Located in Washington, DC, this compartmentalized 1930s home underwent a whole house renovation to update it for modern life. The new tailored Kitchen and Family Room addition opens up the floor plan to create light-filled spaces with a strong connection to the exterior landscape beyond. Modifications to the remainder of the house elevate the more private rooms with an understated elegance. Stone terraces and gardens create magical outdoor rooms that act as a beautiful backdrop to the home and new detached Garage. Photo Credit: Gordon Beall Photography

The main barn is viewed from beneath the deep overhang of a neighboring structure, with rugged log columns acting as a natural frame around the central building. This layered composition creates a strong sense of arrival: shaded timber and concrete define the foreground, a broad gravel court occupies the middle ground, and the green barn, landscaped beds, and autumn woodland complete the view. Olive siding, gray-brown shingles, exposed logs, pale gravel, and weathered stone form an earthy palette enlivened by seasonal flowers and blue sky. Strong directional sunlight produces dramatic bands of light and shadow, emphasizing the tactile differences between bark, gravel, wood, and foliage. The architecture recalls an Adirondack farm compound or refined equestrian courtyard. Passing through this threshold would feel grounded and anticipatory, with the natural materials creating a reassuring transition from one sheltered space to another.

The residence presents a refined contemporary façade defined by strong horizontal massing and asymmetrical rectilinear volumes. Wooden exterior elements, large glass openings, and layered planes add depth and warmth, while recessed lighting on the upper projections creates a striking floating effect at dusk.

Influenced by natural forms of flora, the Rotaire collection is a culmination of minimalist sensibilities and natural inspirations. Designed to mimic the form and flow of flowers and vines, the strong stems of this collection create the perfect frame for the illumination from each “leaf”.

This unique project has heavy Asian influences due to the owner’s strong connection to Indonesia, along with a Mountain West flare creating a unique and rustic contemporary composition. This mountain contemporary residence is tucked into a mature ponderosa forest in the beautiful high desert of Flagstaff, Arizona. The site was instrumental on the development of our form and structure in early design. The 60 to 100 foot towering ponderosas on the site heavily impacted the location and form of the structure. The Asian influence combined with the vertical forms of the existing ponderosa forest led to the Flagstaff House trending towards a horizontal theme.

The renovations at Horseshoe Hill transformed a disjointed property into an alluring farmhouse with strong connections to the landscape and a fresh aesthetic to complement the owner’s South African furnishings. A new main gable establishes a strong central focus for the massing, and an entry wing addition welcomes visitors with a charming porch and inviting foyer. New south-facing covered porches create comfortable outdoor living areas, connect major rooms to the outdoors, and provide shade and filtered light for interior spaces. The home’s updated floor plan distills an existing warren of disconnected, small chambers into spacious, open rooms that infuse the house with a modern flow and engage the new pool.

Black fixtures were used to break the white and create a pop of contrast that really brought the room together.
