Hunter

February 19, 2018 in by Dean Berlon

The house is a modern version of an arts-and-crafts inspired home, complete with inset front porch, paneled gable ends, dormers, simple box brackets and paneled overhangs. To flood the interior with light, we used oversized casement windows. The casement’s slim frame maximizes the amount of glass in each sash and provides full ventilation when opened. We Read More >

Mid-Century

September 19, 2018 in by Dean Berlon

The basic footprint of the house remained the same. We kept most of the original foundation but expanded ceiling heights from 7’-10” on the old first floor to 9’-0” on the new first and second floors. The double height living room and kitchen are open to each other to become the main gathering space of Read More >

Urban Oasis

February 21, 2018 in by Dean Berlon

The house sits between the historic neighborhood and former industrial buildings. We took inspiration from both areas, using metal siding, dark brick, bays and porches, updating it with new colors and modern siding patterns. We used a textured concrete pool deck and carried that into the pool room to make the transition between inside and Read More >

Riverside

January 14, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

Stone walls, slate roofs and other exterior elements were carefully selected to replicate the details on the original house. An arbor was added to the front of the original garage to bring in color and focus attention on the main house. The new resistance pool has a copper-roofed bay and a custom skylight incorporated into Read More >

Second Avenue

January 14, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

The carriage house has an overhead door to the backyard so it can be opened and used as more entertaining/serving space. The living room and master bedroom on the second floor open completely to the pool with french doors and balconies. A saltwater pool was installed rather than a chlorine pool because it uses less chemicals. Read More >

Gothic Cottage

January 7, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

Each of the four wood exterior doors displays a different vintage pattern, progressing from the formal, half-light front door to the more relaxed, full-light patio door in the rear. We also used divided lite windows and half round gutters – all in the 19th century tradition. We doubled space in the house by adding a Read More >

Fourth Avenue Porch

February 16, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

To take advantage of views of the park at the end of the street, we incorporated a new second-story balcony into the design. The balcony is directly off the master bedroom. We replaced all of the windows with new larger windows, added a door to the second floor balcony and custom built a new mahogany Read More >

Carriage House

January 8, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

The living space inside the carriage house is perched above a three bay garage and feels like a tree house. There are windows on all four elevations so the light is always changing and accenting the volume of the architecture. Our new carriage house sits next to an old red garage. We wanted to keep Read More >

Hamlet

February 3, 2015 in by Dean Berlon

The result is a home that stands out for its detailing and not for its new construction. Read More >

Briggsdale

January 20, 2016 in by Dean Berlon

"The Architects designed the building with the rich rural and farming background in mind. The building concept was to evoke the well-built stone and timber dairy barns that dot the landscape while using environmentally-friendly modern materials.” Read More >
