Inspiration for a transitional walk-out carpeted basement remodel in Chicago with beige walls, a standard fireplace and a stone fireplace

A complete home remodel, our #AJMBLifeInTheSuburbs project is the perfect Westfield, NJ story of keeping the charm in town. Our homeowners had a vision to blend their updated and current style with the original character that was within their home. Think dark wood millwork, original stained glass windows, and quirky little spaces. The end result is the perfect blend of historical Westfield charm paired with today's modern style.

This stunning Eastern Suburbs kitchen design comes to life at night with blue and purple 'disco strip' LED lighting under mounted in kitchen and vanities. The owners completely remodeled the home including the kitchen, ensuite and bathroom. Previously a bedroom, two walls were removed to accommodate the new kitchen to create an open plan living area and extend the overall living area. Cabinetry in Polyurethane Antique, matching Kirribilli-style cabinet doors, feature panel glass doors, Butler sink and Shaker-style handles all contribute to create a traditional style kitchen. The Calcutta marble benchtop and splashback unifies the contrasting black of the Island and kickboards. The black and white theme extends from the kitchen through to the bathroom and laundry.

This is a gorgeous front door and porch of a contemporary home in the suburbs. Note the door, a Belleville smooth 1-panel Hollister Door 3/4 Lite with Iron Springs Glass. It still gives you your privacy but allows natural light to enter your home.

The landscape design for this property in an established New York City suburb marries stately elegance with relaxed outdoor living. The greatest challenge of the site was a considerable grade change over a small area (a third of an acre). We replaced overgrown shrubs and crumbling stonework with a clean hardscape design that clearly defines the flow around the property. A long play lawn in front is linked to a sideyard patio space and natural-gas campfire with broad bluestone block steps. A cozy dining terrace behind the house is hugged by a retaining wall that showcases friendly flowering plants and edibles. Set into the terrace wall is a custom water feature that brings sound and movement to the seating area. Exposed ledge in the backyard provides a fun playspace for adventurous kids, with a rope bridge leading to a playhouse.
