Over in Bridgwater lakes, at 100 lake Bend rd., there's seri-
ous drama in a staircase that incorporates glass and saw-tooth
stainless steel stringers along the sides.
While it's open-concept, partial walls create separation be-
tween spaces without interfering with the flow of natural
light throughout the home. Marble floors and a 9.5-foot island
with a quartz countertop are highlights, but one of the most
striking materials is an old-school hallmark of a Maric home —
wood, and plenty of it. That kitchen island is attached to a 6.5-
foot waterfall walnut table and the floor is solid walnut, too.
Maric says the family-owned company usually uses maple, and occa-
sionally oak, but whatever the species, you can't have too much of it.
"you can use it in any capacity. If you really clean it up and do a nice
dressed sharp edge you can make it really, really modern, but it always
still has this kind of underlying warmth to it because it's a natural mate-
rial — it's completely unadorned and not man-made," he says.
"glass we have to fabricate, steel you have to fabricate, but wood
is wood and (in) any home, the more wood you can put in there,
the better."
