Modern 37 is a contemporary modern house in Venice shaped by sculptural architecture rather than a conventional residential profile. As an event venue, it brings together flowing exterior panels, a private pool courtyard and broad openings that connect the chef’s kitchen, living areas and furnished patio. The setting is well suited to product launches that benefit from a sculptural modern environment, corporate receptions that move between indoors and out, and private dinners centered on the kitchen and dining area.
Flowing panels wrap the street facade and continue around the pool courtyard, giving arrival a strong modern identity. Black lines travel across curved white cladding and converge around a recessed garage faced with horizontal wood slats, while a wide concrete drive and deep overhang add depth at the front of the house. After dark, ground lights model the curves and warm the wood without losing the graphic pattern. A pivoting wood entry door opens to a long concrete-floored corridor, shifting from expressive exterior design to a restrained interior.
Inside, the palette settles into cool white, gray and charcoal. The chef’s kitchen runs along a long room with a white island, integrated sink and cooktop, dark full-height cabinetry and built-in appliances. A retractable glass wall opens directly to the pool, connecting the kitchen to the courtyard, while a live-edge wood table and dimensional white feature wall bring texture to the dining area. The adjoining living room adds a high ceiling, clerestory glazing and large black-framed doors facing the pool; skylights brighten the white stair, with recessed fixtures and linear ceiling lights maintaining even illumination when the natural light changes.
A large rectangular pool anchors the enclosed courtyard, with an integrated raised spa at one end and narrow strips of lawn along the water. The house wraps the space on multiple sides, creating long sightlines between the kitchen, living room and covered seating area. Fully opened glass walls remove much of the visual boundary between interiors and courtyard, and the furnished patio beneath a low charcoal ceiling frames the brighter outdoor space. Beyond the rear volume, a separate large lawn offers a simpler green setting bordered by mature trees and hedges, with concrete paths and stepping pads linking the outdoor zones.
