An entry with many layers

The front foyer of this remodeled home opens up to key spaces. From this perspective, through the dining space you can see the living room with a custom sculptural fireplace. On the left is a set of widows that are “Switch Glass”, double pane windows filled with gas that turn opaque when the front doors open. The doors were saved from the original home, with sidelights and glass panels added.

The flooring is a combination of grey and black bamboo and marble slabs.
