Earthy colors used work well with the walls of windows showing foliage from outside while maintaing a simple elegance. Use of an aqua accent color captures the feel of the water view while giving this family room a warm and dramatic feel. Photography by Robert Brantley.

Located in the Langley Fork Historic District in McLean, Virginia, this residence was designed to speak to the formal massing seen in the existing neighborhood fabric of stately traditional homes. The simplicity and clean lines of the stucco and limestone façade blends harmoniously with its surroundings. Traditional forms, interjected with modern twists, create a tension that carries throughout the design, creating a home that feels warm and familiar while clean and distilled at the same time.
