Upon entering the front door, instead of walking into the home’s interior, you enter the lanai and view the home’s “Palm Court”. The palm court doubles as a putting green and opens to the home’s interiors on three sides. The home’s extensive indoor/outdoor floor plan, pool, lanais, rooftop terrace and outdoor amenities make this home the ultimate experience in luxury outdoor living. The judges said “Outdoor living doesn’t get better than this.” A Grand ARDA for Outdoor Living Design goes to Phil Kean Design Group Designer: Phil Kean Design Group From: Winter Park, Florida

This Brooklyn street-corner property had a storied past as a butcher’s shop and antiques store before being purchased by the designer's client. The client’s vision was to convert the property into a unique, modern industrial townhome. The first step in maximizing the building's interior livable space was the arduous task of excavating the basement. This resulted in a large recreation room area with a truly one-of-a-kind, oversized wine room accessible via a blackened steel sculptured doorway — a modern take on the traditional wine cave holding 688 bottles.

When this former butcher shop became available for sale in 2012, the new owner saw an opportunity to restore the property, aiming to convert it into a beautiful townhome incorporating modern amenities and industrial finishes with an eye toward historic preservation. A key factor in that preservation was not only retaining the home's architectural storefront windows, a requirement due to the location within a Historic District, but also their careful repair and restoration.

Originally submitted for the Model Homes category, the judges felt this entry deserved an ARDA in Design Detail. Inspired by the British Revolution, the rustic yet modern style employs a neutral color scheme with various textures. Traditional elements paired with refined furniture and contemporary finishes result in a design inspired by history. Hues of gray as well as rustic wood paneling create continuity through the home. Creating each space to accommodate a family was challenging due to the narrow width of the townhome. An ARDA for Design Details goes to Ashton Woods Designer: Centro Stile From: Roswell, Georgia

Although this home appears to be a renovated farm house, it is actually new construction. The design concept behind this home was to capture the character and charm of a turn of the century home while providing the client with all the amenities of a modern home. The materials were selected to be period correct for an early 19th century farm house featuring 1/2 round gutters, actual field stone and board on board batten at the garage to create the authentic character of this home.

This completed home boasts a HERS index of zero. The most noteworthy energy efficient features are the air tightness of the thermal shell and the use of solar energy. Using a 17.1 kW Photovoltaic system and Tesla Powerwall, the solar system provides approximately 100% of the annual electrical energy needs. In addition, an innovative “pod” floor plan design allows each separate pod to be closed off for minimal HVAC use when unused.

The extensive renovation of this Colonial Revival influenced residence aimed to blend historic period details with modern amenities. Challenges for this project were that the existing front entry porch and side sunroom were structurally unsound with considerable settling, water damage and damage to the shingle roof structure. This necessitated the total demolition and rebuilding of these spaces, but with modern materials that resemble the existing characteristics of this residence. A new flat roof structure with ornamental railing systems were utilized in place of the original roof design.

HNA Hardsape Project Award Winner Cino Residence Blairstown, NJ JB's Landscape With the homeowner’s insistence on incorporating a pool to accentuate the amazing view from their property, the challenge lay in creating a unified look with several outdoor living areas. By utilizing different levels in the design, JB's Landscape tied together an amphitheater seating area in front of a fireplace, pool deck, custom kitchen, fire pit, ponds, stream, and pathway leading to the garage area. JB's Landscape incorporated natural stone to compliment the many styles of pillars were constructed in which water cascades into two smaller ponds which feed into a larger pond.
