GRAS Evening Windows View
The cottage boasts large side windows to highlight views and bring in daylight with optional lower venting units for fresh air. There are also sliding glass doors at both ends of the building for seamless porch and deck access, additional light capture, and for highlighting additional views.
GRAS Daylight Window View
The Gras cottage in daylight emphasizing its linear side view potential and venting via lower window units. A simple, streamlined stainless steel gutter and downspout manage rain when it comes, and a porch and deck offer outdoor space for sunny and rainy days alike.
GRAS Great Room
Vaulted ceilings visually enlarge the main room of the Gras cottage giving the entire living area a creative air. Ceiling options include typical sheetrock or an air-sealed tongue and groove wood. Down low the floor can be finished as a mechanically smoothed contemporary concrete, an engineered floating wood floor, or both, depending on the room. Why not have a resilient concrete finish for your entry area and bathroom, and a comfortable wood finish for your living spaces?
GRAS Living Room with Porch
The open floor plan and soaring ceiling allows the indoor space to absorb the expanse of the outdoors when you want it to. When privacy is desired, the space will still seem large and open despite window coverings thanks to the same features.
GRAS Dining Room with Porch and Windows
The long lines and large windows at either side of the open floor plan allow this space to feel effortlessly spacious but the roominess is real. There is plenty of space for cooks in the kitchen, family or friends at the table and room to cross paths with each other in comfort. The kitchen island could support an eating bar along with the dining area space or be utilized for extra storage as in the photo!
GRAS Dining Room with Island Storage
There is so much space in this area! Space for a dining table ample enough for intimate family dinners or a gathering is planned into the square footage so that meal times and celebrations don’t feel cramped.
GRAS Kitchen with Island
The open lines allow one to be far from living room activity and have some quiet space for cooking but easily supports moments where the cook doesn’t want to be out of the action and closed off in another room. It’s easy to feel the energy of the entire space with long lines of sight and expansive windows in all directions.
