Sited perfectly and intuitively on a beautiful parcel of land, this Vermont contemporary home is complemented by an intricate roof design, appreciated from above. The long axis of the house faces south on the gently sloping site to bring midwinter daylight and passive solar gain deep into the 16 ft. wide main volume. Just 2.5 acres of the 17.5 acre lot was developed, to minimize disturbance to the site, to preserve many of the long-lived mixed hardwood and softwood trees, including the owners’ favorite, a yellow birch with golden curly bark, and to protect the natural wetlands and stream outflow. The fully accessible main level contains the living room, dining room, kitchen, primary bedroom and bath, and a lovely westerly screened porch. Connected to the main volume are a garage with three bays including a small studio and a workshop. The home prioritizes intuitive, organic and incredibly functional spaces combined with simple stylistic elements, hints of a mid-century modern American home.

Our Cherokee Park customers needed to remodel their bathroom and liked the light, airy, neutral look. The design we came up with started with a 30” custom-made, Samovar silver-stained vanity with a cultured marble top and a Moen Eva 4” spread chrome faucet. Above the vanity is a Kohler Mirrored medicine cabinet and contemporary Millennium Lighting Commode is a white Mansfield with a custom-made commode topper cabinet in Samovar silver stain to match the vanity. The apron -front tub is Americast in white with a Moen shower/faucet and Delta Intuition hand-held combo. The faux 12” x 24” marble tile runs from the tub to the ceiling with a crushed glass mosaic feature strip. We also installed a curved shower rod The flooring is Florida tile resembling hardwood in blue/grey. www.melissamannphotography.com

Winner of the 2018 Tour of Homes Best Remodel, this whole house re-design of a 1963 Bennet & Johnson mid-century raised ranch home is a beautiful example of the magic we can weave through the application of more sustainable modern design principles to existing spaces. We worked closely with our client on extensive updates to create a modernized MCM gem. Extensive alterations include: - a completely redesigned floor plan to promote a more intuitive flow throughout - vaulted the ceilings over the great room to create an amazing entrance and feeling of inspired openness - redesigned entry and driveway to be more inviting and welcoming as well as to experientially set the mid-century modern stage - the removal of a visually disruptive load bearing central wall and chimney system that formerly partitioned the homes’ entry, dining, kitchen and living rooms from each other - added clerestory windows above the new kitchen to accentuate the new vaulted ceiling line and create a greater visual continuation of indoor to outdoor space - drastically increased the access to natural light by increasing window sizes and opening up the floor plan - placed natural wood elements throughout to provide a calming palette and cohesive Pacific Northwest feel - incorporated Universal Design principles to make the home Aging In Place ready with wide hallways and accessible spaces, including single-floor living if needed - moved and completely redesigned the stairway to work for the home’s occupants and be a part of the cohesive design aesthetic - mixed custom tile layouts with more traditional tiling to create fun and playful visual experiences - custom designed and sourced MCM specific elements such as the entry screen, cabinetry and lighting - development of the downstairs for potential future use by an assisted living caretaker - energy efficiency upgrades seamlessly woven in with much improved insulation, ductless mini splits and solar gain

To see the videos about this project: Part 1: https://youtu.be/LfNAaG1lOEs Part 2: https://youtu.be/fBP-RzFqPTM We have created this new front entry porch as a transitional space and intuitive connection between the private world of the family and the public realm of the sidewalk. For a homeowner the front porch can be one of the best ways to build a sense of neighborhood community. For this front entry porch project we have added a multi pitch hip roof across the front of the home. This roof covers the sitting area and serves to properly define the front entry area of the home. This covered porch allows room for entertaining, as well as considerably improving the homes curb appeal.
