When Cummings Architects first met with the owners of this understated country farmhouse, the building’s layout and design was an incoherent jumble. The original bones of the building were almost unrecognizable. All of the original windows, doors, flooring, and trims – even the country kitchen – had been removed. Mathew and his team began a thorough design discovery process to find the design solution that would enable them to breathe life back into the old farmhouse in a way that acknowledged the building’s venerable history while also providing for a modern living by a growing family.
The redesign included the addition of a new eat-in kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, wrap around porch, and stone fireplaces. To begin the transforming restoration, the team designed a generous, twenty-four square foot kitchen addition with custom, farmers-style cabinetry and timber framing. The team walked the homeowners through each detail the cabinetry layout, materials, and finishes. Salvaged materials were used and authentic craftsmanship lent a sense of place and history to the fabric of the space.
The new master suite included a cathedral ceiling showcasing beautifully worn salvaged timbers. The team continued with the farm theme, using sliding barn doors to separate the custom-designed master bath and closet. The new second-floor hallway features a bold, red floor while new transoms in each bedroom let in plenty of light. A summer stair, detailed and crafted with authentic details, was added for additional access and charm.
Finally, a welcoming farmer’s porch wraps around the side entry, connecting to the rear yard via a gracefully engineered grade. This large outdoor space provides seating for large groups of people to visit and dine next to the beautiful outdoor landscape and the new exterior stone fireplace.
Though it had temporarily lost its identity, with the help of the team at Cummings Architects, this lovely farmhouse has regained not only its former charm but also a new life through beautifully integrated modern features designed for today’s family.

CRI guided these homeowners through the process of choosing a patterned glass for their bedroom transom window. This room will temporarily serve as a guest bedroom and eventually return to an office, so this versatile pattern was chosen to easily transition the space. Glass pictured is Krinkle pattern.

The conversion of this iconic American barn into a Writer’s Studio was conceived of as a tranquil retreat with natural light and lush views to stimulate inspiration for both husband and wife. Originally used as a garage with two horse stalls, the existing stick framed structure provided a loft with ideal space and orientation for a secluded studio. Signature barn features were maintained and enhanced such as horizontal siding, trim, large barn doors, cupola, roof overhangs, and framing. New features added to compliment the contextual significance and sustainability aspect of the project were reclaimed lumber from a razed barn used as flooring, driftwood retrieved from the shores of the Hudson River used for trim, and distressing / wearing new wood finishes creating an aged look. Along with the efforts for maintaining the historic character of the barn, modern elements were also incorporated into the design to provide a more current ensemble based on its new use. Elements such a light fixtures, window configurations, plumbing fixtures and appliances were all modernized to appropriately represent the present way of life.

This outdoor party room is part of a larger Oasis Architecture project that will be featured here soon. The entire corner of the existing 1888 house was temporarily shored up and removed to insert this new elliptical gathering space, which will be a focal point for the homeowners' graciousness. Pre-bent glulam girders support intricate carpentry work. Contractor: Nick Savva.

We were introduced to this turn of the century home in Anacortes, Wa. with a request from the owner to remove what was left of an existing deck and create a courtyard and new lower deck to compliment the home. The upper deck was in dire need of attention as well. The deck was temporarily supported during the courtyard construction, then properly supported and reconstructed. The waterproof coating is a multi-step process commonly referred to as "Span-Tex".

We updated this light, airy home to better reflect the serene outdoor beauty without. All new layout, windows, deck, new surfaces. Remodeled by Blue Sound Construction, Interior Design by KP Spaces, Design by Brian David Roberts, Photography by Miranda Estes.

According to a report from the United Kingdom, the glare of the setting sun plays a part in nearly 3,000 road accidents every year with drivers at risk of being temporarily 'blinded' by the dazzle of the sun on their car windscreens.
Did you know that installing and applying Solar Gard® automotive window tints can significantly reduce glare caused by the sun as well as oncoming headlights at night? But that is not all as it will also reduce the driver's risk of being blinded by the reflection of rain water from the roads when it deflects against the metal or windshields of other vehicles.
