Toronto Based Superkül Architects Frames Bowen Island's Natural Beauty
Situated in a supremely private and remote spot with spectacular views and scenery from every room, this house has a stylish and modern sensibility along with great respect for nature. With a seamless integration into the lush and rugged landscape, the Modern Beach House on Bowen Island is contemporary living at its best.
Nestled onto the island with dazzling views of the Salish Sea and nearby Vancouver Island, this home was meant to connect with nature without foregoing comfort and sophistication.
Custom built by renowned Canadian architecture firm superkül inc, the home is both contemporary and comfortable with an indoor-outdoor design that allows guests to relax in total privacy and natural beauty.
The sleek monochromatic interiors are lined with walls of glass and nine-foot slide away wooden doors that open to a deck that appears to float above the Douglas Fir canopy. Slate stone floors, cool white interiors and soaring fourteen-foot high ceilings, provide a spacious yet intimate living space alongside a cozy two-sided fireplace.
Furnished with simple, contemporary decor, whimsical and unique art pieces with glass walls in every room, the effect creates a modern space that is sophisticated and minimalist but relaxed and inviting.
The kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art appliances with an adjacent dining area that seats six. With three uniquely designed bedrooms and two baths, the home sleeps up to six and each is equipped with luxurious Elite comfort queen beds and linens.
The glass-walled teak deck is the spot to lounge, dine and enjoy the magnificent scenery and comes equipped with a hot tub to complete the experience.
With your own private beach and mooring dock, the home remains totally secluded from neighboring views and is designed to be a peaceful and unforgettable hideaway.
