**★★★★★ — ilumus, llc., Dec. 2016**

> Che Bellissima! Taking beautiful photos is easy when I work with Cucina di Cannelora. With her extensive background in cooking, Lisa understand what makes a kitchen work - in beautiful style. Her bathrooms are pretty astounding too. A fantastic designer, and a pleasure to work with, I can't wait until my next collaboration with CdiC.

**★★★★★ — kbeato, Oct. 2014**

> I hired Lisa Cannelora to remodel my 50 year old kitchen.  As my house was built in 1930, the kitchen layout was very challenging.  Lisa gave me an excellent design!  I was surprised by the layout that she chose and it was perfect!  She handled everything about a kitchen remodel that I hate!  She scheduled everything, worked with the contractor and handled all of the problems, most of which I heard about after the fact!  I will not hesitate to hire her again and recommend her to everyone!  She  makes remodeling  you house pleasurable!

**★★★★★ — mtoman, July 2014**

> Lisa is excellent at designing beautiful, yet functional kitchens and baths. She has amazing resources, and works well with the contractors to provide a seamless remodel within budget and on time. We highly recommend her and the associates she recommends at her eponymous business. Oh, and you will definitely want to visit her amazing showroom in Alameda, for a glimpse of the workmanship and design she offers!

  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: A family home which is the gathering place for 20-30 people each Passover needed a new kitchen. Understanding how two cooks maneuver in this small space was key in realizing its potential. I say let’s invite 50 people this year!
- [Modern Rural](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-rural-pj-vj~2148723)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Recently retired, this couple realized now was the time to remodel and maximize their kitchen. They love to entertain, but the layout was too cramped and the individual rooms made the hosts feel separated from their guests. Removing a wall with a little engineering saved them tens of thousands of dollars by not having to do an addition. Their kitchen is large and glorious. They could n0t be more delighted.
- [A Room with a View](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-room-with-a-view-pj-vj~2160324)
  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Initially, this client just wanted a face-lift. But after seeing the possibilities of our design, they decided to go for it. For the finish, they were inspired and fell in love with the dramatic stone for their counter top. For the first time in 20 years, they can shower while enjoying their 180 degree view of the Bay and Golden Gate. What a retreat it is!
- [Modern Marina](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-marina-pj-vj~2160635)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: This kitchen was a full remodel with wall removals, the addition of windows, and a stunning Nano door to the Estuary. This coast guard family now has a forever place to settle and enjoy their home, and its surroundings. This new massive kitchen is a gourmet cooks delight. There are cabinets for days without feeling claustrophobic. The large island is designed with two functional materials: walnut wood butcher block for chopping and Caesarstone to surround the prep sink and where folks eat, for e…
- [Sea Cliff Classic](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sea-cliff-classic-pj-vj~2160787)

  - Description: This majestic home was brought back to life with a full gut and remodel. We captured the original characteristics while integrating the modern features. The client wanted to create a space where family and friends can gather and partake in what this wonderful old home has to offer.
- [Vintage Restoration](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vintage-restoration-pj-vj~2160933)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 3
  - Description: After 20 years of raising a family and creating meals in the tiniest of kitchens, it was time to bring the kitchen into to modern age, while keeping it consistent with the architecture of the 1930’s age of the home. The marmoleum floor with the black stripe reads back to the 30’s. However, the modern appliances and lighting allow for a bright and cheery place to cook. Whether baking bread or roasting coffee, the husband is in heaven in his vintage kitchen.
- [Rustic Marina](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rustic-marina-pj-vj~2162650)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 3
  - Description: An active family that loves the outdoors, the hustle and bustle of kids in and out and casual entertaining wanted to open their space to accommodate the multiple activities. A 1940’s house on the estuary in Alameda was craving a modern update with a nod to the old recycling glass plant across the water. The client loves everything nautical, as their lives are centered on the water with rowing, sailing and simply enjoying the view from their deck. Now they can cook, watch the kids in the back yar…
- [Gorgeous Golden Gate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gorgeous-golden-gate-pj-vj~2162707)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 4
  - Description: How do you top the view of the Golden Gate Bridge? You don’t! Our philosophy is to complement the feature area not compete. We added a sandy floor tile, foggy grey walls, and sunny ocean blue glass. Perfecto! In addition to remodeling the master bath, the kids’ as well as half bath were added to the list. Sharing a bath can be frustrating. When each person has their own space and the atmosphere is calm – all is well. The half bath off the kitchen is fun and a great use of space and light.
- [Suburban Modern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/suburban-modern-pj-vj~2163092)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: An avid art collector and burgeoning home chef finally took the time to remodel. Their home reflected their impeccable style, except the kitchen with a 1980’s relic with no counter space. We were able to bring in beautiful cherry cabinets and a Siena style backsplash that reads to their simple and elegant style. They now can invite friends and family over to share the beauty of their home and celebrate with beautiful food that she loves to create in her functional kitchen.

  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 3
  - Description: Sometimes after living in a home for 20 years you cannot see the possibilities. The husband loves to cook, but only had 12 inches of counter on either side of the range. The open balcony was a lot of real estate being under utilized. We added 12 feet of counter to their kitchen, so it is now a cook’s delight. In addition, the guests get to watch the chef while they wait for their delicious meal.

  - Description: A home with 3 baths allows for some creativity. This guest/home office bath had an amazing window looking into the trees. A custom glass mosaic tile was used to capture the special light coming through. The curved bench seat is a perfect resting place for guests and the upper perch is the cat’s nesting place in the sun.
