The definitive idea behind this project was to create a modest country house that was traditional in outward appearance yet minimalist from within. The harmonious scale, thick wall massing and the attention to architectural detail are reminiscent of the enduring quality and beauty of European homes built long ago. It features a custom-built Spanish Colonial- inspired house that is characterized by an L-plan, low-pitched mission clay tile roofs, exposed wood rafter tails, broad expanses of thick white-washed stucco walls with recessed-in French patio doors and casement windows; and surrounded by native California oaks, boxwood hedges, French lavender, Mexican bush sage, and rosemary that are often found in Mediterranean landscapes. An emphasis was placed on visually experiencing the weight of the exposed ceiling timbers and the thick wall massing between the light, airy spaces. A simple and elegant material palette, which consists of white plastered walls, timber beams, wide plank white oak floors, and pale travertine used for wash basins and bath tile flooring, was chosen to articulate the fine balance between clean, simple lines and Old World touches.

2011 NARI CAPITAL COTY MERIT AWARD WINNER; 2012 QUALIFIED REMODELER MASTER DESIGN AWARD This 1950 brick colonial featured a floor plan typical of homes of that era--small boxy rooms, each separated by four walls. The young couple who owned the home loved its potential, but needed more space. The main goal of this project was to create a seamless and open floor plan on the first floor, adding a family room and enlarging the kitchen. A master bedroom and bathroom suite were planned to make better use of the second level. To accomplish these goals, a 20’ x 20’ two-story addition was designed by Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes. The new expanded kitchen and family room features limestone floors, a new gas fireplace surrounded with built-ins and glass stone hearth to complement the kitchen countertops and backsplash. Use of espresso colored cabinetry topped by a light granite countertop with brown veins running through it is one of the decorative touches that make this project stunning. The large middle island which consists of a second sink, wine chiller and seating space is another bonus point of this kitchen. Commercial quality appliances assure gourmet cooking at its finest. Large first floor windows face the home’s new flagstone patio, which can be accessed via a French door. The second floor consists of the master bedroom with a sitting area , French doors leading into a French balcony facing back yard, double-sided stoned gas fireplace (between the bedroom and master bath) and a cathedral ceiling. The master bathroom features a large steam shower, body sprays and rain shower, a large double person Jacuzzi, tumbled marble floor and wall tiles with accents. The use of wide plank exotic tiger wood has beautified this master suite. Keeping the homeowners’ contemporary style in mind and achieving their wishes has transformed this old 1950 colonial into a fully functional 21st Century dream home.

This “before” Manhattan kitchen was featured in Traditional Home in 1992 having traditional cherry cabinets and polished-brass hardware. Twenty-three years later it was featured again, having been redesigned by Bilotta designer RitaLuisa Garces, this time as a less ornate space, a more streamlined, cleaner look that is popular today. Rita reconfigured the kitchen using the same space but with a more practical flow and added light. The new “after” kitchen features recessed panel Rutt Handcrafted Cabinetry in a blue finish with materials that have reflective qualities. These materials consist of glass mosaic tile backsplash from Artistic Tile, a Bridge faucet in polished nickel from Barber Wilsons & Co, Franke stainless-steel sink, porcelain floor tiles with a bronze glaze and polished blue granite countertops. When the kitchen was reconfigured they moved the eating niche and added a tinted mirror backsplash to reflect the light as well.

A FITTING THAT IS LIKE PRECISION-WORKED CRYSTAL. | Supernova is a fitting of high sculptural quality, with numerous facets and polygonal surfaces, making it reminiscent of precision-worked crystal. The name of the fitting invokes a supernova, the sudden, extreme burst of brilliance that emanates from an exploding star. In Supernova, this radiance manifests itself in diverse, consistently new reflections of its surroundings. It is as if the fitting is reflecting the idea of the architecture as much as the architecture is reflecting the idea of the fitting. The abundance of facets in the fitting is also conveyed to the individual bathroom architecture. It is as if the fitting were designed for an exposed bathroom. | Available at www.shopstudio41.com

The Quarry Mill's Hawthorne real thin stone veneer adds elegance to the front of the beautiful residential home. Hawthorne is a low height ledgestone real stone veneer in semi-consistent shades of tan. The natural sandstone pieces come from the thinner layers of the quarry. Hawthorne’s pieces have relatively straight and parallel tops and bottoms from the clean slabs cut into the thin veneer. The stone can be installed with or without a mortar joint between the individual pieces. If you are planning to drystack the stone, both the mason’s cost to do the installation as well as the waste factor will increase considerably. Hawthorne is a premium quality thin stone veneer imported from overseas. It is in stock and ready to ship.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Asher is designed to play a starring role. And at nearly ten and a half feet long, its outline and polished chrome legs still render it seeming nearly weightless. The sofa's arms taper slightly outward from the cushions, cutting a distinct profile and natural back rest. Asher's form is slightly larger than standard chaise lounges, but the extra real estate provides the requisite space for stretching out. Asher will maintain its shape and invite comfort for years. A combination of high-resilience foam seating and removable back cushions wrapped in goose-down invite you to sit back, relax, and stay a while - as will Asher's high-quality, soft felt upholstery. FACTORY DESCRIPTION We met this factory's owner before we set foot in his shop, and we knew we wanted to work together. After getting a detailed factory tour, it confirmed what we suspected. His cool, collected personality was reflected in the exceptional pieces his team was hand-crafting. The facility is immaculate. Their exacting dedication is reflected in the entire process and the pride with which they craft consistently solid designs.
