To tell a friendly story of the history of the house, salvaged wood was used on shelves and selected wood tops, which also brought in the warmth this Vermont house deserved. To bring in industrial influences into this modern design, new steel I-Beams and posts was brought into the design and it was ‘aged’ by talented local artisan by applying custom white wash on the steel I-beams which also softened its lines. Existing wood floors also was custom painted to suggest a more modern effect and to complement the concrete fireplace For the living room fireplace surround, complementary finishes and colors were creating by using a blend of raw steel panels for it’s back wall, which contrasted beautifully with gray concrete fireplace box. Additionally, a darker gray concrete tone which was selected for the cantilevered fireplace heart. To further enhance the textures of steel and concrete, salvaged wood was used for cantilevered from the steel back wall panel. For other metal finishes, brushed chrome metal finishes along with the use of both raw and galvanized steel was used in other selected area to further to support a modern and industrial design theme. - Photo credit: Susan Teare

This zero lot line side area was dirt with 2 overgrown, unhealthy fruit trees before I designed the area to be both eye-pleasing and functional. The desert climate demands special consideration, so artificial turf was used as a 'doggy deposit' area, while the pavers lead from the front part of the house to the rear yard with pool, spa & BBQ, with lake and golf course views beyond. A combination of small and larger rocks require no water & create a riverbed effect & contrast against the green succulents. A bench offers quiet respite and view to the lake beyond.
