This hillside walkout house plan showcases Craftsman charm in a stunning facade through stone and siding and a triplet of arches over the front porch. Inside this house plan, two levels of well-positioned rooms promote privacy and an open layout. The spacious great room accesses both a rear porch and the dining room, and features a fireplace, built-in shelves and cathedral ceiling. Tray ceilings crown the dining room, master bedroom and master bath for additional interest. Nothing short of elegant, the master suite includes two walk-in closets, as well as dual sinks and a separate shower and tub. The versatile bedroom/study is perfect for overnight guests, as it rests on the other side of the home and includes an adjacent full bath. The lower level of this house plan consists of two bedrooms, each with a private bath, and a family room with wet bar and patio access. Perfect for growing children or live-in relatives, the basement accommodates expansion.

Upon first entering this early 1900s North Asheville home, Sean Perry felt as if he’d stepped back in time. And though it needed a full restoration — addressing multiple structural issues, as well as outdated electrical, plumbing, gas and insulation systems — maintaining the home’s historical integrity was at the forefront of this massive (and ultimately striking) undertaking. With a goal of updating the home for modern living, The Hands of Sean Perry Co. rebuilt the original Porte Cochere to accommodate today’s vehicles. Then, the team installed a pool and stone deck in the backyard, giving the homeowners and their children a place to relax and enjoy sunny summer afternoons. Bringing even more light to the project, the crew relocated the home’s kitchen to its sunniest room, directly next to the veranda, drawing better connections between dining and entertaining. In addition to these big changes, every room, including the basement, received updates and renovations — the dining room, kitchen, mudroom, living room, three full- and two half-bathrooms, four bedrooms, two office rooms and a finished attic space. Keeping as many details true to the home’s historic character as possible, the team even restored the original heart pine and oak floors, as well as its central staircase.

Retaining all the character of a 1923 whimsical while expanding to meet the needs of an active family of five. This classic and timeless transformation strikes a beautiful balance between the charm of the existing home and the opportunities to realize something custom. First, we reclaimed the attached one-car garage for a much-needed command central kitchen - organized in zones for cooking, dining, gathering, scheduling, homework and entertaining. With a devotion to design, a stunning, custom, nickel Ann Morris pot rack was chosen as a focal point, appliances were concealed with painted, raised-panel cabinetry and finishes like white quartzite countertops, white fireclay sinks and dark stained floors added just the right amount of light and color. Outside the bustle of the family space, the previous kitchen became a butler’s pantry and richly-paneled library for reading, relaxing and enjoying cigars. The addition of a mud room, family room, and a wonderful space we lovingly call “The Jewel Room” for its heightened luxurious detail, completed the perfect remodel – opening up new space for the busy children, while providing comfortable respites for their happy parents.

We were excited when the homeowners of this project approached us to help them with their whole house remodel as this is a historic preservation project. The historical society has approved this remodel. As part of that distinction we had to honor the original look of the home; keeping the façade updated but intact. For example the doors and windows are new but they were made as replicas to the originals. The homeowners were relocating from the Inland Empire to be closer to their daughter and grandchildren. One of their requests was additional living space. In order to achieve this we added a second story to the home while ensuring that it was in character with the original structure. The interior of the home is all new. It features all new plumbing, electrical and HVAC. Although the home is a Spanish Revival the homeowners style on the interior of the home is very traditional. The project features a home gym as it is important to the homeowners to stay healthy and fit. The kitchen / great room was designed so that the homewoners could spend time with their daughter and her children. The home features two master bedroom suites. One is upstairs and the other one is down stairs. The homeowners prefer to use the downstairs version as they are not forced to use the stairs. They have left the upstairs master suite as a guest suite.

All of the windows and doors were replicated to match the original styling of the house. The roof is a combination of Gable and Hip and is made of red clay tile. The arched door and windows are typical of Spanish Revival. The home also features a Juliette Balcony and window. Library / Living Room: The library offers Pocket Doors and custom bookcases. Powder Room: This powder room has a black toilet and Herringbone travertine. Kitchen: This kitchen was designed for someone who likes to cook! It features a Pot Filler, a peninsula and an island, a prep sink in the island, and cookbook storage on the end of the peninsula. The homeowners opted for a mix of stainless and paneled appliances. Although they have a formal dining room they wanted a casual breakfast area to enjoy informal meals with their grandchildren. The kitchen also utilizes a mix of recessed lighting and pendant lights. A wine refrigerator and outlets conveniently located on the island and around the backsplash are the modern updates that were important to the homeowners. Master bath: The master bath enjoys both a soaking tub and a large shower with body sprayers and hand held. For privacy, the bidet was placed in a water closet next to the shower. There is plenty of counter space in this bathroom which even includes a makeup table. Staircase: The staircase features a decorative niche Upstairs master suite: The upstairs master suite features the Juliette balcony Outside: Wanting to take advantage of southern California living the homeowners requested an outdoor kitchen complete with retractable awning. The fountain and lounging furniture keep it light. Home gym: This gym comes completed with rubberized floor covering and dedicated bathroom. It also features its own HVAC system and wall mounted TV.

We recently completed construction on this backyard in Chino! The rock swimming pool and spa was designed to fit around the existing canary date palm that was already large and mature. (side note: we can also install large canary date palms in at your house, just like this one) With beautifully detailed rocks around the entire pool, the main focus is the large waterfall and slide, which also has a side water feature and bubblers below on a small reef. The giant 20’ wide lounging area or reef step provides ample room for lounge chairs or small children to play. The spa features a stand up well with jets all around you for ultimate relaxation. Around the pool, the hardscape follows the shape of the pool along the grass line. Along the back wall there is tasteful landscaping that will mature in the years to come and look fantastic. In addition to the pool, masonry and landscaping, we also designed and constructed a rock fire pit and large built in BBQ. This is a large backyard and is now ready for entertaining!

Humble and unassuming, this small cottage was built in 1960 for one of the children of the adjacent mansions. This well sited two bedroom cape is nestled into the landscape on a small brook. The owners a young couple with two little girls called us about expanding their screened porch to take advantage of this feature. The clients shifted their priorities when the existing roof began to leak and the area of the screened porch was deemed to require NJDEP review and approval. When asked to help with replacing the roof, we took a chance and sketched out the possibilities for expanding and reshaping the roof of the home while maintaining the existing ridge beam to create a master suite with private bathroom and walk in closet from the one large existing master bedroom and two additional bedrooms and a home office from the other bedroom. The design elements like deeper overhangs, the double brackets and the curving walls from the gable into the center shed roof help create an animated façade with shade and shadow. The house maintains its quiet presence on the block…it has a new sense of pride on the block as the AIA NJ NS Gold Medal Winner for design Excellence!

In the front of the home, we made recommend addition contouring to increase the curb appeal and views of the home from the road. The backyard featured a multi-level walkout basement which created unique terraced entertaining spaces. From the covered patio space, we incorporated a large boulder wall to create extra flat usable lawn space for the kids to play. Our design team created a unique swimming pool area mid-level between the basement and the first-floor covered patio. The homeowner requested a small swimming pool with a larger entertaining space around it. The space includes a circular gas firepit surrounded a sitting wall and pillars. The customer chose a natural look by selecting Lampus Desert Blend Country Stone pillars. The homeowner wanted to incorporate a spa into the entertaining space without obstructing the view from the upper level space and pool area. Our design team solved this by integrating the spa into the landscape surrounded by plantings and boulders to mask the look of the bulky spa. The pergola above the spa with a custom drapery created an elegant look and provided a nice cover to incorporate lighting for evening enjoyment.

For the guest bathroom, Trina envisioned a fresh, updated look with practical features for her children. The existing toilet and flooring were retained, while the shower and vanity areas underwent a complete makeover. The old shower and vanity were completely removed to facilitate the new layout. A larger Kohler soaking tub with matte black trim and fixtures was installed, along with white porcelain tiles for the shower walls. Delta Stryke fixtures in matte black, including a multifunction showerhead and dual-function valve, were chosen for consistency with the primary bathroom. Sollid Designer Series cabinets in Napa Honey and Jeffrey Alexander matte black handles were used for the vanity, paired with Montreal quartz countertops. The vanity area featured the modern Delta Stryke faucets, Kohler medicine cabinets as mirrors for additional storage, and two sleek vanity lights. Delta Stryke accessories, including towel bars, rings, and a toilet paper holder, were added to cohesively finish the look.

Mudroom - transitional multicolored floor mudroom idea in Houston with gray walls

Our goal with this project was to combine a cramped kitchen and small dining room into an airy, open kitchen which serves many functions for this busy couple with young children. A central island provides plenty of space for food prep, school projects as well as everyday family dinners. We rearranged the large front room to create both an intimate conversation area and a more formal dining area. As the main floor lacked a powder room and closet for coats and boots, we annexed an unused portion of the house's airshaft to create both. The addition also features a skylight which along with the enlarged rear window, floods the new kitchen with sunshine. The richly cool palette of grays and white offers a soothing backdrop in what has become the hub of this family's colorful life...

Double sinks, a large open vanity, and classic white subway tile in 3x6's make the kid's bathroom bright and functional. Again, the homeowner chose gray grout for aesthetic and practical reasons. Modern farmhouse touches continue throughout this room tying it to the rest of the house.

Situated on Oak Park's Kenilworth Avene, this historic EE Roberts home housed a servant's kitchen and back billiard's room. The home's new stewards, a young family with 4 children, needed a larger kitchen with great-room with views to the yard and new mudroom arrival space. We restructured the back of the home with an open floor plan connecting and expanding the exisitng kitchen and billiard room into one space. This plan required careful design and engineering to remove a 3 story fireplace that once divided the spaces (see animation). On the exterior a mudroom addition to the home's north side was designed to complement the original historic home form and detail. On the interior our approach material utilized the warm tones of oak, beamed ceilings, repurposed brass light fixtures and leaded glass windows to create a warm and inviting space for a family nestled within a historic home that is true to its past. Elements was well fitted for this complex historic renovation which utilized our precise design approach, close collaboration with the builder, experience working with villages in historic settings.

This home for a family of five young children is located on two acres in Chicago's North Shore. The house has been designed to be open, flexible, and pre-weathered, with a European cottage feel. The first floor has been completely renovated to create a space that is perfect for family gatherings and entertaining friends. Reclaimed materials, such as French terra cotta tile flooring, white oak wood beams, and salvage mushroom palette wood planks for the ceiling, have been used throughout the main floor rooms. The family room features a new fireplace made from brick salvaged from the original home. The master bath is a spa-like retreat for parents, with reclaimed wood beams used to create the counter of the vanity, mixed with the clean lines of the sinks, faucets, and tub. The addition of three large dormers has transformed the old, musty attic into three bedrooms, two baths, and a bright, inspiring homework area for the kids.
