Bathroom - small 1950s subway tile mosaic tile floor bathroom idea in Boston with white walls

This rustic and handsome outdoor living and entertainment structure provides two levels of comfort and enjoyment. At the top, under the A-framed roof, stands a tall screened-in transom to allow fresh breezes to cool this generous outdoor living room screened porch. As you descend down the outdoor deck stairway to the next level, a cozy outdoor dining area is made private and comfortable with rich natural wood tones in the railing with metal post accents.

Like many older homes, this 18th century Amherst, NH property had seen several additions and renovations through the years. Working within the existing structure, Cummings Architects reconfigured the floor plan and created an elegant master suite and a bright and functional laundry room as the first phase of the project. The newly renovated spaces complement the farmhouse style of the oldest portions of the house, while giving the homeowners the modern conveniences of today. Eric Roth Photography

The Robinhood Residence is a small house renovation for a family that loves the scale and quaint setting of their home, but was quickly outgrowing its dated appearance and storage allowance. The main tasks for Content were creating a clear organization and simple flow to the home while bringing cohesion to the previous renovations. Custom cabinet pieces were designed for new storage and room focal points. A balance was struck, opening up visibility between rooms while maintaining the client's beloved elements from a quirky mid century renovation.

A complete revamp of this garden around a new glass pavilion and revamped lap pool, our brief was to create a calm and structured garden through the use of multi-layered hedges, and the inclusion of just a few species mass planted for maximum impact. A feature was the large number of mature trees craned onto the site, to create an instant Olive grove where the tennis court used to be, and a citrus grove off the master bedroom suite.

This is a recently completed master bathroom renovation we finished in the Gainesville Area. The customer wanted to update the look of their bathroom and convert the tub to a walk in shower. We gutted this master bathroom and closet down to the studs and started completely over. We framed in the old octagon window and fixed all the structural framing. We re-piped the supply and waste lines as well as updated all the electrical. We installed new insulation and covered it with new sheetrock and texture. Next we prepped for the tile installations and installed the Schluter Waterproofing system in the shower. New tile was installed throughout the bathroom and shower as well as a tile backsplash. New vanity, top and fixtures complete this bathroom renovation.

Klopf Architecture, Outer Space Landscape Architects, Sezen & Moon Structural Engineer and Flegels Construction updated a classic Eichler open, indoor-outdoor home. Everyone loved the classic, original bones of this house, but it was in need of a major facelift both inside and out. The owners also wanted to remove the barriers between the kitchen and great room, and increase the size of the master bathroom as well as make other layout changes. No addition to the house was contemplated. The owners worked with Klopf Architecture in part because of Klopf’s extensive mid-century modern / Eichler design portfolio, and in part because one of their neighbors who had worked with Klopf on their Eichler home remodel referred them. The Klopf team knew how to update the worn finishes to make a more sophisticated, higher quality home that both looks better and functions better. In conjunction with the atrium and the landscaped rear yard / patio, the glassy living room feels open on both sides and allows an indoor / outdoor flow throughout. The new, natural wood exterior siding runs through the house from inside to outside to inside again, updating one of the classic design features of the Eichler homes. Picking up on the wood siding, walnut vanities and cabinets offset the white walls. Gray porcelain tiles evoke the concrete slab floors and flow from interior to exterior to make the spaces appear to flow together. Similarly the ceiling decking has the same white-washed finish from inside to out. The continuity of materials and space enhances the sense of flow. The large kitchen, perfect for entertaining, has a wall of built-ins and an oversized island. There’s plenty of storage and space for the whole group to prep and cook together. One unique approach to the master bedroom is the bed wall. The head of the bed is tucked within a line of built-in wardrobes with a high window above. Replacing the master closet with this wall of wardrobes allowed for both a larger bathroom and a larger bedroom. This 1,953 square foot, 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom Double Gable Eichler remodeled single-family house is located in Mountain View in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

The 1790 Garvin-Weeks Farmstead is a beautiful farmhouse with Georgian and Victorian period rooms as well as a craftsman style addition from the early 1900s. The original house was from the late 18th century, and the barn structure shortly after that. The client desired architectural styles for her new master suite, revamped kitchen, and family room, that paid close attention to the individual eras of the home. The master suite uses antique furniture from the Georgian era, and the floral wallpaper uses stencils from an original vintage piece. The kitchen and family room are classic farmhouse style, and even use timbers and rafters from the original barn structure. The expansive kitchen island uses reclaimed wood, as does the dining table. The custom cabinetry, milk paint, hand-painted tiles, soapstone sink, and marble baking top are other important elements to the space. The historic home now shines. Eric Roth

This three-quarter architectural perspective showcases the home's striking massing and geometric profile. The structure is characterized by an intersecting gabled roofline finished in charcoal standing seam metal, which creates a series of dramatic, crisp roof peaks. The exterior walls are wrapped completely in a premium ashlar limestone veneer, displaying a textured mix of cream and gray blocks that give the home a massive, permanent grounding. A prominent stone-clad chimney stack with a minimalist black metal shroud punctuation breaks the roofline, adding powerful verticality to the design. The architecture masterfully balances solid masonry volumes with voids of glass. Deep-set window boxes with matte black metal frames cut into the stone walls, while the primary gabled pavilion opens up entirely with a towering floor-to-ceiling glass window wall. This transparent gabled peak features a deep structural overhang lined with rich, clear-stained wood soffit panels and integrated flush downlights, revealing a vaulted interior that glows warmly at dusk. The clean horizontal lines of the stone cladding and metalwork create a masterful study in high-end, contemporary residential structure.

Ligne Roset - RUCHÉ Design by Inga Sempé Ruché bed is lifted from the ground by a simple, fine structure which supports a comfortable sleep platform. The headboard and frame are dressed with a distinctive quilting, a kind of boutis stitch of padding made using a cross-hatching of interrupted seams. Alternately flattened by the stitches then set free, the fabric 'curls' in places, giving rise both to its unique appearance and to its name, Ruché (a gathered or pleated fabric which serves as decoration on a piece of clothing). For Ligne Roset, Ruché also brings together the unusual and the traditional. The unusual thing about this piece is its solid wood structure, and the great traditional element: the quilting, the very heart of its savoir-faire. Its tall uprights and the undulations of its duvet combine to produce a harmonious union of rigorous straight lines and soft, welcoming curves.

Located part of the Cumberland Plateau of Alabama, the 36’x 36’ structure has a fully finished garage on the lower floor for equine, garage or storage and a spacious apartment above ideal for living space. For this model, the owner opted to enclose 24 feet of the single shed roof for vehicle parking, leaving the rest for workspace. The optional garage package includes roll-up insulated doors, as seen on the side of the apartment. The fully finished apartment has 1,000+ sq. ft. living space –enough for a master suite, guest bedroom and bathroom, plus an open floor plan for the kitchen, dining and living room. Complementing the handmade breezeway doors, the owner opted to wrap the posts in cedar and sheetrock the walls for a more traditional home look. The exterior of the apartment matches the allure of the interior. Jumbo western red cedar cupola, 2”x6” Douglas fir tongue and groove siding all around and shed roof dormers finish off the old-fashioned look the owners were aspiring for.

This 1920’s bungalow in the Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood had great bones but was in serious need of an update. The space in the rear of the house – which included the master bedroom, kitchen, and rear entry – was jumbled and did not suit the new owner: a successful entrepreneur with modern sensibilities. We were tasked with re-configuring this part of the house and with removing out-of-character interior trim and replacing it with custom casings, baseboards, and moldings. During the course of the work, we discovered an old roof and cabinets which had been covered inside and a structurally unsound beam in the kitchen. The kitchen was demolished and built back fresh, new, modern, and a little larger. A new beam was engineered and hidden in the ceiling. The laundry was relocated to make way for a large master closet. Space was borrowed to enlarge the master bath and create a powder room off the kitchen. New electrical and lighting fixtures throughout were also a feature of the work.

This early 19th century house was renovated to incorporate a large wing which allowed for a master bedroom suite, custom kitchen, living room and study. The arched form of the large window and the recessed bay window recall later 19th century American architecture. The original stair was restored. The new railing is composed of antique newels and reproduced balusters. Custom structural columns, adorned with aluminum leaves and tiny light fixtures divide the spaces of the kitchen. Spruce cabinets and dark green granite highlight the kitchen. The cabinets are arranged as pieces of furniture, each serving a particular purpose. The second floor master bedroom opens onto a sleeping porch.

The owner proposed a Rustic Modern aesthetic, and the design highlights trees harvested from the site as columns for the timber frame structure. Nestled into a Western slope the house enjoys dramatic views to the East. Conceived as the ultimate family house, the main floor is the heart of the residence, and the third floor houses the master bedroom suite with guest rooms lower level.
