Balance and Geometry

A modern yet dated suburban ranch got a major facelift to create this stylish home with smart curb appeal for clients Keith and Annabeth. The corner window grouping, which was formerly a detracting feature, becomes an aesthetic highlight when given a new look and paired with matching cedar beams, window boxes and a new door.

Stylishly Simple

Joanna was able to integrate the rustic with the modern to create a look that worked as a unified whole. At the front of the home, the interior and exterior were tied together visually by wrapping both the window dividers and wood beams (inside and out) with unpainted cedar.

Entry Reconfigured

A structural issue with the front entrance presented a challenge for both Chip and Joanna, but the result was a newly redesigned foyer that went beyond original expectations.

Kitchen Innovation

The kitchen was not only expanded and integrated into a more open floor plan, but became the visual focal point of the renovation with its blend of modern and rustic motifs.
