This unique city-home is designed with a center entry, flanked by formal living and dining rooms on either side. An expansive gourmet kitchen / great room spans the rear of the main floor, opening onto a terraced outdoor space comprised of more than 700SF. The home also boasts an open, four-story staircase flooded with natural, southern light, as well as a lower level family room, four bedrooms (including two en-suite) on the second floor, and an additional two bedrooms and study on the third floor. A spacious, 500SF roof deck is accessible from the top of the staircase, providing additional outdoor space for play and entertainment. Due to the location and shape of the site, there is a 2-car, heated garage under the house, providing direct entry from the garage into the lower level mudroom. Two additional off-street parking spots are also provided in the covered driveway leading to the garage. Designed with family living in mind, the home has also been designed for entertaining and to embrace life's creature comforts. Pre-wired with HD Video, Audio and comprehensive low-voltage services, the home is able to accommodate and distribute any low voltage services requested by the homeowner. This home was pre-sold during construction. Steve Hall, Hedrich Blessing

This study/home office is a vibrant reflection of Santa Fe style living, where work, art, and heritage come together. Key highlights: Exposed vigas with skylight: the wooden beams and natural light connect the room to Southwestern architectural tradition. Built-in shelves: painted in warm tones and filled with books, folk art, and collectibles, turning storage into storytelling. Handcrafted wooden desk: rustic yet elegant, grounding the workspace with artisanal craftsmanship. Terracotta tile flooring with bold rug: layering textures and colors that add warmth and visual depth. Cultural personality: from woven textiles to religious icons and sculptures, the room embodies a lived-in authenticity and celebration of heritage. This space perfectly balances function and soul — practical as a study, yet alive with personal history and regional artistry. Wendy McEahern

This fun home office is for the entire family with its convenient location just off the kitchen. The white built-in cabinetry pops off the grey walls painted in Benjamin Moore 2121-20 Steel Wool. The colorful area rug from CB2 keeps the space playful and fun. The glass barn door allows for privacy when needed.

This beautiful Potomac Home was greatly damaged by fire, then was fully restored by our team with a master suite addition to one side and a family room and garage addition to the other. Great pains were taken by the owners to match the brick all the way.

This addition incorporates a great deal of symmetry as reflected in the skylights, lighting, closet layouts and window placement. The main goal for the owners of this 1926 house was an addition to gain more closet space near their main floor master bedroom. The opening from the sitting room to the addition was originally an exterior window that we widened. New built-in closets in the addition are easily accessed from the master bedroom at the end of the addition. In assessing the feasibility of the project, the first thing the designer did was to check the zoning regulations. After a thorough study, it was determined that a 7-foot side addition was possible. The existing house floors were not level. We replaced and sistered many joists as they had deteriorated over the 93 year age of the house. New white oak flooring covers both the addition and the affected sitting room and master bedroom.

Double Hung windows flood the office with light during the day while the wood burning fireplace with marble hearth and sur-round add elegance to the room. Shaker style cabinetry with a Moody Blue finish also adds a royal feel.

This study addition included a reclaimed brick tile floor, custom built-in cabinetry with walls in a mono chromatic color scheme and a stained wood front entry door.
