In the heart of Somerset, a modern house sought to evolve into a perfect home for the Bentt Bugos family. Michiels Partners undertook the challenge of transforming an uninviting and isolated living room into a vibrant, welcoming space. The key to this transformation was the addition of a see-through fireplace and creating large opening into adjacent rooms.

The new design invites both socialization and relaxation, bridging the gap between the warmth of the fireplace and the liveliness of the family’s social spaces. This thoughtful alteration ensures that the living room now stands as a dynamic centerpiece for the Bentt Bugos family, reflecting both their need for comfort and their desire for an open, inviting home. Located in Somerset, MD.
