Aranelli DesignStepping into this modern kitchen is like entering a realm where elegant minimalism meets sophisticated grandeur. Dominated by the sleek simplicity of slab grey doors and the opulent allure of marble-style quartz countertops, this kitchen strikes a perfect balance between modern design and luxurious detailing.
Upon entering, your eyes are immediately drawn to the slab grey doors. Their understated hue exudes a quiet elegance that's both contemporary and timeless. The sleek, unadorned slab design speaks volumes about the modern design ethos - a celebration of clean lines, simplicity, and uncluttered aesthetics. The grey tone is neutral yet impactful, versatile enough to complement a range of color schemes while adding a hint of sophistication.
Contrasting the understated elegance of the grey slab doors, the marble-style quartz countertops introduce an element of grandeur to the kitchen. They instantly become a statement piece in the room, drawing attention with their captivating patterns and luxurious sheen. The quartz surface is not just aesthetically appealing, but also practical - it's highly durable, heat resistant, and easy to clean, embodying a perfect marriage of beauty and functionality.
The interplay between the smoky grey of the slab doors and the swirling patterns of the marble-style quartz creates a visual spectacle that's nothing short of mesmerizing. The cool tones of the grey slabs accentuate the white veins in the marble quartz, creating a seamless aesthetic flow throughout the kitchen.
State-of-the-art appliances nestle seamlessly into the slab grey units, their modern design and stainless steel finish reinforcing the room's contemporary vibe. Meanwhile, the lighting design enhances the beauty of the quartz countertops, with carefully placed pendants and under-cabinet LEDs accentuating their natural sheen and intricate patterns.
This modern kitchen, with its slab grey doors and marble-style quartz countertops, is a true testament to the idea that simplicity can be luxurious. It offers a visually stunning, highly functional space where every meal preparation becomes an indulgent experience. Here, modernity meets elegance, culminating in a kitchen that's both a pleasure to look at and a joy to use.

Robert M. Cain, ArchitectCorten® steel siding was chosen to minimize the building facades’ impact on the visual environment, its minimal maintenance requirements and elimination of long-term environmental impacts typical of other siding choices (paints, VOC emissions, cleaning functions). Corten® provides a range of LEED certifications for MR 4.1/4.2, MR 2.1/2.2, MR 5.2/5.2 credits, is 100% recyclable, is made from recycled content and considerably curtails the life-cycle enthalpy of the project’s exterior materials.

Robert M. Cain, ArchitectHolly Hill, a retirement home, whose owner's hobbies are gardening and restoration of classic cars, is nestled into the site contours to maximize views of the lake and minimize impact on the site.
Holly Hill is comprised of three wings joined by bridges: A wing facing a master garden to the east, another wing with workshop and a central activity, living, dining wing. Similar to a radiator the design increases the amount of exterior wall maximizing opportunities for natural ventilation during temperate months.
Other passive solar design features will include extensive eaves, sheltering porches and high-albedo roofs, as strategies for considerably reducing solar heat gain.
Daylighting with clerestories and solar tubes reduce daytime lighting requirements. Ground source geothermal heat pumps and superior to code insulation ensure minimal space conditioning costs. Corten steel siding and concrete foundation walls satisfy client requirements for low maintenance and durability. All light fixtures are LEDs.
Open and screened porches are strategically located to allow pleasant outdoor use at any time of day, particular season or, if necessary, insect challenge. Dramatic cantilevers allow the porches to project into the site’s beautiful mixed hardwood tree canopy without damaging root systems.
Guest arrive by vehicle with glimpses of the house and grounds through penetrations in the concrete wall enclosing the garden. One parked they are led through a garden composed of pavers, a fountain, benches, sculpture and plants. Views of the lake can be seen through and below the bridges.
Primary client goals were a sustainable low-maintenance house, primarily single floor living, orientation to views, natural light to interiors, maximization of individual privacy, creation of a formal outdoor space for gardening, incorporation of a full workshop for cars, generous indoor and outdoor social space for guests and parties.
mackmiller design+buildMs. Homeowner’s townhome Primary Bathroom was a cookie-cutter, builder-grade space that she wanted upgraded and updated. The shower tile was discolored and mildewed; the traditional vanity tile floor and tub deck were also outdated. Our client wanted an accessible bathroom she could age in place in featuring an updated, modern yet timeless and elegant design, with better storage all within a conservative budget.
The main challenge in this project was to transform the space and raise the design quotient within the requested budget. We kept the basic footprint, preserved the existing maple doors and trim, saved and re-used the bathtub, purchased a sleek pre-fabricated, vanity which included the countertop and sinks. We reserved some of the budget for high impact items, upgrading fixtures and finishes in every area. We made the shower safer and more visually open by installing a curbless, barrier-free floor, and a frameless glass shower door and panels. We extended the tub deck into the shower area which is a functioning bench and product shelf. We replaced all of the tile, faucets, hardware and accessories with sleek chrome components. A client-requested, high quality commode with a remote controlled Toto washlet seat was installed. The eye-catching color scheme, based on the new vanity and countertop is a balance of rich, dark neutrals paired with crisp whites, bright chrome fixtures, and turquoise wall paint which beautifully coordinates with the existing natural maple doors and trim.

Reico Kitchen & BathCat Neitzey of Reico Kitchen and Bath in Fredericksburg, VA, in collaboration with Abby Construction, designed a transitional kitchen design featuring Masterpiece cabinetry.
The kitchen cabinets are in the Masterpiece Gallina door style in Maple in a Dove White finish for the perimeter and a Midnight Blue finish for the island. The design also features both finishes on tall cabinets designed for pantry, display and coffee bar use.
The kitchen also includes Cambria Portrush for the countertops, full height and standard backsplashes.
“Cat knew her products and knew good design. She was a great problem solver,” said the client.
According to Cat, Abby Construction undertook the transformation of a 1951 home from traditional to modern, open, and accessible, enabling its owners to age gracefully. They reconfigured doors, walls and the façade, integrating the garage into the living space.
"The clients' construction background and design expertise positioned them as the ideal team to tackle a project of this magnitude. Throughout the process, we maintained frequent communication, meeting regularly both on-site and in the showroom. Our primary challenge arose from the evolving plan, necessitated by the structural alterations to the existing house, which impacted the future design," said Cat.
“Our primary focus was to keep the design accessible. We needed to dramatically increase the amount of storage from the original kitchen. Adding roll trays, drawers, a base microwave and a mixer pop up ensured that everything remained easily within reach.”

Debra Winston DesignHomeowner wanted to update their kitchen to make it lighter and brighter without removing the cabinets. Formerly dark stained wood cabinets were painted a soft white with the island a soft green. The dated dark granite counters and 8" backsplash were replaced with a gorgeous Vadara engineered quartz going up the entire backsplash.
Reico Kitchen & BathDesigned by Jens Bunte of Reico Kitchen & Bath, this transitional style kitchen design features Merillat Classic cabinets in the Spring Valley door style in Mist with a Desert Glaze finish except for the kitchen island cabinets, which hand finished by the clients’ contractor. The kitchen also features a Cambria Montgomery countertop on the perimeter of the kitchen and a Caesarstone London Grey Honed countertop on the kitchen island.
For Jens working with the clients was a pleasure. “Their attention to detail was such a breath of fresh air and it really was all of the little things that brought this design together and turned it into such a special space. My favorite aspects of this project really came down to the details: a custom-designed bar area that doubles as functional storage space; the use of additional doors and trim to match their recessed pantry to the rest of the kitchen and really bring the space together; the use of Honey Bronze hardware and French Wire on some of the doors to add details that impacted the overall look. They were so gracious and patient during the COVID-19 pandemic and truly embodied what it means to work as a team when it comes to the client-designer-contractor relationship.”
Added the client, “Jens was a joy to work with. We discussed budget for the project, and she guided us to the cabinet options that would work best for us. When it came to countertops, Reico’s selection was incredible. Jens kept us fully informed at every step. We love everything that she helped us with.”
