What better way to light an art collector's hallway than to light everything. With the potential for art to get lost in the shadow of an opaque piece, light must come from multiple directions. By edge-lighting the glass shelves, the pieces are provided with a soft under-light, but also give an illuminated edge providing a reflection to give the pieces sparkle. Miniature downlights are recessed into the lids of each display shelf while the base of each display glows with an LED light panel which backlights a frosted glass shelf. The offset door casing was softly backlit to reveal the bold color of the walls. Recessed adjustable downlights are hidden from view by periodic beams crossing the ceiling plane. With layer after layer of light all painstakingly integrated into the interiors and architecture, this space has the function and presence of an art museum in a residential setting.

A modern screen porch beautifully links this Wellesley home to its Garden. Extending overhangs that are clad in red cedar emphasize the indoor – outdoor connection and keep direct sun out of the interior. The grey granite floor pavers extend seamlessly from the inside to the outside. A custom designed steel truss with stainless steel cable supports the roof. The insect screen is black nylon for maximum transparency. Photo by: Nat Rea Photography

A young family came to me with the request to create a tailored, elegant and fashionable home. We set out to create a cosmopolitan sanctuary that was airy and bright with layers of contemporary motifs throughout to compliment the dignified architecture of the apartment.

Illuminated shelves, light above the cabinets, and two rows of linear LED under cabinet light provide light throughout the kitchen. Recessed downlights and an island pendant complete the multi-layered approach.

This forever home, perfect for entertaining and designed with a place for everything, is a contemporary residence that exudes warmth, functional style, and lifestyle personalization for a family of five. Our busy lawyer couple, with three close-knit children, had recently purchased a home that was modern on the outside, but dated on the inside. They loved the feel, but knew it needed a major overhaul. Being incredibly busy and having never taken on a renovation of this scale, they knew they needed help to make this space their own. Upon a previous client referral, they called on Pulp to make their dreams a reality. Then ensued a down to the studs renovation, moving walls and some stairs, resulting in dramatic results. Beth and Carolina layered in warmth and style throughout, striking a hard-to-achieve balance of livable and contemporary. The result is a well-lived in and stylish home designed for every member of the family, where memories are made daily.
