The attractive floating counter is also functional for wheelchair accessibility but you wouldn't necessarily make that assumption when today's popular style leans more towards "open concept" design.

Type-Variant is an award winning home from multi-award winning Minneapolis architect Vincent James, built by Yerigan Construction around 1996. The popular assumption is that it is a shipping container home, but it is actually wood-framed, copper clad volumes, all varying in size, proportion, and natural light. This house includes interior and exterior stairs, ramps, and bridges for travel throughout.

Figuring out how to make a big kitchen work better — for a chef wanting to use her kitchen for both cooking classes and corporate entertaining — is what won Janice two design awards. A designer with Drury Design in the Chicago suburb of Glen Ellyn, Janice won first place in the large kitchen category in the NKBA competition for greater Chicagoland. The same project was also named by Trends magazine as one of its Top 50 kitchens for 2013-2014, the second straight year a Drury project has been so honored.
The cabinetry is from Grabill’s Benchmark line with an Olde Towne door style in maple and finished in Super White. Janice uses Grabill all the time, she said. “What we like most about them is their turnaround time. They have a very good product at a fair price. They have a great warranty.”
With the kind of detail involved in this kind of project, they are also “most helpful in double-checking everything to make sure everything fits the way I planned it. If they see any issues, if there are any questions, they don’t make assumptions. They call me and we work things out. They’re very flexible in how they work.”
This transitional style in its Super White finish from Grabill provides a lot of flexibility, explained Janice. “There’s a really pretty aqua color on the walls, but everything else is neutral, so the owner can put whatever accent color she wants with it and it will still work. So she can really change the look of the kitchen with just the paint color.”

The general assumption is that grids offer no room flexibility, no improvisation. So it is ironic that within this uncompromising linear pattern, there is a sense of freedom; the type of freedom afforded those who take unique chances with their décor. With simply elegant line work imbued with undercurrents of the Far East, our pattern The Grid is an exclamation of the liberty of good design.

Our assignment was to take a large traditional home in the French Eclectic style and update and renovate the interiors to reflect a more modern style. Many assume that modern furnishings only work in modern settings. This project proves that assumption to be wrong.
