This newly constructed home was in need of an outdoor living space and streetscape in a matching contemporary Northwest style. Our studio composed a landscape with an improved entry sequence, balancing the need for personal privacy alongside a distinctive public face. A courtyard oasis with a new deck is enclosed by warm wooden fencing set on top of the contrasting raw texture of a gabion retaining wall that acts as a backdrop to bold streetscape plantings.

What began as a renovation project morphed into a new house, driven by the natural beauty of the site.
The new structures are perfectly aligned with the coastline, and take full advantage of the views of ocean, islands, and shoals. The location is within walking distance of town and its amenities, yet miles away in the privacy it affords. The house is nestled on a nicely wooded lot, giving the residence screening from the street, with an open meadow leading to the ocean on the rear of the lot.
The design concept was driven by the serenity of the site, enhanced by textures of trees, plantings, sand and shoreline. The newly constructed house sits quietly in a location advantageously positioned to take full advantage of natural light and solar orientations. The visual calm is enhanced by the natural material: stone, wood, and metal throughout the home.
The main structures are comprised of traditional New England forms, with modern connectors serving to unify the structures. Each building is equally suited for single floor living, if that future needs is ever necessary. Unique too is an underground connection between main house and an outbuilding.
With their flowing connections, no room is isolated or ignored; instead each reflects a different level of privacy and social interaction.
Just as there are layers to the exterior in beach, field, forest and oceans, the inside has a layered approach. Textures in wood, stone, and neutral colors combine with the warmth of linens, wools, and metals. Personality and character of the interiors and its furnishings are tailored to the client’s lifestyle. Rooms are arranged and organized in an intersection of public and private spaces. The quiet palette within reflects the nature outside, enhanced with artwork and accessories.

Our latest project in Harlem involves the transformation of the lower two floors of a four-story
brownstone into a vibrant and playful duplex apartment. The design balances functionality with
whimsy, creating a bright, welcoming home full of character and personality.
The main floor is designed as an open-concept living and kitchen area that maximizes both light
and space. The living room is anchored by a striking custom-built floor-to-ceiling unit, which
serves as a multifunctional centerpiece, combining a TV entertainment center, a bar, and display
shelving. This elegant feature also subtly divides the living area from the staircase leading to the
lower level. The kitchen, a focal point of the home, features floor-to-ceiling cabinetry that makes
full use of the high ceilings, blending grey tones with walnut finishes. A playful multicolored
triangular-tiled backsplash adds an element of fun, while large glass sliding doors lead to a newly
constructed deck overlooking the backyard. Above the kitchen sink, a generously sized window
allows natural light to flood in, transforming what was once a dimly lit space into a bright and
inviting area. At the front of the main floor, a small music studio offers flexibility and creativity.
This space can be enclosed with floor-to-ceiling aluminum and glass sliding partitions,
maintaining the open flow of the layout while offering privacy when needed. A bold powder
room further enhances the personality of the space. It features a custom black wall-mounted
concrete sink with an angular design that wraps around the toilet. The sink is set against a fullheight
mirrored wall, which reflects the dynamic black-and-white graffiti wallpaper, making the
compact space both striking and memorable.
The lower level is dedicated to the private quarters, designed with comfort and luxury in mind.
The primary bedroom suite is a true sanctuary, boasting a spacious ensuite bath with a luxurious
open wet-room concept. At its heart is a freestanding white soaking tub, complemented by dark
blue hexagonal tiles that cover the floor and extend up the wall behind the double vanities,
creating a dramatic and cohesive effect. The toilet is tucked away in a separate room painted in a
matching deep blue, adding to the suite’s serene and cohesive ambiance. This level also includes
a second bedroom and a guest bath, each reflecting the playful design theme of the home. The
guest bathroom is particularly delightful, with sunny white and yellow hexagonal tiles on the
walls and a matching yellow tile floor, creating a cheerful and uplifting space.
Every detail of this Harlem duplex reflects the client’s vision for a home that feels modern yet
full of personality. From the playful material choices to the thoughtful use of light and space, the
design celebrates the character of the historic brownstone while embracing contemporary living.

Our Privacy Screens are 100% Custom Made in the USA. We are located in Colorado but we can ship for all of the 50 states. We only use high quality American Made steel.
All of our Products are custom made. We can add frames, posts, brackets. There are also several designs available through our Etsy listings.
Or visit our website to see more options:
www.hnpbuilding.com
Benefits of our privacy screens:
1- Increased privacy – The nosy neighbors and odd passersby will have a much harder time seeing your own personal goings-on.
2- Shade – On a hot summer’s day, it is always nice to find a bit of shade, and when the sun is beating down on your patio, sometimes you have to bring the shade to you. A privacy screen can offer this much-needed respite from the heat of direct sunlight.
3- Hiding eyesores – Sometimes there are things we need to keep outside and they are not always aesthetically pleasing. Things like air conditioning units and water pumps can really distract from your yard’s scenery. Privacy screens are a good way of dividing and keeping things like this out of sight.
4- Attractive – The right screen can really accentuate your yard, making it a true sight to be seen.
What exactly do you do?
Driven by curiosity, we thrive on challenging creativity and what is expected when designing for a space.
We enhance experience through the creation and design of decorative screens. Ultimately, elevating spaces to bring people together.
