Private Expression - Photos & Ideas

The open riser stair from the main level leads to the owner's private retreat tucked over the main living spaces with views toward the backyard from under the two-story porch. The owner suite located above dining and kitchen, includes a laundry, bedroom, walk-in closets, and bath.

Artists Haven: Kitchen

Joe McGuire Design

Aptly titled Artist Haven, our Aspen studio designed this private home in Aspen's West End for an artist-client who expresses the concept of "less is more." ⁠ In this extensive remodel, we created a serene, organic foyer to welcome our clients home. We went with soft neutral palettes and cozy furnishings. A wool felt area rug and textural pillows make the bright open space feel warm and cozy. The floor tile turned out beautifully and is low maintenance as well.⁠ We used the high ceilings to add statement lighting to create visual interest. Colorful accent furniture and beautiful decor elements make this truly an artist's retreat.

Magic of Scandinavia

artMOKO Design Studio

While creating a residence near Cracow, we have faced the challenge of meeting the needs and expectations of very demanding, strong and creative “successful” people. For them a house is not just a private space where they need to feel comfortably, but also an expression of their aesthetic tastes and proof of their sophisticated style.

This dark, gallery-lit corridor showcases a vibrant yellow wall sculpture opposite a large expressive canvas from the client's collection. The bright veined stone floor leads the eye to a warm walnut door, framing the art like a private museum.

Lititz Carriage House

Yohe Architecture + Design, PC

This new detached garage was designed to express the owner’s contemporary tastes, while also adding functional space and aesthetic appeal. The exterior features a unique and durable charred cedar siding finish, which extends from the garage as a screen element to connect with the main house. This connection is further defined by a new metal standing seam roof detail. A custom gate leads visitors from the vehicle court into the private backyard.
