A Modern Farmhouse set in a prairie setting exudes charm and simplicity. Wrap around porches and copious windows make outdoor/indoor living seamless while the interior finishings are extremely high on detail. In floor heating under porcelain tile in the entire lower level, Fond du Lac stone mimicking an original foundation wall and rough hewn wood finishes contrast with the sleek finishes of carrera marble in the master and top of the line appliances and soapstone counters of the kitchen. This home is a study in contrasts, while still providing a completely harmonious aura.

This boys bedroom was designed in collaboration with this super cool young man down to every detail. His sense of style and attention to detail is evident . The window loft bed was designed with a nautical motif bracket design. We used some cool rope hardware on the drawers. This is a great example of style on a budget for a young teens room.

This wide-open, amazing-looking and highly functional maple wood kitchen is quite an improvement over the homeowners’ previous setup. Their old kitchen was done in dark wood with soffits, and the space was dominated by a thick brick wall. The whole space was divided in half by a peninsula with wall cabinets. Over time, the couple grew to realize that while they liked some elements of the kitchen, overall the space was not addressing their needs — particularly in terms of being functional. “The old kitchen — which was original to the house — was actually lovely,” explains the wife. “The cabinetry was very nice but it wasn’t working for us. Some cabinetry was too high for us to use. We needed more cabinet space. Overhead cabinets divided the kitchen in two. The arrangement of the cabinets and I’d say the kitchen itself were becoming more awkward for us over time.” Designer Lydia Bogle worked with the couple to open up the space, make the kitchen more functional than it was, and provide the homeowners with a light-filled kitchen in the contemporary style they prefer today. From day one, the homeowners could tell they were in good hands with Lydia and liked all the ideas she suggested to improve the space — even her idea to remove the brick wall which the couple was fond of and assumed would remain in their new kitchen. “We loved the brick façade that was in the old kitchen,” continues the wife, recalling her old kitchen. “So when Lydia visited for the first time and she came in and told us right away she wanted to take it out because there was so much wasted space behind it we were like, ‘no!’ But she was right. Just doing that alone opened up the kitchen. From there on we wanted to hear all her ideas.” Rutt Custom Cabintery Rutt Regency cabinets with full overlay in “Villa Savoye” door style.

Fond memories and classic charm guide the design for a modern family home in Old Palo Alto Even in future-oriented Silicon Valley, there are enclaves like Old Palo Alto, where time has stood still a little longer. The clients, a family of four, were drawn to the casual charm of the community, particularly the rambling landscape of a rare half-acre lot near Gamble Garden where they could build a warm and welcoming home suited to their relaxed style of living and entertaining. The two-tone gray shingle style abode features a broad front porch for taking in the afternoon breezes and greeting children as they return from school. Beneath a center gable, the sunny yellow Dutch door ushers in all who enter with a very warm welcome. Inside, bespoke details are the result of genuine collaboration between the clients and FGA. Soft ivory plaster walls, chestnut floors, and cedar-inlay ceilings frame rooms filled with custom milled built-ins like library shelves, writing desks, and window seats. Handsome wainscoting, whimsical railings, and colorful tiles are among the unique elements that wrap rooms in comfort and elicit a sense of nostalgia for the homeowners. Storybook stone fireplaces recall time spent in Carmel while hand-hewn half-round beams are inspired by vacations in New Mexico. The living room picture window is a heartfelt reminder of childhood memories made at grandmother’s house. All first-floor rooms offer immediate access to outdoor living areas including the large stone patio, lounge, and pool. This seamless extension to the vintage farm-like grounds and lush gardens signifies the authentic spirit of California’s al fresco lifestyle.
