We feature a concept of a "Family Room" for both the last century as well as today's cutting edge gaming technology. The sophistication of the room gives way to the reality of today's family's needs of TV, conversation, games, music, art and just being delightfully quiet. Calmness was achieved by the use of just Charcoal Grays and Winter Whites, with clean lines mixed with Antiquities. The handmade fireplace of Wormy Chestnut stained in Gray will support a superior oil done by famed artist, Kevin Fitzgerald, showcasing the most delicate ocean wave just at twilight.  The room will show the textures and soft tones of a luxury room, while the durable pieces allow for real family use.


About Brad weesner

 

"Have you ever experienced walking into a space — and realizing that you have just been transported to someplace very special?" asks Brad Weesner. "This wonderful transformation is the very reason I love interior design." Raised in Washington, D.C., the designer has always been surrounded by classicism, diplomacy, graciousness and the international climate that only the nation's capital can provide. "Washington is one of the most beautiful cities in the world," he says.

Clients appreciate the designer's prior management experience in luxury hotels, residential construction and real estate. "It is daunting to put something so personal as your home in the hands of someone else. But when there is a common goal of good design, this always works beautifully and our clients have seen that the journey was worth it. The aspects that architecture can bring to a room and the client's desire for functionality are always the fundamental starting point in my work. To then create a remarkable interior is my ultimate goal." This focus is true for the firm's residential projects as well as hospitality and corporate projects. Recent work includes the historic theater, The Weinburg Center for the Performing Arts in Frederick MD, and the 60 year old landmark, Annie's Paramount Steak House in Washington D.C. The designer's residential projects include a custom 15,000 square-foot stone faced colonial and a contemporary and glamorous penthouse both located in Bethesda.

The use of original artwork, wonderful lighting and calming colors are the hallmark of Weesner's design work. He serves on the board of the Frederick Arts Council and his projects have been published in "Spectacular Homes of Washington, D.C."
