These oak floors are 75 years old and, as you can see, are simply beautiful after refinishing. A solvent based urethane finish was applied over common Minwax stain.

In this smart home, the space under the basement stairs was brilliantly transformed into a cozy and safe space, where dreaming, reading and relaxing are allowed. Once you leave this magical place and go to the main level, you find a minimalist and elegant staircase system made with red oak handrails and treads and white-painted square balusters.

For this project we where also asked to do a laundry room. This furniture is a lay-on design as opposed to the in-frame design of the kitchen. It does use the same Farrow & Ball Wimborne White paint colour as the kitchen as well as the same Ivory Fantasy granite worktops. Down the end of the unit run you can see our custom designed laundry basket. This painted maple basket moves around on casters so can be manoeuvred around to load and unload dirty laundry. To avoid damage to the painted furniture we fitted oak bumper strips on the basket and inside its docking area.

Photos images: Courtesy of the Homeowners At the end of a dirt road in southern Vermont is a stunning timber and stone residence designed to resemble a small medieval Anglo-Norman manor house originally constructed in the 16th century. According to the owners, a husband and wife with a keen interest in both ancient and modern architecture, the 5,000 sq. ft. home was built slowly over eleven years by highly skilled craftsmen in order to complete all of the authentic hand-planed interior details. The craftsmen then spent an additional two years building the adjacent “ancient“ barn. “We always knew we wanted to take down a delapidated 19th-century hay barn and replace it with something of the period of the house,“ the husband said. The owners designed the barn and began to consider zinc for the roof after looking at northern European architecture and discovering that zinc has been used extensively in Europe for 300 years. Approximately 4,200 sq. ft. of RHEINZINK prePATINA bright rolled Double Lock Standing Seam Roof Panels were utilized to roof the white oak structure. The bright rolled material was selected deliberately in order to achieve the “naturally aged look“ that the owners were seeking. “It’s gone almost immediately to a soft grey which is what we hoped would happen. As the years go by, the color of the weathering white oak and the aging zinc will come together in a dusty grey. Seeing this building in the fog five years from now will feel like seeing a 500-year-old ghost barn floating in the hills of Vermont.“ Installation of the RHEINZINK panels was done by Cold Hollow Contracting, Burlington, VT. “These folks had serious zinc-roofing experience and were clearly the most craft-oriented of all the roofers we met with,“ according to the husband. The main focus was getting an “old look“ as quickly as possible, said Tim Heaghney, co-owner of Cold Hollow Contracting. “That’s really what makes the bright rolled so special—it ages quickly. We fabricated the 28 ft. panels on site and did the flashing fabrication in our shop. Many of the normal sheet metal skills apply to the zinc although we relied heavily on the RHEINZINK installation manual as well as personal support from their technical people. We used a radius cut and fold at the eve termination as opposed to the typical detail used in steel and copper where it‘s just cut at the 90 for the drip edge. The roof was steep but we do a lot of steeples and domes so we’re comfortable working at heights.“ The installers also utilized RHEINZINK’s AIR-Z structured underlayment to provide an air-gap behind the zinc. The RHEINZINK distributor on the project was Beacon Sales, Shelburne, VT

Client opted for a sleek black modern-look for his peninsula aquarium. Built to hold the weight of half a ton of water, this stand also acts as a space divider between dining and living rooms without blocking the light in this small condominium. Doors on all sides, including top open up for full access. (Reef aquarium keepers need lots of room for all their gadgets and accessories!) Finish: Benjamin Moore Advance in 2132-10 2013 Ryan Harris
