A desire for a more modern and zen-like environment in a historical, turn of the century stone and stucco house was the drive and challenge for this sophisticated Siemasko + Verbridge Interiors project. Along with a fresh color palette, new furniture is woven with antiques, books, and artwork to enliven the space. Carefully selected finishes enhance the openness of the glass pool structure, without competing with the grand ocean views. Thoughtfully designed cabinetry and family friendly furnishings, including a kitchenette, billiard area, and home theater, were designed for both kids and adults.

This oak orangery with tiled mansard roof is the latest design from one of David Salisbury’s most creative sales designers, that has elicited a very positive review and testimonial. The quality of his design work is one of Dan Featherstone’s many strengths and this orangery, with its elegant proportions and symmetrical design, is another good example. As our customer noted: “Dan was a highly creative and skilled designer and created a concept that was complementary to our home and we just knew it was the right thing for us.” The new orangery has transformed the rear of this period red brick property in East Yorkshire, creating a far more effective link with the garden with its large expanse of lawn. A pair of French Doors provide quick and convenient access to the outside. The overhead roof lantern helps bring in natural overhead light, perfect for reading the newspapers or a favourite book on the customer’s comfortable looking contemporary grey sofas. The additional space created means there’s room for recreation, as well as relaxation, with table football a popular family game. Our customer really helps tell the story of this project: “We moved into our dream home and we felt it lacked just something extra special so we decided some type of orangery would finish off our home. We spent many hours reviewing the market available and decided to contact David Salisbury to discuss the option of a new oak orangery. We had already spoken with many other companies but we soon realised that their attention to detail set them apart from the competition.” Whilst the initial design is obviously vital, the manufacturing and installation phases of this oak orangery (like any building project) were just as important. “The installation process went extremely smoothly and we had regular communication from the David Salisbury project management team throughout - they answered all questions immediately,” the customer noted. Regular communication is important in managing a customer’s expectation so it is always gratifying to read of feedback like this. This is the latest successful oak orangery in what is now a significant area of growth for David Salisbury. It feels only right to leave the last word to our customer: “The finished product is even better than we could have imagined and really has made a fantastic space that is enjoyed by the whole family. If you are considering an orangery extension for your home, we would happily recommend David Salisbury without hesitation.”

This project was such an incredible design opportunity, and instilled inspiration and excitement at every turn! Our amazing clients came to us with the challenge of converting their beloved family home into a welcoming haven for all members of the family. At the time that we met our clients, they were struggling with the difficult personal decision of the fate of the home. Their father/father-in-law had passed away and their mother/mother-in-law had recently been admitted into a nursing facility and was fighting Alzheimer’s. Resistant to loss of the home now that both parents were out of it, our clients purchased the home to keep in in the family. Despite their permanent home currently being in New Jersey, these clients dedicated themselves to keeping and revitalizing the house. We were moved by the story and became immediately passionate about bringing this dream to life. The home was built by the parents of our clients and was only ever owned by them, making this a truly special space to the family. Our goal was to revitalize the home and to bring new energy into every room without losing the special characteristics that were original to the home when it was built. In this way, we were able to develop a house that maintains its own unique personality while offering a space of welcoming neutrality for all members of the family to enjoy over time. The renovation touched every part of the home: the exterior, foyer, kitchen, living room, sun room, garage, six bedrooms, three bathrooms, the laundry room, and everything in between. The focus was to develop a style that carried consistently from space to space, but allowed for unique expression in the small details in every room. Starting at the entry, we renovated the front door and entry point to offer more presence and to bring more of the mid-century vibe to the home’s exterior. We integrated a new modern front door, cedar shingle accents, new exterior paint, and gorgeous contemporary house numbers that really allow the home to stand out. Just inside the entry, we renovated the foyer to create a playful entry point worthy of attention. Cement look tile adorns the foyer floor, and we’ve added new lighting and upgraded the entry coat storage. Upon entering the home, one will immediately be captivated by the stunning kitchen just off the entry. We transformed this space in just about every way. While the footprint of the home ultimately remained almost identical, the aesthetics were completely turned on their head. We re-worked the kitchen to maximize storage and to create an informal dining area that is great for casual hosting or morning coffee. We removed the entry to the garage that was once in the informal dining, and created a peninsula in its place that offers a unique division between the kitchen/informal dining and the formal dining and living areas. The simple light warm light gray cabinetry offers a bit of traditional elegance, along with the marble backsplash and quartz countertops. We extended the original wood flooring into the kitchen and stained all floors to match for a warmth that truly resonates through all spaces. We upgraded appliances, added lighting everywhere, and finished the space with some gorgeous mid century furniture pieces. In the formal dining and living room, we really focused on maintaining the original marble fireplace as a focal point. We cleaned the marble, repaired the mortar, and refinished the original fireplace screen to give a new sleek look in black. We then integrated a new gas insert for modern heating and painted the upper portion in a rich navy blue; an accent that is carried through the home consistently as a nod to our client’s love of the color. The former entry into the old covered porch is now an elegant glass door leading to a stunning finished sunroom. This room was completely upgraded as well. We wrapped the entire space in cozy white shiplap to keep a casual feel with brightness. We tiled the floor with large format concrete look tile, and painted the old brick fireplace a bright white. We installed a new gas burning unit, and integrated transitional style lighting to bring warmth and elegance into the space. The new black-frame windows are adorned with decorative shades that feature hand-sketched bird prints, and we’ve created a dedicated garden-ware “nook” for our client who loves to work in the yard. The far end of this space is completed with two oversized chaise loungers and overhead lights…the most perfect little reading nook! Just off the dining room, we created an entirely new space to the home: a mudroom. The clients lacked this space and desperately needed a landing spot upon entering the home from the garage. We uniquely planned existing space in the garage to utilize for this purpose, and were able to create a small but functional entry point without losing the ability to park cars in the garage. This new space features cement-look tile, gorgeous deep brown cabinetry, and plenty of storage for all the small items one might need to store while moving in and out of the home. The remainder of the upstairs level includes massive renovations to the guest hall bathroom and guest bedroom, upstairs master bed/bath suite, and a third bedroom that we converted into a home office for the client. Some of the largest transformations were made in the basement, where unfinished space and lack of light were converted into gloriously lit, cozy, finished spaces. Our first task was to convert the massive basement living room into the new master bedroom for our clients. We removed existing built-ins, created an entirely new walk-in closet, painted the old brick fireplace, installed a new gas unit, added carpet, introduced new lighting, replaced windows, and upgraded every part of the aesthetic appearance. One of the most incredible features of this space is the custom double sliding barn door made by a Denver artisan. This space is truly a retreat for our clients! We also completely transformed the laundry room, back storage room, basement master bathroom, and two bedrooms. This home’s massive scope and ever-evolving challenges were thrilling and exciting to work with, and the result is absolutely amazing. At the end of the day, this home offers a look and feel that the clients love. Above all, though, the clients feel the spirit of their family home and have a welcoming environment for all members of the family to enjoy for years to come.

An orangery kitchen extension continues to be one of our most popular design briefs and this project in Kent is another contemporary example which reflects the customer’s flawless taste in interiors. But it is the pairing of a David Salisbury orangery rounded off with a luxury bespoke kitchen from Tom Howley that creates this eye-catching combination. The orangery was expertly designed by David White, our Kent-based designer who has been a consistent top performer over quite a number of years. With his wide-ranging experience, you can be sure he will create designs that complement and enhance your home. Taking a cue from the architecture of the existing property, this orangery was designed with solid side walls and dwarf walls at the front in the same red brick as the rest of the home. It was painted in 'White' from our standard colour range. One side had an entirely solid wall to allow the installation of a large range cooker with a combination of base units and full height wall cupboards and cabinets. The opposite side had two large bottom opening casement windows, allowing in plenty of natural light – whilst the positioning of a glazed dresser unit from Tom Howley in between these windows created their typically symmetrical look.

This home is an oasis of calming color and sophisticated, transitional design. The kitchen has a dark wood floor with a farmhouse sink, white louvered cabinets, marble countertops, a white marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and an island. The great room and living room also have dark wood floors with white walls and comfortable furniture. The dining room and sunroom flaunt calming hues with a printed rug adding a dash of bright color. The master bedrooms and guest room showcase a green and yellow palette with luxe linen and furnishing, while the kid's room is a light green with comfy bunkbeds. The master bathroom has a yellow tile and stone tile limestone floor with white shaker cabinets, a one-piece toilet, beige walls, an undermount sink, and quartz countertops. --- Our interior design service area is all of New York City including the Upper East Side and Upper West Side, as well as the Hamptons, Scarsdale, Mamaroneck, Rye, Rye City, Edgemont, Harrison, Bronxville, and Greenwich CT.
