This coastal Rhode Island project's goal was to carefully balance comfort and sophisticated design elements, creating an inviting space perfectly positioned for welcoming family and friends.

Many years ago, when our color-loving clients approached us to help them with their family home in the city, we jumped at the opportunity to embrace bold colors and patterns that many would shy away from. So when this family of 6 informed us that they had purchased a new Victorian-style home in the same neighborhood and sought our design support again, we couldn’t wait to get started. 

Reider + Co customized a spec home by adapting the original floor plans to suit the client's needs. We carefully selected materials and finishes throughout the house, including the kitchen and bathrooms. The double-story great room features a stone mantel and wood slat cladding, creating a cozy atmosphere, with oversize light fixtures highlighting the room's height. The color palette includes earthy jewel tones, while the mudroom has custom lockers with a peg system for holding clothes and gear. The basement level features a game room, bunk room, golf simulator, and media space, making it an ideal retreat after a day of skiing.

Reider + Co designs homes that transform into stylish retreats matching clients' evolving lifestyles. We emphasized textural materials and high-contrast colors for a family's mountain home while maintaining a modern aesthetic with natural finishes. The ski house is comfortable and easy for the athletic family, with extra sleeping spaces, a sunken living room, and an oversize kitchen island. Specialty leisure spaces include an entertainment lounge, media room, bunk room, art studio, ski room, playroom, and sauna for ultimate relaxation.
