The house, which was built in 2004, had existing exterior shingles, brick and siding that were matched flawlessly by our design team in order create this custom designed detached garage. The exterior trim was hand selected to keep in style with the existing house, and the homeowners could not be happier with the final result!

First home, savvy art owners, decided to hire RBD to design their recently purchased two story, four bedroom, midcentury Diamond Heights home to merge their new parenthood and love for entertaining lifestyles. Hired two months prior to the arrival of their baby boy, RBD was successful in installing the nursery just in time. The home required little architectural spatial reconfiguration given the previous owner was an architect, allowing RBD to focus mainly on furniture, fixtures and accessories while updating only a few finishes. New paint grade paneling added a needed midcentury texture to the entry, while an existing site for sore eyes radiator, received a new walnut cover creating a built-in mid-century custom headboard for the guest room, perfect for large art and plant decoration. RBD successfully paired furniture and art selections to connect the existing material finishes by keeping fabrics neutral and complimentary to the existing finishes. The backyard, an SF rare oasis, showcases a hanging chair and custom outdoor floor cushions for easy lounging, while a stylish midcentury heated bench allows easy outdoor entertaining in the SF climate.

KITCHEN FEATURES INLCUDE: - custom, raised panel cabinets and bistro height bar made out of dark-stained knotty #2 alder -vintage-looking oil-rubbed bronze cabinet hardware, footrest and brackets on the bar enhance the cabinetry -premium grade “Blue Storm” granite with lots of “movement” and drama -tumbled stone back splash to complete the “pub” feel - soffit with the pendant lighting mirrors the shape of the countertop beneath it -hand-scraped, dark-stained teak flooring CHALLENGE: The homeowners selected a large amount of dark surfaces with the cabinetry, countertops and flooring. SOLUTION: With that much dark surface we used color and lighting along with the many banks of floor to ceiling windows. The ivory enameled woodwork gave a lively contrast to the floor and wall colors. Finally we used dimmable lighting and many zones to sculpt a wide variety of moods and lighting levels.

Frameless cabinets in this kitchen can provide more room for storing items. The kitchen perimeter is painted with a feather gray and with a silver mink glaze & dry brush. The dark Island is a great contrast along with the lighter perimeter cabinets. This kitchen has hidden spice pull outs and also a mixer lift. Its nice to keep all the clutter off the countertops.

The kitchen cabinet design provided a top row of glass front lit cabinets which take on an added dimension lined with wood grained inspired wallpaper and white matte cactus. An above sink succulent arrangement in a wooden trough brings a simple touch of cool cactus tones that echo the outside view. The open framed contemporary lantern style of the island pendants selection offers structure to the airy space and enables viewing of the television mounted on the adjacent fireplace wall while preparing meals. Roughhewn ceiling beams were installed throughout the great room to add depth and context to the large space. The separate breakfast nook beams were installed perpendicular to the main beams to bring extra focus to the lovely setting under the vintage inspired chandelier. Photo Credit: Pam Singleton

You enter this bright and light master bathroom through a custom pocket door that is inlayed with a mirror. The room features a beautiful free-standing tub. The shower is Carrera marble and has a seat, storage inset, a body jet and dual showerheads. The striking single vanity is a deep navy blue with beaded inset cabinets, chrome handles and provides tons of storage. Along with the blue vanity, the rose gold fixtures, including the shower grate, are eye catching and provide a subtle pop of color. What started as an addition project turned into a full house remodel in this Modern Craftsman home in Narberth, PA. The addition included the creation of a sitting room, family room, mudroom and third floor. As we moved to the rest of the home, we designed and built a custom staircase to connect the family room to the existing kitchen. We laid red oak flooring with a mahogany inlay throughout house. Another central feature of this is home is all the built-in storage. We used or created every nook for seating and storage throughout the house, as you can see in the family room, dining area, staircase landing, bedroom and bathrooms. Custom wainscoting and trim are everywhere you look, and gives a clean, polished look to this warm house.

Artsy and Edgy Master Bedroom Most of the decor in the bedroom came from vintage and antique shops. We didn't have to source decor from anywhere other than the client's home. In fact, both the headboard and nightstands are custom made! I don't think there is a wall in the home that doesn't display any art. I loved that about this client. Each piece she owns has a story. We simply just did a walk through of her home and selected pieces we felt tied in with the color scheme and design of the bedroom. We love how the beautiful Don Bowman art piece on the wall perfectly complements the luxe oversize knit throw. Photo Credit: Amy Bartlam

Design ideas for a large transitional partial sun side yard stone formal garden in Providence.

Ward Jewell, AIA was asked to design a comfortable one-story stone and wood pool house that was "barn-like" in keeping with the owner’s gentleman farmer concept. Thus, Mr. Jewell was inspired to create an elegant New England Stone Farm House designed to provide an exceptional environment for them to live, entertain, cook and swim in the large reflection lap pool. Mr. Jewell envisioned a dramatic vaulted great room with hand selected 200 year old reclaimed wood beams and 10 foot tall pocketing French doors that would connect the house to a pool, deck areas, loggia and lush garden spaces, thus bringing the outdoors in. A large cupola “lantern clerestory” in the main vaulted ceiling casts a natural warm light over the graceful room below. The rustic walk-in stone fireplace provides a central focal point for the inviting living room lounge. Important to the functionality of the pool house are a chef’s working farm kitchen with open cabinetry, free-standing stove and a soapstone topped central island with bar height seating. Grey washed barn doors glide open to reveal a vaulted and beamed quilting room with full bath and a vaulted and beamed library/guest room with full bath that bookend the main space. The private garden expanded and evolved over time. After purchasing two adjacent lots, the owners decided to redesign the garden and unify it by eliminating the tennis court, relocating the pool and building an inspired "barn". The concept behind the garden’s new design came from Thomas Jefferson’s home at Monticello with its wandering paths, orchards, and experimental vegetable garden. As a result this small organic farm, was born. Today the farm produces more than fifty varieties of vegetables, herbs, and edible flowers; many of which are rare and hard to find locally. The farm also grows a wide variety of fruits including plums, pluots, nectarines, apricots, apples, figs, peaches, guavas, avocados (Haas, Fuerte and Reed), olives, pomegranates, persimmons, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and ten different types of citrus. The remaining areas consist of drought-tolerant sweeps of rosemary, lavender, rockrose, and sage all of which attract butterflies and dueling hummingbirds. Photo Credit: Laura Hull Photography.
