After moving from California to McLean, Virginia, this large and active family wanted to keep enjoying the outdoors throughout the year. This task required some creative space planning by Matt Sbitani of MJA Design, Inc. The goals: to let the outdoor sounds and fresh air become a part of the
family’s daily living while still keeping the bugs out. The enlarged window above the sink gives a clear view to the outdoors. To prevent the space from feeling closed in,
Sbitani also turned a single door and standard window into a glass wall that opens to the grand screened-in outdoor living space. The inviting alfresco fireplace keeps the teenagers and their friends chatting at home for hours. One of the lady of
the house’s favorite features is the unique platter display rack, showcasing works of art that are also used on a daily basis.
Keeping a large family organized can be a challenge, which is why MJA Design created a zone that incorporates the laundry area, utility closet, and coat/shoe closet—all within the kitchen area. The team accomplished this by removing the laundry room and back stairs to enlarge the space.
When friends come over to this busy household, they feel right at home, helping themselves to drinks and snacks from the refrigerator drawer. In fact, everyone feels comfortable with the open and airy atmosphere that welcomes guests to join in
the great outdoors.

The clubhouse has a large kitchen space. There is a built in stove and microwave, dishwasher, kitchen island with seating, and beautiful wood flooring. The white ship lap walls make the kitchen a bright and cheerful space. The large windows allow plenty of bright light and there are doors to open to the patio and outdoor seating alongside the pool and lake. There is space for sitting and playing checkers or chess, chatting with friends, or just relaxing and enjoying the scenic views.
