Inspiration for a mid-sized timeless guest bedroom remodel in DC Metro

From its English-style conservatory to its wealth of French doors, this impressive family home - at once stately, yet welcoming - ushers the vitality of its premiere urban setting into historically-inspired interiors. Here, soaring ceilings, inlaid floors, and marble-wrapped, walnut-paneled, and mirror-clad walls honor the luxurious traditions of classic European interior architecture. Naturally, symmetry is its muse, evinced through a striking collection of fine furnishings, splendid rugs, art, and accessories - augmented, all, by unexpectedly fresh bursts of color and playfully retro silhouettes. Formal without intimidation -or apology- it personifies the very finest in gracious city living. Photos by Nathan Kirkman http://nathankirkman.com/

This design colloboration with Castlecomb Projects seemlessly integrates this contempory design into a 70-year-old French Chateau-style home. Every detail of this design was meticulously specified down to the selection of log used for the veneer. Concrete was specified for the 11 x 6 foot island to avoiding the need for seams.

The effort to create an intimate estate with this Arts and Crafts residence involved extensive interaction with architects, engineers, and clients. Key program elements were strong connections to the house architecture within the landscape, formal entry, pool terracing w/ multiple entertaining spaces, and the creation of strong sightlines from the key house elements. The front drive was carefully routed around existing mature trees that had specific tree preservation methods such as vertical mulching, root injections, and root pruning were undertaken as best management practices. The drive, bluestone chip and seal with a granite curb, brought the architecture into the landscape by playing off colors in the slate roof to further tie everything together. Also flanking the front drive, is a pseudo ha-ha wall that plays homage to its French/English roots. Landscapes overall were kept relatively formal and simple in the front to blend with the architecture and allow the client to make use of annual bedding areas as they found appropriate. In the rear, most elements incorporated simple hedge rows, with accents at the corners. A key sightline from the rear turret across the pool was the main focus and centerline that most elements got their symmetry. With this view, it was deemed important to create a focal at the other end. A rear rose garden flanks either side of the pool house giving a strong focal point across the pool area. The backyard had the space, but the overall topography and programming elements to create the specific outdoor rooms that the client was requesting, took extensive foresight and planning. The client was looking for spaces to relax in all months of the year, this was accomplished by upper patio spaces near the exterior fireplace and dining room for cooler months and an outdoor kitchen area closer to the pool for summer months.
