MI-105 Modern Residence
Contemporary two-story residence featuring dramatic stone accent wall and sophisticated material integration
Project Overview
The MI-105 Modern Residence exemplifies contemporary residential design through its sophisticated exploration of material contrasts and architectural dialogue. This two-story family home demonstrates how different materials can be orchestrated to create visual drama while maintaining functional excellence and comfortable living environments.
The design philosophy centers around the concept of "material dialogue" - the strategic juxtaposition of contrasting materials to create architectural tension and visual interest. The dramatic dark stone accent wall serves as the focal point, creating a bold statement that anchors the composition while the lighter elements provide balance and harmony.
Completed in 2022, this 2000 square foot residence showcases how contemporary architecture can successfully integrate diverse materials and textures to create a home that is both visually striking and perfectly suited for modern family living, demonstrating the successful translation of design concepts into built reality.
