This zealous gardener was tired of her pool taking up so much space in her landscape. She asked me for ideas. The answer was simple. Since her garden brings her so much joy, I proposed adding more garden rooms to experience. We removed the large expansive pool and replaced it with a small reflecting pond that doubles as the pool. This allowed us to create 4 new garden spaces. We replaced all concrete pavers with natural PA flagstone. The traditional square lawn provides elements of simplicity, elegance and classical style while creating a new play space for the grand kids. The pergola creates depth and a great focal point from the loggia. We illuminated all the walkways and garden rooms with Escort Lighting. One of the most fun transformations was converting the spa to a fish pond. The pond provides just enough sound to drain out all neighborhood activities. In the front, we created a new permeable brick paving parking area. The parking area was designed to keep visitors from venturing to the back parking. We chose the permeable brick pavers to collect runoff that is becoming more of a problem in the neighborhood. Our final piece to this property was to come up with a unique solution creating additional privacy while minimizing root damage to the existing plant material. Our client was looking for a permanent solution that required little to no maintenance. Masonry walls were out due to the necessary footers. We looked at fence options. Wood and plastics were out, so we created post out of steel “I” beams and setting concrete lintels in between the lintels. It was perfect. This has to be one of my favorite projects to design and implement of my 25 year experience.

Idea Design designed a fun, functional space for the community of active adults at Meadow View Farms in Oley, PA. The great room was designed around an open plan and blue/green color palette. The colors were chosen to create a feeling of tradition with a twist of contemporary.

The rich cherry cabinets and creamy natural stone create a traditional statement, while maintaining a light and bright overall feel. The stacked cabinets have glass inserts at the top which allows the cabinets to extend to the ceiling without feeling top heavy. The marble backsplash is complimented by glass tile accents that add to the space without overwhelming it. The glass brings a bit of whimsy to the overall traditional space. The large windows and patio doors bring in a great presence of natural light and take advantage of the sweeping ocean views. High end appliances, including a wine cooler and an induction cook top allow this family to cook with ease. Ample storage and counter space allow for large gatherings of family and friends, or just a quiet evening at home.

The New Traditional home featured in this photo shoot has a second floor deck overlooking the backyard and pool. This deck is an easily accessible and comfortable area for relaxing and observing the activity in the yard below. Mounted under the overhang and next to the door are Provincial Lantern 9 inch Wide Curved Arm Exterior Wall Lights. The lanterns on the deck coordinate with the wall mounted garage lanterns and larger pier mounted lanterns along the driveway. The outdoor lights are shown in genuine Verdigris Patina metal finish and Clear Seeded art glass panels which underscore the classic, comfortable theme of the home’s exterior design.

Sometimes we like it traditional! This family that is very active in their community, needed a kitchen that will endure a lot of traffic, and have ample storage for oversized cookware and serving pieces, to be able to accommodate the weekly Shabbos Kiddish that they host. Can you spot the hiding place for the huge cholont pot?

This traditional kitchen has two tier cabinetry with recessed-panel and glass front cabinets. With a marble topped island that has plenty of room and space for cooking and actives in the kitchen.
