Prior to its near-total reconstruction, the Jett Residence was an overgrown structure hidden in a grove of trees in Iowa City, IA. The strikingly-renovated cottage now serves as a retreat house for its owners. Originally built in 1853, the residence retains a significant portion of the original, locally-made red brick. An original, vaulted stone root cellar—rumored to have been part of the Underground Railroad—also remains on the property. The owners were deeply involved in working with Neumann Monson Architects, Iowa City, in planning the renovation, according to co-owner Bobby Jett. The interior design of the 1,870 sq. ft. cottage offers a highly contemporary flair within the historic setting. The most prominent feature of the exterior is the RHEINZINK roof. “Everyone loves the roof,” Jett said. “They’ve never seen anything like it.” Approximately 2,500 sq. ft. of RHEINZINK Square Tiles were utilized. The 0.8mm prePATINA blue-grey Square Tiles were installed in a diamond pattern. Selection of the RHEINZINK Square Tiles was inspired by an old black and white photo of the house taken more half a century ago. “At that time, the roof of the house had diamond shaped shingles. We wanted to replicate that look,” according to Jett. “The architect suggested that RHEINZINK could provide the look and durability we wanted.” “We definitely wanted to replicate the roof’s visual pattern that we saw in the old photo but obviously wanted it to have more permanence and durability,” said Tim Schroeder, vice president at Neumann Monson Architects. “We’ve worked with zinc before and thought it would be a good complement to the dormers that would provide a nice crisp appearance. The RHEINZINK was definitely a nod to the historic element but provided a progressive look as well.” Fabrication of the Square Tiles was done by RHEINZINK systems partner Sheet Metal Supply (SMS), Mundelein, IL. Installation of the RHEINZINK Square Tiles was performed by Natural Metal Associates, Mont Vernon, NH. The owner of Natural Metal Associates, Lou Rondeau, has extensive hands-on experience with zinc fabrication methods and techniques. “I knew this was a unique project and I really wanted to be a part of it,” Rondeau said. Rondeau was accompanied by an apprentice and personally did the hand-cutting and folding associated with detailing the valleys and edges. The work also included installation of the RHEINZINK half-round 5½” gutter system. The installation was completed in nine days, according to Rondeau. “Zinc is a premium material that’s a real pleasure to work with,” he said.

Form and function became one when this custom steel wine cellar room was completed. This temperature-controlled wine cellar room, made by artisan welders, includes a custom steel interior door with insulated glass, and adjacent custom steel wall panels with insulated glass. Our customer’s wine cellar room crafted from steel and insulated glass is sealed at all edges and kept at the recommended temperature of 55 degrees. In order to efficiently store collectible wine pieces and your daily go-to selections, we encourage a temperature-controlled environment. Our goal was to provide a modern twist to an otherwise classic feature in a high-end home. This stand-alone wine cellar room crafted from steel was designed to be a focal point in our customer’s basement living area. The progression of wine cellar designs are showing that detached wine racking techniques are the new wave of innovation and style. The idea of creating a bold display for our customer’s wine collection was intriguing to us as designers, because we strive to be on the cutting edge of all things design and beauty. To accentuate the modern twist of the independent wine cabinet, we suggested a sleek and modern steel interior door and steel wall units. Our ultra-thin steel stiles and rails are the perfect fit to allow optimal viewing into our customer’s collection. With insulated glass and fully sealed edges, no heat can enter and no cool air can escape. The custom interior steel door unit blends seamlessly with the accompanying steel wall structures. This seamless design creates a beautifully controlled environment for wine with a sleek steel appearance. Using steel doors and steel walls was a mindful approach because the star of the show is the carefully selected bottles of wine. The idea was to juxtapose the wood shelves inside of the cabinet and create another element that stands out, while still allowing for optimal viewing…and obsessing.

This project is a reflection of modern design and style, and incorporates natural materials and features that had no limitations. Every attention to detail was considered and applied to the design and construction of this waterside beauty. The property is entered through a long meandering laneway, which is bordered with exposed aggregate concrete banding that visually connects to the parking area and the accenting paver design. On arrival, you are greeted with two very large planter box features that offer plantings of luxuriant seasonal interest and beauty. The perennials, shrubs and trees were all carefully selected to reflect the client’s tastes and lifestyle. The lighting design utilizes a wide variety of strategies and techniques, from shadowing and wall washing, to grazing and moonlighting. The result is a magical night garden that filled with wonder. The large patio terrace begins with an impressive 17’ long granite bar and outdoor kitchen, great for entertaining and cooking. Whether sunbathing, lounging or hot-tubbing, this outdoor living area is an adult’s paradise ready to be enjoyed. Large, terraced armourstone boulder walls retain and stabilize the shoreline. The client’s morning typically begins with a dip in the hot tub with its automated cover, and is an easy trek in the winter as the patio terrace has an in-ground heating system to keep the snow and ice clear. The furniture was specifically planned from the initial design, as sunbathing loungers, couches/armchairs and barstools are all matching and unified. Key landscape features from previous gardens were incorporated into this property, including their beloved NestRest hanging over the water’s edge. This unique focal point is anchored and cantilevered through a custom mast and boom system, reflecting the client’s love for sailing. The end result of this project is the epitome taste, style and a persistent dedication towards perfection.

These leaf patterns are hand crafted for this room and applied with paint. The underlying wall finish is layered paint and hand scraped. This is a very small powder room. You can reach every wall from the toilet. Because it's so small we wanted to fill the space with textures, different textures and darker colors. The colors and wood also reflect the colors and texture of a set of framed Japanese silk prints in the foyer next to this powder room. Wm Burlingham Photography

Luxury Calacatta Viola Marble Kitchen with Bookmatched Backsplash | Cary, NC This luxury kitchen project in Cary, North Carolina showcases the power of natural stone as a true architectural centerpiece. Designed with a refined balance of modern minimalism and bold material expression, the space is defined by a dramatic installation of Calacatta Viola marble, expertly fabricated and installed by Mogastone. The focal point of the kitchen is the full-height, bookmatched marble backsplash, where large-format slabs create a continuous, symmetrical composition. The bold veining and rich contrast of Calacatta Viola transform the cooking area into a statement feature, elevating the entire space with a gallery-like presence. A custom waterfall island extends the same marble throughout the kitchen, reinforcing continuity and visual impact. The island’s sculptural form highlights the natural movement of the stone while providing a functional centerpiece for gathering, preparation, and entertaining. Warm white oak cabinetry introduces a soft, organic contrast to the expressive marble, creating a balanced material palette that feels both modern and inviting. Integrated lighting beneath the cabinetry and island enhances the floating effect while adding depth and ambiance to the space. The kitchen is further elevated by architectural elements including a curved archway, skylight, and open-concept layout, allowing natural light to interact with the stone surfaces throughout the day. This interplay of light highlights the depth, texture, and variation within the marble, emphasizing its natural beauty. Every detail of this project reflects precision craftsmanship and advanced fabrication techniques. From digital templating to CNC and waterjet cutting, Mogastone ensured seamless installation, tight tolerances, and a flawless finish across all surfaces. This project is a perfect example of how premium natural stone, when paired with thoughtful design and expert execution, can transform a kitchen into a timeless luxury environment. Project Details: • Material: Calacatta Viola Marble • Application: Full-height backsplash, waterfall island, countertops • Cabinetry: Custom white oak • Location: Cary, North Carolina • Fabrication & Installation: Mogastone
