The portrait-style 21 E Electric fireplace by Fireplace Xtrordinair is easy to install, ready for plug and play operation and comes with choice of optional faces and interiors. This electric fireplace features pulsating, glowing log set and ember bed features patented, realistic LED flame technology. You also have downward pointing LED accent lights that illuminate the logs and interior to give a three-dimensional depth to the fireplace interior. The 21 E plugs into any standard wall outlet or can be hard wired in. The standard remote control gives you: flame on/off, variable interior lighting, adjustable flame speed, heater with blower, thermostat, sleep timer and child-proof lockout. The 1200 watt electric heater and blower will add comfortable warmth to an area up to 400 sq. ft. which makes it ideal for supplemental room heating. The 21 Electric fireplace is designed for pre-built cabinets, or it can be built-in with standard stud framing and facing. Drywall, tile or stone can all be accommodated. What makes the 21 E Electric unique is the built-in audio system that is ready to connect with your iPod, iPhone, mp3 player or streaming audio. Two built-in speakers, a 24 watt amplifier with high-fidelity playback and a mini-jack auxiliary connection cable are ready to plug and play. The standard 21 E 21 remote also operates the audio system with on/off and volume control.

Probably our favorite Home Theater System. This system makes going to the movies as easy as going downstairs. Based around Sony’s 4K Projector, this system looks incredible and has awesome sound. A Stewart Filmscreen provides the best canvas for our picture to be viewed. Eight speakers by B&W (including a subwoofer) are built into the walls or ceiling. All of the Equipment is hidden behind the screen-wall in a nice rack – out of the way and more importantly – out of view. Using the simple remote or your mobile device (tablet or phone) you can easily control the system and watch your favorite movie or channel. The system also has streaming service available along with the Kaleidescape System.

Every successful bath project starts with the right design plan and for this teen’s bathroom, creating a stylish space reflecting their personalities was a must. Safety features, good lighting and proper ventilation improved the usability and enhanced the space for these young adults. We recommended a vent fan that not only removes unwanted moisture but also can stream their favorite music from their smart phones Bluetooth so that the phones can stay safe and dry in a nearby room. Transitional larger format tile in a neutral grey tone, unique and decorative glass tile and brushed nickel edging around the shower cubby added an element of dimension and style. The decorative tile created a stunning focal-point to the back wall of the shower and complimented the brushed nickel fixtures and tending finishes of the white quartz countertop and grey-blend porcelain plank flooring.

Bright and fun is the best description of this collaborative project. It started with a phone call from Meredith Miller, an out-of-state designer working for a client who recently relocated to Severna Park. Colorful, distinctive and classic — one can’t help but feel happy after spending time in this combination living/dining room. A comfortable and inviting vibe is created by the natural textures and patterns of the floor and window coverings. Abstract art in the living room, painted by New York artist Valeri Leuchs, adds to the vibrant, yet serene atmosphere. Valances and banded drapery panels, with patterns and colors from nature, complement the bright natural light streaming in through the many windows. We love collaborating with designers and completing their visions with the perfect window treatments!

Well-traveled. Relaxed. Timeless. Our well-traveled clients were soon-to-be empty nesters when they approached us for help reimagining their Presidio Heights home. The expansive Spanish-Revival residence originally constructed in 1908 had been substantially renovated 8 year prior, but needed some adaptations to better suit the needs of a family with three college-bound teens. We evolved the space to be a bright, relaxed reflection of the family’s time together, revising the function and layout of the ground-floor rooms and filling them with casual, comfortable furnishings and artifacts collected abroad. One of the key changes we made to the space plan was to eliminate the formal dining room and transform an area off the kitchen into a casual gathering spot for our clients and their children. The expandable table and coffee/wine bar means the room can handle large dinner parties and small study sessions with similar ease. The family room was relocated from a lower level to be more central part of the main floor, encouraging more quality family time, and freeing up space for a spacious home gym. In the living room, lounge-worthy upholstery grounds the space, encouraging a relaxed and effortless West Coast vibe. Exposed wood beams recall the original Spanish-influence, but feel updated and fresh in a light wood stain. Throughout the entry and main floor, found artifacts punctate the softer textures — ceramics from New Mexico, religious sculpture from Asia and a quirky wall-mounted phone that belonged to our client’s grandmother.

With a view like this and your favorite music playing, it would be really hard not to enjoy taking a bath here. The distributed audio system in this home can stream music from an iPad or iPhone to every room.
