The clients bought a new construction house in Bay Head, NJ with an architectural style that was very traditional and quite formal, not beachy. For our design process I created the story that the house was owned by a successful ship captain who had traveled the world and brought back furniture and artifacts for his home. The furniture choices were mainly based on English style pieces and then we incorporated a lot of accessories from Asia and Africa. The only nod we really made to “beachy” style was to do some art with beach scenes and/or bathing beauties (original painting in the study) (vintage series of black and white photos of 1940’s bathing scenes, not shown) ,the pillow fabric in the family room has pictures of fish on it , the wallpaper in the study is actually sand dollars and we did a seagull wallpaper in the downstairs bath (not shown).

Clients wanted to create a large open space that their entire family could come and enjoy all together as their existing bungalow was not large enough to host everyone comfortably. Since they had a very large backyard backing onto a green space, the decision was made to expand the home into the back by adding a large 900 sq ft addition with basement. The existing kitchen and dining room were re-configured into a larger back entry and formal dining room. The new addition provided a large open chef's custom kitchen with sizable pantry, plus an eating nook and family room surrounded by large windows overlooking the backyard full of trees.

Changes in ceiling design can help to delineate spaces in large open-concept spaces. This coffered ceiling helps to separate the family room area from the kitchen by using a custom-built coffered ceiling. This custom home was designed and built by Meadowlark Design+Build in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Photography by Joshua Caldwell.

We renovated this fireplace and added stacked stone to the ceiling and a nice large mantel to give warmth. We also added all new furnishings included 2 long sideboards to fill the space and 2 coffee tables side by side for added greatness.

This was a total home remodel. The first floor of this home was completely gutted. The new owner wanted a first floor that was open and airy for entertaining with a few custom features. The living and dining room have a half wall with a built in stainless framed fireplace visible from both the dining area and the living room. The sitting room off the living area has a fieldstone fireplace as well as a custom bar, and the gallery style kitchen is visible from just about every corner of the first floor.

Willie & Leslie of Barrington Hills loved the location of their home. Its breathtaking views overlooked a wooded backyard and a captivating lake. They didn’t want to move, but they needed more space. But the house was missing that big family room where everyone could gather, relax and converse, and the house was completely cut off visually from the beautiful outdoor view right outside! They knew what they wanted meant building an addition to their home. They began searching the internet and came across Advance Design Studio, and after browsing through project after project and reading one outstanding client review after another, they were sold on Advance Design. Additionally, they loved Advance Design’s “Common Sense Remodeling” process and felt confident that it would allow the Design/Build company to easily coordinate the multiple projects they wanted to complete all at one time. Willie and Leslie immediately set up a meeting with Owner Todd Jurs and Project Designer Claudia Pop. When the meeting ended, they were sure that Advance Design were the right people and the right approach for their project. "Establishing a direction and a budget is always key in project of this size," Todd said. "This house was screaming for a family room and it didn't have one. Ultimately, it's about working together towards the same goal of a beautiful functional addition." The project consisted of a significant family room addition with an extraordinary vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling fireplace, a guest suite renovation with a luxury bath, a garage addition, and an adjoining outdoor patio renovation complete with a fantastic built in grilling station. The main goal was to add comfort and space to the existing home that would last their lifetime, and finally allow them to capture the amazing view of the backyard and lake that they never could really enjoy previously. Willie, Leslie and Claudia paid special attention to designing the space to make sure that the footprint of the room did not interfere with the views. Floor to ceiling Pella windows were incorporated into a spectacular window wall to provide plenty of natural light. Vaulted ceilings gave the room a bigger feel and the stunning floor to ceiling masonry fireplace was designed giving the room a rustic, comfortable feel of a Colorado Lodge. Barnwood doors and exposed wooden beams accentuate the crackling fireplace and family gathering space. An oversized statement chandelier bathes the space in soft light once the sun sets and compliments the exposed wood and fireplace perfectly. “It simple elegant and beautiful,” Designer Claudia Pop said. “It is a great family room that captures the views perfectly. They love the fireplace, the barndoors and the openness of the space we designed for the whole family now to enjoy.” And when warm weather beckons, the outdoor patio is a terrific place to spend an evening. The family now enjoys fall nights in front of their outdoor fireplace overlooking the quiet lake. Dekton Trillium Quartz counters tops adorn an amazing grilling bar. Nearly indestructible, they are the only manufactured stone product designed exclusively to withstand high heat in summer and extreme cold temperatures in winter. The guest bath renovation makes Willie and Leslie’s friends and family feel like they are staying at a 5-star hotel. Carlisle colored Maple cabinets from Medallion make a roomy dual vanity more than adequate with plenty of space to get ready for the day after a peaceful night’s sleep. Cambria Quartz countertops are durable and elegant, while contrasting the neutral cabinets flawlessly. Heated flooring from Warmly Yours is the cherry on top for this cozy guest bath. All the projects turned out better than they even imagined. Willie and Leslie now have a spacious family room with even better views of the lake and woods, a much larger garage, a fantastic relaxing outdoor patio, and a guest bath that makes it almost impossible to get the guest to leave after their stay.

Our client wanted a comfy but stylish gathering space off the kitchen. One of their favorite places to visit was Africa. They get to recall their amazing trip every day with the oversized gallery wall. A sectional and chairs create a cozy place to read or watch tv. The oval shaped ottoman is easy to move around without any hard corners and the orange chairs swivel for good tv viewing. Beautiful swirled blue lamps shimmer in the natural light. A little play on theme with the animal patterned area rug.

A continuation from the kitchen is the family room. The fireplace mantel and built-in's are in the same white paint from Dura Supreme cabinetry. The tile surround is subway tile of Calacatta marble. Decorative panels all around the fireplace wall create a beautiful seamless design to tie into the kitchen.

Originally this space had low and flat ceilings that were barely over 7' in height. Opening up and creating a "rib cage" to hold up the roof, was the perfect plan to get this ceiling elevated. Leaving the new support beams exposed is the icing on the cake to this living room design.
