A TOUCHDOWN BY DESIGN Interior design by Jennifer Corredor, J Design Group, Coral Gables, Florida Text by Christine Davis Photography by Daniel Newcomb, Palm Beach Gardens, FL What did Detroit Lions linebacker, Stephen Tulloch, do when he needed a decorator for his new Miami 10,000-square-foot home? He tackled the situation by hiring interior designer Jennifer Corredor. Never defensive, he let her have run of the field. “He’d say, ‘Jen, do your thing,’” she says. And she did it well. The first order of the day was to get a lay of the land and a feel for what he wanted. For his primary residence, Tulloch chose a home in Pinecrest, Florida. — a great family neighborhood known for its schools and ample lot sizes. “His lot is huge,” Corredor says. “He could practice his game there if he wanted.” A laidback feeling permeates the suburban village, where mostly Mediterranean homes intermix with a few modern styles. With views toward the pool and a landscaped yard, Tulloch’s 10,000-square-foot home touches on both, a Mediterranean exterior with chic contemporary interiors. Step inside, where high ceilings and a sculptural stairway with oak treads and linear spindles immediately capture the eye. “Knowing he was more inclined toward an uncluttered look, and taking into consideration his age and lifestyle, I naturally took the path of choosing more modern furnishings,” the designer says. In the dining room, Tulloch specifically asked for a round table and Corredor found “Xilos Simplice” by Maxalto, a table that seats six to eight and has a Lazy Susan. And just past the stairway, two armless chairs from Calligaris and a semi-round sofa shape the living room. In keeping with Tulloch’s desire for a simple no-fuss lifestyle, leather is often used for upholstery. “He preferred wipe-able areas,” she says. “Nearly everything in the living room is clad in leather.” An architecturally striking, oak-coffered ceiling warms the family room, while Saturnia marble flooring grounds the space in cool comfort. “Since it’s just off the kitchen, this relaxed space provides the perfect place for family and friends to congregate — somewhere to hang out,” Corredor says. The deep-seated sofa wrapped in tan leather and Minotti armchairs in white join a pair of linen-clad ottomans for ample seating. With eight bedrooms in the home, there was “plenty of space to repurpose,” Corredor says. “Five are used for sleeping quarters, but the others have been converted into a billiard room, a home office and the memorabilia room.” On the first floor, the billiard room is set for fun and entertainment with doors that open to the pool area. The memorabilia room presented quite a challenge. Undaunted, Corredor delved into a seemingly never-ending collection of mementos to create a tribute to Tulloch’s career. “His team colors are blue and white, so we used those colors in this space,” she says. In a nod to Tulloch’s career on and off the field, his home office displays awards, recognition plaques and photos from his foundation. A Copenhagen desk, Herman Miller chair and leather-topped credenza further an aura of masculinity. All about relaxation, the master bedroom would not be complete without its own sitting area for viewing sports updates or late-night movies. Here, lounge chairs recline to create the perfect spot for Tulloch to put his feet up and watch TV. “He wanted it to be really comfortable,” Corredor says A total redo was required in the master bath, where the now 12-foot-long shower is a far cry from those in a locker room. “This bath is more like a launching pad to get you going in the morning,” Corredor says. “All in all, it’s a fun, warm and beautiful environment,” the designer says. “I wanted to create something unique, that would make my client proud and happy.” In Tulloch’s world, that’s a touchdown.

Nestled in the heart of Boulder, this 1950s ranch home was thoughtfully transformed to embrace modern living while honoring the charm and character of the neighborhood. The client wished for their home to become a place of gathering and community. This design embraces the open-concept floor plan by dissolving boundaries and encouraging organic interactions between the spaces within the home and with the surrounding landscape. At the heart of this transformation stands a strategically positioned wood-burning stove, which can be enjoyed from the dining or living areas, perfect for cozy winter nights. The kitchen dining space emerges as the vibrant epicenter of this family-friendly home with a fluid transition to the patio and garden. Vaulted ceilings accentuated with skylights illuminate the space with natural light, creating an airy, expansive feel; while the French oak flooring introduces a touch of grounding warmth and nature. The bedroom wing, intentionally secluded, offers an intimate sanctuary. En-suite bathrooms feature hints of luxury, including a steam shower and a soaking tub, elevating the space for an indulgent spa experience. Beyond the aesthetics, the fire-wise design includes non-combustible exterior materials, defensible space, and closed soffits. This fully electric home also prioritizes sustainability with features such as electric vehicle and solar power readiness, water-conserving landscaping, and an aging-in-place layout. Collaboration was key in transforming this house into the “forever home“ the couple envisioned and can now enjoy for many years to come - Photography by Dane Cronin

Designed to protect expansive outdoor living spaces, this dual-purpose kinetic shielding provides Category 5 HVHZ wind-load defense and daily UV control at the push of a button. The housing and tracks are architecturally integrated to completely disappear when retracted, ensuring the estate's uninterrupted sightlines are never compromised.

In back, a pre-existing brick patio offers ember resistance between the the home and office structures. Contained succulents in the space are on casters. This speeds their relocation on red flag days and in storms that might bring more water than the drought tolerant plants prefer. The furnishings would also be stored on red flag days. A gravel ember resistant zone sits under a window added to the home to offer more views of the garden after its initial renovation. Here again, the open space speeds home maintenance.

During the January 2025 LA Fires, wood fences were one of the top 2 sources for home ignition, according to a CAL FIRE + IBHS after-fire assessment. Should the wood fence here ignite, this metal portion would not transfer fire to the home.

The rustic-contemporary residence was designed to blend into the environment. Designer touches, including steel-framed windows, fractured black flagstone floors, reclaimed oak walls, and tinted custom plaster designed to mimic local Aspen bark can be found throughout the home. Other highlights include a granite wood-burning fireplace, glass walls that open up to expansive terraces, a floating steel plate staircase, a surround-sound media room, and a primary sanctuary with a private rooftop garden and decks offering panoramic views.

Porch Enclosure using Pella Architect Series Casement & Awing Windows with Sun-Defense Glazing, and lots of custom interior trim work, turned this unused open porch into a beautiful room with a view.

Your home’s roof is one of the most important parts of its entire structure. It’s responsible for protecting all of your home and maintaining its well-being. Your roof is the first piece of defense you have from moisture damage, which can easily make its way into the ground near your home and ruin your foundation. Your roof helps shed water away from your walls, which could otherwise become covered in mold, mildew, or rust. And it plays a huge role in your home’s level of energy efficiency. So if there are any problems with your roof, it’s important that you hire a Grand Rapids roof repair specialist you know you can trust to get the job done right. Whether there’s a shingle missing from your roof or you need an entire roof replacement, our Grand Rapids roof repair specialists will make sure that you’re getting the highest quality workmanship there is. Above Roofing & Exteriors has been working in the area since 1996 and professional quality roof repairs are our specialty. We’ve built our reputation on consistently providing our customers with thorough, accurate repairs and quality, professional service.
