Architectural New Construction: New Construction Project 1 Total Design Source designed this riverside home for a couple that wanted a "small house that would live big." With many constraints imposed by the site conditions, the Department of Environmental Protection and the local Building Department, the challenges were great. The structure was built on pilings to meet the FIMA elevation codes then the grade was raised around it. The home has three levels with a Windows Walk at the very top. The interior staircase was custom designed by Total Design Source and built on site by a local metal artisan. The marsh-like balusters are hand-forged iron with a copper hand rubbed finish and the railings are polished steel. Total Design Source designed custom kitchen cabinets using a wood veneer called Makore-Mottled as the inset panel and Mahogany stiles and rails. Custom base and crown moldings were used throughout and a custom solid Mahogany door and sidelights were designed for the entry. Almost complete, the owners are thrilled with the scale of the home, the varied rooflines and the open floor plans. |
