a gorgeous courtyard to the west, and the Pacific Coast Highway to the north.

There’s a perfect harmony between the straight ‘boxed’ and organic designs of this modern house. The architecture is very interesting and fully loaded with detail. The bright white interior offers a grand space for dining and entertaining, where residents and guests are surrounded by floor to ceiling windows and a collection of rooftop skylights.

I really like how the courtyard provides a visual and spacial link to the entry, the highway and the ocean beyond. Plus the white modern interior complements the house perfectly. What a truly magnificent dream home!

Adding a stylish extension to your home can dramatically boost its charm. It doesn’t even have to be a large addition, it just has to complement the existing home. I love the work ODOS architects completed on a refurbishment and home extension in Dalkey, Ireland.

The brilliant extension allows the owners to connect the back of the house to the second level effortlessly. One of the main design features is the various windows carefully placed throughout the extension adding a natural flood of light – giving the interior an almost dreamy affect. The outdoor garden shares the main floor with it’s minimal design. The black Terrazzo floor perfectly grounds the beautiful white interior. Very inspirational work!

The Sotogrande House is most definitely not your typical Spanish home! The architecture and design of this white vacation house truly sets itself apart. White plays the leading role throughout the spectacular interior which elevates each space and offers both play and contemplation. The drops of color here and there add charm and personality to the white interior. Once you get outdoors, the grand white architecture continues as the main attraction, where some greens and blues complement the great abode.

I simply adore the oversized organic mirror displayed in the entrance where the vibrant flowers and orchids add a nice burst of energy. The rooftop takes lounging to a whole other level! The marble stairs are dreamy! There are simply so many magical touches to enjoy throughout. I’m really lovin’ the use of different shapes and lines in both the exterior and interior. Classic design is abundant in the furniture choices. Going white leather on apair of iconic Eames chairs is not only bold but a clear indication that there’s a profound love for white governing this home.

I wish there were more images to enjoy so I could explore every hidden corner! Sotogrande is designed by A-cero Architectural Studio as a two floor single family vacation getaway. This is definitely one of our favorite LWW featured homes EVER!

This is such an interesting two-storey home located in Himeji Hyougo Japan. The livable space is compact, crisp and very fresh. Every room placement has been cleverly thought out to deliver ample natural lighting and modern functional living.

Tonoma did a wonderful job with the use of white and wood which is always a winning combo. The intersecting parts give the white Usuki house a personality of its own. I can just imagine how the interior would look with the right furnishings and accessories.

The white house really stands out from a distance which makes it that much more special. You also gotta love the interesting contrast between old and new architecture.

Good modern architecture is all about being in perfect harmony with the surroundings. The Angel’s Edge Project is truly one of a kind. Brian Messana designed an incredible modern beach house concept that would make any neighbor envious.

Although the project hasn’t been completed and is still a prototype, the architecture is remarkable. Messana cleverly took inspiration from the ocean’s waves and the landscape’s rippled slope where the house seems to flow with it’s natural environment effortlessly. The home balances organic architecture with sharp edges and wavy incline.

The unique house is interesting from all around – It almost disappears naturally into the Pacific Ocean. Breathtaking!

If your feeling this project, you’ll definitely love the modern white home set at the foot of a steep escarpment in Ireland.

This remarkable white home is set at the foot of a steep escarpment in the Wicklow Hills in Ireland. The bold white architecture has just the right touch of color – notably the red columns below and the visually appealing paneling on the side of the house.

This is an amazing modern home that works wonderfully in partnership with Mother Nature. I’m appreciating the large windows, open spaces and of course – the White!

Wow! The 40-foot exterior façade is comfortably striking with pillow-like concrete tiles. I’m absolutely feeling the patches of green that play with the small windows in the front.

Once inside, you’re wooed by the impeccable wall applications and creative textures. The interior walls are quite unique, including custom wallpaper inspired by ancient Korean ceramics. Mirrors are perfectly used to create play and open up the space.

The use of White with touches of Gold really sets the stage for showcasing 3.1 Phillip Lim creations in a very bold and beautiful setting. The oak floor brilliantly transitions through a gradient of grey tones. I really appreciate the herringbone floor pattern which really expands on the visual integrity of the spaces.

By Leong Leong Architecture:

“We conceived of the façade and interior walls as being lined with evocative textures, a characteristic of Phillip Lim’s design sensibility. It was during this part of the design process that we collaborated very closely with Phillip. The material liners create a narrative of atmospheres from one space to another, each offering an unexpected encounter with the clothing.”

The Tamina Thermal Baths is part of the the Grand Resort in Bad Ragaz, Switzerland. It consists of a remarkable building that houses a bathing hall, large sauna area, shops and a restaurant. The open-air baths are surrounded by the natural landscape which envelopes the magnificent Swiss design and architecture. Speaking of outdoor landscape – it’s magnificent! I just can’t get over the jaw-dropping presence, colossal windows, towering heights and all that heavenly white! The project was conceived by Smolenicky & Partner architecture in Zurich.

From Joseph Smolenicky -

“The Tamina thermal baths is explicitly conceived as a part of the grand-hotel culture. The cultural and aesthetic identity of the project seeks an affinity to both Swiss tradition and the grand hotels of the Baltic coast, such as Heiligendamm.

“Metaphorically the creation of the interior spaces of the project has an analogy in cutting clearings in the pattern of a forest by felling individual trees. This is the reverse of the common design process. The exterior spaces are similarly created by “felling” supports on the periphery of the building volume. Structurally the building can be more or less seen as a forest, created out of columns instead of trees – a total of 115 supports using the timber of 2,200 fir-trees (this amount of wood is regenerated in Switzerland in two-and-a-half hours).”

This beautiful white home belongs to a retired Los Angeles record executive turned successful restaurateur – Leah Simon. The interior design of this mid-century ranch house is filled with flavor to savor and then some. Carefully chosen contemporary furniture mixed with whimsical and playful inspirations are just some of the key ingredients. Leah worked with designer Susanna Kost and architect Jim Sullivan to complete her vision. The spaces are bold and interesting maintaining a special flow without compromising excitement!

When Leah contacted us, we almost couldn’t believe the home was sitting on a street named Whitehaven in Baton Rouge. Yes – Whitehaven! The exterior façade which was originally pink was painted white which makes the home look brilliant and sets the stage for all the goodness inside. White is everywhere, celebrated but not overused – absolutely love it!

As you enter the home, you’re greeted by these very regal repurposed 1970s chairs that were discovered discarded on the curb outside a furniture store. I’m really feeling the Starck Ghost Chairs and Frank Gehry lighting which really enhance the dining space. The kitchen is spacious and stunningly white. I’m also feeling the exquisite upholstered pieces and artwork throughout the home. The unique choices and thoughtful touches scream creativity and exceptionally good taste!
