The site slopes down sharply. Prior to the creation of this courtyard, the owners had scarcely any useable outdoor space at the rear of their house.

Stripped of its original charm with sagging floors and water leaks, this 1900 row house was prime for a full renovation. While the staircase and marble fireplace are original, everything from the white oak flooring, crown, applied, and base moldings, to the archways and brass door hardware is new; yet they all feel original to the house. Other projects included removing soffits and tucking away randomly placed support beams and posts, relocating and expanding the kitchen, renovating each bathroom – and adding a new one, upgrading all the mechanical, electric and plumbing systems, removing a fireplace, and regrading the back patio for proper drainage and added greenery. The project is a perfect study of juxtaposing new and old, classic and modern. Photography Stacy Zarin Goldberg

After photo of the space. The granite top plays off of the simulated slate porcelain tile was in the shower and wainscoting at the claw-foot tub. White china sinks were used to tie into the tub and toilet color. Walls were painted gray to compliment the tile flooring and stone/glass tile banding present in the shower and tub wainscot. Oil rubbed bronze vintage fixtures were utilized to play of of the claw-foot tub. Shower enclosed with 3/8" glass clear glass to keep the space feeling more open. Simulated slate porcelain tile flooring installed in a pinwheel pattern utilized random pieces of the tile from the tub wainscot and shower for accent. Photo by: Chiemi Photography

One-of-a-kind stair rails were hand-crafted to create a work-of-art. Interior trim elements utilized a furniture grade finish that was pocket screwed and biscuited for the longevity of the joints. The floors and stair treads were reclaimed random width micro-beveled and wire brush white oak that was hand-selected from barns of the early 1800s. You won’t see this level of customization in any other home!

The "guest house" was limited by zoning code to 1000 square feet and therefore the plan had to be extremely efficient. The exterior composition utilizes river rock from the site and hand-peeled fir posts as an exposed structural system, a copper standing-seam roof and shingle siding in a randomly placed pattern. The stables cannot be seen in this photo but the owner's love of horses is displayed in the galloping copper weather vane.

A pond and stream are hidden along these steps. Backyard steps utilize large flagstone pieces. Irish moss, blue star creeper, scotch moss, and mini mondo grass are a few of the plants growing between the stones. This yard has over 60 Japanese Maples and lots of ferns, ligularias, hydrangeas, and other shade plants Erik Jones

When a client tells us they’re a mid-century collector and long for a kitchen design unlike any other we are only too happy to oblige. This kitchen is saturated in mid-century charm and its custom features make it difficult to pin-point our favorite aspect! Cabinetry We had the pleasure of partnering with one of our favorite Denver cabinet shops to make our walnut dreams come true! We were able to include a multitude of custom features in this kitchen including frosted glass doors in the island, open cubbies, a hidden cutting board, and great interior cabinet storage. But what really catapults these kitchen cabinets to the next level is the eye-popping angled wall cabinets with sliding doors, a true throwback to the magic of the mid-century kitchen. Streamline brushed brass cabinetry pulls provided the perfect lux accent against the handsome walnut finish of the slab cabinetry doors. Tile Amidst all the warm clean lines of this mid-century kitchen we wanted to add a splash of color and pattern, and a funky backsplash tile did the trick! We utilized a handmade yellow picket tile with a high variation to give us a bit of depth; and incorporated randomly placed white accent tiles for added interest and to compliment the white sliding doors of the angled cabinets, helping to bring all the materials together. Counter We utilized a quartz along the counter tops that merged lighter tones with the warm tones of the cabinetry. The custom integrated drain board (in a starburst pattern of course) means they won’t have to clutter their island with a large drying rack. As an added bonus, the cooktop is recessed into the counter, to create an installation flush with the counter surface. Stair Rail Not wanting to miss an opportunity to add a touch of geometric fun to this home, we designed a custom steel handrail. The zig-zag design plays well with the angles of the picket tiles and the black finish ties in beautifully with the black metal accents in the kitchen. Lighting We removed the original florescent light box from this kitchen and replaced it with clean recessed lights with accents of recessed undercabinet lighting and a terrifically vintage fixture over the island that pulls together the black and brushed brass metal finishes throughout the space. This kitchen has transformed into a strikingly unique space creating the perfect home for our client’s mid-century treasures.
