2101 Connecticut Avenue (c.1928), an 8-story brick and limestone Beaux Arts style building with spacious apartments, is said to have been “the finest apartment house to appear in Washington between the two World Wars.” (James M. Goode, Best Addresses, 1988.) As advertised for rent in 1928, the apartments were designed “to incorporate many details that would aid the residents in establishing a home atmosphere, one possessing charm and dignity usually found only in a private house… the character and tenancy (being) assured through careful selection of guests.” Home to Senators, Ambassadors, a Vice President and a Supreme Court Justice as well as numerous Washington socialites, the building still stands as one of the undisputed “best addresses” in Washington, DC.)
So well laid-out was this gracious 3,000 sf apartment that the basic floor plan remains unchanged from the original architect’s 1927 design. The organizing feature was, and continues to be, the grand “gallery” space in the center of the unit. Every room in the apartment can be accessed via the gallery, thus preserving it as the centerpiece of the “charm and dignity” which the original design intended. Programmatic modifications consisted of the addition of a small powder room off of the foyer, and the conversion of a corner “sun room” into a room for meditation and study. The apartment received a thorough updating of all systems, services and finishes, including a new kitchen and new bathrooms, several new built-in cabinetry units, and the consolidation of numerous small closets and passageways into more accessible and efficient storage spaces.

Main Line Kitchen Design has a different business model than other kitchen showrooms, designers, and cabinetry dealers. The difference helps us to do five important things better than our competitors.
The kitchens we sell are better designed and our designers are more experienced. This is because we insist on showing customers designs we recommend, BEFORE, we do a design they request. This way, final designs tend to be more collaborative and professional. Our designers are more experienced because they are better paid and design with more cabinet brands than at other dealers.
Our pricing for cabinets is less than other cabinet dealers. This is because we do not have a showroom open to the public, and we require a small deposit and a screening before we accept customers. This helps our designers spend their time more effectively. And, it eliminates 80% of the overhead kitchen showrooms spend on staffing, larger displays, and on a curbside location.
We carry more brands of cabinetry than other dealers. This is possible because we display one cabinet for each brand we sell. Through glass countertops clients can examine a brands construction quality, and we display the door styles and finishes of our brands. Instead of the larger displays customers see in traditional showrooms, our customers can view 5 million kitchens on Houzz.com, or the hundreds of our kitchen renovations we show on Houzz, our web site, and in framed photos on the walls of our office building.
Kitchen construction is often better organized and generally costs less. This is because we recommend general contractors free of charge. They supervise construction from scheduling to completion. This eliminates a middleman, reduces delays, and eliminates the fees that almost all showrooms and home centers charge their customers. We are also happy to work with any contractor a customer finds on their own. If we haven’t worked with that contractor before they may need more of our direction, but both companies can benefit from working together and possibly referring each other in the future.
Less problems arise, and if they do, they are handled more quickly. This is because every kitchen we sell is reviewed by at least 3 kitchen designers during the ordering process. Our Operations Manager Ed Sossich checks orders and schedules all warehouse and home deliveries. Our delivery manager Mark Mitten supervises every delivery and checks in each cabinet and part. And our CRM system, Monday, prompts each person responsible for each phase of a customer’s kitchen with automated alerts. This keeps things moving, even during supply chain disruptions, and ensures no step is overlooked.
Main Line Kitchen Design’s company slogan is “The world of kitchen design is changing . . . “. We pride ourselves on being innovative in everything we do. From our web site and how we advertise, to the gift we send each customer upon the completion of their kitchen.
Our business model helps us receive 100’s of 5-star reviews, and makes our kitchen projects more enjoyable for everyone.
We look forward to working with you.

The Perfect Blend of Tradition and Timekeeping
Are you considering adding a touch of charm and elegance to your home decor? Look no further than the timeless and delightful cuckoo clock. Originating from the Black Forest region in Germany, these enchanting timepieces have captured the hearts of clock enthusiasts around the world. In this article, we will explore the top five reasons why you should buy a cuckoo clock today.
1. Immerse Yourself in German Culture
There's no better way to immerse yourself in the rich heritage of German craftsmanship and tradition than by owning an authentic cuckoo clock. With its intricate designs and meticulous craftsmanship, each cuckoo clock tells a story of German culture. From the beautifully carved wooden figurines to the enchanting melodies that accompany the cuckoo's call, these clocks are a true representation of German artistry.
Did you know? The Black Forest region in Germany has been renowned for its clockmaking since the 17th century. It is home to some of the most skilled artisans in the world.
2. Experience the Beauty of Mechanical Engineering
In today's digital age, where most timepieces are powered by batteries or electricity, owning a mechanical cuckoo clock is a delightful departure from the norm. Witnessing the intricate gears, levers, and pendulums in motion is an experience in itself. The rhythmic ticking and soothing sound of the cuckoo's call bring a sense of tranquility and nostalgia to your living space.
Fun Fact: The mechanical movement of a cuckoo clock is powered by weights that need to be wound manually. This interaction with the clock adds a tactile and engaging element to the overall experience.
3. Enhance Your Home Decor
A cuckoo clock is more than just a timekeeping device; it's a statement piece that adds character and warmth to any room. Whether you prefer a traditional chalet-style clock or a more contemporary design, there is a cuckoo clock to suit every taste and interior decor. Hang it on a prominent wall, and watch as it becomes a focal point, captivating the attention of guests and family members alike.
Pro Tip: Consider the size and color of your cuckoo clock to ensure it complements the existing elements in your room. Earthy tones like brown and black are popular choices that blend well with various decor styles.
4. Delight in the Charming Cuckoo Call
One of the most enchanting features of a cuckoo clock is, of course, the cuckoo's call itself. With each hour, the tiny bird emerges from its wooden abode and chirps the corresponding number of times. The gentle sound of the cuckoo's call evokes a sense of whimsy and nostalgia, transporting you to the idyllic Black Forest region. It's a delightful way to keep track of time and adds a touch of magic to your everyday routine.
Did you know? The cuckoo's call is produced by a small bellows system inside the clock. As air pressure changes, the bellows push air through two wooden pipes, creating the familiar "cuckoo" sound.
5. Pass Down a Cherished Heirloom
Investing in a cuckoo clock is not just a purchase; it's an investment in a cherished heirloom that can be passed down through generations. These meticulously crafted timepieces are built to stand the test of time, both in terms of durability and timeless appeal. By owning a cuckoo clock, you can create a legacy and leave a piece of your own history for your loved ones to treasure.
Pro Tip: Regular maintenance and care, such as oiling the gears and keeping the clock away from direct sunlight, can help ensure the longevity of your cuckoo clock.
FAQs about Cuckoo Clocks
Q1. How long do cuckoo clocks typically last?
Cuckoo clocks are known for their longevity. With proper care and maintenance, a well-crafted cuckoo clock can last for generations.
Q2. Do all cuckoo clocks have the same design?
No, cuckoo clocks come in various designs, ranging from traditional chalet-style clocks to more contemporary and whimsical designs. There is a wide variety to choose from, catering to different tastes and preferences.
Q3. Can I adjust the volume of the cuckoo's call?
Yes, most cuckoo clocks have a volume control feature that allows you to adjust the sound of the cuckoo's call to your liking.
Q4. Are cuckoo clocks difficult to set up and maintain?
While setting up a cuckoo clock requires some initial adjustments, it is not overly complicated. Regular maintenance, such as oiling the gears and keeping the clock clean, will ensure its smooth operation.
Q5. Are cuckoo clocks environmentally friendly?
Cuckoo clocks are generally considered environmentally friendly as they operate using mechanical movements and do not rely on electricity or batteries. However, it is important to ensure that the wood used in the clock is sourced responsibly.
Q6. Can I find cuckoo clocks with modern features, such as automatic night shut-off?
Yes, many modern cuckoo clocks offer additional features like automatic night shut-off to silence the clock during the nighttime hours, ensuring a peaceful sleep.
In Conclusion
Owning a cuckoo clock is a delightful way to bring a touch of German tradition and craftsmanship into your home. From immersing yourself in German culture to experiencing the beauty of mechanical engineering, a cuckoo clock offers much more than just timekeeping. So why wait? Indulge in the enchantment of a cuckoo clock today and create a cherished heirloom that will be treasured for years to come.

This helps our designers spend their time more effectively. And, it eliminates 80% of the overhead kitchen showrooms spend on staffing, larger displays, and on a curbside location.
We carry more brands of cabinetry than other dealers. This is possible because we display one cabinet for each brand we sell. Through glass countertops clients can examine a brands construction quality, and we display the door styles and finishes of our brands. Instead of the larger displays customers see in traditional showrooms, our customers can view 5 million kitchens on Houzz.com, or the hundreds of our kitchen renovations we show on Houzz, our web site, and in framed photos on the walls of our office building.
Kitchen construction is often better organized and generally costs less. This is because we recommend general contractors free of charge. They supervise construction from scheduling to completion. This eliminates a middleman, reduces delays, and eliminates the fees that almost all showrooms and home centers charge their customers. We are also happy to work with any contractor a customer finds on their own. If we haven’t worked with that contractor before they may need more of our direction, but both companies can benefit from working together and possibly referring each other in the future.
Less problems arise, and if they do, they are handled more quickly. This is because every kitchen we sell is reviewed by at least 3 kitchen designers during the ordering process. Our Operations Manager Ed Sossich checks orders and schedules all warehouse and home deliveries. Our delivery manager Mark Mitten supervises every delivery and checks in each cabinet and part. And our CRM system, Monday, prompts each person responsible for each phase of a customer’s kitchen with automated alerts. This keeps things moving, even during supply chain disruptions, and ensures no step is overlooked.
Main Line Kitchen Design’s company slogan is “The world of kitchen design is changing . . . “. We pride ourselves on being innovative in everything we do. From our web site and how we advertise, to the gift we send each customer upon the completion of their kitchen.
Our business model helps us receive 100’s of 5-star reviews, and makes our kitchen projects more enjoyable for everyone.
We look forward to working with you.

Main Line Kitchen Design has a different business model than other kitchen showrooms, designers, and cabinetry dealers. The difference helps us to do five important things better than our competitors.
The kitchens we sell are better designed and our designers are more experienced. This is because we insist on showing customers designs we recommend, BEFORE, we do a design they request. This way, final designs tend to be more collaborative and professional. Our designers are more experienced because they are better paid and design with more cabinet brands than at other dealers.
