Eichler X-100 Living Room: A Masterclass in Light, Space, and Modern Living
The living room of the Eichler X-100 is where architecture becomes art—an expansive, light-filled environment that captures the pure essence of mid-century modern design. Conceived by A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons for Joseph Eichler, this space is both visually striking and effortlessly livable.
A Space Defined by Freedom
At its core, the living room is made possible by the X-100’s revolutionary steel-frame construction, which removes the need for interior structural walls. The result is a completely open, uninterrupted volume—a rarity even by today’s standards.
This structural freedom allows the room to feel expansive yet grounded, with clean lines and an unmistakable sense of architectural clarity.
Light as the Primary Material
In the X-100, light is not an afterthought—it is the defining element. The living room is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass walls, drawing in natural light and framing the surrounding landscape like a series of ever-changing artworks.
Above, continuous skylights introduce a soft, diffused glow that shifts throughout the day, giving the space a dynamic, almost ethereal quality.
The result is a room that feels alive—constantly evolving with the light.
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Connection
The living room opens directly to outdoor spaces through large sliding glass panels, creating a fluid transition between interior and exterior living. Whether fully opened or closed, the connection to nature is always present.
This is California Modernism at its best:
a lifestyle built around openness, air, and light.
Framed Views and Architectural Alignment
Every sightline within the living room has been carefully considered. Views extend through the home toward interior gardens, atriums, and beyond, reinforcing a sense of continuity and connection.
Even the structure—expressed through exposed steel elements—becomes part of the visual composition, anchoring the openness with a subtle industrial elegance.
A Space for Gathering and Reflection
While expansive, the living room remains intimate in its experience. It is equally suited for entertaining as it is for quiet moments—reading, relaxing, or simply appreciating the architecture itself.
There is a calmness here, a balance between openness and comfort that defines the very best of Eichler design.
The Heart of the Vision
The living room of the Eichler X-100 is not just a place to sit—it is a manifestation of a larger idea: that space, light, and structure can come together to create something both functional and deeply inspiring.
It is, in every sense, a living expression of the future Eichler imagined.

This Pond project consisted of removal and rebuilding of existing stream and pond. All new pond components were installed. The installation included pond liner, pump, rock, skimmer and filtration. This is a complete Aquascape ecosystem pond. The pond is roughly 15’x 20′ at its largest and has a 20′ meandering stream. We also installed a custom fire bowl spillway fountain. The self-contained fire fountain is a water feature with a fire feature in the center making it an ideal focal point or centerpiece to any outdoor setting. We customized this fountain to include a spillway as well. it is no longer self-contained. We incorporated it to work with the pond system. Simply add paraffin or “tiki torch fuel” and you’re ready to go. We also installed an automatic dosing system for ease of maintenance. This Pond was installed in Lancaster, PA. We also did some renovation work on the flagstone walkway along the pond.

Design objectives for the remodel were aimed at giving the kitchen a larger feel, more room for cooking and extra seating for entertaining:
-Island with seating
-Space for a larger range/cooking area
-More storage with cabinets to the ceiling
-Making the original dining room blend with the kitchen so it all feels like one space
Design challenges to be solved:
-Making the header between the kitchen and the old dining room make sense as we combined the two spaces
-Avoid feeling crammed – a large island with seating still needed space for people walking around the space
-Refrigerator location – the header and window placements needed to stay, so finding a new and functional place for the fridge was a priority
-Add a large hood for wow-factor appeal
Design solutions fell into place as the overall layout came together:
-A large island to seat their four-person family comfortably. -Seating on two sides of the island improves conversation and has a great look.
-Knocking out a dining room wall gave us more room for the island. The leftover part of the dining was perfect for a dry bar/beverage area.
-The refrigerator needed to blend in and also be easily accessible. We removed the built-in pantry and used this space to house the refrigerator/freezer. Then we added tall pantry cabinets throughout the kitchen to make up for the loss of space.
-A large metal hood broke up the space and made for a fun statement piece
The new space is perfect for family time when the kids are back. It’s more conducive for being together, hanging out together, and entertaining with different friend groups together… the family simply spends more time together when they’re together in their new space.
“It’s the design and the openness,” the mom says. “Everybody loves it and gathers around the island all the time. It’s the lighting, too – it’s brighter in here. It’s just more open. We love it!”

This project started with an older kitchen that really needed some pizzazz and an update to a more open concept look. We started by removing the old support wall between the kitchen and living room and installing a new support beam to handle the weight. once that had been accomplished, the new hardwood floor was put down followed by new cabinetry painted in Benjamin Moores "Simply White" with the complimentary Island colour "Hale Navy". Cambria 3cm thick quartz countertops were then installed with a beautiful white undermount sink and stunning Brushed gold faucet to match the door hardware. We then installed the finishing touch, the subway backsplash and specially selected detailed mosaic tile behind the stove and exhaust hood for a stunning final result. Matching light fixtures also carried the brushed gold theme to a new level....outstanding!!!

Our team completed this simple and beautiful kitchen in 2023. We removed the kitchen partition wall and installed a 3-ply LVL beam which we then cladded in an unfinished oak veneer. The cabinets were built custom and painted Benjamin Moore Gunmetal - 1902. We also tiled the kitchen, dining and sitting area floor, and backsplash. The idea was to simply maximize the kitchen space but to open up area and allow more natural light in. The clients have a rear addition with a separate living area which made this layout more feasible.

Our homeowner came to us with an older backsplit bungalow with 3 traditionally divided rooms which they wanted to unify into one large kitchen and family room space. After removing all the walls and bulkheads we were able to put new plank flooring throughout the new open space. We then installed new, Benjamin Moore painted custom cabinetry in the kitchen area followed by stunning Cambria quartz countertops in the "Portrush" colour. Glazed backsplash was then installed to complete the look. The colour combinations and the final look and feel is simply stunning! Have a look at the before pics to see where we started.

This was a fun project because the original kitchen was so small even though the house is approximately 2000 square ft. By simply opening the space by removing a non load bearing wall sperating the dining room, we made a dramatic change in the way the home owners can use the space. Aside from having the use and conveniences of a modern day kitchen, they are now able to effectively entertain their guests, which they now do more often.

When we arrived at this kitchen in Solebury it was dated and closed in. A center peninsula divided the space and a wall at the end separated a tiny dining room. We completely redesigned the layout by removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room and adding a window to gain some natural light.
The homeowners loved the rich cranberry color but struggled to integrate it without overwhelming the space with red. The window treatments and floor to ceiling pantry gave us the perfect opportunity to accent the color palette throughout the room. Some open shelving and a chair rail along the top of the backsplash allow for decoration and keep the counters clutter free.
This quickly became one of our favorite kitchen renovations simply because of the dramatic changes we were able to make

There were a few difficulties in making this kitchen any better than how it was. There was a separate staircase that had access to the second floor which was located in the kitchen. This left just enough room to push the dining room to one side. Then, there was the porch. A really nice panoramic view of the back, but was somehow under-used by the family during the summer months. Then, it was the size of the kitchen. It simply was way too small for a growing family, and while it had a peninsular in place, the flow just didn’t work. I remember watching them one day demonstrating how awkward it was using the kitchen. We got it! We had our marching orders to go and figure out how to make this kitchen work for this family.
Everything in the room was fair play. The design was done to make the kitchen very open. For a few ideas, we incorporated the porch in the kitchen by using the nana wall idea but it ended up being too cost prohibitive to do so. We then decided to do a permanent fix by using a commercial glass wall application. Once we figured that out, we moved back inside and removed the staircase. This gave us two added benefits. One allowed us to really reconfigure the kitchen and the other opened up the second floor for a huge built in closet system.
We relocated the windows, added a fire place with a built In TV above. From there, it was onto the kitchen itself which contained a huge Island with seating, large kitchen sink and built in appliances which was set up in a way to take advantage of the new layout. We re-positioned the kitchen facing the beautiful views outside rather than looking towards a wall. Now, when you enter the house up the entry stairs, the kitchen now draws you into the magnificent new open space. This is now setup for entertaining, relaxation, hanging out and most of all, preparing meals in a room where you only have to leave if you want to.
This one was all about the design. Design was what made this space. Setting this space up for success was crucial, and this kitchen is a great example of how design can cover a multitude of sins in Kitchen designs.
… Just close your eyes for a second and imagine waking up one winter morning and having a cup of coffee and watching the snow fall through those huge windows, leaning up against those 3D feature walls while watching the kids sitting around the table enjoying those warm radiant heated floors in this spacious kitchen…..

Classic meets Modern in this West Village historic home renovation! Preserving the character and architectural integrity of this home while updating it for this modern busy family, we infused the design with old world charm but make it hip. We started by ripping everything down to the studs, re-arranging the kitchen for a more open feel, adding an oversized accordion door facing the backyard, and adding a powder room where the hallway used to be.
Opening up the 1st floor from front to back allowed the eye to carry along from the entry to the patio. While maintaining a neutral background, we played around with pops of jewel-tones in the accent furniture and art. The stunning Thomas Newman Pearl Chandelier centered the sitting area around the original fireplace. The original vestibule was removed creating an open welcoming foyer, fitted with checkerboard marble floor. While the stairs for all 3 floors of the home were completely reconstructed, we were able to keep the original spindles and handrail, simply updating it with a dramatic black stain.

For this kitchen remodeling project, our homeowners were looking to change their space to make the kitchen more open. We removed the existing peninsula, which allowed us to install a new kitchen island for them. Some of their cabinets were still in good condition, so we were able to keep them and simply reface them. The rest of the kitchen saw us installing all new cabinets. Our clients went with the Refuge door style in the Agave color from our Kitchen Solvers Showcase Collection. For the island they changed it up and did the cabinets in a pearl color. To finish this beautiful transformation, we installed a new Calcutta Laza quartz countertop along with a Zellenger Pearl backsplash. Just look at this stunning transformation!

For this project, my client’s goal was to remove a rarely-used existing bath tub next to a medium-sized shower and replace it all with a roomy, open, walk-in shower. With soaring, ten-foot high ceilings, this space became a luxurious statement in minimalism!
I chose a neutral, linen-striated ceramic tile for the floor which, since we were creating a barrier-free shower, meant I could run this tile into the shower and add a hidden, tiled drain for a continuous, seamless look. This makes the bathroom appear even larger. For interest, I added opulent, large-format, ceramic tiles with a blue- and grey-veined marble pattern trimmed out with metal strips. A grand glass wall separates the wet area from the rest of the bathroom. Controls for the shower were wisely placed at the entrance which also features towel hooks and a towel bar on a coordinating panel of blue marble ceramic tile.
The rest of the bathroom received a modern makeover as well with a crisp, custom-built vanity and quartz counter top replacing the old tile counter. Undermount sinks and sculptural hardware sit under modern mirrors with integrated LED lights for maximum light on the face. To top this design off, I chose a glamorous but tailored chandelier with discreet crystal embellishments to infuse sophistication into this sleek, minimalist space.
The new room is light, bright, and uncluttered. For this client, the ultimate luxury is not having a space full of things, but having a space that is simply full of space!

THE SETUP
Senior Designer Diana Burton’s client loved her sixties-era home – it just needed some work. The cozy galley kitchen was narrow and mostly closed off from the family room. A pass-through window served as a limited pipeline for treats and chatter. The appliances were failing, too. It was simply time for an overhaul.
Design Objectives:
Remove load bearing wall and open kitchen to the family room
Omit large unused fireplace in family room
Increase work surfaces and overall storage solutions
Dedicated small countertop appliance storage
Seating for 3 or 4 at island
Add pantry storage
Offer solution for lack of mudroom
Upgrade all appliances
THE REMODEL
Design Challenges:
Finding a location to hide structural support for new beam
Reworking awkward configuration of existing walls
Adding a walk-in pantry
Creating mudroom storage
Allowing room for large sectional in family room
Design Solutions:
Add a discreet column by the fridge to hide essential support
Flush out wall by bath to be even with the range wall, where the new walk in pantry exists
Use void space behind new wall for large appliance garage
Create combination walk in pantry/mudroom by adding bench with shoe storage and hooks
Maintain island depth for comfortable seating without infringing on space for the sectional
THE RENEWED SPACE
This cramped, dated kitchen has a new lease on life! Opening it to the family room dramatically transformed the space. Diana’s client now has plenty of storage, a big island for food prep, and an open-concept space that’s perfect for entertaining and hanging out with friends and family.

We are very proud of this kitchen renovation, for an older home in Kemptville. The house as you can see from the before photos, was quite dated, to the original kitchen, so it was time for an upgrade.
We removed a wall, separating the dining area to the kitchen, and had to install a beam above the island. We simply clad it in drywall for a clean aesthetic.
You would not know that these two spaces were one and the same.
The quality and care Gilbert executed in this renovation is top notch!
