Useful under-the-stairs storage: this broom closet houses swifter mops and stick vacuum (an outlet is inside). Cabinet doors are painted the same color as the wall and are open by a touch latch. Michelle Turner, UDCP

An electrical or switchplate can disrupt the appearance of a custom, decorative finish. By painting the plate as part of the wall, it becomes invisible from a foot or so away. This close-up is of a wall in a sitting room off the master bedroom in a 1940's glamour style home. The elegant damask pattern was painted with metallic gold. A metallic gold glaze went on top to create a delicate strie over the damask pattern and cream base coat.

The proposal analyzes the site as a series of existing flows or “routes” across the landscape. The negotiation of both constructed and natural systems establishes the logic of the site plan and the orientation and organization of the new home. Conceptually, the project becomes a highly choreographed knot at the center of these routes, drawing strands in, engaging them with others, and propelling them back out again. The project’s intent is to capture and harness the physical and ephemeral sense of these latent natural movements as a way to promote in the architecture the wanderlust the surrounding landscape inspires. At heart, the client’s initial family agenda--a home as antidote to the city and basecamp for exploration--establishes the ethos and design objectives of the work. Photography - Bruce Damonte

Photo is a close up of the woodgrain of the siding. This is a home on Lake Livingston Texas that we removed the old siding that was rotting. We then installed new LP SmartSide siding that comes with a 50 year siding and trim warranty. We painted the home with Sherwin-Williams Super Paint.
