A small residential, seaside property located on Fairfield Beach, Fairfield was renovated by the new owners and adapted for their active family. Barbara was the landscape architect in charge of all of the landscape elements upgrades. She designed new bluestone curving paths to access the front and side doors and designed new landscape lighting to enhance the walks. The existing trees were saved and she designed new shade and salt-tolerant plantings which were added to provide seasonal color and interest while respecting the existing plantings. Along the beach front additional native beach grasses were added to stabilize the dunes while removing some invasive plantings. This work will be phased over the next few years in an effort to keep the sand stable. Beach roses were incorporated into a hollow in the dunes. A small lawn area was renovated and the surrounding Black Pines pruned to provide a small play area and respite from the sun. Beautiful reblooming hydrangeas line the edge of the gravel driveway. Rounded beach stones were used instead of mulch in the island planting along the edge of the adjacent road planted with Miscanthus, Mugo pine and yucca.
Barbara designed a custom kayak rack, custom garbage enclosure, a new layout of the existing wooden deck to facilitate access to the side doors, and detailed how to renovate the front door into only an emergency access with new railings and steps.
She coordinating obtaining bids and then supervised the installation of all elements for the new landscape the project.
The interiors were designed by Jack Montgomery Design of Greenwich, CT and NYC . Tree work was completed by Bartlett Tree Experts. Freddy’s Landscape Company of Fairfield, CT installed the new plantings, installed all the new masonry work and provides landscape maintenance services. JT Low Voltage and Electric installed the landscape lighting.

Kitchen - This kitchen is for an active family who wanted this space to be carefree and comfortable. Large appliances and lots of island seating means this room can really function as the heart of the home. Light, natural wood tones are complemented with cool greens and blues from the island granite top and coordinating wall color give this home a relaxed beachy vibe.

When this family came to us, they loved their home — but their bathrooms were failing them. The kids' bathroom had a non-functioning tub, a serious problem with two young children in the house. The primary bathroom was battling an active shower leak, a poor layout, and finishes well past their prime. Both spaces needed to be gutted. We got to work.
The Primary Bath: Elevated, Effortless, Unmistakably Theirs
Our clients arrived with a clear vision and a beautiful, refined sense of style. The layout was reconfigured from the ground up, and at the heart of the room sits a custom double vanity in a soft, sophisticated sage, topped with a stunning marble countertop and coordinating backsplash. Paired with elegant walnut-framed mirrors, a sculptural black and brass sconce, and wall-mounted polished nickel faucets, the vanity wall is a showpiece. Custom woven shades add warmth without sacrificing light.
The walk-in shower delivers — floor-to-ceiling white subway tile, a mosaic marble floor, transom windows, and frameless glass. Schluter DITRA radiant floor heating adds the kind of quiet luxury you feel every morning. Both marble surfaces were professionally sealed with StoneGuard to protect the investment for the long haul.
The Kids' Bath: Cheerful, Timeless, Built to Last
The girls' bathroom is designed with just as much intention as any room in the house. A warm white oak vanity with marble countertop anchors the space, paired with an antique brass-framed mirror and raspberry custom sconce shades that bring personality without being precious. A botanical-print Roman shade layers in pattern and charm.
The fully rebuilt tub-shower features wall-to-wall white subway tile, polished nickel fixtures, and a beautiful geometric floor tile in cream and warm taupe. A glass-front wall cabinet keeps things tidy, and tile wainscoting wraps the room for durability where it counts. Schluter DITRA radiant heat runs underfoot here too — because warm floors aren't just for adults.
Two bathrooms. Completely distinct. Completely intentional. Built for a family that already loved their home — and loves it even more now.

This rectangular, sun-drenched pool area is flawlessly integrated into the vast, open landscape, offering a feeling of luxurious escape. The design features a clean-lined pool with an elegant water feature that adds a gentle, soothing ambiance. An adjacent raised, square spa, clad in warm-toned natural stone, provides the ultimate spot for year-round indulgence and relaxation.
The expansive, light-colored decking defines the outdoor living space, thoughtfully sectioning areas for activity. Central to the lounge area is a square fire pit, also finished in coordinating stone, perfect for evening gatherings. Comfort is paramount, with elegant, suspended cantilever umbrellas providing shade for the tanning loungers, while a row of classic wooden rocking chairs lines the perimeter, offering a picturesque spot to take in the unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside. This design beautifully balances modern amenities with the tranquility of a rustic setting.

This kitchen was designed for a very active family. The goal was light, bright, and functional.
Matte finish Caesarstone counters and Smudge Proof stainless appliances all help Mom keep maintenance to a minimum. We chose high gloss white cabinets with co-ordinating striation bases to give this Kitchen a clean and contemporary feel. The backsplash features a beautiful back painted glass subway tile with a soft off white pearlescent shimmer.
The Kitchen needed to pack a lot of punch functionally for optimal storage capacity. Interior Designer Rael Hay cleverly capitalized on every square inch even devising a “Command Centre” for Mom - complete with homework organizer, family calendar, additional storage and Charging Station ready for the lap top.

After a flood swept through the 6000 sf Terrace Level of this home near Atlanta, GA, the homeowners were referred to JDA to re-design and coordinate the renovation. Our scope included a wine room, bar, tasting room, guest suite, game room, screening room, family room, and fitness areas. But the standout has always been the spa. Featuring a locker room, a small sauna, and steam room, the spa felt like an afterthought. 23 months later, the spa stands out for other reasons.
Custom sourced, handmade quilted leather doors with knurled brass hardware conceal to a vanity and changing area. Inside, dark mica flake walls glint subtly in the lighting that cycles lazily between moody color pallets as you walk through the space, leading you past refreshment bars and towel stations to find the cast concrete tub. Above you, a dark ceiling appears to float, with edge lighting separating it from the custom American Walnut wall cladding. And everything is drenched in the hyper-warm glow emanating from the lighted pink Himalayan salt wall, which leads to a glass door. Inside is the sauna. There, a second salt wall, backing up to the first, highlights the bespoke curved western red cedar benches and soft cove lighting, providing an intimate and relaxing halotherapy experience.
Across the tub room, a glass wall perfectly reflects the first salt wall. Inside, is a surprisingly large steam. A softly rounded, barrel vaulted ceiling is clad in dark, iridescent, Italian mosaic glass tiles. Benches wrap two walls and meet at a vessel sink, perched atop a stone plinth filled with ice to refresh yourself. If you still become overheated, the pull chain attached to the rain shower is set to provide a cold deluge. And to the side, a small touch screen activates the 6 ceiling mounted shower heads aligned above an 8’ stone bench. This is a Vichy shower, which is a shower you of course enjoy lying down. Vichy showers are more prevalent in Turkish hammams to wash away mud treatments. Here it’s placed inside the steam room, allowing you to experience multiple temperature extremes simultaneously.
JDA created a signature spa, designed to provide our clients with an immersive & transformative experience, unlike any other residential spa in Atlanta.

Our products feature pivoting louvers that can be easily activated using a smartphone, to block out the sun or allow for air flow.

The sturdy pergolas are made of extruded aluminum, with a powder coating in a variety of colors, which make it easy to coordinate the structures with the design of the home. With added lights and fans, it’s easier than ever to entertain outdoors.

Battle Architects creates a lot of great projects with great clients but always appreciates the opportunity to work with a client again. The clients have worked with Battle Architects on a few projects on their home in Concord, MA. The remodeling of 1980’s kitchen maintained the floor plans while creating visual interest. The cabinetry includes high glass cupboards to house special curios and allows for an easy, elegant transition into the contiguous family room. Surfaces such as the soap stone counter surrounding the farm sink and the wooden dining bar, were selected to accommodate the preferences of an active cook. The new barn was built several years after the house, carefully positioned on a corner of the property, coordinating with the original architecture. An Artist’s ceramic retreat was built celebrating rustic materials, and ceramics embedded in the concrete foundation.
