Dominant Modern Mansion by GLR Arquitectos
Is there any better way to open new year than with this beautiful modern mansion? The place is called CH House and it is designed by GLR Arquitectos in Monterrey, the capital city of the northeastern state of Nuevo León in the country of Mexico.
First thing I noticed is that minimalist modern facade makes this modern mansion quite dominant over its surroundings. And black panels on the upper floor are just making the house stand out even more. Property is gated with tall concrete fence which hides gorgeous swimming pool with waterfall and fountain along with terrace. Very beautiful and nicely designed. This home will definitely go into "modern homes with pools" post this year.
When mansion looks so dominant from the outside, you can imagine how it looks inside. We haven't seen interiors so large and so open on "world of architecture" yet. Exposed concrete walls are rising to the roof, making the ceilings seriously tall. I have no idea how they clean this home. This design created opportunity for something I seriously love. Interior glass walls on the upper floor, overlooking the ground floor with living room and dining room. It's perfect and very impressive looking.
Another thing I would like to mention is modern bathroom. With beautiful white bathtub, glass shower cabin and shiny wooden walls, it is one of the most beautiful modern bathrooms I've seen. I would love to own it. What do you think?

Amazing Glass and Concrete Godoy House in Mexico
Godoy Residence is amazing glass and concrete modern home designed by Hernandez Silva Arquitectos in Guadalajara, a capital city of Jalisco state in Mexico. The house is real treat for modern architecture lovers. Take a look.
With ratio of glass and concrete slightly higher than we usually see on modern homes, street facade on Godoy Residence says "I want to be open, but not too much." At least that's how I see it. According to architects, reason why they used more glass on usually closed street facade is to catch as much of daylight as possible since this side doesn't catch much of the sun.
Rear elevation or backyard facade is one completely different story. The most interesting part is without doubt this impressive cantilever with the first floor above and open terrace below it which can easily be turned into indoor terrace. We've seen this before in FF House also designed by Hernandez Silva Arquitectos. Inside the house I would definitely pay attention on amazing glass wall in the bedroom which creates minimalist and modern atmosphere. For someone who loves this kind of stuff, perfect.
