Amazing Spaces
This very busy family of five needed a convenient place to drop coats, shoes and bookbags near the active side entrance of their home. Creating a mudroom space was an essential part of a larger renovation project we were hired to design which included a kitchen, family room, butler’s pantry, home office, laundry room, and powder room. These additional spaces, including the new mudroom, did not exist previously and were created from the home’s existing square footage.
The location of the mudroom provides convenient access from the entry door and creates a roomy hallway that allows an easy transition between the family room and laundry room. This space also is used to access the back staircase leading to the second floor addition which includes a bedroom, full bath, and a second office.
The color pallet features peaceful shades of blue-greys and neutrals accented with textural storage baskets. On one side of the hallway floor-to-ceiling cabinetry provides an abundance of vital closed storage, while the other side features a traditional mudroom design with coat hooks, open cubbies, shoe storage and a long bench. The cubbies above and below the bench were specifically designed to accommodate baskets to make storage accessible and tidy. The stained wood bench seat adds warmth and contrast to the blue-grey paint. The desk area at the end closest to the door provides a charging station for mobile devices and serves as a handy landing spot for mail and keys. The open area under the desktop is perfect for the dog bowls.

Dramatic foyer with wood stairway leading to second floor. The staircase and two story entry have been finished with white walls and molding for a grand and memorable foyer. Linfield Design placed modern contrasting art in blues and grays above the staircase to add interest and color. A simple glass console table is located at the foot of the stairs with candle holders and a modern sculpture accessory. From the foyer you enter the living room through a large expansive archway that also adds to the dramatic feel of the entryway. These molding and trim finished are an fairly inexpensive way to upgrade a foyer and give your home a grand entrance.
