This lower level renovation started out as a simple project. The family wanted to install a home theater in their unfinished basement. Initially it was only going to be a space with a home theater where they could occasionally watch a movie or a sporting event. Once the theater design was complete, the clients embraced the elegance of the custom cherry wood cabinetry, columns and wainscoting. In addition, by having all of the audio video components hidden out of sight, the room would have a serene, peaceful ambience. The theater design enticed the clients to finish off the rest of the basement. A bar area was designed with an antique bar, and a lounge area with a fireplace was also constructed. As the layout evolved and the placement of the bar was resolved a perfect area for a wine cellar became evident. Once the clients realized how comfortable the space would be, they understood that they would probably be spending more time in the basement than they originally anticipated. This thought led them to want two large flat panel TVs on the walls in the bar area so they could watch several events at the same time. They love the theater. The 110” screen and quality audio video system is a constant source of entertainment for the entire family. They use the entire basement frequently as a gathering point for family and friends.

Enticing forms and alluring architecture are the core concepts of the Elements collection.

Elements was awarded a Red Dot Award in 2014.

This gorgeous Mediterranean/Tuscan style home is perched on a hillside overlooking thousands of acres of Texas Hill Country. Everything about the home captures your interest and draws you in. The home was built with every room taking advantage of the incredible views. As you enter, the handmade brick ceiling entices you into the magnificent great room. Your eyes continue through the great room and are drawn to the huge picture window that looks out forever. The great room has a see through fireplace to the master bedroom, Saltillo tile floors, and a full bar with wine frig and icemaker. To the right of the foyer is a study with wooden floors, a half bath and also includes a nice size closet. To the left of the foyer is an open dining room with a cathedral ceiling and windows at the top allowing ample light to flow in. The dining room has wooden floors with a built-in buffet. The master bedroom has plush carpet, French doors that open out onto the veranda, fireplace, his/hers closets with built ins and a huge master bath complete with laundry room. The master bath has his/hers sinks with generous counter space, Jacuzzi tub and a walk- through shower with double heads. The enormous kitchen is open to the den area and also has incredible views. A large granite island houses the sink and leaves more than enough room for friends to visit while your chef is preparing the meal. Stainless steel double ovens, five burner gas stove, terracotta tile countertops with backsplash, and thermador frig and freezer. The den has a native stone fireplace and a large wall of built-ins for your T.V. and plenty of books and other décor. Saltillo tile floors cover the kitchen and den area. Next to the kitchen is a custom butler’s pantry with wood floors, terracotta tile counters, copper sink, a compact dishwasher plus a cutout into the wet bar area for ease of service. Two additional bedrooms with private baths are in the main home, with a separate 900 SF guest quarters that has a nice size living area, kitchenette, two bedrooms and a full bath. This incredible 4574+-SF estate is in a gated subdivision just minutes out of Kerrville and a stone’s throw from the eclectic Camp Verde General Store and Post Office. The home was custom built in 2004 with such attention to detail that it will stand the test of time and changing décor. The home sits on 30 acres in an area that is all wildlife exempt with superb restrictions to protect the homeowner’s investment.

A relaxing low maintenance design with Japanese features. Owners desired a grass-less design and a yard that would entice you from the house into the yard. The design features natural stone walkways and patio, a dry riverbed flowing under a wooden bridge.

The favorite room of this Massachusetts home, this study was where the homeowners spent most evenings reading by the fire. But its awkward location at the front of the house disoriented visitors and needed a more welcoming feel to match the rest of the house. Designer Julie Lyons designed the cabinetry featuring the Rittenhouse Recessed door style to custom match the color selected by the homeowners. Cabinetry wainscot panels and molding in the same moody blue wrap around the entire room with wainscot millwork detail integrated between tall book cases showcasing the homeowner’s antique book collections, as well as art pieces. Nestled, almost invisibly, into the shelving is a small study desk to work. And under the windows, integrating seamlessly with the bookcases, are benches created from wainscot panels and other cabinetry parts. A pair of glass pocket doors enhance the entrance signaling an opening to a special space, where visitors are at once intrigued and enticed into entering this new enclave, to sit, read, and visit.

Modern silhouettes, global influences, and lots of comfort—this eclectic living room has it all. The Astor sofa delivers a classic, versatile look that works with virtually any style. Lounge chairs with woven backs exude an island vibe while the Dynasty fretwork side table delivers a hint of the Far East. A hammered steel drum table in antique bronze and a hand-knotted rug inspired by global patterns add enticing textures and an authentic vibe. For neutral living room inspiration, we looked to an earthy palette of gold, black, cream, and brown.

The entrance to this wine cellar has hints of Art Nouveau style. The beautiful ginkgo leaves and iron details entice you to walk down a spiral staircase that leads down to a castle-like wine cellar.

Surrounded by trees and a symphony of song birds, this handsome Rustic Mountain Home is a hidden jewel with an impressive articulation of texture and symmetry. Cedar Shakes Siding, Large Glass Windows and Steel Cable Railings combine to create a unique Architectural treasure. The sleek modern touches throughout the interior include Minimalistic Interior Trim, Monochromatic Wall Paint, Open Stair Treads, and Clean Lines that create an airy feel. Rustic Wood Floors and Pickled Shiplap Walls add warmth to the space, creating a perfect balance of clean and comfortable. A see-through Gas Fireplace begins a journey down the Master Suite Corridor, flooded with natural light and embellished with Vaulted Exposed Beam Ceilings. The Custom Outdoor Fire-pit area is sure to entice a relaxing evening gathering. Photo Credit-Kevin Meechan
