Accessible Split-Level Sanctuary

With growing teens and increasing mobility issues for their mom, this house was purchased solely for its 4,600sf and "good bones".  The terribly dated split-level house was gut down to the studs, with most of the interior walls on both levels removed entirely.  

The new layout has a sprawling 26' long Kitchen, with a 10' long island and plenty of space on all sides for future wheelchair maneuvering.  Large windows and the skylights provide ample daylight into the space, creating a bright and inviting space.  Open to the Dining and Living rooms, the Kitchen welcomes friends and family alike to the heart of the home. The new railing overlooks the massive entryway, which now serves as the open Mudroom.  The added volume ceilings in the main level increase airiness throughout. A new Bedroom was created off the Living room with views overlooking the back yard.  Down the hall from the Kitchen is the Owners' Suite, large Laundry room and Hall Bath, created from the previous space of 3 Bedrooms and 2 Baths.  The new Owners Suite has ample maneuverability, an expansive roll-in closet, and a beautiful bath with shower, private toilet room and dedicated make-up vanity. 

The lower level is home to a large Rec Room with fireplace, an Exercise room, 3 additional Bedrooms and Hall Bath, and ample storage and utility space - with walk-out access to the patio and back yard. 

The house now boasts 5 Bedrooms, 3 Baths, and sprawling living spaces on 2 levels.  Contemporary fixtures and furnishings as well as ample spacing make for a beautiful and accessible home.

The exterior of the home was updated with new siding, trim, windows and front doors. A new covered Porch and in-ground Pool will be added in Phase 2.

Contemporary Conversion

The brick ranch home had solid bones but hadn't been updated since it was built in 1969. The Kitchen, Living and Dining rooms were completely divided and awkwardly laid out. We opted to remove all the interior walls of the space to provide clear sightlines and flexible space for the expansive footprint. The entire home was updated with wood floors, stunning cabinets and impeccable finishes. The basement was finished as a large open space with Bed, Bath, Laundry, and new egress-compliant safety windows and wells.  An industrial vibe was created by painting the entire exposed basement ceiling space black. Photos by Owner.

Refined Rustic Kitchen & Exterior Refresh

This 1960s split-level home desperately needed a change - not bigger space, just better.  We removed the walls between the kitchen, living, and dining rooms to create a large open concept space that still allows a clear definition of space, while offering sight lines between spaces and functions.  Homeowners preferred an open U-shape kitchen rather than an island to keep kids out of the cooking area during meal-prep, while offering easy access to the refrigerator and pantry.  Green glass tile, granite countertops, shaker cabinets, and rustic reclaimed wood accents highlight the unique character of the home and family.  The mix of farmhouse, contemporary and industrial styles make this house their ideal home.

Outside, new lap siding with white trim, and an accent of shake shingles under the gable.  The new red door provides a much needed pop of color.  Landscaping was updated with a new brick paver and stone front stoop, walk, and landscaping wall.

Sleek Accessible Bath

These clients needed a first-floor shower for their medically-compromised children, so extended the existing powder room into the adjacent mudroom to gain space for the shower.  The 3/4 bath is fully accessible, and easy to clean - with a roll-in shower, wall-mounted toilet, and fully tiled floor, chair-rail and shower.  The  gray wall paint above the white subway tile is both contemporary and calming.  Multiple shower heads and wands in the 3'x6' shower provided ample access for assisting their children in the shower.  The white furniture-style vanity can be seen from the kitchen area, and ties in with the design style of the rest of the home.  The bath is both beautiful and functional.  We were honored and blessed to work on this project for our dear friends.

Remarkable Ranch Redesign

This 1,100sf 1957 traditional Post-WWII brick ranch was in great condition when purchased by this family with triplet teens, but desperately needed updates and more open space than the original plan allowed.  A total remodel of the interior, including an expansion of the kitchen, living and dining spaces, now accommodates large family gatherings.  The newly finished basement boasts 2 new bedrooms, a shared bath, and a great teen hangout space.

Beautiful Cape Cod Baths

This adorable Cape Cod house needed upgrading of its existing shared hall bath, and the addition of a new master bath.  Removing a wall in the bath revealed gorgeous brick, to be left exposed.  The existing master bedroom had a small reading nook that was perfect for the addition of a new bath - just barely large enough for a large shower, toilet, and double-sink vanities.  The clean lines, white shaker cabinets, white subway tile, and finished details make these 2 baths the star of this quaint home.

I’ve always dreamed of having a clean, modernist home, and I’m happy to say that Alice and her team at Atelier Cohen led the way to making that dream a reality! I couldn’t be more happy with the project, my house looks like it could be featured in a Kinfolk magazine. I expressed my wishes of having a clean, natural interior aesthetic and they truly delivered – the natural light in my newly designed home is to die for. They also helped me turn my dated, drab living room into a spacious and cozy space in which I can’t wait to host a party. I couldn’t recommend Alice more, if you’re looking for easy collaboration and top-notch design, you have to reach out to them!

I’ve worked with Alice on a few renovation projects and am still floored by her dedication to design and space planning. Never have I experienced a hiccup or missed communication with Atelier Cohen, and home projects tend to create those sorts of problems! They are professional, approachable, and innovative in a way that anyone with any level of home renovating or staging experience will feel like they are in good hands.

Alice’s eye, advice, and service is extremely rare in this business. If you get the chance to work with them, don’t think twice about it!

I had the pleasure of working with Alice on redecorating my childhood home that hadn’t been touched up since I was a teen in the 80’s. I knew it needed a huge refresh aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I had a consultation with Alice about my hazy ideas and she was able to understand my tastes and needs after just one chat! The whole design process was so streamlined and thorough that my fears of things going awry totally vanished after the first few meetings. She walked me through every step of the process, from sharing sketches and moodboards to purchasing the final pieces of furniture and decoration. Working with Alice at Atelier Cohen has got to be my greatest investment, I highly recommend their services.
