This custom home was artfully designed by the architects at Historical Concepts. The “Stemwinder Camp” home is located in the beautiful Balsam Mountain Preserve community. Balsam Mountain Preserve is a private, gated, mountain, golf and equestrian community in the western North Carolina Mountains. The details and design of the craftsman style cottage provide every room with a sunny and bright interior. Stemwinder Camp incorporates many detailed elements that help create a contemporary feel while still maintaining the craftsman style principles.

This amazing John’s Island custom home epitomizes Lowcountry living with a large front porch, backyard entertainment spaces, views of the intercoastal waterways and charming design elements that invite you into the space. With solid construction, Gable brackets, Jeld-Wen impact rated dark bronze vinyl windows, white Hardie siding, the homeowners are ready for any type of Coastal weather. The custom exterior details translate seamlessly into the interior of the home. Some of the high-end design choices include crown molding, shiplap, cable hand rails on the stairs, unique built-ins in the living room which are mimicked on the ceiling of the master, custom cedar barn doors, floating countertops made from solid hickory live edge wood, Carrera marble tile, electronic valve-controlled showers, and a shiplap kitchen hood. As entertainers, the homeowners embraced the concept of combining two living spaces into one, which was made possible by installing a PGT sliding door. These doors slide back into themselves, opening up the indoors to the outdoor deck space with fireplace. Guests also enjoy waterway views made possible by the Juliet balcony off the front bedroom of the home, and the very large man-cave under the home. Take a look at this amazing home designed in conjunction with Vinyet Architecture and interior styling by Polish Pop Design. Drone Photography & Video by Nick Holzworth at 5th Spark

Entryway - large mediterranean entryway idea in Orange County with white walls

Located on a tight corner lot, the design of this addition left one wall standing and built a new home around it. The home fits wonderfully into a neighborhood full of mature trees and front porches. We placed generous porches on both the front and back of the house to maximize the owners' use of the lot. There's even a balcony off of the master bedroom with planters for herbs and flowers. The kitchen, though compact, is a chef's dream. There are also windows placed behind the upper cabinets to create a backlighting effect during the day and bring more natural light into the space. Here's what the owner had to say about the project:

Staircase - transitional l-shaped staircase idea in New York

The site descends from the street and is privileged with dynamic natural views toward a creek below and beyond. To incorporate the existing landscape into the daily life of the residents, the house steps down to the natural topography. A continuous and jogging retaining wall from outside to inside embeds the structure below natural grade at the front with flush transitions at its rear facade. All indoor spaces open up to a central courtyard which terraces down to the tree canopy, creating a readily visible and occupiable transitional space between man-made and nature. The courtyard scheme is simplified by two wings representing common and private zones - connected by a glass dining “bridge." This transparent volume also visually connects the front yard to the courtyard, clearing for the prospect view, while maintaining a subdued street presence. The staircase acts as a vertical “knuckle,” mediating shifting wing angles while contrasting the predominant horizontality of the house. Crips materiality and detailing, deep roof overhangs, and the one-and-half story wall at the rear further enhance the connection between outdoors and indoors, providing nuanced natural lighting throughout and a meaningful framed procession through the property.
