Planning
The owners were confident that their new home could meet their need without adding space, so the first step was to evaluate the existing features. The home was redesigned and now reflects our client’s lifestyle and personality. The redesign also respects the bold expression of the original design.
Design Details
- We removed the massive masonry fireplace, opening up the living and dining areas to the kitchen
- The kitchen and pantry were expanded
- Structural modifications were made to increase natural light in the kitchen and to increase the size of the master bedroom
- Updated finishes and flooring were added throughout to refresh the starkly modern interior, including white quartz countertops to contrast with dark walnut cabinetry and glass tile abutting pitted steel plate
- Completed extensive air sealing and added insulation to increase the comfort, durability, and efficiency
