This charming Craftsman classic style home has a large inviting front porch, original architectural details and woodwork throughout. The original two-story 1,963 sq foot home was built in 1912 with 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Our design build project added 700 sq feet to the home and 1,050 sq feet to the outdoor living space. This outdoor living space included a roof top deck and a 2 story lower deck all made of Ipe decking and traditional custom designed railings. In the formal dining room, our master craftsman restored and rebuilt the trim, wainscoting, beamed ceilings, and the built-in hutch. The quaint kitchen was brought back to life with new cabinetry made from douglas fir and also upgraded with a brand new bathroom and laundry room. Throughout the home we replaced the windows with energy effecient double pane windows and new hardwood floors that also provide radiant heating. It is evident that attention to detail was a primary focus during this project as our team worked diligently to maintain the traditional look and feel of the home

Our major goal was to have the ‘kitchen addition’, keep the authentic Spanish Revival style in this 1929 home.


Basalt blue-gray stone tiles meet engineered walnut flooring at the transition from Kitchen to Dining space. Two large islands provide work space and informal eating/bar areas. The island in the foreground is handy to the patio and barbeque.


Clients’ Design Objectives:
To restore the home, designed by John Howe, chief draftsman for Frank Lloyd Wright, to its original integrity. The kitchen had been remodeled in the 80’s and was an eyesore.
Challenges:
To maintain the existing footprint of the room, bring in more light, and maintain the mahogany light valance band that encircles all the rooms
Solutions:
We began by removing the texture from the ceilings, the sheetrock from the beams, and adding mahogany veneer to the trusses which frame the clerestory windows. Mahogany cabinets were installed to match the wood throughout the home. Honed black granite countertops and a glass mosaic backsplash added a feeling of warmth and elegance.
Lighting under the new cabinets on the brick wall and the extension of up-lighting over the sink wall cabinetry brightened up the room. We added illuminated floating shelves similar to ones built by Howe and Wright. To maintain the line of the valance band we used a Subzero, chiseling out ½” of tile so we were able to drop it in place, perfectly aligning it with the band.
The homeowner loves cooking and eating in the new kitchen. “It feels like it belongs in the house and we think John Howe would have loved it.”


This project was a long labor of love. The clients adored this eclectic farm home from the moment they first opened the front door. They knew immediately as well that they would be making many careful changes to honor the integrity of its old architecture. The original part of the home is a log cabin built in the 1700’s. Several additions had been added over time. The dark, inefficient kitchen that was in place would not serve their lifestyle of entertaining and love of cooking well at all. Their wish list included large pro style appliances, lots of visible storage for collections of plates, silverware, and cookware, and a magazine-worthy end result in terms of aesthetics. After over two years into the design process with a wonderful plan in hand, construction began. Contractors experienced in historic preservation were an important part of the project. Local artisans were chosen for their expertise in metal work for one-of-a-kind pieces designed for this kitchen – pot rack, base for the antique butcher block, freestanding shelves, and wall shelves. Floor tile was hand chipped for an aged effect. Old barn wood planks and beams were used to create the ceiling. Local furniture makers were selected for their abilities to hand plane and hand finish custom antique reproduction pieces that became the island and armoire pantry. An additional cabinetry company manufactured the transitional style perimeter cabinetry. Three different edge details grace the thick marble tops which had to be scribed carefully to the stone wall. Cable lighting and lamps made from old concrete pillars were incorporated. The restored stone wall serves as a magnificent backdrop for the eye- catching hood and 60” range. Extra dishwasher and refrigerator drawers, an extra-large fireclay apron sink along with many accessories enhance the functionality of this two cook kitchen. The fabulous style and fun-loving personalities of the clients shine through in this wonderful kitchen. If you don’t believe us, “swing” through sometime and see for yourself!
