Schwartz and Architecture

http://www.schwartzandarchitecture.com

The most noteworthy quality of this suburban home was its dramatic site overlooking a wide- open hillside. The interior spaces, however, did little to engage with this expansive view. Our project corrects these deficits, lifting the height of the space over the kitchen and dining rooms and lining the rear facade with a series of 9' high doors, opening to the deck and the hillside beyond.

Schwartz and Architecture Thank you. It is exterior siding painted in Benjamin Moore Adagio or Sterling Grey I believe.

A cool/warm relationship is always a natural pairing. Especially in the company of neutrals, cool/warm tones separate elements effectively.

Counter

added by Walden Homes to What is a Feature Wall and Where does it Make Sense to Have One? (4 weeks ago)

This feature wall in a modern space acts as both a back wall for kitchen cabinetry, as well as an accent wall on the reverse. It surely adds a design appeal to what would otherwise be a plain, non-utilized wall.
