5. Modern Warmth
When these homeowners moved to the North Okanagan region of British Columbia, Canada, they hired Form Collective to design a country home perched atop a hill. Their top priority was for the home to celebrate comfortable indoor-outdoor living in a way that would honor the views. This screened-in porch, which has sliding walls that open it up to the interior of the house, is the best example of how the house achieves this. Note the way the screened openings on the porch extend from floor to ceiling, making the most of the sweeping views across the property.
While the porch has clean modern style, it’s also a warm space. The light tones of the natural oak used for the screen frames and ceiling play beautifully off the sandy and tan hues of the fireplace’s stones. A patterned rug layers warmth atop the stamped concrete floor. Finally, the large firebox suits the scale of the chimney and the porch, allowing everyone to view the full height of the flames.
