Inside the tour:

The DC Metro Modern Home Tour allows modern design enthusiasts to get inside each home and meet the Architects, Builders, and Designers on each unique project and get inspired. This presents a chance to experience the latest in modern building materials and incorporate them into their own designs.

Inside the Dual Modern Home project:

Located in Highview Court, in Silver Spring, MD sits a one-of-a-kind, piece of art. This renovation and addition to the Architect’s own 1950 mid-century modern house, designed by Charles Goodman, included two phases.

The existing Goodman structure was first renovated five years ago, with a new kitchen, bathroom, and windows. The original floor plan was preserved, except for the kitchen being opened to the main living room. The just-completed addition extends the living space to include a library, an office that doubles as the kids’ hangout space, along with two new full bathrooms and a laundry room.

This unique union of structures combined with a multi-level footprint, open concept design, and concrete floors would naturally pose some unique heating, ventilation and air conditioning challenges. Finding the right air quality solution was critical to the flow, literally and aesthetically.

From a visual design perspective, floor vent covers in open-areas must blend into the surroundings. Not to create sightline disruptions. Where would the design team find unintrusive, clean-lined, sleek modern floor grilles? What floor registers would be best to use on these concrete floors? Enter kül grilles!

The team searched and found our website. They chose our Brushed Chrome vent covers for their clean-lined design and cool modern finish. kül grilles provided the perfect combination of beauty, form and function. A testament to good modern design.
