You can have it all – stairs to upstairs and long views downstairs – just choose riserless stairs, as seen in this individualistic Manhattan townhouse 

Almost every room in this coastal home connects with the scenery – this bedroom has glass sliders trained on the living spaces with the blue of the ocean beyond

This kitchen is to the side of an expansive, open-plan living space – an American white oak frame underpins the cuboid island's leading surfaces

Fisher + Paykel fridge drawers optimise both cold storage and accessibility in this well considered kitchen, part of the designer's own home

Opened up for fun, swimming and sunshine by a modernising renovation at the back, at the front this home retains a demure red brick face

This renovation delineates old values from new work – as part of this, the existing bare staircase is in part retained with a modern perforated zinc stair starting 95cm above

This crisp and architectural main family bathroom's chunky tile-clad blade walls divide vanity, toilet and shower zones

Here, the pool and pool house spaces are in proportion with the sizeable home – just one aspect of marrying a new pool to an 1880s residence

For this home that celebrates wood indoors and out, the central courtyard is sheltered by the bedroom wing on the left and living pavilion to the right
