Window and Door Replacement Project as part of this homes transformational renovation. We replaced the entry door with a solid maple wood door. Clear glass with SDL bars and 1 panel. Replaced the old aluminum windows with energy efficient, locally made vinyl windows. Black framed windows on the interior and exterior give this home a modern farmhouse look. Casements allow for maximum view, airflow as well as being easy to open and close.

Designing an efficient laundry can save you time and effort. A clothes rod offers space for hanging items and make it easy for laundry to go from the dryer to the countertop for folding.

Modern Shingle This modern shingle style custom home in East Haddam, CT is located on the picturesque Fox Hopyard Golf Course. This wonderful custom home pairs high end finishes with energy efficient features such as Geothermal HVAC to provide the owner with a luxurious yet casual lifestyle in the Connecticut countryside.

The size of the deck was increased substantially, and is much better suited for a young family. The laundry/mudroom addition now provides direct access into the home and to the garage. Horizontal fiber cement and cedar sheathing replaced the vertical batten boards. New windows and air sealing of the exterior walls are energy efficient improvements that provide superior comfort and energy savings.

While keeping the exterior intact, this 815 square foot freestanding, Edwardian home was gutted and re-framed by Michael Merrill Design Studio to accommodate a clean, crisp, ultramodern design. Small and compact, the new layout widened the existing gallery while also making the residence's only closet more efficient and accessible. Barn doors help to accentuate the height of the residence's ceiling. The bathroom's entry was moved from the kitchen to the gallery. The details help to make the bathroom, which is just over 50 square feet, feel quite spacious. Lastly, custom cabinetry in the chef's kitchen maximizes storage while providing a clean, contemporary feeling. (2006-2008) Photos © John Sutton Photography

The interior entry was designed to create a calm, welcoming first impression through a refined palette of soft tones and natural materials. An oversized custom metal pivot door establishes a bold architectural statement upon arrival, while flat panel wood cabinetry and a built-in bench provide warmth and functional storage within the entry sequence. Adjacent to the foyer, a sculptural steel and wood staircase rises through a dramatic double-height space, drawing natural light deep into the home through a large feature window. A statement light fixture suspended within the stairwell acts as a sculptural focal point, enhancing the vertical volume and adding a sense of elegance and movement to the space. The layered combination of steel, wood, and light creates an entry experience that feels both modern and inviting, thoughtfully designed by H2D Architecture + Design.

Foyer - large transitional carpeted foyer idea in Boston with gray walls and a white front door

This project was a renovation of an 1824 antique farmhouse in Fairfield, CT. Additions that were constructed in the 1940's were removed, portions of the original structure including the roof and framing were selectively demolished in order to maintain the charm and beauty of the original home. Three additions were carefully designed to complement the remaining original structure and meet the space and function requirements of the homeowners. The additions include a new lower level playroom an au-pair bedroom, and additional mechanical space. The first floor received a new kitchen, living room, great room and mud room as well as two powder rooms. The second floor is outfitted with a new bedroom, laundry room, master bedroom suite and balcony. The renovated space includes the dining room, study, butler's pantry, entry hall stair and two bedrooms. Finally, new electrical and energy efficient mechanical systems and windows and doors were installed throughout the home. Starting with the main entry at the north side of the house, the home was totally renovated inside and out. The entire exterior of the home was restored. A new entrance portico was constructed while incorporating the original entry stoop. A custom hand built balustrade was installed on all of the balcony rail areas. Inside the dining room, the colonial feel with oversized fireplace was maintained, and the original wide-plank pine boards were reused to keep the warmth and charm of the original room intact. The main entry ceiling was removed to create space open to the second floor. This space was adorned with a wonderful antique pendant fixture which now hangs from the second floor ceiling. Two arched stained glass doors were purchased from an architectural salvage shop and installed to separate the Entry from the Study.

The owners, inspired by mid-century modern architecture, hired Klopf Architecture to design an Eichler-inspired 21st-Century, energy efficient new home that would replace a dilapidated 1940s home. The home follows the gentle slope of the hillside while the overarching post-and-beam roof above provides an unchanging datum line. The changing moods of nature animate the house because of views through large glass walls at nearly every vantage point. Every square foot of the house remains close to the ground creating and adding to the sense of connection with nature.

“I fell in love with the motor court and entry,” says Brunn. “Back at the site, I started with a motor court, and the bridge evolved because of the structure. I could go right over the river instead of biasing the whole house on one side.” The river forms a natural division for public and private spaces in the residence, marking the point where one circulation transitions into another: “Instead of a first floor and second floor, you think of it in terms of length.”
