This 42 x 54 acrylic painting now hangs in the family room, setting a warm, personable and inviting mood.
For years Gail Hubberman had seen David Cochrans ads in magazines and always
thought the concept of a family portrait would be perfect for her family.
She felt her husband Steves upcoming 50th birthday was the perfect opportunity and she loved the idea of surprising him on his big day.
She knew she wanted the immediate family and both sets of parents depicted in the painting, but had no idea how to lay it out.
She invited Dave to her home to discuss possibilities. She was delighted to find that Dave would get the images needed to create the
painting from her own family snapshots (NO sittings!) and that they would work together to create a personalized background. Dave
assured her that the painting would be finished on time (he hasnt missed a deadline in 30 years) and the price seemed reasonable, so the
commission was confirmed. Dave even helped her determine an appropriate size for the family room wall.
As David scoured family photos, he found one of Gails favorite photos of her two children sitting in a laundry basket from 1997 and
decided to include it. He also depicted many personal family references such as: the family dog, Serten Advisors, in which Steve is Managing
Principal, JRs Ribs in Ocean City, MD (owned by Steves parents) and the Washington Capitals.
Gail decided to surprise Steve at his birthday celebration at Joes Seafood in Washington DC. The restaurant hung the painting in a prime
and visible location. As Steve walked to the table he stopped in his tracks and was rendered speechless, an unusual occurrence for him!
He marveled at the level of detail and how the artist captured the likeness and personality of his family.
Gicle prints of this painting were given to various family members.
I paint from photos to create a completely unique family portrait, frequently presented
for an anniversary or special event. Call or Email me with your questions or ideas.

Alexandria architect Allan Greenberg transformed what was once a town eyesore into
Claiborne House (top, right). Formerly Patrick OConnells home, it now serves as the Inns
presidential suite. Its grand, two-story foyer (top, left) features paneling made by local
craftsmen and faux-painted to complement the English wallpaper. The living room (above)
creates a sense of timeless splendor with faux-marbled columns trimmed in gold paint, an
antique reproduction screen and an English Wilton wool carpet from Stark.

KITCHENS
a crucial connection
Mary Douglas Drysdale revives a Bethesda kitchen with vibrant color and a new floor plan
Long-time clients with a home in Bethesda turned to Mary
Douglas Drysdale to design a whole-house renovation for
them. The kitchen, which is central to the traffic flow of the
house, was outdated, inconvenient and needed an overhaul.
The kitchen is sort of the L joint between the family room/
breakfast area and the living room, explains Drysdale. The
way it was, it just didnt work with how my clients wanted to
use the space.
The designer developed a floor plan that linked these spaces
via the kitchen while creating a beautiful new breakfast area
and modern family room. The clients had requested separate
islands for cooking and casual dining, so Drysdale designed a
furniture-like island for gathering at one end of the kitchen
and a larger one in the center that provides plenty of space to
work and also holds the sink. An existing professional-grade
Wolf range that the homeowners wished to retain was relocated to a wall opposite the sink. Countertops and the backsplash behind the range are Caesarstone, while the remaining
backsplash is wood paneling.
Color was an important decorative element for Drysdale, who
selected a dark teal hue from Sherwin Williams and applied it in
varying shades in a striped pattern on the walls. The cabinets were
painted to match. In a project where there is a desire for design at
a reasonable price, I often develop a striped paint pattern on the
drywall and coordinate it with the paint color of the millwork,
Drysdale explains. Its a custom look without a high cost.

DREAM
KITCHENS
When severe flood damage necessitated a whole-house renovation, the owner of a Georgetown townhouse tapped designer
Paul Bentham of Jennifer Gilmer Kitchen & Bath to overhaul
the ruined kitchen. This time around, she wanted a simple,
streamlined space with a modern, European sensibilityas well
as a more practical layout.
Bentham started by shifting the refrigerator and pantry
cupboards to one side of the kitchen and the double ovens
to the other, then centered the cooktop in between. He
maximized the length of the island, which houses the sink,
and topped it in Caesarstone with a waterfall edge to create a
clean, uniform look. Semi-custom cabinets by Canada-based
Zonavita Kitchens offer the sleek, contemporary lines of

Layered Modern
Erin Paige Pitts remodels an Annapolis kitchen in warm, contemporary style
Clients in Annapolis wished to renovate their circa-1980s
open-plan kitchen/family room, where they spend the majority of their time. They hired designer Erin Paige Pitts to create a more functional layout and a fresh, modern sensibility.
What surprised Pitts was the couples wish for a contemporary aesthetic, which contrasted strongly with the
traditional style of the rest of the house. They came to me
with lots of pictures of very modern spaces, she recalls. To
bridge the contrast, she opted for what she calls a layered
modern look with wonderful finishes that convey warmth
and interest.
Dropped soffits and an awkwardly angled peninsula
gave the original kitchen a dated look. Pitts removed the
soffits and replaced the peninsula with a long, spacious island that would be convenient to every part of the kitchen
and provide a spot for casual meals. Silestone counters

Berman won the condo boards approval with a mock-up of plans for the
four floors. His team worked with a local
structural engineer to penetrate a posttension concrete slab in order to join
the eighth and ninth floors. The Smalls
dream of combining the duplexes included implementing something visually
beautiful as a unifying element. So Berman designed a bold sculptural staircase
to span the floors, placing it against the
glass front of the building where its visible from the street as both a landmark
and a privacy scrim. The white Corian of
the rail panels is a conventional material
made fresh and different with an organic
pattern we cut using computer technology, says Berman. The pattern casts

shadows inside the condo that are different day and night.
Finding expressive new uses for standard building materials is one of the firms
trademarks. For the Smalls, Bermans team
selected a medley of natural materials as
building blocks for organizing and simplifying the layouts on the four floors. The
Plain sawn, cerused oak spans the floor and
walls of the main entry in the ninth-floor
family room/kitchen (opposite, top). Hans
Wegners Wishbone Chairs flank a kitchen
island (opposite, bottom) with a wood
slab extension. A custom Oxford sectional
sofa and Ligne Roset coffee table (above)
establish the living areas retro-style comfort.
For fun, the Eames chair and ottoman (right)
boast contrasting upholstery.

Sroka designed the wrought-iron stair rails in the main foyer (below). To the left, the foyer
opens to the couples shared study (opposite), where built-in desks can be concealed behind
doors. In the family room (above), the coffered ceiling mirrors the pattern in the floor; Srokas
team created sculptural shelving that holds extra ottomans when theyre not in use.
on the willingness to explore outside-thebox solutions. First, they tapped Phil Leibovitz of Sandy Spring Builders after admiring a house his firm completed nearby;
he introduced them to McLean architect
Glenn Chen Fong, whom they hired to design the home.
In this case, ADA [Americans with Disabilities Act] standards were not relevant
as they didnt accommodate a wheelchair
and service dog side-by-side, explains
Fong. Hours of discussions allowed us to
add up all the parameters and take a fresh
look at accessible design. We truly reinvented the wheel.
The existing awkwardly shaped lot
narrow on the street side but projecting
almost 500 feet deepturned out to be
a boon to Fongs design. Since Gina commutes to work via a Metro Access van, siting her quarters near the street made sense,
so he created a one-story cottage for her
with the family home extending behind it.
A long, light-filled hallway bordering
the familys three-car garage links Ginas
cottage to the main home. If Gina wants
to live wholly independently, she can just
close off the corridor, the architect explains. But if theres an emergency, her
parents can be there in a heartbeat.
Guests arriving at the main house enter
on the side into a gracious foyer, also accessible via Ginas inner corridor. The main
level encompasses living, dining and family rooms; a kitchen; a study; and a master
suite. Though a grand staircase leads to the
second floor, Gina can reach her two sisters bedrooms upstairs, as well as the lower
level, via elevator. In the basement, the entire family works out in a gym and indoor
SwimEx resistance pool.
As construction commenced, the clients hired designer Skip Sroka to pull together the interiors while addressing the
challenges of accessibilitysuch as floor
coverings. Marta told me, There will not
be carpet in this house. The wheelchair
will ruin the rug or, worse, the carpet will
roll into the wheels, recalls Sroka. So he
defined spaces with dramatic designs in the
hardwood floors, from geometric patterns
to an inlaid medallion in the couples shared

Facing the street, Ginas cottage (below) boasts a circular drive and a garage with a ramp
(above) to facilitate easy arrivals and departures. Despite its minimal street presence, the
structure abuts the main house, extending back almost 200 feet from this faade. The cottage
includes a bedroom, bathroom, laundry and kitchen (right) designed specifically for Gina.
The Gaggenau ovens floor and cabinets drop down to her level and a dishwasher drawer is
installed next to the sink. The cabinets on the far right are shown in the lowered position.

when cooking was in progress. The indoor pool is visible from the
family room through a wall of windows. We wanted to highlight
the pool area and have it relate to the house, explains one owner.
Chairs beside the windows swivel so guests can observe the action
in the pool from a comfortable perch.
Also adjacent to the family room is a three-season screened
porch that can be closed off from the elements by glass panes that
draw down over the screens. The porch leads to an expansive patio, beyond which lies another porchthis one covered but not
screened. It features archways that frame views of the backyard.
Downstairs, the bowling alley beckons. The lanes are clad in
the same laminated flooring found in professional alleys, and the
elaborate operating system is concealed in its very own room.
Vintage game boards and posters adorn the walls.
The bowling alley is part of an open-plan space that includes
a media center, a full bar decorated with original Guinness ads
from the 1920s and an alcove that holds a game table and custom
banquette. A workout space occupies an adjacent room.
I refer to this house as a staycation home, Gross-Bryant says.
The owners like to spend time at home, and this house offers
everything they need. Other than an occasional trip to the grocery
store, they never have to leave!

a 160-year-old National
Historic Landmark known as
the Old Soldiers Homewas

buildings damaged by the 2011

of masonry collapsed and the
130-foot clock tower was visibly

The hazardous conditions left
the building, a long-time home
for retired veterans, vacant for

painstaking restoration of the
building, located in Brookland.
