An interior build-out of a two-level penthouse unit in a prestigious downtown highrise. The design emphasizes the continuity of space for a loft-like environment. Sliding doors transform the unit into discrete rooms as needed. The material palette reinforces this spatial flow: white concrete floors, touch-latch cabinetry, slip-matched walnut paneling and powder-coated steel counters. Whole-house lighting, audio, video and shade controls are all controllable from an iPhone, Collaboration: Joel Sanders Architect, New York. Photographer: Rien van Rijthoven

Structural Glass Conservatory, Cornwall

The Bazeley Partnership

This structural glass addition to a Grade II Listed Arts and Crafts-inspired House built in the 20thC replaced an existing conservatory which had fallen into disrepair. The replacement conservatory was designed to sit on the footprint of the previous structure, but with a significantly more contemporary composition. Working closely with conservation officers to produce a design sympathetic to the historically significant home, we developed an innovative yet sensitive addition that used locally quarried granite, natural lead panels and a technologically advanced glazing system to allow a frameless, structurally glazed insertion which perfectly complements the existing house. The new space is flooded with natural daylight and offers panoramic views of the gardens beyond. Photograph: Collingwood Photography

A barn-style door in the entry hall conceals what is now the Master Bedroom. Whereas this area was originally part of the open space, Adamik and Churney agreed to build the wall to create more personal environment. The stainless hardware of the rolling door system strikes an even balance between industrial and residential design, with its exposed mechanics and refined finish. Having the door painted the same color as the walls helps it disappear when closed. Door Hardware: barndoorhardware.com; Pendant Light: Visual Comfort

A contemporary custom kitchen cabinet system by Boffi in natural wood holds court in the eat-in kitchen amongst stunning views, white marble counters and floor, and top of the line appliances. Beyond being highly functional for the home chef, the cabinets add a warm visual accent that brings the wooded outdoors inside. Phtography by Adrian Wilson
