This project is the 2nd house Belz has done for these clients. The clients were down-sizing and wanted a 1-story home with a mid-century modern feel. The intent of the project was to create a low-maintenance home, so Belz chose materials accordingly.

 

An open floor plan was created for the main space which included the kitchen, dining, and living room areas all combined. The wife, a professional chef, provided considerable input into the kitchen design. The primary suite was purposely separated from the other bedrooms. One of the additional bedrooms could function as the owner’s art/music studio.

 

The clients collected art and wanted a lot of wall space for their collection. However, they also wanted a lot of natural light. The solution was to add high clerestory windows all around the Great Room.
