These clients came to my office looking for an architect who could design their "empty nest" home that would be the focus of their soon to be extended family. A place where the kids and grand kids would want to hang out: with a pool, open family room/ kitchen, garden; but also one-story so there wouldn't be any unnecessary stairs to climb. They wanted the design to feel like "old Pasadena" with the coziness and attention to detail that the era embraced. My sensibilities led me to recall the wonderful classic mansions of San Marino, so I designed a manor house clad in trim Bluestone with a steep French slate roof and clean white entry, eave and dormer moldings that would blend organically with the future hardscape plan and thoughtfully landscaped grounds. The site was a deep, flat lot that had been half of the old Joan Crawford estate; the part that had an abandoned swimming pool and small cabana. I envisioned a pavilion filled with natural light set in a beautifully planted park with garden views from all sides. Having a one-story house allowed for tall and interesting shaped ceilings that carved into the sheer angles of the roof. The most private area of the house would be the central loggia with skylights ensconced in a deep woodwork lattice grid and would be reminiscent of the outdoor “Salas” found in early Californian homes. The family would soon gather there and enjoy warm afternoons and the wonderfully cool evening hours together. Working with interior designer Jeffrey Hitchcock, we designed an open family room/kitchen with high dark wood beamed ceilings, dormer windows for daylight, custom raised panel cabinetry, granite counters and a textured glass tile splash. Natural light and gentle breezes flow through the many French doors and windows located to accommodate not only the garden views, but the prevailing sun and wind as well. The graceful living room features a dramatic vaulted white painted wood ceiling and grand fireplace flanked by generous double hung French windows and elegant drapery. A deeply cased opening draws one into the wainscot paneled dining room that is highlighted by hand painted scenic wallpaper and a barrel vaulted ceiling. The walnut paneled library opens up to reveal the waterfall feature in the back garden. Equally picturesque and restful is the view from the rotunda in the master bedroom suite.

DreamDesign®25, Springmoor House, is a modern rustic farmhouse and courtyard-style home. A semi-detached guest suite (which can also be used as a studio, office, pool house or other function) with separate entrance is the front of the house adjacent to a gated entry. In the courtyard, a pool and spa create a private retreat. The main house is approximately 2500 SF and includes four bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. The design centerpiece is the two-story great room with asymmetrical stone fireplace and wrap-around staircase and balcony. A modern open-concept kitchen with large island and Thermador appliances is open to both great and dining rooms. The first-floor master suite is serene and modern with vaulted ceilings, floating vanity and open shower.

Only a few minutes from the project to the Right (Another Minnetonka Finished Basement) this space was just as cluttered, dark, and underutilized. Done in tandem with Landmark Remodeling, this space had a specific aesthetic: to be warm, with stained cabinetry, a gas fireplace, and a wet bar. They also have a musically inclined son who needed a place for his drums and piano. We had ample space to accommodate everything they wanted. We decided to move the existing laundry to another location, which allowed for a true bar space and two-fold, a dedicated laundry room with folding counter and utility closets. The existing bathroom was one of the scariest we've seen, but we knew we could save it. Overall the space was a huge transformation! Photographer- Height Advantages

Das richtige Bild zu finden ist zumeist einfacher als es gekonnt in Szene zu setzen. Der Bilderrahmen aus dem Hause Moebe macht es einem in dieser Hinsicht aber sehr einfach, ganz nach dem Motto des Designlabels aus Kopenhagen “keep things simple”. Bestehend aus zwei Plexiglasplatten und vier filigranen Leisten aus hellem Eichenholz überzeugt FRAME mit Einfachheit und Übersichtlichkeit. Die einzelnen Elemente zusammensteckend, komplettiert diese ein schwarzes, den gesamten Rahmen umlaufendes Gummiband, welches gleichzeitig als Aufhängung dient. Einen stärkeren Kontrast bietet FRAME mit direkten Vergleich zur Ausführung aus Holz mit schwarzen Rahmenteilen aus Alumnium. Dem eigenen Ausstellungsstück kommt der zurückhaltende Charakter FRAMEs in jedem Fall zugute. Ob ein Bild, getrocknete, florale Elemente oder andere flache Kunstwerke das Innere des Holzrahmens zieren, ist der eigenen Fantasie überlassen. Die freie, unberührte und zudem durchsichtige Glasfläche lädt von Beginn zum eigenen kreativen Schaffen ein. Erhältlich in vier verschiedenen Größen, entsprechen die angegebenen Maße des Bilderrahmens den jeweiligen DIN-Formaten A2, A3, A4 und A5. Für eine Präsentation im Stil eines Passepartouts ist ein Bild mit geringeren Abmaßen zu wählen. Im Bilderrahmenformat A4 eignet sich beispielsweise ein A5 Print, eine Postkarte ziert den kleinsten der angebotenen Rahmen FRAME. Besonders reizend ist dabei die bestehende transparente Freifläche, die dem Ausstellungsstück zusätzlichen Raum gibt und einen nahezu schwebenden Charakter verleiht. Mittels des beiliegendes Bandes leicht an der Wand zu befestigen, überzeugt das Designerstück von Moebe zweifelsfrei in puncto Design, Funktionalität und Individualität - eine wahre Bereicherung für das eigene Zuhause.

With a family of 5, along with extended family; adding enough seating for a cozy arrangement was a must. This beautiful large sectional sofa and light teal chair were stain guarded to help with the wear and tear of the kiddos and adding a leather ottoman with storage was needed. A plush wool rug and gorgeous twelve-foot stationary curtains created a comfortable, relaxing space for the whole family and then some.

The Renovation of this home held a host of issues to resolve. The original fireplace was awkward and the ceiling was very complex. The original fireplace concept was designed to use a 3-sided fireplace to divide two rooms which became the focal point of the Great Room. For this particular floor plan since the Great Room was open to the rest of the main floor a sectional was the perfect choice to ground the space. It did just that! Although it is an open concept the floor plan creates a comfortable cozy space. Photography by Carlson Productions, LLC
