This is a unique three level loft home in Chicago's Lakeview area. We initially were asked to renovate the master bathroom, and were invited back six months later to renovate the kitchen. living room and home office. The clients wanted to make the spaces more functional and make them feel a little more residential, while maintaining the industrial look of the loft. Nina Leone

Beautiful ultra-white and deep blue matt lacquer makes a stunning impression. Floating base cabinets add to the magic of this design which has rightfully won two awards: iF Product Design Award and the Initiative LifeCare 'Kitchen Innovation of the Year" award.

This was a very dark cherry kitchen when we started this project. It was quite a task to get to the bright white in the end result. We were initially tasked with just doing the island and after homeowner saw the primer, they wanted the entire kitchen completed. The transformation is amazing!

An open house lot is like a blank canvas. When Mathew first visited the wooded lot where this home would ultimately be built, the landscape spoke to him clearly. Standing with the homeowner, it took Mathew only twenty minutes to produce an initial color sketch that captured his vision - a long, circular driveway and a home with many gables set at a picturesque angle that complemented the contours of the lot perfectly. The interior was designed using a modern mix of architectural styles – a dash of craftsman combined with some colonial elements – to create a sophisticated yet truly comfortable home that would never look or feel ostentatious. Features include a bright, open study off the entry. This office space is flanked on two sides by walls of expansive windows and provides a view out to the driveway and the woods beyond. There is also a contemporary, two-story great room with a see-through fireplace. This space is the heart of the home and provides a gracious transition, through two sets of double French doors, to a four-season porch located in the landscape of the rear yard. This home offers the best in modern amenities and design sensibilities while still maintaining an approachable sense of warmth and ease. Photo by Eric Roth

We designed this apartment for a couple who had just moved into a Hoboken rental for a one year term. Our goal was to create a bright and airy space that was inviting quickly and on a budget. The turnaround time from our initial meeting to move in was short, but we helped to make them immediately feel at home. Photos: WalkThisHouse.com

Although the family initially wanted to take down a lot of structural walls, this proved to be too expensive. So minor changes were made to open the space, things were re-arranged for better counter space and storage and it was dressed up with exotic sapele lowers and shiny white acrylic uppers.

This picture shows the driveway in action. Note that not only does the driveway not have snow but it is also dry. This prevents any ice from reforming after the system melts the initial snow load. The concrete itself is a colored 5000psi mix with integrated fiber to limit visible micro-cracking.

The owners initial direction to bring in glass was facilitated by the brother who is an architect. Keeping privacy in the room was important so we use heavily frosted glass to accommodate this but allow the light to come through. Custom barn door manufactured by Koetter Woodworking.
