MEET THE DESIGNER & ENGINEER BEHIND YOUR NEW HOME!

STEVEN W. TATIOS, PE

Steve Tatios established Tatcor in 2003 after a 20-year career in the corporate manufacturing world with Tyco International.  A trained and licensed engineer, Steve has always had a knack for designing and building.  Like many others in this field, his first successful project was his own home in West Chester, PA. Since then he has helped hundreds of families all across the Greater Philadelphia area achieve their own dreams of a spectacular home to match their lifestyle.

Steve still lives in that same West Chester home with his wife Beverly.  They have four daughters, Lauren, Allison, Julie, and Jill, along with four grandchildren, Aris, Vera, Violet, and Maise.

3,500 SF Transitional Farmhouse - Elverson, PA
​
While this project is nothing short of spectacular, you won't find any overbearing statement pieces upon your visit - It doesn't have a grandiose staircase, a polished marble foyer, or a massive chandelier... all of which usually come with a slight level hesitation for visitors.  Rather, you'll be welcomed into this transitional farmhouse with hints of mid-century modern and contemporary design elements. Large windows, unique shapes, harmony with the surrounding landscape, clean and effective use of natural materials such as wood, stone and light, as well as an open floor plan set this home apart from others in the surrounding area. The farmhouse part speaks for itself as you enter down the long driveway with horses and cows lining the drive.
The emphasis has been placed on the finer details that many builders and homeowners overlook - a customized lighting plan with ambient, task, and accent lighting appropriately spaced throughout the house; the use of natural materials like stone, solid wood, and historic bricks from the streets of Chicago; an ergonomic layout that enables efficient flow throughout the house; and clear site lines from one room into the next with an open floor setting.  

Ben Franklin once said, "Human felicity is produc'd not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen, as by little advantages that occur every day."  This 3,500 square foot home renovation embodies this principle more than ever as each aspect of the house has a purpose and a function that will be enjoyed every day for years to come.  We are thrilled to be able to work closely with our client to make their custom home come to life in the finishing stages of this project!
