Example of a transitional home design design in Chicago

Synthetic turf was installed for easy maintenance. Also no sprinklers to cause water damage to the concrete. Stone was added to the patio pillars to match the pool area and tie everything together. Multiple walkways come out from the patio to help with the flow of traffic.

Having opened the wall between the previous dining area and kitchen space gives a better flow for traffic while allowing the chef to work.
Kitchen - modern kitchen idea in New York

2013 NARI CAPITAL COTY, MERIT AWARD WINNER, RESIDENTIAL EXTERIOR A family of five living in a Chantilly, Virginia, neighborhood with a lot of improvement going on decided to do a project of their own. An active family, they decided their old deck was ragged, beat up and needed revamping. After discussing their needs, the design team at Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes developed a plan for a covered porch and a wrap-around upscale deck. Traffic flow and multiple entrances were important, as was a place for the kids to leave their muddy shoes. A double staircase leading the deck into the large backyard provides a panoramic view of the parkland behind the property. A side staircase lets the kids come into the covered porch and mudroom prior to entering the main house. The covered porch touts large colonial style columns, a beaded cedar (stained) ceiling, recess lighting, ceiling fans and a large television with outdoor surround sound. The deck touts synthetic railing and stained grade decking and offers extended living space just outside of the kitchen and family room, as well as a grill space and outdoor patio seating. This new outdoor facility has become the jewel of their neighborhood and now the family can enjoy their backyard activities more than ever.

David Woo The main fridge is counter depth with French doors so it doesn't interfere with traffic. To make up for a smaller fridge volume, a two drawer under counter fridge was installed in the peninsula. We put drinks in the under counter fridge and food in the main fridge which has the added benefit of distributing the traffic to either side of the kitchen. This works amazingly well. The space above the fridge we turned into a display area which acknowledges that this is a hard to reach area and best used for non-daily activity. LED strip lighting lights the space and reduces a potential dark spot in the kitchen.

Original stencil work on the 2nd-story wood floors are similar to the first floor. A conservator restored the stenciling where it had been worn away in high traffic areas.

Seagrass is an abundant marine grass with thick, flat and smooth fibers. It exhibits a splendid range of natural color ranging from green to brown-it is never dyed. Its fiber is extraordinarily durable and is a perfect fit for traffic areas.
