Flooded with natural light, the veranda stairway includes a hand-wrought steel railing that stands strong against the backdrop of weathered oak. The stairwell is truly a work of art and a testament to the craftsmanship of the home. Discarded 1-by-1 weathered oak slats were reused for the interior pine wall siding, and a salvaged cast-iron grate was inlaid into the wooden stair landing and lit from the underside, creating a beautiful pattern that is cast onto the wall at night. Solid bronze light fixtures imported from Egypt cast light that warms the stairwell space. Photographer: Blake Mistich

This room was added to the upper level of the home as a north facing dormer. A repurposed claw-foot tub and a buffet was used as the basis for the vanity to which we added additional cabinetry on the left side to fill in the space. A wood plank porcelain tile was used for the flooring and taken into the curbless steam shower. A bench was created for the steam shower and as a shelf adjacent to the tub for use by the bather. The blue accent tile color was repeated on the underside of the tub and on the adjacent wall as an accent. It was also used in the separate toilet room on the wall. A custom rubbed painted finish was used on all the cabinetry. Hudson Valley sconces were used.

Dark honed granite tops the island with rustic alder cabinets. Upper cabinets float above the dual-level island that houses the stove and commercial grade ice maker. To give a clean look, the granite continues as a backsplash with outlets located only under the cabinets. The upper cabinets are suspended from the ceiling, which had to be reinforced, by steel pipes that also conceal wiring for the LED under cabinet and in cabinet lighting and under cabinet receptacle power strips. Custom glass shelves and doors in the upper cabinets help to define the dining area from the kitchen while allowing light to filter through. The opposite island contains the sink, dishwasher and an in cabinet microwave drawer. The oversize granite top extends past the cabinets, allowing for casual seating adjacent to the Great Room. Both islands are faced with pre-cast stone that repeats the natural elements of the exterior. Exposed beams with historic warehouse flooring is utilized as the kitchen/dining room ceiling and also the 2nd floor loft/bedroom/bathroom flooring. Since both sides are visible, all planks on the underside had to be individually sanded and hand finished before hidden deck fastener installation. Utilizing the same material as the ceiling, a chase was constructed to allow sub contractors to supply electric, ventilation and the sound system. Cable lighting provides a minimalist look without obstructing any views.

Custom Contemporary Home Design Wayland, MA Expansion of the original building footprint (the original home was torn down) was not allowed, by zoning ordinance. This meant the design could not add a Garage to the site, which was highly desired. To solve the issue of protected parking for the home, Tektoniks Architects designed a cantilevered roof, which also forms the principle organizing element (a "spine") for the design. A Special Permit was obtained to allow us to utilize "air rights" over the required front setback to give proper coverage for the Owner's cars. Structural supports were placed at the limits of the required setback, and the structural design provided the necessary cantilever. The underside cladding of the Carport forms the aesthetic for the eaves and interior spaces of the home, with the slatted wood treatment extending continuously from front to back for the entire roof.
