contemporary home exterior

Brandon Architects, in collaboration with Morrison Interiors, has created this timeless contemporary house in the exclusive Big Canyon Golf Course community in Newport Beach, California. It seamlessly blends modern design with cozy, inviting elements, capturing the homeowner’s vision of a vibrant and radiant atmosphere. Ultimately, it elevates everyday living and serves as a personal reflection of thoughtful design.

This project is called “House Of A Thousand Dreams” because the owners had many pieces that were super important to them and that they wanted to be integrated into the design of their new home. Taking four years to complete, this contemporary masterpiece offers a home where guests can feel immediately at ease in this fabulous indoor-outdoor living environment.

What We Love: This beautiful house has a contemporary yet warm and inviting feel to it. We love the material selection of the exterior facade, with its textural, large-format limestone, which also pulls into the home’s interior to create harmony. The texture and color have been played up throughout the interiors of this home, along with industrial elements such as steel accents, such as the bar and kitchen island. Leaning into some of the more natural, earthy, grounding elements in this house is the beautiful selection of stone slabs.

Love the high kitchen island chairs that were selected for the home – is it possible to share where they were purchased?
