Architecture firm BARBERMcMURRY have recently completed a new house in Knoxville, Tennessee, for a young couple, their son and their dog.
Having previously lived in a downtown loft, the home owners wanted a home that would reflect the open interior spaces and ample views that their previous loft had.

The house sits in within the Holston Hills neighborhood, on a lot that was once overgrown. The design of the house draws inspiration from some of the mid-century modern houses in the neighborhood.

Heading inside, the main living, dining and kitchen is open plan, with large floor-to-ceiling windows providing picture perfect views of Holston River, while white walls and furniture keep the space bright.

The master bedroom is located on the main floor of the home, with a wall of floating shelves surrounding a television. There’s also access to the patio that sits off to the side of the living room.

In the master bathroom, grey tiles have been used to create an accent wall, while a long vanity has dual sinks with an interesting design.

Wood covered stairs lead up to the second floor of the home, with vertical cables providing a safety railing for the open stairwell.

Upstairs, there’s a family room with views of the landscape. High ceilings keep the loft-like feeling that the owners wanted.

Off to the side of the family room is the son’s bedroom. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide views of the treetops, while a car inspired bed creates a sense of fun.
