The 2,400 s.f. net-zero corten house occupies a quarter-acre site transected by a small creek. Platted as a legal lot-of-record in the area’s original subdivision in 1910, the site remained undeveloped due to steep terrain and difficulties crossing the creek for access. Additionally all areas of the site are within the creek’s 25’, 50’ and 75’ riparian stream buffers. By necessity, the house, with considerable jurisdictional involvement, was constructed entirely within the 75’ stream buffer. Bridge/drive design complying with City of Atlanta Watershed regulations and State of Georgia EPD criteria was an essential component in realizing the project.

There was little difficulty in finishing a successful project and no disruption to the typical fabrication/installation process. Greg Keller simply cut the panels to size on location and placed them between the substrate and the slab.

This project, sitting on a little more than 3.5 acres on Rivercrest was completed in 3 years with a total square footage of more than 26,000 square feet. Typically modern homes are smaller. At a certain size, usually around 4,000 square feet, the difficulty with modern or contemporary architecture becomes scale, and the minimalist idea gets lost. Whenever you get to this scale of house at over 26,000 square feet, this problem adds a layer of complexity. Connie Anderson Photography

This used to be the entrance to the apartment in this duplex apartment, now we built a panel wall hinged on invisible hinges.

Living Room - Client contacted Staged to Sell or Dwell to redesign a living room. With such a large space, the client had difficulty with scale and quantity of furniture, making the room appear empty.

The clients were having difficulty melding both of their design styles, so they asked Mussman Design to assist them. While Greg is more contemporary, Seleda is more traditional in her design aesthetic. This space reflects a nod to both clients particular wishes. Photo: Stan Mussman

There were a few difficulties in making this kitchen any better than how it was. There was a separate staircase that had access to the second floor which was located in the kitchen. This left just enough room to push the dining room to one side. Then, there was the porch. A really nice panoramic view of the back, but was somehow under-used by the family during the summer months. Then, it was the size of the kitchen. It simply was way too small for a growing family, and while it had a peninsular in place, the flow just didn’t work. I remember watching them one day demonstrating how awkward it was using the kitchen. We got it! We had our marching orders to go and figure out how to make this kitchen work for this family. Everything in the room was fair play. The design was done to make the kitchen very open. For a few ideas, we incorporated the porch in the kitchen by using the nana wall idea but it ended up being too cost prohibitive to do so. We then decided to do a permanent fix by using a commercial glass wall application. Once we figured that out, we moved back inside and removed the staircase. This gave us two added benefits. One allowed us to really reconfigure the kitchen and the other opened up the second floor for a huge built in closet system. We relocated the windows, added a fire place with a built In TV above. From there, it was onto the kitchen itself which contained a huge Island with seating, large kitchen sink and built in appliances which was set up in a way to take advantage of the new layout. We re-positioned the kitchen facing the beautiful views outside rather than looking towards a wall. Now, when you enter the house up the entry stairs, the kitchen now draws you into the magnificent new open space. This is now setup for entertaining, relaxation, hanging out and most of all, preparing meals in a room where you only have to leave if you want to. This one was all about the design. Design was what made this space. Setting this space up for success was crucial, and this kitchen is a great example of how design can cover a multitude of sins in Kitchen designs. … Just close your eyes for a second and imagine waking up one winter morning and having a cup of coffee and watching the snow fall through those huge windows, leaning up against those 3D feature walls while watching the kids sitting around the table enjoying those warm radiant heated floors in this spacious kitchen…..

These clients fell in love with this home immediately when they saw it on the market, and quickly made the offer. From the unique lighting, retro architectural details, and view of the cascades, this home was full of potential to be remodeled to fit the lifestyle and personality of it’s new owners. Through the design process, we identified the aspects of the home that these owners loved, such as the Living Room soffit, grasscloth wallpaper, floating staircase and outdoor-feel basement. We then pinpointed the difficulties that the floor plan and materials presented for their lifestyle, such as the closed-off/compartmentalized floor plan, shag carpet in the living room, outdated finishes, lack of wood, and a newer kitchen that was an outlier within the style of the house. The finished product is a magazine-worthy transformation that thoughtfully unifies the owner’s personal style and the home’s retro roots.

Living in Florida was wonderful but our clients missed seeing their daughter and her family. They missed spending time with their adorable grandchildren. With almost four acres of land to work with, they decided to bring the two families together. We encountered a few difficulties when working on this project. Using a saw-tooth design, we were able to get the space we needed and stay within the building restriction lines. With the tough winter weather, we encountered a few delays but had to meet the target date as our clients were moving up from the south and needed their new home to be move-in ready. Making selections in person can be tough and most of their selections were made from five state's away. Topped with CertainTeed Shingles, this two-story brick and Hardie Plank addition is trimmed with dental moulding and blends seamlessly with the existing home. BF Rich windows and slider allow ample light. An Azek composite deck with stairs offers easy access to the backyard and the pool area. The open kitchen and family room are the heart of this home. Armstrong laminate in white wash walnut unifies the rooms. In the kitchen, gorgeous Norcraft Copenhagen Maple cabinetry, stylish granite countertops, and the Bellavinita Tile backsplash are stunning. In the family room, two 30" wide niches were custom built on either side of the gas fireplace for pictures, knick-knacks, and plants. They add charm and distinction. The master bath and powder room both have Norcraft vanities topped with granite and under-mount sinks. The master bath is adorned with American Olean tile and a strip of Marazzi Crystal Stone offsets. The niche, grab bar and corner seat all add convenience. Moen and Kohler products were used throughout the remodel. The suite offers many storage options - from the walk-in bedroom closet, cabinetry, attic and basement. Everything came together beautifully. The quality of construction is exemplary and the addition is amazing. We stayed within their budget and significantly increased the value of this property. Our clients are thrilled with their beautiful new in-law suite and very happy to be near their family once again.
