Completed: January 2010

Architect: Alterstudio

Landscape: Mark Word Design

This was a renovation of a 1950’s home that incorporated a new kitchen with breakfast nook, living room, powder bath, and dining room. The floors were replaced with a honed lueders limestone, which was matched to the new hardscape installed by Mark Word Design. The painted cabinets were finished with a conversion varnish and the central core of the kitchen is comprised of vertical tapered walnut slats, which form the enclosures for the refrigerator, ovens and pantry as well as other walnut cabinets.  A built in seating area with walnut table are also featured. The countertops are Ceasarstone as is the material used in the integral sink in the powder bath. Custom siding and doors made of cypress give the project a muted texture. The entry door is a custom pivot door with partially obscured glass.  Mark Word Design added terracing and steps for the approaches that use both leuders stone and steel to form the steps and terraces. A floating deck of Angelium extends off the master bedroom.
