Traditional Kitchen / Family Room & Bath / Master Bedroom Suite:  Brookline, MA

This Kitchen was renovated and expanded with old porch transformed to a breakfast area to create a light and spacious family space. We also redesigned the Master bedroom and its expanded bath. Throughout we used traditional details to match with the house and enhance its elegance.

Interior Architecture Design:  Cambridge, MA

The challenge in  this interior architecture design was to make these small rooms feel more spacious. We took space from the attic to create a hip ceiling in the master bedroom. Light from a light well with a skylight brightens a very tight dressing room. This light is reflected in mirrored doors and makes this tiny space feel more roomy. At night this space is brightened with light fixtures concealed in a trove in the light well.

House Floor Plan:  Medfield, MA Home addition and home remodeling

Bathroom Renovation:  Cambridge, MA  

Renovation to bathroom (before picture left). Minimalist detail, granite tile, glass doors  and a sink sculpture transformed this to an elegant bathroom.

Stairs:  Arlington, Massachusetts

   The second floor addition to this house had to be connected to very disconnected existing parts of the house. The play full arrangement of the stairs direct you to the kitchen and dining room off the stair landing from both the first floor living room and the new second floor rooms. Spacious rooms are created by bringing the ceiling to the underside of the roof and by using lofts over service space to visually increase the size of the spaces. The height of the rooms allow to take advantage of solar energy with solar siphon panels.
