The original small 2 bedroom dwelling was deconstructed piece by piece, with every element recycled/re-used. The larger, newly built home + studio uses much less energy than the original. In fact, the home and office combined are net zero (the home’s blower door test came in at Passive House levels, though certification was not procured). The transformed home boasts a better functioning layout, increased square footage, and bold accent colors to boot. The multiple level patios book-end the home’s front and rear facades. The added outdoor living with the nearly 13’ sliding doors allows ample natural light into the home. The transom windows create an increased openness with the floor to ceiling glazing. The larger tilt-turn windows throughout the home provide ventilation and open views for the 3-level contemporary home. In addition, the larger overhangs provide increased passive thermal protection from the scattered sunny days. The conglomeration of exterior materials is diverse and playful with dark stained wood, concrete, natural wood finish, and teal horizontal siding. A fearless selection of a bright orange window brings a bold accent to the street-side composition. These elements combined create a dynamic modern design to the inclusive Portland backdrop.

We used clear glass for the cabinet doors so that it would be easy to see the beautiful glassware inside them. The textured quality of the glass gave it a more interesting appearance but didn’t hinder the visibility of the display. For the centerpiece, we used warm colors that brought out the energy of this lively and entertaining part of our client’s home. Installing stained glass for your kitchen cabinets helps to add diversity to your kitchen design because it breaks up the flat look of wooden surfaces. Stained glass helps to create an illusion of depth and it also provides brightness due to its reflective properties. Since it has an old world, almost Victorian appearance, stained glass brings a sense of elegance and refinement to your interior design. Colorado Springs Stained Glass can create beautiful custom cabinet stained glass and kitchen windows. We work closely with our clients to make sure that their design perfectly matches all of their needs and specifications. If you’re interested in installing a stained glass window for your home, please contact our office. We would love to work with you on creating a unique piece of art you and your family.

Rodwin Architecture & Skycastle Homes Location: Boulder, Colorado, USA Interior design, space planning and architectural details converge thoughtfully in this transformative project. A 15-year old, 9,000 sf. home with generic interior finishes and odd layout needed bold, modern, fun and highly functional transformation for a large bustling family. To redefine the soul of this home, texture and light were given primary consideration. Elegant contemporary finishes, a warm color palette and dramatic lighting defined modern style throughout. A cascading chandelier by Stone Lighting in the entry makes a strong entry statement. Walls were removed to allow the kitchen/great/dining room to become a vibrant social center. A minimalist design approach is the perfect backdrop for the diverse art collection. Yet, the home is still highly functional for the entire family. We added windows, fireplaces, water features, and extended the home out to an expansive patio and yard. The cavernous beige basement became an entertaining mecca, with a glowing modern wine-room, full bar, media room, arcade, billiards room and professional gym. Bathrooms were all designed with personality and craftsmanship, featuring unique tiles, floating wood vanities and striking lighting. This project was a 50/50 collaboration between Rodwin Architecture and Kimball Modern

Saturday July 18, 3:30 to 6:00pm | Lakeville Native Wildflower Meadow and Woodland Garden Larry Weaner of Larry Weaner Landscape Associates In the area surrounding Lake Wononskopomuc in northwest Connecticut, two landscapes, each distinct yet inspired by the region’s natural environment, offer insight into the design of native landscapes and the role of the landscape architect in determining the trajectory of site evolution. Once a field of barren turf located along the lake’s northern shoreline, the first site has been transformed into a mature, native meadow, with spectacular diversity and full floral display. The second site, a more recent woodland planting on the lake’s eastern shoreline, supports a landscape in an earlier stage of evolution. While evidence of establishment techniques remain visible, this season marks a distinct moment in the landscape’s advance toward full maturity. Despite their modest size, these landscapes provide a momentous occasion to better understand designed, native landscapes and their growth and evolution. Born in the mind of the designer and bearing his thumbprint, these native landscapes spring from the dance between humans and the patterns and processes of nature.

Location: New York, NY, United States This Loft was tastefully renovated back in the '90s, but was due for an update and an expansion of the kitchen and dining areas to accommodate the client's cooking skills and entertaining needs. EnlargIing the island and adding cabinetry to delineate the office, bar and dining areas was a priority. The bathroom was updated to feel like a tranquil spa with beautiful new tile, plumbing fixtures and cabinets. Our biggest challenge was coordinating the entire renovation while our client was out of town for the Summer! Photographed by: James Salomon

This is the second Classic kitchen for our restaurateur homeowner and they knew what they wanted, which was an eclectic look which matched their diverse and well travelled tastes. We started by removing the old kitchen which separated the two areas with a solid peninsula preventing direct movement from the kitchen to the table area and laid out things in a more efficient and people friendly way. We then installed custom, Benjamin Moore painted cabinetry and Luxury vinyl flooring for a maintenance free, warm wood look. Quartz countertops, better lighting and 3d Porcilain backsplash completed the look. The mix of materials and colours really makes this kitchen unique and something to enjoy for many years to come!

Exceptional Lap Siding and Cedar Shakes Installation at Rhodo Project, Victoria, BC: One of MV Construction's recent crowning achievements was the execution of an exquisite lap siding and cedar shakes installation at a residential project located in Rhodo, Victoria, BC. Our team of experienced professionals meticulously installed lap siding, a classic exterior material known for its durability and visual appeal. This siding choice seamlessly merges with the architectural spirit of the property, enhancing its appearance with a play of shadows and texture. Adding to the home's distinct style, we integrated cedar shakes into the design. These hand-split wood pieces offered an additional layer of sophistication and charm, their unique patterns and textures creating a rustic yet refined aesthetic. This project was not just about the visual appeal; our selected materials provide a formidable shield against the diverse weather conditions of Victoria, ensuring the longevity of the residence. Each piece of lap siding and every cedar shake was carefully chosen and installed with precision, contributing to the overall architectural integrity and visual harmony of the home. At MV Construction, we're proud of the expertise and commitment we bring to every project. The work we did at Rhodo reflects our dedication to delivering high-quality services that blend functional design, aesthetic appeal, and durability.

We turned this 1950's closed in/small kitchen into a luxury open concept kitchen!
