OL + expanded this North Shore waterfront bungalow to include a new library, two sleeping porches, a third floor billiard and game room, and added a conservatory. The design is influenced by the Arts and Crafts style of the existing house. A two-story gatehouse with similar architectural details, was designed to include a garage and second floor loft-style living quarters. The late landscape architect, Dale Wagner, developed the site to create picturesque views throughout the property as well as from every room.

This award winning minimalist condo hides the entertainment system when it's not in use. The big screen smart TV, invisible surround sound & equipment rack are out of site/out of mind. A Future Automation lift moves the art at the push of a button, revealing cinema quality sound & picture. The custom built wall unit hides all the of the necessary equipment and storage space behind the fireplace and smart TV.

The Challenge: Create a rugged yet warm farmhouse feel in a high rise tower. Start with an entire 9600 gross square foot penthouse floor of raw concrete floor, walls and ceiling. Devise inventive ways to address intractable existing conditions including a plumbing layout inconsistent with our Client program, a relatively low ceiling and a massive elevator core and yet take of advantage of panoramic views of the city from all sides. For example, rather than make a bulky drywall enclosure for existing pipes that poke thru the kitchen counter, they are wrapped with antique painted galvanized sheet metal to keep sight lines around the corner as open as possible. Or, transform an unattractive and inconveniently located 24” diameter vertical duct in the middle of Samantha’s and Hannah’s (grandchildren’s) guest bedroom into part of a lovely arched top bed nook. Or, disguise a chase for above floor plumbing runs as the base for an open buffet counter. The oppressive elevator lobby was shortened; terminating in handmade glass and steel garden doors at both ends. Custom details include a groined vaulted ceiling and arched openings with stone pilasters (for future trompe-l’oeil images of a Tuscany countryside). To maximize a feeling of height, the ceilings start low and get higher as they progress to the outside walls. The Program: Create a five bedroom condo for an elderly couple with specific and different needs. Mr. likes his privacy and to stay up late into the night on the internet. He likes order. Mrs. has some physical limits that have been addressed in various ways such as shorter travel distances, a step down shower, raised dishwasher and custom cast (to ensure that they won’t rust) iron grab bars. She prefers more disorder. Spaces should be visually arresting, full of detail and easy to maintain. Private spaces include separate master bathrooms, his and her offices and a multi screened Media Room. The balance of the floor must link spaces into one continuous open room along the south and east elevations using large elements yet keeping an intimate scale, sound control and privacy. For example, a substantial fireplace made of old barn timber framing, country stone and a hammered iron grill is strategically located at the critical Southeast corner. Above, black iron offset pintel hardware allow custom double doors to hide a large flat screen TV. High technology is in place for inconspicuous yet easy use. Icon driven key pads operate lighting, window treatments, audio visual systems with multiple sources and access to movie and music databases and five HVAC zones with independent humidity controls. Outstanding Features: Exterior masonry walls have stone culled from five quarries. Sprinkled throughout are surprises - bricks with words as messages from the past, wood trimmed niches and colored glass. Glass pieces set in window corners offer bursts of color when backlit by the sun. These materials are assembled in a rough irregular fashion to look like the work of a mason from the Italian countryside. Interior ceilings and walls have overlapping layers of two plaster colors. Perimeter ceilings are made of smooth random width cedar. Rough planed cedar beams hide ductwork and allow the maximum ceiling height between them. Custom details are everywhere-consider the ten foot barn doors on overhead track at the service elevator, cedar benches/storage areas that run below window banks, antique air registers, acid washed piano hinges and transom window operators and existing concrete piers that are featured instead of hidden. The floors are made of random width wide plank old oak with hand planed faces and edges. Overall, the elements were carefully selected or painted/stained to form a soft muted gray palate The Country kitchen features an old fashioned style ice box appearance for the refrigerator/freezer, a tin ceiling, a distressed assortment of cabinets in multiple heights, colors and woods such as the cherry wood buffet cabinet with sliding glass doors on both sides. A backlit breakfast counter, a hammered copper hood and chicken wire inserts are part of the effort to make a comfortable, eclectic old fashioned looking Kitchen while containing the latest appliances and storage systems.

Our client is a cooking and gardening enthusiast so they wanted us to create a functional two zone working chef's kitchen while incorporating the exterior landscape into the room. We were faced with the challenge of working around the existing vacuum and water line chase located in the center of the room, low ceiling and structural rigidity of a 1970's 'deck home' and keep some of the existing quarry tile flooring to reduce waste. We designed a center island with a diagonal countertop. This strengthened the distinctly separate work zones balancing professional cooking functionality with seating and entertaining. The 48" Wolf range top and induction cook top, warming drawer and 48" side by side refrigerator transformed this kitchen into a gourmet chef's dream and allows ample room for multiple cooks and massive food storage. The diagonal island shape added a dynamic quality to a rectangular room. The previous brick encased water line chase became a hidden small closet and integrated flat screen television allowing for multiple viewing positions. By adding floor to ceiling windows the beauty of their expansive exterior landscape acts as artwork in this beautiful showcase kitchen.

Beautiful setting for a modern TV lift cabinet at the foot of the bed. The question first is, Do we want a TV in the bedroom? If yes, secondly question is, Where do we put the TV? Most put the TV on the wall, of course. Directly at the foot of bed, center of the bedroom or against the wall positioning for a TV lift furniture piece will of course depend on your style, furniture arrangement needs, TV size and of space available. TV lift furniture products have had ups and downs in the market because of noise, size, quality of TV lift and furniture/finish and how to fix them when they break. These are all legitimate concerns that should be addressed before purchasing. Prices for the TV lift furniture systems have a wide range of pricing, for good reason. If you want a high quality TV lift furniture piece, go to professionals that specialize in TV lift furniture. Cabinet Tronix, Best of Houzz 2014 and 2015, has over 30 5 start reviews and prides themselves on having the highest quality long lasting beautiful TV lift furniture in the market, 13 years running.
