Master bedroom with stairway to loft
Bedroom - rustic master carpeted bedroom idea in Denver with beige walls, a standard fireplace and a stone fireplace

Benjamin Benschneider A Seattle family was expecting their third child and hoping to find space for an additional bedroom within their existing one-story home. A small second floor addition was considered but the cost and disruption to the family living space presented serious drawbacks. A new detached garage and DADU (Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit), to be located in the backyard, was proposed to free up the existing basement garage for the new bedroom. The new building is modest and simple, designed with a scale and character to complement the existing house and neighborhood.

Oversized mirrors and windows are ideal for this timeless, monochromatic bathroom in order for the natural light to reflect and shine throughout the hanoi pure white marble countertops and mosaic tile floor. The dark wooden beams seen overhead nicely hint to the warm kitchen island as the geometric stainless steel light fixture adds for an interesting art piece.

One requirement to the design was to create a separate coffee station. The ideal spot was between the outside service porch entry and the pantry door. The client also wanted glass doors on the upper cabinet to be able to put china and crystal. The lower cabinet could then be used to hide the coffee machine when not in use and other related items.

The client wanted to have a space where she could relax and read from her personal collection of favorite books. By utilizing some existing furniture and adding a few key pieces, we created a space that is ideal for conversation and quiet, whichever suits the mood. The client travels all over the world, so I wanted to feature some great pieces she has collected along the way. See if you can spot some of the unique decor in the home library!

Instead of purchasing a second home, the homeowners decided to create a vacation destination right in their own yard. When the project was finished, the family had a whole new world just outside their door. Three sitting areas, dining spaces, and lounging areas under the decks. An outdoor kitchen, hot tub, and fountain. There is no reason for this family to travel to relax and get away from it all. The outdoor “rooms” were created to provide intimate retreats for each of the family members, at every stage of their lives. The outdoor kitchen was designed for entertaining, as was the hot tub. The cozy sitting areas provide ideal spots for reading a book, or sharing a glass of wine. The fountain’s stuccoed brick veneer is graced with handmade brass flutes that fill the garden with the soothing sounds of water. No travel required.
