Search results for "Challenging task" in Home Design Ideas

Conceived more similar to a loft type space rather than a traditional single family home, the homeowner was seeking to challenge a normal arrangement of rooms in favor of spaces that are dynamic in all 3 dimensions, interact with the yard, and capture the movement of light and air.
As an artist that explores the beauty of natural objects and scenes, she tasked us with creating a building that was not precious - one that explores the essence of its raw building materials and is not afraid of expressing them as finished.
We designed opportunities for kinetic fixtures, many built by the homeowner, to allow flexibility and movement.
The result is a building that compliments the casual artistic lifestyle of the occupant as part home, part work space, part gallery. The spaces are interactive, contemplative, and fun.
More details to come.

One of the most challenging projects we completed in 2020 was a bathroom remodel in Redondo Beach. The homeowners wanted their bathroom to be eco-friendly and more importantly, all materials and products to be American made. They wanted to support local, which proved to be a difficult task but one we were able to accomplish. Every detail from the custom woodwork from Hefford Designs, custom mirrors from Electric Mirror, to the grab bars, towel bars, and toilet paper holders were all american made products.

This modern walk-out ranch in the beautiful surround of Boulder, Colorado was challenging due to the fact that the homeowners lived in New York during the project. We were given the task of furnishing the entire 5500 square foot space as well as updating carpeting, lighting and paint. Additionally we transformed a bedroom into a home gym, added a patio and fire pit and furnished four outdoor living spaces. The end result is beautiful and the clients were incredibly open to our design ideas.

This propery is situated on the south side of Centre Island at the edge of an oak and ash woodlands. orignally, it was three properties having one house and various out buildings. topographically, it more or less continually sloped to the water. Our task was to creat a series of terraces that were to house various functions such as the main house and forecourt, cottage, boat house and utility barns.
The immediate landscape around the main house was largely masonry terraces and flower gardens. The outer landscape was comprised of heavily planted trails and intimate open spaces for the client to preamble through. As the site was largely an oak and ash woods infested with Norway maple and japanese honey suckle we essentially started with tall trees and open ground. Our planting intent was to introduce a variety of understory tree and a heavy shrub and herbaceous layer with an emphisis on planting native material. As a result the feel of the property is one of graciousness with a challenge to explore.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT:
SoFi is home to one of our latest projects: Portofino. The sought-after South Beach location, also known as South of Fifth, is a fantastic blend of Art Deco buildings, contemporary residential architecture, and gleaming high rises.
TASK:
Our clients wanted a sophisticated design and tasked us with completely gutting and transforming their 2700 square foot space.
SCOPE:
Our team remodeled the kitchen, dining room, living room, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms. We installed wood floors in the bedrooms and white marble in the common areas. The clients were after a sophisticated space, so we used a clean color palette with accents of oak and lots of wood wall paneling. Britto Charette also designed custom headboards, feature walls, and unique storage solutions that will help our clients really maximize the use of their space.
CHALLENGE:
Our team loves a challenge and we found a fun one in Portofino: our clients are tall but the ceilings are short. What to do? With the help of our fantastic construction specialists, we were able to raise the ceilings, providing the perfect solution for our clients.

This client approached us with a request to remodel their home to better accommodate their
needs related to a recent amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis, also known as Lou
Gehrig’s disease–a condition that can lead to various physical challenges, including mobility
issues, fatigue, and diffi culty with manual tasks. Recognizing the impact of these challenges on
daily living, the client sought our expertise to make their home more accessible and functional.
The project involved a signifi cant redesign of their three-story home, including the installation
of an elevator to provide seamless access across all fl oors, and a complete remodel of the
Primary Bathroom and Bedroom to enhance usability and comfort. This redesign was driven by
the objective to support the client’s independence and improve their quality of life. Knowing
that the client would receive assistance through the Veteran Affairs Special Adaptive Housing
Program, our Team needed to include additional documentation for this project.
