Their interior design goal was to create a space that was airy, bright and welcoming. Through careful space planning, interior detailing, and selection of classic materials and colors, a large open plan feels both classic and friendly.

Retirees on a fixed income wanted to update their kitchen, but didn't want to spend all of their discretionary income. Our compromise was to invest in the important things - update the plumbing, build in the dishwasher, replace the sink and faucet, add a disposal, replace/add 2-3 cabinets, paint the rest, update hardware, add granite and a beautiful backsplash. The walls were painted and some countertop pieces were replaced. Happy customers!

Western Massachusetts American Institute of Architects, Honor Award, 2010. With Kuhn Riddle Architects. Inspired by the tobacco barns and farmhouses of the surrounding area, this project was designed as a sustainable spec house for Tomlinson Builders. A single-story, 2,000 sqft home with 3 bedrooms, its open floor plan and flexible layout appeal to a variety of homeowners, from new families to recent retirees. The simple geometric forms of the home are both modern and traditional, crisp and inviting. To maintain the natural qualities of the site, outdoor spaces were conceived as small jewels of manicured space set into an otherwise uncultivated landscape.
