The project is located in Chantilly, VA in the rear yard of a new home and was virtually a blank slate. The Chantilly Entertaining Terrace space is elevated off the existing grade by approximately three feet allowing direct access by the existing French doors. The space incorporates a built-in outdoor kitchen complete with gas grill, storage and a refrigerator. The grill faced in local chocolate grey stone and topped by a honed Virginia Mist locally quarried granite. The cabinetry and appliances are all low maintenance stainless steel. The terrace is large enough for everyday dining area along with a lounge space that includes a custom built-in gas fire table with the base faced in same stone as grill and the same Virginia Mist honed granite. The terrace spaces backs up to a natural wooded area so it was determined that an open railing system was important to preserve the views. So a custom hammered metal and tempered glass railing system was designed to allow view and add an elegant solution. Landscape lighting is subtly placed below the stone pier caps to provide ambient light and highlight the stone work at the same time. The unique problem was locating a granite that was dark blending with the other masonry and did not heat up and crack in full sun-exposure and would also winter well in an exterior application. The granite grill counter top and fire table top all had to be replaced due to this issue. Model: Linear Burner System Outdoor Architect: J.

This unique opportunity to design a new home in Millport was one which JAM Architects relished. The location of the site on a hill on the outskirts of the village presented an opportunity to design a new two bedroom home taking advantage of the views of the ocean. The unusual floorplan design with a ‘kink’ at the centre point of the building is as a result of this with the front of the home orientated to address the street and the rear half positioned to ensure the best views from the corner window in the livingroom and the master bedroom window. As a result of a recent accident our client for this project was unfortunately left with some mobility issues and our brief was therefore to design a two bedroom home with all the primary accomodation on the ground floor, with a studio space, guest bedroom and guest shower room on the first floor. The ground floor consists of a open plan kitchen, dining and living room with direct access to a generous outside patio area. In addition to this living space there is also a utility room, w.c, master bedroom and ensuite bathroom. On the first floor our client was also keen to take advantage of the sea views from this elevated position and a sheletered balcony area has been incorporated adjacent to the studio space.
