The Brooke Residence ‘Addi- tion by Subtraction’ remodeling project was recognized with numerous regional and national awards and was selected for Fine Homebuilding’s Annual Issue on Houses. This 1920’s Craftsman Bungalow had been poorly modified in the 70’s in an attempt to address poor energy performance with a scabbed on solarium. The design solution removed the solarium and completely reimagined the floor plan: The kitchen was relocated to the rear; the stairway was relocated to enhance function, and a better connection to the family room was created.

The mix of black and white take shape in this modern farmhouse style kitchen. With a timeless color scheme and high end finishes, this kitchen is perfect for large gatherings and entertaining family and friends. The connected dining space and eat in island offers abundant seating, as well as function and storage. The build in buffet area brings in variation, and adds a light and bright quality to the space. Floating shelves offer a softer look than full wall to wall upper cabinets. Classic grey toned porcelain tile give the look of wood without any of the maintenance or wear and tear issues. The classic grey marble backsplash in the baroque shape brings a custom and elegant dimension to the space.

This south facing lakefront condo unit our clients purchased, with its terrace and solaria overlooking the water, was virtually in its original state, never having been renovated. Upon beginning construction, the space was completely opened to the stunning view. A contemporary aesthetic was created while implementing warmth with the choice of materials. With this openness came a new set of issues: mechanical travel and connection to existing runs, all inside a typical concrete condo structure. What we think is a true example of design complexity rendering simplicity.

This whole house remodel, designed by Lynne Parker and built by H&H, turned an average ranch house in Portland’s Council Crest neighborhood into a magazine-worthy designer’s haven (see the August/September 2014 issue of GRAY magazine). H&H reconfigured the master suite, originally two bathrooms and two bedrooms, into one master bedroom, a luxurious master bath, and two walk-in closets. The team also reconfigured the basement area to include two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a laundry room. The remodeled kitchen opens the space up and connects it to the living room.

What was once a messy, underutilized space with major drainage issues is now a beautiful, welcoming courtyard for the residents of Werthan Lofts in downtown Nashville. ?? In this transformation, we tackled drainage head-on, added stamped concrete for style and function, installed a cozy fire pit, and brought in fresh plantings to soften and brighten the space. The result? A peaceful outdoor retreat where neighbors can gather, relax, and connect—right in the heart of the city.

This modern home, near Cedar Lake, built in 1900, was originally a corner store. A massive conversion transformed the home into a spacious, multi-level residence in the 1990’s. However, the home’s lot was unusually steep and overgrown with vegetation. In addition, there were concerns about soil erosion and water intrusion to the house. The homeowners wanted to resolve these issues and create a much more useable outdoor area for family and pets. Castle, in conjunction with Field Outdoor Spaces, designed and built a large deck area in the back yard of the home, which includes a detached screen porch and a bar & grill area under a cedar pergola. The previous, small deck was demolished and the sliding door replaced with a window. A new glass sliding door was inserted along a perpendicular wall to connect the home’s interior kitchen to the backyard oasis. The screen house doors are made from six custom screen panels, attached to a top mount, soft-close track. Inside the screen porch, a patio heater allows the family to enjoy this space much of the year. Concrete was the material chosen for the outdoor countertops, to ensure it lasts several years in Minnesota’s always-changing climate. Trex decking was used throughout, along with red cedar porch, pergola and privacy lattice detailing. The front entry of the home was also updated to include a large, open porch with access to the newly landscaped yard. Cable railings from Loftus Iron add to the contemporary style of the home, including a gate feature at the top of the front steps to contain the family pets when they’re let out into the yard. Tour this project in person, September 28 – 29, during the 2019 Castle Home Tour!
