A great room with little character and limited connection to the kitchen gains openness and personality. Built-in bookcases and window seats in the living room create a focal point and needed storage for the family. New cabinets and craftsman style columns distinguish the dining room from the living space without disrupting the open concept. Removing a wall opens the kitchen to the rest of the living space. Spicy Orange walls add warmth and complement the cool blue furniture in the living room. Photo: Pete Eckert

The kitchen isn't the only room worthy of delicious design... and so when these clients saw THEIR personal style come to life in the kitchen, they decided to go all in and put the Maine Coast construction team in charge of building out their vision for the home in its entirety. Talent at its best -- with tastes of this client, we simply had the privilege of doing the easy part -- building their dream home!

Large windows bring the outside in to this lovely dining space.

The flow of space throughout is defined by the subtle collision of angled geometries creating informal, individual living spaces oriented to particular views of the landscape. photos by Chris Kendall

View from cooktop toward north showing Richardson Bay and Mount Tam off to the left. Original plan had a wall (running behind sofa) dividing DIning Room from Living Room. Exterior deck was in disrepair so it was rebuilt with new PT joists, ipe surface and cable railing. All windows in north wall raised to 8' headers. New sliding doors at each end of Great Room allow in-and-out circulation when entertaining.

The power of symmetry and simple forms are revealed in this charming dining room. A light sconce must be chosen and placed like another piece of art. The simple wood table is comfortable within these refined surroundings.
