Since the sunroom is a special, but highly-trafficked space in a pet-friendly home, it required a thoughtful design anchored in comfort and functionality. To highlight the curved architecture, we painted the board and batten trim and used a Schumacher sisal wallcovering on the internal panels. Accent chairs made with custom fabric complement the ever-changing backyard landscape while the cut-to-fit area rug hugs the arched room. A generous, clean-lined sofa provides an inviting place to rest while a coco bead chandelier adds another piece of eye candy to this reborn 1880’s queen.

This is an example of a mediterranean porch design in Miami.

Bluestone slab steps. Created using large slabs of bluestone, shaped on site and set one on top of the other. Typically treads of 15"-18", rise of 7". Ideal for heavily trafficked areas. Easily paired with more formal dry stack stone walls or rustic walls.

A farmhouse kitchen of clean Shaker-style cabinetry and contrasting black countertop, continuing the tonal theme of the exterior. The mudroom and pantry cabinetry beyond. Wide plank flooring throughout, with gray slate in the heavily-trafficked mudroom and hall.

Phase One took this cramped, dated lake house into a flowing, open space to maximize highly trafficked areas and provide a better sense of togetherness. Upon discovering a master bathroom leak, we also updated the bathroom giving it a sensible and functional lift in style.

This expansive Victorian had tremendous historic charm but hadn’t seen a kitchen renovation since the 1950s. The homeowners wanted to take advantage of their views of the backyard and raised the roof and pushed the kitchen into the back of the house, where expansive windows could allow southern light into the kitchen all day. A warm historic gray/beige was chosen for the cabinetry, which was contrasted with character oak cabinetry on the appliance wall and bar in a modern chevron detail.

Often, less is more. Take this landscape design composed of climbing roses, hydrangeas, and lilies surrounding a bluestone terrace. This small, suburban garden feels both expansive and intimate. Japanese forest grass softens the edge of the terrace and adds just enough of a modern look to make the garden’s owners, urban transplants, happy. “My husband and I were looking for an outdoor space that had a secret-garden feeling,” says homeowner Anne Lillis-Ruth. “We’ve had fun adding furniture, antique planters, and a stone fountain to [landscape designer] Robert Welsch’s beautiful landscape. The white and green plantings provide the perfect backdrop to my collection of colorful table linens, glassware, and china. We love our garden!” Dean Fisher loved it, too. “The setting is so lovely and relaxed. It evokes the south of France, with its intimate scale and the integration of house and patio through the use of the vines and other plantings.”
