10 years after the completion of the apartment tenant improvement in the J. Carroll building, the owner approached Isaman Design to work on the design and permitting for a private basketball court located on the second floor adjacent to the residential space. With private stair access from the parking lot, and interior connection to the main living area, it functions completely independently from the business operations in the rest of the building. The signature red storefront and contemporary corrugated metal siding give the addition an eye-catching pop, separating it from the rest of the CMU structure while still maintaining a cohesive aesthetic relationship. The interior is finished out to an extremely high level with fun signage and neon lighting. There is also a comfy courtside lounge with a sliding glass door that enables spectators to be involved in the action from the sidelines. We look forward to working on more commercial infill projects in the future!

Conceived of as a C-shaped house with a small private courtyard and a large private rear yard, this new house maximizes the floor area available to build on this smaller Palo Alto lot. An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) integrated into the main structure gave a floor area bonus. For now, it will be used for visiting relatives. One challenge of this design was keeping a low profile and proportional design while still meeting the FEMA flood plain requirement that the finished floor start about 3′ above grade. The new house has four bedrooms (including the attached ADU), a separate family room with a window seat, a music room, a prayer room, and a large living space that opens to the private small courtyard as well as a large covered patio at the rear. Mature trees around the perimeter of the lot were preserved, and new ones planted, for private indoor-outdoor living.

Photographer: Steven Paul Whitsitt ALLENTOWN CHARMER - Designed by George Siwy of Artisan Kitchens and Baths This unique home located in the historical Allentown area of Buffalo, was purchased by two busy professionals who had a dream to bring back this historical mansion to its original glory and add a modernized kitchen to its design. The owners with their passion for Architecture and their love of cooking and entertaining hired George Siwy of Artisan Kitchens & Baths at Appliance Associates to make this dream a reality. The project started with the removal of a load bearing wall that structurally supported two stories above. The project called for a structural engineer to design the right size beam that can be supported by two columns that were built flush into the walls to give the space a more open feel. George Suggested in bringing in the homes architectural elements by choosing materials and details that were historic to the era of the home. Such details consist of the inset cabinet doors and its recessed panel and molding details, which relate to the quarter sawn oak stair case existing and wainscoting panel details found throughout the first floor of the home. The perimeter cabinetry in the kitchen consist of a maple wood species with a reversed raised panel door style painted white. The island and bar cabinetry consist of a wood species quarter sawn oak stained in an onyx color to relate to a historic cast iron stove inserted into a fireplace which is all original to the home. The imperfect glass seen on either side of the mullion glass windows, which are original to the home, is repeated within the design of the hutch and bar areas with a “seeded glass” material. The natural countertop materials chosen for this project were seen in the early 20th century era homes, such as Carrera marble which was used in the island and bar areas as well as the Soapstone material used for the perimeter cabinetry. The well thought out design has made the homeowners dreams a reality, with a kitchen that relates well to its existing architectural elements and brought up to date with modern conveniences of today. Designer: George Siwy Special Features: Glass hutch cabinetry with wainscoting, large bar area with beverage center and prep sink, expanded island with seating for four. Cabinetry: Medallion Gold / Door Style: Bayside Countertop: Soapstone and Carrera Marble Kohler: Stages Sink Elkay: Avado Bar Sink Wolf: Range top, Wall Oven, and Microwave Drawers Thermador: Refrigerator / Freezer
