The Wilder Rectangular Coffee Table is a handcrafted solid wood furniture piece designed for interiors that value clean lines, strong proportions, and natural material character. Its wide rectangular tabletop and bold block-style pedestal legs create a grounded architectural silhouette while keeping the overall look minimal, warm, and refined. Available in solid walnut wood or solid oak wood, Wilder offers two distinct natural expressions. Walnut brings a deeper, richer tone, while oak creates a lighter and more organic appearance. Both options highlight real wood grain, subtle tone variation, and the timeless character of solid wood craftsmanship. The substantial rectangular form provides practical surface space for books, trays, drinks, flowers, decor, and everyday living room use. Its clean block-leg structure gives the table a stable, sculptural presence, making it suitable for modern, minimalist, organic modern, Japandi, mid-century, and warm contemporary interiors. With multiple size and height options, a protective matte finish, and custom-size availability, Wilder is designed as both a functional coffee table and a strong visual anchor for living rooms, lounges, apartments, and open-plan spaces.

Rodwin Architecture and Skycastle Homes Location: Boulder, Colorado, United States The design of this 4500sf, home….the steeply-sloping site; we thought of it as a tree house for grownups. Nestled into the hillside and surrounding by Aspens as well as Lodgepole and Ponderosa Pines, this HERS 38 home combines energy efficiency with a strong mountain palette of stone, stucco, and timber to blend with its surroundings. A strong stone base breaks up the massing of the three-story façade, with an expansive deck establishing a piano noble (elevated main floor) to take full advantage of the property’s amazing views and the owners’ desire for indoor/outdoor living. High ceilings and large windows create a light, spacious entry, which terminates into a custom hickory stair that winds its way to the center of the home. The open floor plan and French doors connect the great room to a gourmet kitchen, dining room, and flagstone patio terraced into the landscaped hillside. Landing dramatically in the great room, a stone fireplace anchors the space, while a wall of glass opens to the soaring covered deck, whose structure was designed to minimize any obstructions to the view.

Situated on this 2.5-acre lake site, four new structures have been created. A main residence, guesthouse, guest cabin, and a detached garage fully unite the site and support a strong desire for family fun and large gatherings. Kept in a similar material palette, each structure is clad in beautifully stained shingles and vertical board paneling, with natural timber brackets detailing the gable ends. Details throughout the residences mark each structure as uniquely connected, and yet provides individual characteristics; a fieldstone veneer was added to the base of the main house to create a hierarchy among the structures. This rustic gathering space boasts large roof overhangs and beautifully landscaped outdoor entertaining areas. Stunning views of the lake and distant mountains can be appreciated from the entire southern front of the site, whether through the large windows or from the comfort of the porch, moments of breathtaking beauty reconnect the spaces with the surrounding environment. The main residence hosts fully connected living room, kitchen, dining room and screened porch on the main level with a private master suite at the edge. Located on the upper level of the lodge are three guest bedrooms and a large bunkroom. Photographer: MTA

Jacob Lilley Architects Location: Lexington, MA, USA A new garage, kids play room above and a mudroom met the need for more space. A renovated kitchen, bedroom and other living spaces created a refreshed sense of home. The strategic location of the mudroom as an intermediary connector solved problems with this 19th-century home siting seven feet above the ground with limited access to the rear yard. The connector between the garage and existing house is a stair that unifies the various levels and develops a strong connection to the yard. Photographed by: Eric Roth

The exterior of the home was updated with the application of integrally color plaster, and Chicago common brick caps, stained wood french doors and casement windows. The breakfast nook replaced an ungainly exterior porch, and window and doors sizes were revised to reflect more traditional proportions. The changes taken together create a home which more strongly reflects the best of Tucson's significant architectural design heritage.

Designed as the heart of the home, this kitchen balances classic white cabinetry with layered textures and hardworking function. The large island creates generous prep and gathering space, while the professional-style range and custom hood establish a strong focal point. Thoughtful planning throughout allows the kitchen to feel open and elegant, while supporting the realities of everyday cooking and entertaining.

Depth and rhythm define this perspective of the new entry sequence. The floating concrete pavers, set within a bed of decomposed granite and dark basalt, guide guests through a layered landscape of sculptural agaves and structural steel planters. Alterra’s landscape architecture team focused on creating a "procession" toward the home, where each material shift signals a new zone of the master plan. The result is a high-end, low-maintenance outdoor living space that provides immediate curb appeal and a strong architectural identity.

This modern primary bedroom combines calm tones and strong architectural details. The dark accent wall and exposed beam create depth, while natural light floods through sliding doors that open to the backyard blending indoor serenity with outdoor connection.

This Spanish Revival takes its place among the graceful and genteel tradition of Santa Barbara architecture. Located in a secreted area of Montecito, the house is tucked amidst a wooded glen along a riparian creek bed. Carefully sited at the top of a rolling green, the building provides a strong form in the natural landscape. With its reference to historical precedent, the house is both undeniably familiar and tangibly rich. Site sensitivity and pure spatial relationships combine in new ways, showing that what’s old can be new again. An entry courtyard concealed behind a pair of wooden doors of Moorish design begins the entry sequence. The courtyard, wrapped around an existing mature oak tree, creates an outdoor room, which establishes an interplay between interior and exterior spaces, a theme that recurs throughout the house. An exercise in scale and proportion, the 5,000-square-foot residence is imbued with classic detail and richness found in the Spanish Colonial architecture characteristic of George Washington Smith and others. Interior spaces are created through pure and varied geometric volumes, and are elaborated by opened beamed ceilings, groin vaults and Moorish arches.

This Claremont home was in the middle stages of construction as a duplex when our clients purchased it. However, they wanted a single family home inspired by Japanese design. The owners have a great modern aesthetic and also wanted to use just a few different materials which created a strong and simple palette. Added to this clean look are chartreuse main doors, midcentury modern lighting, a tatami room, and black metal stair railing. These carefully placed details offer a unique and personal character to the home. In addition, a children’s reading nook and desk under the stair case utilizes the space fully and adds another individual touch.

The Reed Condo living room is defined by a crisp white palette layered with warm wood tones, earthy greens, and organic elements. A large sliding glass door creates a strong visual connection to the patio, extending the living space outdoors and bringing natural light deep into the interior.

The powder room at Mountain Arch by Fox Construction features teal custom cabinetry paired with a richly veined stone countertop and integrated backsplash.

Attached Garden Pergolas are a great way to add an extension to the outside of your house, without serious renovations or construction crews. The Pergola Kit attaches to your house with sturdy, stylish redwood beams, that are built to last. It creates a canopy-like wood covering that lets lots of sun in and improves the aesthetics of your back yard or pool area.

The Watermill House is a beautiful example of a classic Hamptons wood shingle style home. The design and renovation would maintain the character of the exterior while transforming the interiors to create an open and airy getaway for a busy and active family. The house comfortably sits within its one acre lot surrounded by tall hedges, old growth trees, and beautiful hydrangeas. The landscape influenced the design approach of the main floor interiors. Walls were removed and the kitchen was relocated to the front of the house to create an open plan for better flow and views to both the front and rear yards. The kitchen was designed to be both practical and beautiful. The u-shape design features modern appliances, white cabinetry and Corian countertops, and is anchored by a beautiful island with a knife-edge marble countertop. The island and the dining room table create a strong axis to the living room at the rear of the house. To further strengthen the connection to the outdoor decks and pool area of the rear yard, a full height sliding glass window system was installed. The clean lines and modern profiles of the window frames create unobstructed views and virtually remove the barrier between the interior and exterior spaces. The open plan allowed a new sitting area to be created between the dining room and stair. A screen, comprised of vertical fins, allows for a degree of openness, while creating enough separation to make the sitting area feel comfortable and nestled in its own area. The stair at the entry of the house was redesigned to match the new elegant and sophisticated spaces connected to it. New treads were installed to articulate and contrast the soft palette of finishes of the floors, walls, and ceilings. The new metal and glass handrail was intended to reduce visual noise and create subtle reflections of light. Photo by Guillaume Gaudet
