Weil Friedman ArchitectsWeil Friedman designed this small kitchen for a townhouse in the Carnegie Hill Historic District in New York City. A cozy window seat framed by bookshelves allows for expanded light and views. The entry is framed by a tall pantry on one side and a refrigerator on the other. The Lacanche stove and custom range hood sit between custom cabinets in Farrow and Ball Calamine with soapstone counters and aged brass hardware.

Vetter ArchitectsThe client’s request was quite common - a typical 2800 sf builder home with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, living space, and den. However, their desire was for this to be “anything but common.” The result is an innovative update on the production home for the modern era, and serves as a direct counterpoint to the neighborhood and its more conventional suburban housing stock, which focus views to the backyard and seeks to nullify the unique qualities and challenges of topography and the natural environment.
The Terraced House cautiously steps down the site’s steep topography, resulting in a more nuanced approach to site development than cutting and filling that is so common in the builder homes of the area. The compact house opens up in very focused views that capture the natural wooded setting, while masking the sounds and views of the directly adjacent roadway. The main living spaces face this major roadway, effectively flipping the typical orientation of a suburban home, and the main entrance pulls visitors up to the second floor and halfway through the site, providing a sense of procession and privacy absent in the typical suburban home.
Clad in a custom rain screen that reflects the wood of the surrounding landscape - while providing a glimpse into the interior tones that are used. The stepping “wood boxes” rest on a series of concrete walls that organize the site, retain the earth, and - in conjunction with the wood veneer panels - provide a subtle organic texture to the composition.
The interior spaces wrap around an interior knuckle that houses public zones and vertical circulation - allowing more private spaces to exist at the edges of the building. The windows get larger and more frequent as they ascend the building, culminating in the upstairs bedrooms that occupy the site like a tree house - giving views in all directions.
The Terraced House imports urban qualities to the suburban neighborhood and seeks to elevate the typical approach to production home construction, while being more in tune with modern family living patterns.

EP Architects LtdEP Architects, were recommended by a previous client to provide architectural services to design a single storey side extension and internal alterations to this 1960’s private semi-detached house.
The brief was to design a modern flat roofed, highly glazed extension to allow views over a well maintained garden. Due to the sloping nature of the site the extension sits into the lawn to the north of the site and opens out to a patio to the west. The clients were very involved at an early stage by providing mood boards and also in the choice of external materials and the look that they wanted to create in their project, which was welcomed.
A large flat roof light provides light over a large dining space, in addition to the large sliding patio doors. Internally, the existing dining room was divided to provide a large utility room and cloakroom, accessed from the kitchen and providing rear access to the garden and garage.
The extension is quite different to the original house, yet compliments it, with its simplicity and strong detailing.
HaiJoe Stamped Concrete Patios and DecksWe did a stamped concrete patio and added a wood burning firepit, seating wall and 4 LED lights. The lights are an amazing touch to make the patios really pop.
Braun Building CenterThis lower level kitchenette/wet bar was designed with Mid Continent Cabinetry’s Vista line. A shaker Yorkshire door style was chosen in HDF (High Density Fiberboard) finished in a trendy Brizo Blue paint color. Vista Cabinetry is full access, frameless cabinetry built for more usable storage space.
The mix of soft, gold tone hardware accents, bold paint color and lots of decorative touches combine to create a wonderful, custom cabinetry look filled with tons of character.
