This is truly a family friendly home. Every space is usable and unique. The open floor plan combines traditional elegance with contemporary features.

A warm gray runs throughout this home. Just inside the front door, there is a pop of color that greets you in the Living Room. We chose a deep green for the walls and added the gray to the furniture and the fabrics. This is designed to be a cozy room for reading and relaxing with friends.

I don't even know how to adequately thank the amazing builder of this home, Glenn Falso of Main Street Development. Thank you Philadelphia magazine for this outstanding opportunity.

We had the pleasure of working with some old friends, who are also sponsors again this year and with some wonderful new sponsors. I want to extend a huge thank you to all of you who helped to make this such a special place. This Design Home is a must see and opens soon.

This is the fourth year that I have had the honor of working on the Design Home for Philadelphia magazine. It is one you just don't want to miss.
