This project was a classic example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Starting with a design by Lori Stephens of Broadleaf Architecture, a true collaboration took place. The homeowners, W.L. Construction, Wendy Beck-Nichols of Corvallis Floor Covering, and Rob Bloom of Premier Electric worked together to wonderfully transform this living room.
We:
- added six operable skylights with electric shades
- completely reworked the stair system
- installed new wood flooring and trim along with a new gas fireplace
- covered the old brick with eye-popping Carrera Marble
Finally, new wall colors and five new layers of lighting brought it all together. Art, entertaining and quiet contemplation — all important aspects of our clients’ lives — were enhanced.
Upon completion everyone involved had the sense of fulfillment that comes from an “egoless” melding of ideas. Of course, the steady flow of cookies for the crew were a great help!
