The Baron drop-leaf table has a rectangular top in laminate, tempered glass or combined ceramic and glass. The legs and frame in are featured here in metal. The Baron table contains a handy mechanism that allows you to easily increase the surface area of your table top. The L'EAU chair, with a metal frame and techno-polymer shell, is stackable up to eight chairs high. A lightweight chair with a metal base and a colored and transparent shell, it has a strong visual impact due to its "water waves" motif. The techno-polymer seat features concentric waves similar to those of water, which expand outwards from the center of the seat.

The longing for values, for what is genuine is becoming ever greater in a digitized world in which networking and mechanisation are becoming overpowering. In our personal environment, this is reflected in the search for the elegantly simple: people want to be surrounded by things which communicate calm, clarity and concentration on the essential. In conjunction with VALAIS LEICHT developed the new planning concept EVO.The seamless transition from worktop to fronts is sensational: the virtually invisible worktop with its surrounding metal edge has a flush finish with the fronts and gives the kitchen an exceedingly puristic air. The material mix too makes the ensemble all the more exciting: structured genuine wood meets velvety matt lacquer, the warm tone of the wood meets the cooler air of the carbon grey – a skilful combination of contrasts, also essential in the new planning concept.

Creating music room and Te 'with bubbles in the glass of various thickness with water (the quantitatà varies from bubble to bubble to create a perfect acoustic) more aquatic plants, salon that lets you hear every little vibration, buyer Nobil Donna Venetian. The most complicated part was the calibration of the bubbles to give you the possibility of high-frequency sounds travel faster, while in the air would be dispersed before. A very important factor in the transmission of sound but, even more, in the acoustic perception. Sounds from the frequency similar (but not exactly the same), for example, generate a particular phenomenon, known as "beat" that alters in a fundamental way the perception of the sound. "Imagine a pond and the classic rock thrown into the water. If after the first stone they throw a second, this will generate concentric circles, which will interfere with those generated by the stone thrown to first." The visual analogy in this case is a simple way to explain that, as in the case of shock waves in the water, even in those scores takes place the exact same phenomenon. (When after about 4 months of starting work) (inspiration only for the bubbles taken from blog Fr.)

2010 NATIONAL NARI REGIONAL AWARD WINNER Project Scope The owners of this 7,000 square foot colonial in Oakton, Virginia, were seeking a multi-level Mediterranean-style indoor/outdoor living space off the back of their home. They turned to Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes for a design solution that would include a stone patio, a second-story deck, a screened-in porch and linking staircases. While the structure was designed primarily for family dining and entertaining, it also had to accommodate periodic social gatherings of one hundred guests or more. To meet these needs, the project would include a fully-equipped outdoor kitchen, several serving counters with permanent refrigeration, and well-delineated socializing and dining zones. The existing home’s setting offered several impressive assets the new outdoor living area was designed to exploit. The sprawling acreage features old stand trees, wooded paths and a private lake. Beautifully landscaped, it unfolds as an idyllic panorama that naturally draws people to the outdoors. Challenges Since the rear elevation was situated on a slope that drops away from the house, the Michael Nash team had to raise the grade two feet within in a 2,000 square foot area extending out from the back of the house. Infrastructure plans also called for a sophisticated drainage system that had to accommodate a whole series of water “runoff” considerations to be integrated into the decking itself. Excavation included constructing retaining walls to bolster the elevated grade—which also had to support a concrete slab, the primary foundation for the entire complex. Solutions The ground level decking consists of a 2,000 square foot flagstone patio level with the home’s lower level doors. There is a decorative water fountain mid-patio—an ornate collectible acquired in Florida. Food preparation is concentrated within a specially designed semi-circular wall that creates an “outdoor kitchen” equipped with a 60” Viking barbecue grill, a prep sink, a warming drawer, refrigerator and appropriate storage. There is a granite surfaced dining counter with seating for eight. Wrought iron railing and approximately 20 decorative columns (some encasing steel vertical supports) are incorporated into the design scheme. Many of the columns house accent lights. The top level—supported by horizontal steel beams– is a 2,500 square foot deck constructed entirely of Trex decking. The open air decking is, again, directly accessible from rooms on the second level of the house including the kitchen, sunroom and family room. The platform’s most prominent feature is a U-shaped “kitchenette” with cedar shake shingle roofing. Like its counterpart one level below, the facility is equipped with grill, refrigerator and stainless steel cabinetry. One portion of the deck has been allocated for a 16’ x 16’ octagonal screened-in porch crowned by a pair of 2’ x 4’ skylights. The porch can be accessed from the home’s conservatory via a set of French doors. With its mosaic tile flooring, stained cedar panel ceiling and honed granite counters, the interior is elegant and calming. Hand-painted stenciling and a wall-mounted water feature provide distinctive detailing. Finally, the design introduced elements to highlight and reinforce an awareness of the lovely bucolic setting. Fountains and water features combined with textured surfaces and mosaic tiling and backsplashes to present a villa-like ambiance well-suited to the Virginia countryside.

The Kelso's Study is a sophisticated and elegant space designed for work, reading, or relaxation. The black windows add a touch of modernity and contrast against the lighter elements in the room. The wainscoting on the walls provides a classic and timeless look, while the white canvas chairs offer comfortable seating with a clean and crisp aesthetic. The white walls create a bright and airy atmosphere, allowing the room to feel spacious and inviting. The white trim adds a subtle accent and enhances the architectural details. The wooden desk serves as a focal point and provides a sturdy and functional workspace. The light hardwood flooring adds warmth and complements the overall color palette of the room. A gray rug adds texture and defines the seating area. A potted plant brings a touch of nature and freshness to the space, adding a pop of green against the neutral tones. The Kelso's Study is a refined and tranquil setting, perfect for concentration and inspiration.

Southern Beach Getaway in WaterColor Private Residence / WaterColor, Florida Architect: Geoff Chick & Associates Builder: Chris Clark Construction The E. F. San Juan team collaborated closely with architect Geoff Chick, builder Chris Clark, interior designer Allyson Runnels, and the homeowners to bring their design vision to reality. This included custom interior and exterior millwork, pecky cypress ceilings in various rooms of the home, different types of wall and ceiling paneling in each upstairs bedroom, custom pecky cypress barn doors and beams in the master suite, Euro-Wall doors in the living area, Weather Shield windows and doors throughout, Georgia pine porch ceilings, and Ipe porch flooring. Challenges: Allyson and the homeowners wanted each of the children’s upstairs bedrooms to have unique features, and we addressed this from a millwork perspective by producing different types of wall and ceiling paneling for each of these rooms. The homeowners also loved the look of pecky cypress and wanted to see this unique type of wood featured as a highlight throughout the home. Solution: In the main living area and kitchen, the coffered ceiling presents pecky cypress stained gray to accent the tiled wall of the kitchen. In the adjoining hallway, the pecky cypress ceiling is lightly pickled white to make a subtle contrast with the surrounding white paneled walls and trim. The master bedroom has two beautiful large pecky cypress barn doors and several large pecky cypress beams that give it a cozy, rustic yet Southern coastal feel. Off the master bedroom is a sitting/TV room featuring a pecky cypress ceiling in a stunning rectangular, concentric pattern that was expertly installed by Edgar Lara and his skilled team of finish carpenters. We also provided twelve-foot-high floor-to-ceiling Euro-Wall Systems doors in the living area that lend to the bright and airy feel of this space, as do the Weather Shield windows and doors that were used throughout the home. Finally, the porches’ rich, South Georgia pine ceilings and chatoyant Ipe floors create a warm contrast to the bright walls, columns, and railings of these comfortable outdoor spaces. The result is an overall stunning home that exhibits all the best characteristics of the WaterColor community while standing out with countless unique custom features. --- Photography by Jack Gardner

This beautiful lakehouse showcases the Quarry Mill's Cherrywood natural thin stone veneer as exterior wainscoting, front entrance accent wall, and chimney. Cherrywood is a dimensional cut or sawed height natural stone veneer. This natural thin veneer is known for its unique and vibrant colors. From a distance, the finished wall will have a deep red or lavender tone, but upon closer inspection, the whites and greens shine through. This type of color variation can only be achieved with natural stone; it comes from the mineral concentration within the ground where Cherrywood is quarried. Cherrywood has a tumbled finish giving it an old and weathered feel that is soft to the touch.

In this project, we transformed a small closet into a sanctuary and focused study area for our young client. This cozy nook is now an accessible center for her books, study materials, homework, and academic preparation resources, seamlessly integrated into her bedroom. Emphasizing her favorite blue tones, we infused the space with calming colors that promote concentration and creativity. To enhance the atmosphere, we prioritized natural light through window enhancements that bring warmth and brightness to this charming colonial-style home in suburban New Jersey. This renovation has created a personalized and functional study sanctuary, allowing her to flourish academically while enjoying a serene and inviting space tailored just for her.

Open workspace now available with fridge tuck-in next to wall. Client's use left side as pantry storage.
