Search results for "Adjacent cities" in Home Design Ideas

When your apartment boasts spectacular river and city views, you want this vista to be the star attraction. The best strategy for achieving this is employing a quiet, serene and monochromatic theme. Here it’s ¾” rift cut white oak with a natural finish throughout. Flat panel doors with beveled integral finger recesses reinforce the clean concept. White oak flooring adds to the calm environment.
One of the home’s studies is adjacent to the dining room, separated only by sliding smoked glass doors. The study can be closed off while entertaining, but the scenery is still within view. Bookcases lining opposite walls feature drawer storage on the bottom and 2” wide floor-to-ceiling stiles dividing the sections and contributing a prominent vertical element. 2” thick wood countertops match the 2” shelves that incorporate routed grooves in their undersides housing LED strips to illuminate the contents. On one wall is a suspended desktop that aligns with the countertops and provides a convenient computer station.
Furnishings wisely complement the monochromatic motif with upholstery, throw pillows, drapery and area rugs in shades of cream and beige. But the wooden legs, dining table and accent pieces deliver touches of contrast with their dark stained walnut finishes.

We are thrilled to introduce 612 Gravers Lane, a veritable ~jewelbox~ in an ideal walk-to everything Wyndmoor location. Originally built in 1900, this classic 20th century farmhouse was comprehensively renovated and expanded by Cherokee Construction in 1997, in the finest fashion, sparing no expense. Beautifully sited on a manageable .31 acres, the exquisite landscape plan was designed and installed by Gale Nurseries. The first floor features a brightly lit, gracious floor plan with coveted architectural details, millwork and voluminous ceilings. Enter a gracious center hall, formal living room and dining room to your left, cozy library your right. Gourmet kitchen and generous breakfast room with fireplace and butlers pantry. The adjacent family room and mudroom complete the scene. Upstairs, in addition to a spacious, light-filled master suite, two additional en suite bedrooms and laundry. The third floor offers an amazing guest suite, bath with sitting area and plenty of space for home office. Finished lower level, just waiting for gym and media room and an abundance of storage. 4 bedrooms/3.1 baths - Detached 2 car garage. Outside, beautifully designed trellises adorn a large flagstone terrace that will simply knock you out, creating an extremely private setting within walking distance to both Wyndmoor and Chestnut Hill villages and trains to Center City.

Our clients bought two adjacent rowhomes as investment properties, and we designed and completed a gut renovation of each property. This project includes a 3rd-floor addition and a rear addition across the back. This gut remodel creates contemporary living on the bustling 13th street corridor in the sought-after Columbia Heights neighborhood.
On the first-floor large French doors lead from the kitchen to the private rear wood deck, enabling indoor-outdoor living. Additionally, the main floor has a covered patio at the front entrance.
The third floor includes a roof deck for 3-season use with tall trees providing shade for DC summer nights. There is ample natural lighting throughout each property, often a challenge in rowhomes.
A new front entryway to the basement created with all new hardscaping and stairs features a patio and space for bike storage.

The Johnson Residence project, designed by Cowbell Designs, encompasses a comprehensive enhancement of the property to suit the client’s lifestyle and preferences. Here’s a description of the project’s features:
Garage Addition: A new garage was constructed adjacent to the existing one, equipped with larger doors to accommodate the client’s large trucks, which could not fit through the original garage doors.
Driveway Extension: The driveway was expanded in both width and length, now reaching the city road, with the necessary public works permitting obtained for this extension.
Front Porch Expansion: The front porch was extended with a newly designed roof and beam system, enhancing the view from the porch and from the interior window behind the porch area.
Pickleball Court: In the backyard, a pickleball court was designed and constructed, providing the clients, who are avid pickleball players, with a private space to enjoy their favorite sport.
These modifications have not only improved the functionality of the residence but also its aesthetic appeal and recreational value.

Designed for repeat clients, this Overland Park remodel focused on improving function, flow, and everyday livability across multiple spaces.
In the kitchen, the layout was refined to create a more open and efficient environment. An enlarged island now serves as a central hub for cooking, gathering, and daily use, while ceiling-height cabinetry maximizes storage and creates a clean, built-in aesthetic. New hardwood flooring ties the space together, adding warmth and continuity.
A key transformation involved reconfiguring the layout to better support storage needs. By relocating the laundry room door, a dedicated pantry was introduced, significantly improving organization and accessibility. The adjacent laundry room was also updated, along with the addition of custom cubbies to streamline daily routines.
For a bold contrast, the powder bath was reimagined as a moody, speakeasy-inspired space, bringing depth, character, and a memorable design moment to the home.
The result is a cohesive, thoughtfully redesigned interior that enhances how the family lives day to day, balancing function, storage, and distinctive style.

This stunning bathroom features a calming white, beige, and gray color palette. We mixed warm woods and organic textures with modern finishes to create the ultimate combination of tranquility and glamour. Originally a small 8 ½ x 11 bathroom (with a standard shower/tub combo), we were able to take some space from the hallway and adjacent closet to create a larger oasis, perfect for getting away from the hectic city lifestyle. A floating vanity makes the space seem larger than it is.
A square shaped freestanding tub is the main accent which gives this space a truly unique feel that our client’s love. The rich wooden shelves and stone accent wall add natural tranquility while the vessel sinks, artisan lighting, and large walk-in shower accentuate the high-end and refreshing feel of this design. This shower is complete with a steam, rain head, and a regular showerhead as well as a large niche and bench which makes it a great place to relax.

Our clients bought two adjacent rowhomes as investment properties, and we designed and completed a gut renovation of each property. Both homes have two units and near-identical floor plans; a 2-bedroom, 2 bath unit in the basement and a larger “primary” unit with 5 bedrooms and 3 ½ baths taking up the top three floors. This project includes a 3rd-floor addition and a rear addition across the back.
This gut remodel creates contemporary living on the bustling 13th street corridor in the sought-after Columbia Heights neighborhood. Light and airy finishes were used throughout.
The basement units include a kitchen as part of an open design concept with a long peninsula creating a galley-style layout with three pendant lights and bar counter seating. The uppers for the shaker style cabinets are white and the lowers are dark blue. The kitchens also feature a work sink with inserts to dry dishes on or prepare food.

The third floor offers an amazing guest suite, bath with sitting area and plenty of space for home office.
