After building their first home this Bloomfield couple didn't have any immediate plans on building another until they saw this perfect property for sale. It didn't take them long to make the decision on purchasing it and moving forward with another building project. With the wife working from home it allowed them to become the general contractor for this project. It was a lot of work and a lot of decision making but they are absolutely in love with their new home. It is a dream come true for them and I am happy they chose me and Dillman & Upton to help them make it a reality. Photo By: Kate Benjamin

New Twist on Farmhouse Chic Project Details Designer: Amy Van Wie Cabinetry: Brookhaven Framed Cabinetry Wood: Maple Finishes: Perimeter – Antique White; Island – Matte Twilight Door: Kingston Recessed Inset Countertop: Perimeter – Soapstone; Island – Walnut Awards 2016 Saratoga Showcase of Homes For this stunning Showcase Home, we worked to achieve a classic farmhouse look with some new and interesting twists. To enhance a clean aesthetic, we customized the cabinet boxes to avoid any distracting seams, common with inset kitchens. But at the same time, we used decorative feet on the end cabinets and bead board accents to achieve that furniture look common in historic farmhouses. Additional nods to the farmhouse schematic include mullion glass doors, an apron front sink, beveled subway tile, turn latch knobs and bin pulls all in oiled rubbed bronze and a magnificent mushroom wood and copper custom hood.

This stunning custom designed home by MossCreek features contemporary mountain styling with sleek Asian influences. Glass walls all around the home bring in light, while also giving the home a beautiful evening glow. Designed by MossCreek for a client who wanted a minimalist look that wouldn't distract from the perfect setting, this home is natural design at its very best. Photo by Joseph Hilliard

This is not your parents kitchen from the 80's. Black is back and in a big way! The new Black Slate Suite of appliances from GE modernizes black to be matte, easy to clean and a stand out from the ubiquitous stainless steel.

Here's a recessed TV above a fireplace. This was a good example of not having to spend huge money to dress up your TV install. The builder provided a recess for the television and then built a matching picture frame that snaps in place for easy servicing. The end result is a TV above a fireplace that doesn't distract from the architectural features of the room.
