Arcadia is home to many great ranch homes. Many of these homes were built with many small rooms and areas divided by walls, doors and hallways.
In this project we took it upon ourselves to eliminate all these small compartments to create a great room in the center of the home.
In addition, we constructed a room-addition to include a parent’s suite on the opposite side of the great room so it will have the privacy our clients wished to have.
As part of the structural changes, we found that we need to completely redesign the back portion of the roof line to be higher and more unformal.
This gave us an opportunity to create a 10' ceiling for the proposed kitchen.
The extra space allowed us to build a second row of upper cabinets with some glass doors for showcasing our clients china collection.
The design is very traditional / traditional in nature.
Lots of neutral colors with white tones dominating the space.
The main contrast and addition of warmth were the hickory floors that added the much-needed contrast to the quick and cooler white tones.
