With family life and entertaining in mind, we built this 4,000 sq. ft., 4 bedroom, 3 full baths and 2 half baths house from the ground up! To fit in with the rest of the neighborhood, we constructed an English Tudor style home, but updated it with a modern, open floor plan on the first floor, bright bedrooms, and large windows throughout the home. What sets this home apart are the high-end architectural details that match the home’s Tudor exterior, such as the historically accurate windows encased in black frames. The stunning craftsman-style staircase is a post and rail system, with painted railings. The first floor was designed with entertaining in mind, as the kitchen, living, dining, and family rooms flow seamlessly. The home office is set apart to ensure a quiet space and has its own adjacent powder room. Another half bath and is located off the mudroom. Upstairs, the principle bedroom has a luxurious en-suite bathroom, with Carrera marble floors, furniture quality double vanity, and a large walk in shower. There are three other bedrooms, with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom and an additional hall bathroom.

This existing home was originally built circa 1919, and was ready for a major renovation. As was characteristic of the period in which the home was built, the existing spaces were small and closed in. The design concept included removing walls on first floor for a thoroughly updated and open living / dining / kitchen space, as well as creating a new first floor powder room and entry. Great care was taken to preserve and embrace original period details, including the wood doors and hardware (which were all refinished and reused), the existing stairs (also refinished), and an existing brick pier was exposed to restore some of the home’s inherent charm. The existing wood flooring was also refinished to retain the original details and character.
The kitchen was completely renovated to introduce all of the modern conveniences, and the existing wall between the kitchen and dining room was removed to create an open kitchen / dining space.

This all white galley kitchen is crisp and bright. The backsplash is handmade porcelain white subway tiles with a crackle finish, which is a perfect accent for the white quartz counters and white cabinets. The bumped-out sink is housed in a furniture-grade valance and adds another dimension to the space. Storage is the name of the game in this kitchen, including convenient drawers under the range. Oiled bronze lighting and galvanized steel cabinet pulls complete this room’s sleek look.
This farmhouse style home in West Chester is the epitome of warmth and welcoming. We transformed this house’s original dark interior into a light, bright sanctuary. From installing brand new red oak flooring throughout the first floor to adding horizontal shiplap to the ceiling in the family room, we really enjoyed working with the homeowners on every aspect of each room. A special feature is the coffered ceiling in the dining room. We recessed the chandelier directly into the beams, for a clean, seamless look. We maximized the space in the white and chrome galley kitchen by installing a lot of custom storage. The pops of blue throughout the first floor give these room a modern touch.

The owners of this Annapolis home were looking to renovate a few main rooms throughout the house. In order to bring their vision into fruition, our team removed and reconstructed walls and installed new beams on the first floor to create an open concept living space. Now a built-in breakfast nook and remodeled kitchen with tons of natural light looks out to a swimming pool and patio designed for outdoor entertainment. Our team moved the laundry room from the first floor to the second floor and updated all bathrooms throughout the house.

The porcelain gray/beige tile from the mudroom continues into the powder room. A blue accent and shiplap reappear in this room too. The blue vanity topped with a white quartz counter adds a splash of color and a modern flare. The shiplap accent wall lends this powder room a farmhouse feel and is a great backdrop for the beautiful elongated sconces and wall faucet.

Are you interested in writing the thesis? I want to tell about the some nuances which will help to write a good and interesting theses paper.
1. Firstly find a topic, which is really interesting to you. Be attentive, because all methods, directions and explorations will be directed to this topic. By the way, it will be bad when the topic will be chosen for you by your tutor.
2. Think about the exploration of this topic. Try to think about the subject of exploration. What will you really explore? It is really needed to understand and to make the further steps.
3. Think about the aim of the thesis, about the audience and methods of the paper. Find sources and literature which you will use in your thesis paper.
4. Start to write the thesis. Write the first thoughts and ideas. Try to develop these ideas and find the basic information of previous explorations which you’ve found. Everything should be written clearly and logically.
5. Make an analyze of the thesis. But do if after all paper will be written. Look at mistakes and proofread the whole paper. Moreover, you need to write a thesis not from you. Don’t use such phrases like “I mean” or “I think”. Try to write everything in scientific style and use terms.
6. Consider all moments and discuss all problems and serious moments with the tutor. May be he/she will help you to make your thesis paper fuller and more interesting.
7. I think that I have mentioned all important moment which you need to follow. But there are some more moments which should be in mind. Of course, it concerns about the topic of thesis.
8. Take into account all details and aims which you should achieve writing this thesis paper. Moreover, the most important moment is an absence of mistakes. Proofread your paper few times and give to someone to read it and to check if it needs.
Hopefully I think that there are the basic and the most important tips which must be taken into consideration when we speak about thesis paper. This kind of academic papers takes too much time and attention, that’s why you need to start as earlier as possible to make it really perfect.

This existing home was originally built circa 1919, and was ready for a major renovation. As was characteristic of the period in which the home was built, the existing spaces were small and closed in. The design concept included removing walls on first floor for a thoroughly updated and open living / dining / kitchen space, as well as creating a new first floor powder room and entry. Great care was taken to preserve and embrace original period details, including the wood doors and hardware (which were all refinished and reused), the existing stairs (also refinished), and an existing brick pier was exposed to restore some of the home’s inherent charm. The existing wood flooring was also refinished to retain the original details and character.

A classic colonial transformation was the task at hand. Taking typical compartmentalized rooms and creating an open concept with expansive windows and updating all the finishes not only brought the outside in but also completely reconfigured the flow and sight lines of the home.
Set in a tranquil and private setting made maximizing natural light and vistas a priority. The walk-out basement now has open unobstructed views of the sparkling in-ground pool and native landscaping. Contemporary finishes, new custom built-in murphy bed and media wall, as well as a renovated full bath, wet bar and home gym tie the renovation together seamlessly.
The first floor overhaul consists of a true open concept kitchen, dining and living spaces. The kitchen was designed without upper cabinets allowing for panoramic outdoor views as well as open and airy work surfaces with tandem islands. A brand new mudroom was designed as the perfect transition between garage and renovated first level. Along with a brand new stair design, wall paneling, renovated powder room, flooring and new light fixtures throughout gave this outdated home a fresh facelift.
The exterior's total modification was enhanced with a distinct new entry flanked by substantial stone columns and double height entry. All new siding, windows and spacious deck completed the total improvements and created a truly remarkable before and after project!
