This three-story oak staircase features horizontal clear acrylic rods instead of traditional balusters. The acrylic provides impact resistance comparable to glass while maintaining unobstructed sightlines between floors. The horizontal orientation of the railing draws the eye up the stairs. 1976-2025 © Century Stair Company

Builder: Brad DeHaan Homes Photographer: Brad Gillette Every day feels like a celebration in this stylish design that features a main level floor plan perfect for both entertaining and convenient one-level living. The distinctive transitional exterior welcomes friends and family with interesting peaked rooflines, stone pillars, stucco details and a symmetrical bank of windows. A three-car garage and custom details throughout give this compact home the appeal and amenities of a much-larger design and are a nod to the Craftsman and Mediterranean designs that influenced this updated architectural gem. A custom wood entry with sidelights match the triple transom windows featured throughout the house and echo the trim and features seen in the spacious three-car garage. While concentrated on one main floor and a lower level, there is no shortage of living and entertaining space inside. The main level includes more than 2,100 square feet, with a roomy 31 by 18-foot living room and kitchen combination off the central foyer that’s perfect for hosting parties or family holidays. The left side of the floor plan includes a 10 by 14-foot dining room, a laundry and a guest bedroom with bath. To the right is the more private spaces, with a relaxing 11 by 10-foot study/office which leads to the master suite featuring a master bath, closet and 13 by 13-foot sleeping area with an attractive peaked ceiling. The walkout lower level offers another 1,500 square feet of living space, with a large family room, three additional family bedrooms and a shared bath.

George Sexton Associates provided lighting design and focusing services to the interior spaces and roof terrace of this NYC residence. A recessed slot with tracks provided a flexible lighting solution for showcasing the owner’s vast art collection. GSA collaborated with Glasbau Hahn to design and coordinate four museum grade vitrines. Wallgrazing luminaires where strategically located and integrated into the architecture to provide lighting for a series of detailed reliefs. Millwork was fitted with integrated lighting that is activated with door movement. Integrated lighting was also used under shelves and in closets.
