The new game room includes everything the kids need to hang out, watch movies, or do their homework after school. It’s cooled and heated just like the rest of the home, with bright LED lighting and a stylish ceiling fan to keep it comfortable. As for storage, we were able to build a large storage closet across from the door which is also where we moved the attic entry to. There is still plenty of space to house the client’s stored necessities, holiday décor, and other adds-and-ends. Our clients also wanted to incorporate a bright pop of color with an orange accent wall to give the room some fun, funky personality.

This masculine teen boy's bedroom is the perfect place for him to study, relax, listen to music and unwind after a long day at school or skiing with friends. The room features an upholstered bed with leather trim, a large geometric rug, a modern desk, and a corner seating area.

We went with open shelves (against the realtor's recommendation of basic cabinets). We wanted to accentuate the high ceilings in the small space and maintain an old school feel of the 1886 home. We patterned the brackets after those on an original built-in piece we moved from the laundry area and positioned over the breakfast bar.

“After living in a two-story, 1914 farmhouse for 30 years, which originally had no insulation, no running water, no electricity, and only the six fireplaces for heat, I was well aware of the limitations of this vernacular housing,” said homeowner John Monroe. “Having a comfortable living environment with reduced consumptive energy usage was appealing. I’ve spent the summer in the new house and beside the absolute beauty of the modern design, knowing that the house remains cool even with its almost full wall of windows makes me feel that the extra efforts to insulate the house and use the geo-thermal system, among other efforts, were well worth it.”

After decades of drastic alterations, and demolition of the second and third story, this grand estate was reduced to a pink Bermuda style ranch house. The current owners returned it to a suggestion of its original state. Beamed ceilings, working fireplace, period woodwork and historic finishes draw out the dignity of its past, and make them part of life in his century. The main house overlooks terraced yards, stonewalls and a landscaped pool area. The formal interiors frame sweeping views of treetops and seascapes.
