Complete overhaul of the common area in this wonderful Arcadia home. The living room, dining room and kitchen were redone. The direction was to obtain a contemporary look but to preserve the warmth of a ranch home. The perfect combination of modern colors such as grays and whites blend and work perfectly together with the abundant amount of wood tones in this design. The open kitchen is separated from the dining area with a large 10' peninsula with a waterfall finish detail. Notice the 3 different cabinet colors, the white of the upper cabinets, the Ash gray for the base cabinets and the magnificent olive of the peninsula are proof that you don't have to be afraid of using more than 1 color in your kitchen cabinets. The kitchen layout includes a secondary sink and a secondary dishwasher! For the busy life style of a modern family. The fireplace was completely redone with classic materials but in a contemporary layout. Notice the porcelain slab material on the hearth of the fireplace, the subway tile layout is a modern aligned pattern and the comfortable sitting nook on the side facing the large windows so you can enjoy a good book with a bright view. The bamboo flooring is continues throughout the house for a combining effect, tying together all the different spaces of the house. All the finish details and hardware are honed gold finish, gold tones compliment the wooden materials perfectly.

This new project is a sustainable flats concept for Philadelphia. Two single homes in disrepair were removed and replaced with three single-level, house-sized flats that are ideal for entertaining or families. Getting light deep into the space was the central design challenge for this green project and resulted in an open floor-plan as well as an interior courtyard that runs vertically through the core of the property. Making the most of this urban lot, on-site parking and private outdoor spaces were integrated into the rear of the units; secure bike storage is located in the courtyard, with additional unit storage in the basement.

The living room area of this loft features a modern fireplace with hidden shelving at the sides.
