Stacie Giroux
Arquitectonica award winning townhome! Some of the most unique architectural features offered in any townhome in the inner city. Distinguishing curved yellow wall with a back drop of gray with glass glass block accents in Houston’s vivacious Museum District. Bright colors exude happiness and warmth and add dimension to the home. The home includes a spacious two-car parking space and extra parking on the street for guests. Palm trees bring in a beachy ambience.
Another Arquitectonica special feature is a glass atrium floating up above the stairwell spanning the entire width of the home. All the natural light just floods through the entire space. More on the atrium and stairwell keep looking you won't be disappointed.
The lavish living room. High ceilings and natural light abound. The walls are ideal for artwork or a media station if you prefer. The large windows are paneled for more dimension, and a glass door opens out to a step out balcony that leads down to your spacious backyard.
Recently remodeled kitchen introduces an open design lounge area where you chit-chat with friends and loved ones while you cook. Alternatively, the kitchen has enough room to allow for a sizable dining table for eating right where you cook. All new cabinets, countertops, and appliances including a Sub-Zero fridge. Tile floors make for easy cleanup!
Lounge area off the kitchen great for entertaining guests during dinner parties. Open and airy with a large window looking out over the luxurious neighborhood walking distance from most of Houston's best museums! 
This charming patio is guaranteed to keep pets happy is located just off the rear of the living room behind the enormous window; just a short flight of stairs down to a relaxing outdoor space making for a peaceful getaway from the stresses of daily life.
Front entry. Railing on the floating stairs parallels the colors from the exterior for symmetry and architectural cohesion - another detail by Arquitectonica. Square tiles continue the modern feel. Look at the cute little windows! Bright whites make the colors pop.
This photo shows just how central the stairwell is to the design of the home. The long atrium atop the gorgeous wood stairway spans across the entire complex illuminating the entire space with natural light. Entry on first level, up a half level to the living room on the east, up another half flight to the kitchen and lounge area, then up to the top level where you'll find the primary and secondary bedrooms and their corresponding baths.
The awe-inspiring skylight spanning the entire width of the home over the stairwell, just one more of the incredible details by the award winning architecture firm responsible for the design of the home.
Landing at the top of the stairs. Note the square block windows all the way up the length of the stairway making for a brilliant accent throughout the home both inside and out. The ergonomic yellow railings running from the first floor to the top give a secure but open feel and add to the floating stair effect.
Located just off the entryway as you step into the home is a walk-in utility room. Double doors to the left offer lots of storage.
A fireplace brings a cozy feel to the modern space. Imagine winters here: hot cocoa by the fire, a holiday movie—the perfect world! The bordering wall breaks up the spaces seamlessly, yet allows for light to pass through. Note the triad of miniature windows at the top, the kind of idiosyncratic details you will not find anywhere else.
A massive wall of windows allows lots of natural light into the living space more than large enough for a living and dining space combined. The door in the center of the photo opens to a short set of stairs that leads down to the backyard giving the effect of floating above your outdoor space. If you're an art lover there are tall walls for art everywhere!
Hardwoods gleam in the light. There is room for a myriad of furniture; with space like this, opportunities are endless. Shades can be lowered for privacy or movie-watching!
A closer look at the island. Each gray panel is actually a drawer for extra storage. Light wood countertops match the flooring from the first level—another artistic detail that makes this home so special. Just outside the entryway is a landing that leads over to the powder room or just down a half level to the living/dining area.
The island features a large chef’s sink and a wide selection of drawers. An electric stove keeps things mess-free and modern. The little windows brighten the counters. Note the cool, vertical one—dimension, dimension, dimension! Arquitetonica leaves its stamp everywhere!
Outdoor patio. Matching the wooden fence, wooden steps establish a modern yet natural vibe. String some lights around the tree for nighttime ambience! Room for a grill and seating area for atmospheric outdoor dinners!
Bright whites make everything feel clean and expensive. Minimalism at its finest!
Opulent office or second bedroom. Glass sliding doors open up to a luxurious balcony, featuring wonderful views of the neighborhood; prop them open for a fresh breeze in the spring; working from home has never been so fun! Natural light flows in and bounces off the hardwoods. Creativity can roam free with space like this.
Another angle of the office. Symmetry permeates through floors; the triple window design makes yet another appearance! The light, joyous theme will increase productivity during the daytime.
The balcony located on the top level. Dynamic tile spices up the space, along with the pop of red! The formation of the roof provides the perfect amount of shade—you can catch some rays without being blinded by the light. The greenery stands out against the white stucco.
The stunning primary bedroom. The walls melt into the ceiling for an infinitely high look. Plenty of space for a king bed and supplemental furniture. The light wood continues here for that elegant feel everyone so desires. A large window brings in natural light. 
Primary bedroom is large enough to have a lounging area! This home is just made for relaxing from lazing in the primary bedroom to allowing your guest to unwind on the kitchen while you cook them a nice home cooked meal. Again notice the volume in this room with the dramatically vaulted ceiling reaching a height of 16' or more!
En suite primary bath. Like the powder room, black hardware and bright whites continue here. The floating vanity features lots of storage. Mirror is well-lit for successful primping.
A closer look at the primary shower. The design mirrors that of the other bath, continuing the cohesive feel. Melt your worries away under the indoor rainfall!
The rain shower in the guest bath. A slim, detachable sprayer sits to the side for extra rinsing options! Vertical subway tiles add height to the room, and a sliding glass door keeps everything modern.Arquitectonica award winning design in the heart of the museum district.
