The exterior of what looks like a vernacular Hamptons shingle cottage, designed by architect Blaze Makoid, is intentionally deceiving. For the interiors, Axis Mundi typically decided not to play by the rules. Instead of de rigeur nautical artifacts, floppy sofas and wicker furniture, the firm responded to Makoid’s all-white interior envelope by injecting rooms with comfortable modern elegance that’s more contemporary Cap Ferrat than Eastern Long Island. Clean furniture silhouettes—from Cassina, Poltrona Frau and B&B Italia—a Massimo Vitali beach scene, a Moooi chandelier and industrial finishes (such as the steel of the fireplace surround and the anodized aluminum of a sleek Bulthaup kitchen) spark a creative tension between indoors and out. The gray palette provides a quiet backdrop for the nature outside, except for the master suite, where custom oak panels and blue shades create a reassuring warmth conducive to sleep.

The New American Remodeled Home will be showcased during the 2017 International Builders Show NAHB International Builders’ Show® in Orlando, featuring Boral Saxony 900, Slate Tile in White and a Boral Cool Roof System for maximum energy efficiency. The New American Remodeled Home® 2017 (TNARH) provides a definitive then-and-now contrast that exemplifies just how superior today’s building products and techniques are compared to those of the past. Helmed by the Phil Kean Design Group—an award-winning remodeling firm based in Winter Park, Fla.—TNARH began as a 3,834-square-foot home with typical 1980s style. However, beyond its stucco quoins, mauve carpet and a closed-off kitchen, the home featured 10-foot ceilings and a concrete block foundation that would provide a workable canvas to aptly showcase the latest innovations in home building. The home was gutted to the studs, reconfigured throughout and given an all-new look with contemporary, island-style architecture. The end result is a 4,631-square-foot home that is not only more modern and attractive than the original, but one that is much stronger and significantly more energy efficient. Built to today’s standards, the home is projected to save more than $1,500 in annual energy costs.

This beautiful new construction craftsman-style home had the typical builder's grade front porch with wood deck board flooring and painted wood steps. Also, there was a large unpainted wood board across the bottom front, and an opening remained that was large enough to be used as a crawl space underneath the porch which quickly became home to unwanted critters. In order to beautify this space, we removed the wood deck boards and installed the proper floor joists. Atop the joists, we also added a permeable paver system. This is very important as this system not only serves as necessary support for the natural stone pavers but would also firmly hold the sand being used as grout between the pavers. In addition, we installed matching brick across the bottom front of the porch to fill in the crawl space and painted the wood board to match hand rails and columns. Next, we replaced the original wood steps by building new concrete steps faced with matching brick and topped with natural stone pavers. Finally, we added new hand rails and cemented the posts on top of the steps for added stability. WOW...not only was the outcome a gorgeous transformation but the front porch overall is now much more sturdy and safe!
