Love the scene in that last pic, the rest is awesome, but not my style.

Yeah, there’s just too much going on in the house, but as separate spaces they work better. I agree with Alyssa. The bathroom is nice, it’s the tub that I would kill for. The main living area is nice and open and yes the fountain going into the pool from the second story would definitely make for some pleasant sounds and of course the meditation area in the last photo is great too with the water plants and all.

Impressive to say the least! The front elevation shows complexity and blending with the landscaping while quite uniquely pulling it off.
The interior seems to lose the same blend in places where it seems too stark to have the appeal the residence is complemented by?
I would consider pulling some of the charm in the textures offered in the landscape and incorporating the lively natural ambiance and light to counter the starkness.
Very clean work and good melding of furnishings.
Put an open skylight, waterfall and ferns in the bath and I’ll be right there! Kudos!

That bathtub is really creative.

Too much of elements in this house…so crowded and needs simplicity…though, it has some nice spaces and colors…

Have to agree with some of the previous comments… although I generally do like a certain degree of complexity that invites you to explore and to experience (rather than a ‘first glance – seen all’ scenario)this house seems too messy overall. There are a few interesting details, but while being overly cluttered overall, the various spaces in themselves seem a bit naked and boring at times. Looks to me like a handful of great ideas and concepts, but it didn’t work out in the end…

Love the ceiling, his combination of rough precast and modern suspended ceilings is perfect.

Looks like they hired an interior designer – who sadly had to find someplace to put the ‘antique’ cabinets and the Ayrton Senna shrine.

despite there’re lots of elements an shapes in that house i cant see the main idea, there are soo many things which catch eyes that i can’t concentrate of any of them, but i like the materials and colors

The exterior is too crazy and hectic. It’s like the house is trying to shout “Hey, look at me!” The interior is a little bit better, but again not my style.
