Extreme Transformation-Traditional to Minimalist Modern

Our client wanted a unique, modern space. The biggest challenge was redesigning the fireplace. It was out of proportion in relation to the ceiling height (22') and the built-in cabinets were outdated and dwarfed the firebox. We came up with a design to integrate both the staircase and fireplace that added soft geometric form and unity to the large great room. The artwork above the fireplace was painted by our principal designer to compliment the room without competing with the design.

    Great design! I can see that it was a lot of work, but the end result is great! I have a similar wall that I need to address.

    Thank you! Yes, it took awhile to get away from making both sides the same. Lots of "fail" sketches. In the end I got out some foam core and started building a model. Worked great, kind of like a puzzle. Good luck, and don't be afraid of asymmetry!

    Thanks! I am going for asymmetry as well..don't like things are too matchy matchy or that are found everywhere. You did an amazing job and very creative!

    Fantastic--did you do any work on the exterior of the house as well?

    Thanks Studio S Squared. Due to subdivision constraints, there was only some landscaping done in the front of the house. It is funny, when people walk into the space they expect traditional due to the front exterior. It kind of lends to the dramatic effect of the interior. We did, however, redesign the back patio/pool area in the rear of the home. The photo shoot has not happened yet as we are waiting for the trees to bloom etc. We should have them up in the next couple of months so follow us! Very excited about that transformation as well. Thank you again!

    This is the front before the landscaping was revamped. There were some very overgrown holly trees which are gone now, but you get the idea of the interior/exterior contrast.
