Clean Lines Meet Functional Living

Overview

The Zeal project offers a clean, modern take on efficient living without sacrificing style or comfort. Designed with entertaining, functionality, and privacy in mind, this contemporary home blends airy, open-concept spaces with thoughtfully placed private retreats. Its understated yet bold exterior makes Zeal a standout residence that feels effortlessly connected to its surroundings.


Client Type

This home was designed for homeowners seeking a modern, efficient residence that maximizes both interior space and outdoor living potential. The clients wanted a home that feels expansive where it counts, provides privacy for bedrooms, and offers seamless indoor-outdoor flow — perfect for both everyday living and hosting guests.


Project Scope

The Zeal project included a comprehensive architectural design with a focus on functional efficiency, privacy, and sleek, contemporary aesthetics. Key design elements include:


  • Open-concept great room, kitchen, and dining area

  • Large windows flooding the living space with natural light and views

  • Outdoor patio with raised ceiling height for expanded entertainment space

  • Private bedroom layout with bedrooms located away from main living areas

  • Front bedroom ideal for a guest suite or dedicated home office

  • Master suite at the rear of the home with oversized bathroom and walk-in closet

  • Modern contemporary exterior with shallow shed roofs and bold aluminum fascias

  • Stucco finishes with siding accents for a clean, welcoming appearance

  • Standing seam metal roofing for durability and sharp visual appeal

  • Neutral, natural color palette blending with the landscape


Challenges Addressed

The key design challenge was maximizing usable living space within a modest footprint while maintaining clear separation between public and private areas. The clients also emphasized a need for strong indoor-outdoor connectivity and an exterior aesthetic that feels modern yet timeless, requiring careful architectural detailing and material selection.


Goals Achieved

✔️ Open, light-filled living spaces with seamless outdoor connection

✔️ Private, well-placed bedrooms for quiet and retreat

✔️ Flexible front bedroom ideal for guests or home office use

✔️ Sleek, modern exterior with simple yet bold architectural lines

✔️ Durable, low-maintenance finishes suited to the environment

✔️ A welcoming, functional home ideal for entertaining and daily living
