Casa Puerto Cayo: A Modern Home by the Sea of Ecuador
Who doesn’t want to live in a house near the beach? It would be very relaxing to hear the waves while you sleep and it is nice that you can go to the waters whenever you want to without traveling to a far place. It would even be nicer if you have a beautifully designed modern home where you can invite friends and family over. We have featured different beach homes before and today we have another one to add to your list of inspirations. This home has an impressive modern design with a spacious lawn and an upper covered patio. The house is called Casa Puerto Cayo in Ecuador. The Casa Puerto Cayo is described as “a house where time runs slow and life is enjoyed to the full. A place that invites us to rediscover our essence and leads us to understand that we are part of a whole, part of nature, part of the universe.” It sure is a beautiful description of the house and as we look into its design, we end up nodding our heads to the statement of Gabriel Rivera Arquitectos. The project is an answer to the need of a couple of foreigners who wanted to change their lifestyle as they live on the coasts of Puerto Cayo, Ecuador. The house sits on a 1.250m2 lot and is totally privileged for its location facing the sea. The design of the house responds to the natural geography of the coastal profile, directing its gaze towards the northwest. It is organized from two main axes wherein one point towards the beach and forms the first volume containing the private spaces and another perpendicular which contains the social areas and that relates directly to the external nature. Let us take a short virtual tour of the house through the images below: Location: Puerto Cayo | Manabí | Ecuador Designer: Gabriel Rivera Arquitectos Style: Modern Number of Floors: Two Unique feature: A modern beach house that features wooden brise-soleils covers that slide over glass doors. This protects the home from the sun and gives added security. Similar House: Modern Miami Beach House with Tropical Beauty in Florida Gabriel Rivera Arquitectos designed this modern home which is organized in an L shape, with one side pointing towards the beach, and the other containing the social areas. The exterior naturally suits the landscape around it as it used the material palette of white, wood, and stone. At night the house lights up from all angles which create an ethereal effect. The house features a series of wooden sun-cracks which allow a moving facade. One of its purposes is to protect the inhabitants from the intense equatorial sun and to keep the house closed during the three months of the year when it remains uninhabited. The wooden elements of the house, along with the white walls, the travertine marble, and the surrounding nature, create the perfect combination to make Casa Cayo a truly inspiring space. On the upper floor, there’s a covered patio area which is protected from the sun by a shade sail. The area is simply decorated and is surrounded by plants creating the effect of a railing-less deck. Read Also: Castle Rock Beach House: A Holiday Home Overlooking the Ocean in New Zealand The house features a stone walkway that brings guests to the front of the home where one can enter through the front door or the sliding patio doors. The patio can be enclosed by glass doors but for extra security, wood brise-soleils covers slide over the glass doors. The location of the house allows it to have a large lawn and direct access to the beach. Inside the house, the dining and living room has a breathtaking view of the water. The interior used a combination of white, stone, and wood which are also used on the exterior of the home, thus creating a cohesive design. The dining and living area is located in a space with a large opening that allows the entry of natural light. It also allows the owners to get a good view of the outdoor area. Simplistic lighting and a corner window keep the bedroom bright and allow for the view of the beach to be the most important element in the room. From the bedroom, one can get a good view of the beach from this area. This is also a good place to relax and unwind. This image gives us a closer look of the home where we can see a wooden fencing and a balcony with glass railings. This is how the house looks like from the street. As you can see, it is really lovely sight near the beach! It would really be nice to live near the beach. Apart from being near nature, it would be very relaxing and would even feel like it’s a holiday every day. How much more if the house has a beautiful design like this one designed by Gabriel Rivera Arquitectos? You will surely love to go home if you have a house as beautiful as this. Even your friends would love to return to your home! Although we only saw few images of the house, we are given a hint that everything in the interior is indeed stunning!

Shingle California Home Designed by Barclay Butera
Beautifully designed by one of the most talented interior designers in America, Barclay Butera, this shingle California home exudes timeless elegance with a casual feel. Here, the designer share more details about this project: “The home was originally purchased by a dear friend after her divorce and when we asked her what her dream design aesthetic would be, she said “tranquil.” That one word was the mantra for everything we did throughout the design process. From fabrics to furnishings, our goal was to deliver the idea of floating on a big fluffy cloud over an ocean of sea life and muted, oceans of green. Call it sea foam if you must. Even the paint color we used throughout the home was named Tranquility (by Benjamin Moore). The home was your typical track home from early 2000, with dark cabinets, dark floors, and consistently dark and drab paint colors. We painted all the existing cabinets and built-ins White by Dunn Edwards to lift the spirit of the home. In the great room, because of the high ceilings, we added V Groove horizontal paneling and finished it in driftwood white to add a beachy, worn-over-time touch which made the room feel cozier. Slipcovered sofas, raffias and rope accents on soft neutral area rugs complete the airy vibe. Kitchen cabinets and the adjoining room built-in were graced with the same white-wash. The spaces came alive and were the perfect backdrop for soft, subtle green and chocolate. The master bedroom was not a large space (the bathroom was bigger) so we kept the entire room very subtle. Even though the duvet and euro shams are in a bold Celerie Kimble print, the colors are understated. The headboard is upholstered in a natural raw silk. Beachy art adds to the feeling of relaxation. Horizontal stripes, cream sheers on burnished bamboo rods let light filter in but allow the homeowner to view the outdoors!” Read on and take notes on all sources, paint colors and more!
