Antique Modern

On the exterior, we transformed a previous garage into a new addition, which now houses a new mudroom, storage area in the front of the house and connects to breakfast room in the rear. To connect the new addition to the landscape, bi-fold doors flank either side of the breakfast room, for maximum indoor to outdoor living and entertaining. As an added feature for this cinema-loving family, we included a privacy shade which doubles as a pocket movie screen that can be slid across the face of the bi-fold door for outdoor movie watching.

In the kitchen, we transformed a previously cramped and inefficient layout into a gracious cooks kitchen that boasts a new island, coffee bar, custom cabinetry and a stunning quartz backsplash that leads up to a vaulted ceiling detail on either side of the stove—adding height and character to the space.  A muted palette of soft white and charcoal grey are juxtaposed by bright brass finishes and pendants. Next to the kitchen, we took down a wall and created two cabinets on either side which open into the dining room, creating an open & airy concept on the first floor. The end result is a home that feels inviting and comfortably intimate for everyday family use as well as for formal entertaining.
