Designed to serve more than one purpose, this room functions as the home’s everyday living room while also providing a polished setting for occasional client meetings. A textured-glass pocket door allows the room to be closed for privacy when needed while continuing to filter light between spaces. When open, the door disappears neatly into the wall, restoring an easy connection to the rest of the home.

Inspiration for a mid-sized coastal l-shaped dark wood floor enclosed kitchen remodel in Boston with an island, a farmhouse sink, white cabinets, flat-panel cabinets, marble countertops, white backsplash, ceramic backsplash and stainless steel appliances

The back deck and garage was designed to accommodate an active families needs. Dining and grilling space close to the house for every day use, and an open rooftop space with plenty or serving and flexible space for the families ever changing needs. The deck was made with IPE decking, and the clients are going to let it grey out rather than try to oil it yearly. The grey color will contrast perfectly with the polished stainless steel cable railings. The pergola has two areas with permanent shade panels. One area is completely covered with aluminum roofing to keep the young area dry, while the other side has loved shade panels made out of cedar to let light and air through, while also blocking the to afternoon sun. The planters are position to bock unwanted views and also to define exterior rooms.
