Winner of a NYC Landmarks Conservancy Award for historic preservation, the George B. and Susan Elkins house, dating to approximately 1852, was painstakingly restored, enlarged and modernized in 2019. This building, the oldest remaining house in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, has been recognized by the NYC Landmarks Commission as an Individual Landmark and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The house was essentially a ruin prior to the renovation. Interiors had been gutted, there were gaping holes in the roof and the exterior was badly damaged and covered with layers of non-historic siding. The exterior was completely restored to historically-accurate condition and the extensions at the sides were designed to be distinctly modern but deferential to the historic facade. The new interiors are thoroughly modern and many of the finishes utilize materials reclaimed during demolition.

This walk-in pantry was thoughtfully designed to combine everyday functionality with clean, modern style. Open shelving and built-in lower storage create an organized, highly accessible space for cookware, serving pieces, pantry items, and kitchen essentials, while the long countertop provides generous workspace for baking, meal prep, and small appliances. Connected to a built-in desk area overlooking wooded views, this pantry functions as both a practical prep space and an elegant extension of the home’s modern organic kitchen design.

The dream is couple had was to remove the wall between the living room and the kitchen. This extensive remodel to this couple's upscale home in Carlsbad. We are always in favor in going beyond the basic shaker style cabinetry. We used Bellmont cabinetry lineage cabinetry door style, an upscale shaker is how we describe it to our client. We used quartz countertops with a waterfall end. Beach inspired kitchen design with stainless steel kitchen appliances and large expansive counter tops. Multi windows throughout this home give this kitchen a very open feeling. The kitchen has 2 sinks, one farm sink on the island. The island houses a wine cooler, microwave drawer and of course the basic sink essentials.

Our MOSS customers are extensive world travelers and admirers of architecture. They knew that they wanted to remodel their more traditional Ashburn home to reflect their desire for contemporary and modern elements, not only in their kitchen but also with the addition of a new family room space that would lead to the backyard. The homeowners worked with an architect directly to design the addition that MOSS executed off the back of their home’s kitchen – it was meant to be a unique contrast to the existing home’s structure while flowing naturally from the original space and was also meant to be used essentially year-round with the doors open or closed. Specific details, including the retractable window from the kitchen to the new family room addition, were added to create the options of multi-use capabilities of the home’s various spaces. Overall, the remodel has given the home the transformation the homeowners longed for and envisioned on their travels.
