Flagstones Blur the Line Between Indoors and Out in this Lafayette Modern Mediterranean

Earlier this summer, I wrote about how important easy access between inside and outside living spaces is to homeowners today.

859 Sibert Court offers this connection, and then takes it a step further by blurring that line even more by incorporating flagstone flooring throughout.

The result? A flexible combined space that feels as if 1+1 might, in fact, equal more than 2. The overall design impact is beautiful, unique, natural and durable.

Using this material comes with a real-life floor care upside: Flagstones require minimal upkeep since they are both stain and moisture resistant.

Want to soften the look? Add rugs in the bedrooms and other key spaces, just as you would with any other hard floor surface.

If you have a chance, stop by the open house on Sunday, September 22, from 1pm – 4pm.

This unique home is designed to be both classic in its Spanish design and modern in its inclusion of eco-friendly materials and design elements.  There isn’t another home quite like this one in Lafayette!

UPDATE 9/19/13: Good news about flagstone floors. I have received some additional feedback from readers about other benefits of using stone flooring:

For Pet-owners: “The floors are also awesome for people with pets… Wood and carpet get ruined by their claws and ‘accidents.’”
