Moody Elegance: A Warm and Inviting Forest Green Kitchen & Mudroom Step into a home that perfectly blends elegance and functionality with a sophisticated palette. Forest green cabinetry sets the stage for a space that feels both moody and welcoming, while thoughtfully placed accents infuse it with a touch of transitional charm. Key Features: Forest Green Cabinetry: Deep, rich forest green cabinets create an eye-catching focal point that exudes elegance and depth. This timeless color adds a sense of sophistication while being versatile enough to suit a transitional style. Warm and Inviting Details: Natural wood accents, like a wood butcher block in the kitchen, built-in bench or floating shelves, balance the deep green and bring warmth to the space. This combination creates an inviting atmosphere perfect for busy comings and goings. Pops of Color: Accents like decorative pillows, a vase of fresh flowers, or colorful storage baskets add subtle splashes of color to contrast with the cabinetry and liven up the space. These touches make the mudroom feel more personalized and engaging. Elegant Hardware: Brass or matte gold hardware lends an upscale touch, elevating the design and enhancing the warmth of the forest green cabinetry. Functional and Stylish Flooring: Rich walnut wood floor in to add visual interest and a sense of luxury, without overpowering the cabinetry. Lighting That Glows: Layered lighting, such as a statement pendant light or recessed LED strips, casts a warm glow throughout the space, enhancing its welcoming feel while maintaining a moody, elegant ambiance. This moody yet warm design is perfectly balanced sophistication with practicality. With its elegant forest green cabinetry, pops of color, and transitional elements, it becomes more than just a functional space—it becomes an extension of your home’s refined style.

Ward Jewell, AIA was asked to design a comfortable one-story stone and wood pool house that was "barn-like" in keeping with the owner’s gentleman farmer concept. Thus, Mr. Jewell was inspired to create an elegant New England Stone Farm House designed to provide an exceptional environment for them to live, entertain, cook and swim in the large reflection lap pool. Mr. Jewell envisioned a dramatic vaulted great room with hand selected 200 year old reclaimed wood beams and 10 foot tall pocketing French doors that would connect the house to a pool, deck areas, loggia and lush garden spaces, thus bringing the outdoors in. A large cupola “lantern clerestory” in the main vaulted ceiling casts a natural warm light over the graceful room below. The rustic walk-in stone fireplace provides a central focal point for the inviting living room lounge. Important to the functionality of the pool house are a chef’s working farm kitchen with open cabinetry, free-standing stove and a soapstone topped central island with bar height seating. Grey washed barn doors glide open to reveal a vaulted and beamed quilting room with full bath and a vaulted and beamed library/guest room with full bath that bookend the main space. The private garden expanded and evolved over time. After purchasing two adjacent lots, the owners decided to redesign the garden and unify it by eliminating the tennis court, relocating the pool and building an inspired "barn". The concept behind the garden’s new design came from Thomas Jefferson’s home at Monticello with its wandering paths, orchards, and experimental vegetable garden. As a result this small organic farm, was born. Today the farm produces more than fifty varieties of vegetables, herbs, and edible flowers; many of which are rare and hard to find locally. The farm also grows a wide variety of fruits including plums, pluots, nectarines, apricots, apples, figs, peaches, guavas, avocados (Haas, Fuerte and Reed), olives, pomegranates, persimmons, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and ten different types of citrus. The remaining areas consist of drought-tolerant sweeps of rosemary, lavender, rockrose, and sage all of which attract butterflies and dueling hummingbirds. Photo Credit: Laura Hull Photography.

Family room - traditional family room idea in DC Metro

This cute cottage, one block from the beach, had not been updated in over 20 years. The homeowners finally decided that it was time to renovate after scrapping the idea of tearing the home down and starting over. Amazingly, they were able to give this house a fresh start with our input. We completed a full kitchen renovation and addition and updated 4 of their bathrooms. We added all new light fixtures, furniture, wallpaper, flooring, window treatments and tile. The mix of metals and wood brings a fresh vibe to the home. We loved working on this project and are so happy with the outcome! Photographed by: James Salomon
