After spending time with the client to outline their desired lifestyle within the home and researching our restrictions on the property, we proposed the concept. This is where life happens. All spaces are flanked by garden views; many of them actually enter the space

This new home near Crofton, NE was essentially designed by the homeowner herself. She wanted white to be the focus of her new kitchen and after a little bit of research she knew Cambria carried the best selection of white countertop designs. Her home features Cambria Ella in the large galley style kitchen on her island and perimeter which is accented with her slate appliances. The white farmhouse sink gives her kitchen a little bit of that country charm. So that the home was not white throughout she incorporated dark cabinetry in the bathrooms. A small powder bath on the main level features a Cambria Minera countertop; the master bath vanity countertops are Cambria Brittanicca and the children's bathroom showcases Cambria Berwyn. The home office brings some masculinity into the home with dark wood cabinets and Cambria Laneshaw.

The new stonework was inspired by the original–the material was even researched and taken from the same quarry.

This concrete stained counter top was a request from my clients. At first I was a little skeptical, but after I did my research, we moved ahead and it came out just beautiful.

The major objective of this home was to craft something entirely unique; based on our client’s international travels, and tailored to their ideal lifestyle. Every detail, selection and method was individual to this project. The design included personal touches like a dog shower for their Great Dane, a bar downstairs to entertain, and a TV tucked away in the den instead of on display in the living room. Great design doesn’t just happen. It’s a product of work, thought and exploration. For our clients, they looked to hotels they love in New York and Croatia, Danish design, and buildings that are architecturally artistic and ideal for displaying art. Our part was to take these ideas and actually build them. Every door knob, hinge, material, color, etc. was meticulously researched and crafted. Most of the selections are custom built either by us, or by hired craftsman.
