While little was needed in regard to
updating the exterior, the entry point
was one of the first and most dramatic
changes of the remodel.
Veronica Schreibeis Smith, CEO and
Founding Principal at Vera Iconica
Architecture, says, “The exterior and
site work were in good condition.
However, the log structure was heavy,
with austere, solid wood exterior
doors. We redesigned the front entry
to add light to the interior spaces,
making the first impression of the
home inviting and open.”
The new entry door is 3.5 by 9 feet
and made from reclaimed wood and
decorative steel bolts. The now light-
filled entryway also includes seating
designed by Poltrona Frau and Heidi
Jung’s “Seaweed Study III” in Sumi ink,
charcoal and pastel on a Mylar panel.
