The black within the stems creates a synergy with the sleek black architecture , and blends the contrasting white and black together with the grey tone from the Chinese ink. The absence of a frame forces the onlooker to distinguish a difference between the foreground and a background, giving an added distance. Great choice.

The window seat is a detail that will never go away because it works. Notice the absence of base trim on the top of this window seat. Not simple to do, but the cleanest way.

The new entry benefits from a raised ceiling, open floor plan and new solid wood front doors with transom window. Hardwood floors achieve an natural aged look with the absence of traditional polyurethane finish. Photo: Paul Dyer Photography

The drawers and door front of the custom teak vanity were scaled to the proportions of the Golden Rectangle to create a better scale and balance for the unit. The mirror was extended wall-to-wall and all the way to the ceiling. The absence of clutter from extraneous hardware make the bathroom feel larger. James C Schell

An added benefit, while removing the driveway next to the house, it provided less thermal gain against the house from the new absence of the concrete driveway being removed.
