Before our transformation, dark wood flooring drew the eye downward. After, a beautiful Tufenkian hand-knotted, dyed wool rug matches the artwork over the fireplace, taking your eyes on a colorful journey around the space. It’s worth investing in a quality rug, and I always encourage my clients to...
Sunnyside Luxury Living Room
Opulence and luxury are expressed through a double-layer of custom throw pillows in colors and patterns that tone with the sofa and velvet recliners. Each decorative pillow with contrasting welt was carefully selected from fabrics at the San Francisco Design Center along with my client, for a...
Sunnyside Luxury Living Room Side Table & Sofa
A place we really lavished attention was on high-quality window dressings. To balance the straight architecture of the room, stationary side draperies are stacked in sage green outdoor fabric to prevent sun-fade over time, while accent trim stands out from the face edging, a luxury detail....
Sunnyside Luxury Window Treatments
The original kitchen was a monument to the late 80s/early 90s, with cheap plastic-fronted appliances, boring cabinets, mismatched countertops, plus those diamond-shaped wall accents everyone had. Yuck!
Sunnyside Kitchen in Orange and Blue
The clean, modern lines of the new faucet and simple quartz countertop with coordinated backsplash really lets this kitchen shine.
Sunnyside Kitchen Waterfall Quartz Counter
I relocated the cabinets, pushed back the wall and opened up the space with a glass-panel French door. With the newly-added seating, your girlfriends can soak up the sun and chat while you whip up some appetizers.
Sunnyside Kitchen Counter Seating
After my renovation, the appliances work with the beautiful cherry wood cabinetry instead of fighting it, appearing balanced and modern alongside the coordinated, sleek hardware. The natural stone and glass mosaic backsplash brings a hint of color from the walls of the formal dining space into the...
Sunnyside Kitchen with Cherry Wood Cabinetry
Kimball Starr transforms lives one room at a time by providing dining and kitchen design for outdated and unloved spaces throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and Lake Tahoe regions.
Sunnyside Traditional Arts and Crafts Dining
The dining room is traditional in style. Built-in cabinetry, picture rails, and warm wood floors and doors express the history of the home and continue the narrative between rooms, making the entire space feel complete and harmonious.
Sunnyside Traditional Dining Built-In
The traditional style dining area has a view through to the luxurious living room. Built-in cabinetry and picture rails express the history of the home and continue the narrative between rooms, making the entire space feel complete and thought-out, like it always belonged there.
Sunnyside Traditional Dining & Chandelier
We installed tile wainscoting to keep with the traditional Arts & Crafts architecture of the home, and added white glass pendant lights and custom curved mirrors for a balance of contemporary and traditional.

Sunnyside Bathroom Floor & Tile Detail
Have you ever had a powder room that’s just too small? A clever way to fix that is to break into the adjacent room! This powder room shared a wall with the water heater closet, so we relocated the water heater and used that closet space to add a sink area. Instant size upgrade!
Sunnyside Blue Powder Room
This powder room before-and-after takes my breath away! Dark blue handmade tiles ground the walls, and are balanced above with pale and ethereal sea mist toned tiles. Statuary marble in various forms from tile to mosaic maintain visual interest and classic sophistication.
