Located in the city’s Richmond neighborhood, the EDDIE house is a newly renovated and expanded Edwardian era home completed in May 2011. EDDIE is an updated and contemporary version of Edward, retaining the scale and solid bones of the existing home, yet mixing surprising new materials, forms, and sustainable features to reflect our modern times. The project consisted of a complete remodel of the interior as well as a three- story, 1,100 sq ft addition to the back of the property. The structure was seismically upgraded and the new ground floor concrete with radiant heating was polished minimally to create a unique finished floor. EDDIE’s backyard contains an urban garden.

This Manhattan Upper East side apartment renovation introduces memories of California into a New York setting for clients who embrace the Big Apple lifestyle but didn’t want to give up their Marin County, California comforts. The carved out ceilings and walls add a new dimension to the space; while the blond color woods and curved shapes bring memories of a calmer life. The overall result of the apartment design is a fun, warm and relaxing refuge from their current, higher energy lives. Photography: Charles Callister Jr.
