Perched on an incline above Wyoming\u2019s Snake River Valley, with the Grand Tetons as a backdrop, this innovative compound<\/a> rewrites the rules of mountain living. Los Angeles design studio Hammer and Spear<\/a> teamed up with Andersson\/Wise<\/a> and OSM Construction to devise a cluster of eco-conscious buildings and outdoor rooms that hug the terrain to establish epic views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dining room, furnished with a custom table designed by Hammer and Spear and handcrafted by Petersen Antiques<\/a>, opens directly onto the hillside. Afra & Tobia Scarpa<\/a> Monk chairs in black leather provide a graphic contrast to the rammed-earth walls and adobe floors with exposed hay fibers. An antique rug<\/a> softens the mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur vision was to create a space where the architecture and furnishings felt in quiet conversation with the land, never shouting over it,\u201d explains Scott Jarrell, who runs Hammer and Spear<\/a> with his wife, Kristan Cunningham,. \u201cThe view is cinematic, and we knew we had to meet that drama with restraint.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Providing a touch of industrial ruggedness, a custom chandelier, made in collaboration with Randy Zieber and Jason Koharik<\/a>, features raw-crystal lighting elements hanging from blackened-brass chains, while the doors operate via a crank and leather-belt pulley system by Turner Exhibits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside, Carlos Motta<\/a>\u2019s Asturias rocking armchairs and Bari Ziperstein\u2019s custom ceramic-and-wood tables huddle around the firepit<\/a>. \u201cMore than anything, we wanted this space to feel like a shelter that breathes with its environment,\u201d Jarrell says. \u201cA place to gather, to pause, to watch the light move across the mountains. A place with soul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Devin Hines and his Hines Collective<\/a> team fashioned a duplex penthouse<\/a> in Manhattan\u2019s Tribeca neighborhood into a stylish aerie. \u201cThe moment you enter this home you’re immersed in the impressive scale of the space,\u201d he says. \u201cYou’re floating nearly 80 stories in the clouds, and we wanted you to really experience the elevated sense of serenity and openness showcased by the view.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The living room has a custom two-sided sofa upholstered in Kravet<\/a> fabric, accompanied by an Ayala Serfaty<\/a> pouf from Maison Gerard<\/a>. Near the windows, Andr\u00e9 Sornay<\/a> armchairs flank a shagreen 4-in-1 Saturn game table<\/a> by R&Y Augousti<\/a>; all were sourced through 1stDibs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Contour coffee table<\/a> by DeMuro Das<\/a> provides additional surface area, while a 21-foot silk rug by Doris Leslie Blau<\/a> covers the floor. A gas-burning fireplace, whose chimney is clad in wave-like marble slabs extending 12 feet to the ceiling, anchors the composition with geological weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The intention was for the interior to feel like a natural and cohesive extension of the outdoor loggia,\u201d Hines says. \u201cEven rooms without direct outdoor access offer uninterrupted views, making the entire home feel in step with the sky.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What better way to represent work-life balance than a home office situated right next to a bar leading out to the pool area?” asks Kara Smith, head of KES Studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a calming contemporary home for a family in Beverly Hills<\/a>, she created a study that doubles as an entertaining space, layered with subdued natural hues and textured finishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe design of the home is California organic modern, which uses a neutral color palette with accents of taupe, cognac and blush in select areas and lots of beautiful plaster to provide warmth and richness,\u201d Smith explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bar\/office embodies a high-style work-(and-play-)from-home ethos, furnished with whimsical counter stools<\/a>, Table Art glassware plus a refurbished desk and chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smith used titanium travertine for the bar along with white-oak flooring. A Tera lamp by Ceramicah<\/a> provides ambient lighting, while a mirrored wall behind the bar reflects the pool area beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe indoor-outdoor flow was very important to the client,\u201d Smith says. \u201cWe created this particular space to accommodate her love of entertaining as well as her professional commitments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Southern California, a sprawling Andalusian-inspired house<\/a> with interiors by Ohara Davies-Gaetano<\/a> strikes a lyrical balance between comfort and drama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou feel as though you\u2019re suspended above the sea,\u201d Davies-Gaetano says. \u201cDespite that floating sensation, the space remains grounded \u2014 anchored by its sculptural presence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An 18th-century fireplace<\/a> anchors this sitting area in the primary bedroom, while a plush daybed<\/a> near the wide-open portal, framed by aqua-colored Kravet<\/a> drapes, offers the ideal spot from which to gaze out at the endless horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side of the divan are a Lilian August<\/a> cocktail table, a Niermann Weeks<\/a> swivel chair and a spindly Oly<\/a> side table, all underneath a swooping Canopy Design chandelier. Repurposed antique doors, with their original patina intact, lead to the adjacent bath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hushed color scheme inside allows the Pacific blues and sunset hues to be the focus. \u201cThe result is a rhythm of living where nature and architecture are in quiet dialogue,\u201d the designer says, \u201cand the distinction between interior and exterior softly fades.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a contemporary Austin house<\/a> bursting with maximalist pattern and color, designer Fern Santini<\/a> took a more restrained approach with the primary bedroom \u2014 a restorative retreat just steps from the pool and garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe design direction from the client was that she wanted to feel like this was her sanctuary,\u201d Santini says. \u201cLess pattern, a bit more calm than the rest of the house. We discussed what \u2018dreamy\u2019 looks and feels like.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porter Teleo<\/a>\u2019s hand-painted wallpaper of biomorphic shapes in gentle hues artistically envelops the entire interior. Mounted on top of this are vintage charcoal nudes alongside an oil painting by the homeowner\u2019s mother, personal touches that give the space warmth and intimacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A white shearling rug adds softness underfoot, while a club chair swathed in a fawn-like Schumacher<\/a> gros point introduces a playful cuddliness. Custom wood nightstands and svelte brass lamps keep the palette refined, saving the pop of color for what Santini calls \u201cthe icing on the cake\u201d \u2014 a bolster upholstered in Herm\u00e8s<\/a> scarves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe view outside is magical and really adds to the sense of tranquility,\u201d Santini says. In a house with plenty of statement moments, this room stands out by scaling back. It\u2019s still personal, still layered, but built for an exhale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an old stone house in New Canaan<\/a>, Connecticut, Studio McGrath<\/a> designed a stylish living room that channels both tradition and ease. \u201cWe leaned into the home\u2019s historic architectural details, and layered seating arrangements that work for everything from formal entertaining to quiet evenings by the fire,\u201d says Lauren McGrath, who runs the firm with her mother, Suzanne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The designers\u2019 furniture choices traverse periods and styles. “We sourced some incredible antiques for this space,\u201d McGrath says, \u201cincluding the rare bronze mid-century coffee table and a pair of Scandinavian armchairs. Muted prints were incorporated to add dimension.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lee Jofa<\/a> Garden Roses fabric adorns the sofa by the fireplace, introducing botanical motifs that jibe with the leafy property, while a casual Susan Deliss stripe covers the slipper chairs. Soft silvery grays lead the gaze outside, through a pair of French doors. \u201cIt\u2019s about bridging the past and the present,” McGrath says, “indoors and out, without missing a step.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a fashion-industry couple juggling three residences across two continents, Robert G. Stephan, principal of Munich-based<\/a> firm THE ROPE<\/a>, transformed a Bavarian villa in the city\u2019s suburbs into an expression of international modernism<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than defaulting to Alpine motifs or Teutonic restraint, Stephan orchestrated a cross-cultural dialogue that speaks to his clients\u2019 nomadic lifestyle and cosmopolitan tastes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A comfortable living space<\/a> adjoining the courtyard centers on Vladimir Kagan<\/a>\u2019s iconic Freeform sofa, its boomerang curvature echoed in the kidney-shaped bronze-and-stone tables by Silas Seandel<\/a>. A sumptuous Tai Ping<\/a> silk carpet provides a smooth foundation, while the BDDW<\/a> floor lamp punctuates the composition like a human-size exclamation mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The outdoor space features Asturias rockers by Carlos Motta<\/a> for ESPASSO<\/a>, extending the modernist vocabulary beyond the villa\u2019s walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Stephan, this eclectic assemblage embodies a design philosophy that values provenance and craftsmanship. \u201cIt\u2019s always worth having a closer look at the heritage and the context of design objects,\u201d he says. \u201cYou can feel the beauty of timeless design.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atop a townhouse<\/a> in Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill, Steven Harris Architects<\/a> and Rees Roberts + Partners<\/a> conjured a pavilion<\/a> that defies urban expectations. RRP principal Lucien Rees Roberts crafted a space that prioritizes natural serenity over spectacle while honoring both modernist principles and classical proportions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is a very spare, minimal interior, incorporating traditional elements,\u201d he says, \u201cbut more of an Aalto<\/a> take on traditional.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A woolly white Clam chair<\/a> by Arnold Madsen<\/a> and low tripod stools by Charlotte Perriand<\/a> provide seating while visually tempering the pavilion\u2019s linear design with organic roundness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perriand\u2019s influence goes beyond individual pieces, informing the space\u2019s functional beauty, including expansive windows that frame views of the neighborhood\u2019s verdant streetscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The terrace extends the interior volumes, blurring distinctions between sheltered and open-air living. For Rees Roberts, the project exemplifies his firm’s commitment to environmental sensitivity and human comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe presence of light and views is always a significant focus of ours,\u201d he says. \u201cLight should make you look good and feel good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking out over the Great Smoky Mountains of eastern Tennessee, this placid bedroom<\/a> was conceived by Blackberry Farm Design<\/a> to quietly complement its majestic surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA room like this doesn\u2019t just frame the view \u2014 it lives in conversation with it,\u201d says Christine Carney, the studio’s director of design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Double doors open to a stone-walled porch, where custom porch swings, handcrafted locally, invite swaying amid the treetops. Inside, a pair of side chairs and a small oval-top table, all antiques, bring a sense of history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe design was meant to be quiet, timeless and classic,\u201d Carney says. \u201cNature itself becomes the room\u2019s most compelling work of art.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the behest of the owners of a house in Newport, California<\/a>, Sheldon Harte of Harte Brownlee<\/a> steered clear of the “proverbial blue-and-white beach house with seashell motifs,” and instead looked to Bali and Sri Lanka for the guiding aesthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, he embraced pieces that were “weathered, textured and worn, which look great at the beach and are easy to live with.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
