In-Site Interior Design, Inc., a full-service interior design firm with offices in Manhattan and Huntington, Long Island, has received a 2007 Long Island Builders Institute, Inc. (LIBI) Diamond Award for Remodeling, Historic Re-creation for the renovation of a landmarked Park Slope single-family residence. The award was presented to In-Site's president and owner, Elizabeth Sanchez Vaughan, last November at the LIBI Awards Gala held at the Huntington Hilton in Melville. Sanchez Vaughan said, "The goal of the In-Site renovation was to incorporate the needs of today's active family into the space, while fully respecting the distinctive architectural character of the circa 1932 residence." The design team began with the point of entry, converting the entrance vestibule into a grand foyer. In keeping with the functional requirements, the area conceals integrated storage that matches the molding and style of the walls. Installing white carrera marble tiles bordered by verde and black marble for the floor and Oriental design carpet runners add elements of grandeur previously unseen. The kitchen was updated with appliances and new cabinetry while Vermont green slate floors and countertops reinforce the traditional style. New lighting and a vibrant color scheme maximize brightness and energy throughout the five-story residence. Limestone tiles and mosaics in the master bathroom transform the room into a modern spa-like experience that retains its classic feel. The secondary bathroom showcases the original claw foot tub, refinished; a custom leaded glass window allows natural light to penetrate. The facade is currently being restored and a rooftop terrace will be added.
