Today's Kitchen is the new Family Room
Parents cook and clean on expansive counters while kids do homework, play games, and read books at the over-sized island. A breakfast nook offers quiet reading and puzzle space with sunlight pouring through south and west windows. The kitchen opens up to the dining room to create a seamless family cooking and eating space.
Details include raised panel dark gray cabinets with white marble quartz at the islands and light gray shaker panel cabinets with leather-finish granite countertop at the perimeter counter. Organic-shaped waterjet-cut slate tile is featured as an accent wall from counter to ceiling. Large windows invite light and air into space as custom window sills conceal hidden outlets below.

LOFT + WORKSHOP
A couple's love for the American sports car helped redefine the traditional idea of the "GARAGE." The main level of this newly constructed space holds five vehicles, with lifts for stacked cars in the left and right bays. Drive around to the back and underneath for an onsite mechanic's workshop, walk up the spiral staircase and sit down for a cocktail and cigar while admiring these American-made beauties from above, in the loft space.

Sherman Lake House
Work at the Sherman lake house is progressing nicely! Photos of the recently framed Great Room show the rough openings for the 9-foot tall x 14 foot wide doors to the lake on the left, with oversize windows with transoms on either side of the fireplace and along the courtyard wall. Black steel tie-rods offer tensile strength to the open roof design as they add to the black-detail concept. Windows go in this week and next!

The main level facing the street is a one-story home belies the home’s three stories that step down the hillside toward the water’s edge. A cathedral ceiling caps a great room with living, dining, and kitchen areas with exposed trusses and tension cable-rods.
Four generously-proportioned guest bedrooms on the middle level each feature large windows for a lake view as well as generous closets and en-suite facilities. A family room walks out to a mid-height roof terrace. The walk-out lowest level hosts a fitness suite and a games room with a bar and kitchenette for service to the future swimming pool.

Social Hall
Saint Gregory the Great
The striking architectural style of the 1980’s church called for a uniquely creative architectural language for a proposed addition. Where the curves and movement of the existing church recall LeCorbusier’s Ronchamp Chapel, the addition offers a geometric and orthogonal contrast. This design approach references the simple rectangular tower addition to Frank Lloyd Wright’s strong spiral form at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. A series of simple masses step out to accommodate offices and a social hall.
