Sarah and Todd’s nine-year old home has taken a beating from their two boys’ indoor slapshots and line drives. The house’s builder-basic finishes aren’t holding up, the main floor lacks storage, and the boys need a hangout space of their own. We were determined to create a beautiful and functional house that was less hockey rink and more Forever Home.

Before & After

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

A QUIET PLACE

This sports-obsessed family was lacking storage space for all their equipment, so we looked high and low—and found it under the stairs! We busted into the wall and finished out a space with shelving, baskets and even a chair in case one of the boys wanted to hang out and read. (We’re pretty sure it’s too small for batting practice.)

MODERN TRADITIONS

Sarah and Todd have an eye for traditional design, so we wanted to bring in some of those elements into their new-build home. The living room feature wall gave us just that opportunity, with warm brick and shiplap that define the space and gives everyone a focal point for get-togethers.

BUILT TO TAKE A LICKING

The kids aren’t going to get any less rambunctious as teenagers, so we went with a plank-style porcelain, which can look like hardwoods with the right installation. Dark shaker cabinets, light wooden countertops and Edison lighting give the home the rustic feel Sarah and Todd want with the durability they’ll need.
