A retired client wanted to jazz up the entrance to her home but leave the orchard, veggie beds and hardscape the way it was. Since she does all the maintenance herself, I wanted to make sure she wouldn't have too many weeds so we used the winter months to sheet mulch the area, killing the massive amount of existing weeds & enriching the hard soil. This worked beautifully. We added a flagstone pathway with Dymondia between the stones and a small area for her new bench to sit and enjoy the garden. She didn't want plants under her messy tree, so we decorated that area with pots. She has a huge deer & gopher problem which is why she hangs the white ribbons to scare away the deer from her fruit trees.

Stunning indirect lighting highlights the suede upholstered walls and hand-tufted wool carpeting of this master bedroom featuring Ron Dier accessories. Macassar Ebony enrich the bed dressed in cream and rust-colored linens. A fireplace, upholstered lounge chairs and a bench create distinct zones for rest and conversation, while arched glazed doors bring in soft light. Layered table lamps, concealed ceiling lighting and neutral wall finishes add warmth. The balanced palette gives the spacious room a comfortable, refined atmosphere.

Michael Biondo photography The kitchen remodel is part of a larger renovation of an older home with the goal of maintaining the original character on the outside, while introducing a contemporary, functionally-driven aesthetic inside. Structural modifications allow three individual rooms to be combined and for the kitchen to be connected to the outdoor patio with large sliding doors. Warm, natural materials with contrasting elements enrich the minimal space: blackened steel vs. white lacquer, smooth paneling vs. rough stone. The design challenge was to use the original wood burning fireplace chimney for cooking was a detailing challenge requiring mechanical gymnastics and custom fabrication. The old hearth is transformed into the new focal point of the space.

Kids' room - transitional kids' room idea in Chicago

Residence for Smt. Leela Location - Thripunithura, Ernakulam Area - 2500sqft Ayilyam is a story of traditions, retold. The house compliments to the traditional buildings of Tripunithara, the land of temples. This compact house is a reflection of the class, pride and ethnicity of the town. The narrow site contributes to bringing focus to the elevation of the house. The exterior wall is adorned with the traditional concept of seating - ' thinna' to bring more character and life to the house. The thinna runs around the house bridging the exterior and the interior. The casual yet minimalistic interiors are decorated with intricate detailing. The unembellished windows adorns the front elevation of the house placidly. This 4bhk house has a dining attached to a tranquil verandah with traditional pillars and seating with ambient day lighting which provides an excellent reading space. The attic space reduces heat inside the house and also provides ample amount of storage. The love for traditional elements by the client enriched the soul of this design. More the tradition, more its sanctity.

seamlessly flows into the dining and living areas, creating an open, inviting space for everyone to enjoy together. We didn't overlook the essentials – the office and laundry room are designed to keep life running smoothly while keeping you part of the family's daily hustle and bustle. The kids' rooms? We planned them with an eye on the future, choosing designs that will age gracefully as they do. The basement has been reimagined as a versatile sanctuary, perfect for both relaxation and entertainment, balancing rustic charm with a touch of elegance. The master suite is your personal retreat, leading to a peaceful outdoor area ideal for quiet moments. Its bathroom transforms your daily routine into a spa-like experience, blending luxury with tranquility. In essence, we've woven together each space to not just tell our clients' stories but enrich their daily lives with beauty, functionality, and a little outdoor magic. It's all about creating a home that grows and evolves with them. How's that for a place to call home?

This home is quint-essential perfection with the collaboration of architect, kitchen design and interior decorator. McNeill Baker designed the home, Hunt Country Kitchens (Kathy Gray) design the kitchen, and Daniel J. Moore Designs handled colors and furnishings.

Winter Wainscot Lincoln, MA Builder: D.B. Schroeder & Co. Inc. Cabinetmaker: Walter Lane, LLC design: Tim Hess and Jeff Dearing for DSA Architects Interior Design Collaborator: Tricia Upton Interiors Photographer: Greg Premru Photo Stylist: Stephanie Rossi This project started small, with the clients’ desire to remodel the existing kitchen. When our analysis of the existing conditions revealed the extent to which the house’s many previous additions had failed to enrich each other or unify the whole, the scope of work bloomed to include extensive renovations throughout the first floor. We’ve sought to bring a cohesion and clarity to this already commodious house quite beautifully sited. Much of the design attention in this project was focused on meetings and overlaps. The autonomy and dignity of individual spaces was restored with the creation and use of interstitial spaces; the spaces between. The doorway between kitchen and dining becomes a display pantry and wet bar, the entry foyer is framed with a narrower opening, and the way to the Living Room is re-shaped with a paneled deep jamb. The story is recounted in the January / February 2013 edition of New England Home.

Photographer: Agnes Jawoszek Walking the line between transitional and traditional design, this interior mixes the freshness of modern lines and elements with the classic beauty of traditional furnishings and textures. Emphasizing the height of the room is a travertine fireplace interspersed with textured limestone ledges. Adding glamor and sparkle on the opposite wall is mica wallpaper inset in panels proportioned to play off the sofa perfectly. The juxtaposition of the wallpaper to a similar paint color provides an interesting play on textures that is understated yet glamorous. Formerly a lifeless space, the use of various materials and elements mixed with a pop of color, enrich the space resulting in a stunning and elegant interior.

Our clients had this beautiful idea of creating a space that's as welcoming as it is timeless, where every family gathering feels special, and every room invites you in. Picture a kitchen that's not just for cooking but for connecting, where family baking contests and meals turn into cherished memories. This heart of the home seamlessly flows into the dining and living areas, creating an open, inviting space for everyone to enjoy together.

Set in Hancock Park, a historic residential enclave in central Los Angeles, the St. Andrews Accessory Dwelling Unit is designed in concert with an addition to the main house. Richly colored, V-groove fiber cement panels provide a visual connection between the new two-story ADU and the existing 1916 craftsman bungalow. Yet, the ADU also expresses contemporary features through its distilled sculptural form. Clean lines and simple geometry emphasize the modern gestures while large windows and pocketing glass doors allow for plenty of natural light and connectivity to the exterior, producing a kind of courtyard in relation to the main home. The compact size required an efficient approach. Downstairs, a kitchenette and living space give definition to an open floor plan. The upper level is reserved for a full bathroom and bedroom with vaulted ceilings. Polished concrete, white oak, and black granite enrich the interiors. A primary suite addition to the main house blends seamlessly with the original. Hallway arches echo the original craftsman interior, connecting the existing living spaces to the lower addition which opens at ground level to the rear yard. Together, the ADU, main house, and a newly constructed patio with a steel trellis create an indoor/outdoor ensemble. Warm and inviting project results from the careful balance of historical and contemporary, minimalist and eclectic.
