Inside, the layout is organized by a bookshelf-clad interior volume that houses the TV watching area separating the living space at the front from the kitchen and dining spaces at the back. The volume, which is painted entirely in a Tiffany blue, also defines a zone for the powder room and coat closet. The dropped ceiling conceals the minisplit air conditioner units
The kitchen is finished in a gray, white and blue palette. A blue and white patterned cement tile backsplash and white upper cabinets contrast with all-gray lower cabinets and countertops. White oak is used throughout the house in the flooring, windows, shelf details, and the stair handrail.
Large windows open out onto a rear deck and yard at the back. A pass-through window allows for easy serving from the kitchen to the outside. The powder room picks up the blue again with more cement tile and blue penny tile on the walls.
Upstairs, the three children’s bedrooms, located in front, are finished in saturated hues. An interconnecting door allows the twin daughters access to each other’s rooms. Bird wallpaper on the ceiling distinguishes the youngest child’s bedroom. The children’s bath is all blue and white. At the back, the master suite is painted in paler tones, including a gray, marble and green bathroom.
Downstairs, a saturated yellow feature wall brightens up the home office. A reclaimed wood barn door separates this level from upstairs. At the back, a glass door connects the lower level family room to the rear yard.
