Entryways set the stage for what to expect once inside any space. The existing risers up to the terrace garden were jagged, wildly mismatched in size and quite foreboding. Our solution was simple; recreate a more flowing, rhythmic set of steps that are safe and visually pleasing. Accented with low, arched pony walls on either side and recessed step lights in the vertical face of each step, this new entry provides for a safe and beautiful short trip to the upper view terrace garden.

PA Landscape Group INC http://www.palandscapegroup.com Project Entry: Yellow Breeches Residence 2014 PLNA Awards for Landscape Excellence Winner Category: Hardscaping-Residential $60,000-$120,000 Award Level: Bronze Photo Description: At this Yellow Breeches Residence our hardscape project went hand in hand with an addition to the back of the house, not uncommon. However, the new addition was designed in such a way that it created one opportunity to integrate an outdoor kitchen and living area into the design. With the pool already in place and the location of the house against a mountain side, after the addition was built it would cut off all access to add out living space in the future. So with careful thought and planning we set out to make sure that nothing was forgotten, from a kitchen area for congregating and preparing meals, to creating adequate patio space for entertaining, to assuring that the area was drained properly. The materials for the project were staged 6 months in advance of them being installed while the addition was being constructed and drainage work and base preparation for paving happened before the construction for the addition started. The homeowners’ goal was to add an outdoor living space that had an updated feel, while still feeling as if it fit behind this mountainside home. The blending of the refined look of the Unilock Umbriano paver with the border of natural river stone was our way of meeting their request. Gravel-lock was applied to the gravel border so that it could act as spill over patio space when entertaining large groups. Boulders where used to retain grade where needed and keep with the natural feel. Accent boulders were added to the slope to blend existing with the new. Natural slab step where used as the transition between the upper patio space and pool surround. LED low voltage lighting was used to accent the plant material and structures as well as make the space usable for the evening hours. The lighting was installed up the mountainside to stretch out the landscape at night and give the landscape depth. In the end the project exceeded the homeowners’ expectations and it is the most used room in the house we are told. Photo Credit: Dimitri Ganas

A Heartfelt Kitchen A modern kitchen is more than a cooking space—it’s the welcoming core of your home. In 2025, kitchen designs marry functionality with warmth, natural beauty, and personal expression. 1. Warm Natural Materials

• Earthy woods like walnut, oak, and bamboo enrich the visual texture and add warmth to cabinetry, islands, and shelving.
• Stone surfaces—marble, quartz, soapstone—deliver durability and timeless appeal in counters and backsplashes.
• Eco-conscious finishes and reclaimed elements bring character and long-lasting quality.

2. Bold, Living Color Palettes

• Move beyond white and gray: contemporary kitchens favor deep greens, navy blues, terracottas, and soft taupes.
• Two-tone cabinet schemes—mixing moodier lower cabinets with light upper ones—add drama and balance.
• Consider bold cabinetry or painted islands paired with neutral walls to anchor the palette.

3. Clever Storage & Hidden Utility

• Expect built-in cabinetry solutions: pull-out pantries, toe-kick drawers, corner organizers, integrated sinks, and appliance garages.
• Conceal dishwashers and refrigerators behind matching panels for a clean, polished look.
• These smart features make kitchens more functional and visually serene.

4. Dual Kitchens & Sculleries

• Luxury homes increasingly include a secondary “dirty” kitchen, or scullery, to handle prep and mess out of sight.
• This keeps the main space pristine for entertaining while blending function and elegance seamlessly.

5. Islands & Cook’s Tables as Hubs

• Islands serve multiple roles: prep stations, dining surfaces, coffee bars, or beverage centers.
• Floating or furniture-inspired cook’s tables fit lighter spaces while still offering storage and usability.
• Material mixes—wood, terrazzo, stone—make islands focal and functional.

6. Curves, Fluting & Organic Forms

• Cabinets and islands with rounded corners or fluted panels soften visual lines and add sculptural interest.
• Curved work islands and edges elevate a kitchen from purely practical to artful and inviting.

7. Bold Textures & Material Mixes

• Combine textures—ribbed wood panels, carved stone counters, matte cabinetry—to build visual richness and tactility.
• Full‑height stone backsplashes (sometimes called “countersplash”) create a unified, clean aesthetic.
• Layered materials support a timeless yet expressive design.

8. Statement Lighting & Layered Illumination

• Oversized pendants, sleek LED strips, metallic chandeliers, or sculptural fixtures double as decor.
• Layer light sources—ambient overhead lighting, focused under-cabinet lamps, and accent fixtures—to set mood and function.
• Natural light through windows and skylights remains key to ambiance and energy efficiency.

9. Sustainability & Green Tech

• Eco‑friendly materials—reclaimed wood, recycled stone, or bamboo—support conscious living.
• Smart appliances conserve water and energy while offering connectivity (voice control, smart fridges, app‑enabled cooktops).
• Low‑VOC paints, compost zones, and recycling solutions support both style and wellness.

10. Ergonomic & Efficient Layouts

• Kitchens built around the classic work triangle (sink, stove, fridge) optimize workflow and reduce unnecessary movement.
• Open or zoned layouts support multitasking and social cooking.
• Universal design features—adjustable counters, soft-close drawers—ensure comfort and long-lasting usability.

Design Style Concepts A. Cozy Natural Retreat Warm wood cabinets in sage or taupe. A stone countersplash flows into the full-height backsplash. Rounded-edge island with brass pendants. Potted herbs and open shelving add life and color. B. Elegant Contrast & Depth Deep navy lowers, light upper cabinets, clean stone counters. Two-tone cabinetry adds dimension. Mixed-metal hardware in gold or polished nickel adds shine. Moody lighting enhances drama. C. Minimalist Function with a Curve Handleless, soft-gray cabinetry meets flowing island form. Mattes and warm under-cabinet lighting enhance texture. Integrated appliances and open shelving sustain an airy feel. Quick Tips at a Glance

• Material harmony: balance tactile woods, stone surfaces, and subtle metals.
• Color with intention: jewel tones or soft earth hues create focal interest.
• Opt for hidden storage: it keeps spaces uncluttered without sacrificing accessibility.
• Design islands for dual roles: they are both workspaces and social centers.
• Light with layers and style: combine task, ambient, and accent lighting.
• Incorporate greenery: herb racks or plants deliver freshness and natural life.

Why This Style is Here to Stay Modern kitchen design blends warmth, sustainability, and longevity. It’s not about fleeting trends—it’s about creating a space that feels personal, functional, and safe. Whether you love cozy, organic kitchens or sleek, minimalist designs with personality, these trends offer both timelessness and individuality. In summary: Your 2025 kitchen should be inviting, efficient, and expressive—built around thoughtful layouts, beautiful materials, curated color, functional innovation, and eco-conscious details. It’s where aesthetics meets everyday ease.

Our client had been using the same kitchen for 20 years and was ready for a fresh, modern update. Along with a desire for aesthetic change, they also wanted a more functional and efficient space. To bring their vision to life, we replaced their outdated wooden-style, low cabinets with sleek, contemporary designs. The dark and uninviting countertops and flooring were swapped for lighter, more refreshing tones, instantly brightening up the space. At the client's special request, we designed a sophisticated European-style kitchen featuring elegant gray cabinets, creating a refined and modern ambiance. To enhance the luxurious feel, we incorporated bold black fixtures, including a stylish sink, faucet, and handles, adding a striking contrast to the space. The flooring was upgraded with high-quality LVT, carefully selected to complement the new cabinetry and overall design. The result? A stunning, functional, and inviting kitchen that exceeded our client’s expectations. They were absolutely thrilled with the transformation and delighted with our exceptional service.

With their unique design and appearance, Chicology Free-Stop Cordless Zebra Roller Shade is the shade of choice for those who are bold. Zebras are dual-layered shades that enable you to easily switch between sheer and privacy. Simply pull the shade slightly for sheer, to enjoy beautiful light effects and the outside view, and for privacy, to create peace of mind in your home. A hard cassette valance comes included, and the Free-Stop cordless mechanism is precise and smooth. Unlike other spring roller mechanisms, Free-Stop works smoothly, the way you'd expect. No need to tug, simply pull or lift the shade with the lift of a finger. Ideal homes with small children and pets; our shade meets and exceeds ANSI child safety regulations. This shade is durable and ideal for kitchen, bathroom, office, bedroom, garage, den, family room, nursery, and more. The installation is a quick 3-step process. Capable of inside or outside mount. For all mounts, a half inch is deducted on the width for a snug fit. A minimum of 3-inches depth is required for inside mount. Note: there is about an inch gap between fabric and valance to allow for the cordless mechanism.
