Whenever the words "a place in the country" are uttered the usual reaction is to think of a large rural house with a long drive leading up to manicured lawns and finely cut hedgerows, of course, that is Jane Austin and this the real world, where most people have to make do. However, making do, does not have to mean going without, take this small country cottage for instance, it is located on the Isle of Wight, which is along the southern coast of England. The building is nothing more than a summerhouse, which is a posh name for a shed. Yet this place has style and feeling, sure, not everyone can have the lakeside location, but the building is within the reach of most people. As for the decor, what grabs the attention is the simplicity of pastel shades and a minimum of furniture that makes the most of the space that is available without overcrowding the limited floor space, it is truly a place in the country, where relaxation is the order of the day.

Here is one of the most inviting modern homes I have seen in a while located in Cadiz, Spain and designed by A-cero Architects. You better wipe off your feet before you enter the SotoGrande that sports one of the most all white interior designs around nicely accented with a few splashes of color for depth and dimension. The designers must have intended for the layout to be used for serious entertaining as the SotoGrande sports an ample roof top lounge, large size swimming pool and pool side bar and lounge area, as well as balconies and patios for quite a few guests. A-cero Architects also develops multi-family dwellings with an equally forward thinking design you can see here.
