ABOVETOP LEFT: When we worked with a young family in the Nashville suburb of Hendersonville, it was important to maintain the integrity of their midcentury modern
home. This bonus room had a fire box, so we kept that idea and used the in-wall wood as a design element. The natural touch adds to the comfort of the space.
ABOVE TOP RIGHT: Set on historic Belmont Boulevard, this 1908 four-square home is as beautiful as it is fun. Because two young boys live here, we wanted them to feel
welcome in every room—no space is off-limits. You'll notice the hopscotch rug, floor poofs, and wood floors that are ideal for skating and racing cars. The dining table was
designed to take marks and scratches, blending them in to add to its patina.

ABOVE BOTTOM: This hip 1920s house in the 12 South neighborhood was bought by a young professional couple. We added about 2,800 square feet and made sure the
family room suited them and their beloved dogs. We used a custom modular sofa and custom-built cabinets that conceal two large televisions—ideal for a couple who
loves gaming and entertainment. An original painting f rom local artist Trevor and porcelain Daltile surround the fireplace.
