At Velène Design House, we revived the home’s vintage charm, balancing original mid‑century elements, like stone fireplaces and wood paneling, with clean, contemporary lines, subtle traditional touches, and thoughtful textures. This mid‑century ranch remodel transformed a largely untouched 1960s home into a refined, family‑ready retreat.

After: A second-floor addition, along with a new porch and garage. We were able to add a master suite, secondary bedroom and bath, a front porch and rear screened porch, a new 9-foot ceiling on the first floor, a new shingle roof, and charming copper rain chains.

Today’s traditional kitchens are nothing like the overly embellished ones of the ‘90’s & early 2000’s, replete with intricately carved posts, columns, corbels, overlays and moldings. Today’s classic kitchen is edited down to time honored elements, simpler trims, with some contemporary touches. Recessed panel doors with a beveled inner profile, and slab drawers with a rounded outer trim, line the perimeter. The main body of the island is “L”-shaped, but the overhang is curved, repeating the curved breakfast nook window and paneled banquette. Clean-lined slab doors and drawers allow the island’s shapely form to shine. Two tones again prove popular, with gray paint on the perimeter and rift-cut white oak stained dark brown on the island. Clear glass doors flanking the hood have natural maple interiors to brighten the expanse of cabinetry. In the dining room, the upper glass doors of the hutch cabinets have matching painted interiors for a more formal look. Crown molding is an uncluttered cove, and under cabinet lighting is discreetly hidden in the recessed bottoms. Frosted drum pendants and a linear dining chandelier holding frosted glass “candles” are unapologetically contemporary. Perimeter countertops and backsplashes are subtly veined marble, while the island top is gray quartz. This project was done in collaboration with Kathleen Walsh Interiors.

This transitional pool bathroom remodel transformed a dated family bath into a bright, storage-focused space with a walk-in shower, custom storage tower, pedestal sink, medicine cabinet, wood-look wainscoting, white scallop shower tile, brushed nickel fixtures, and dedicated storage for towels, toiletries, pool essentials, and everyday routines.

These homeowners requested whole-house organizing, starting with the living room. Once we cleared the clutter, we "shopped" their house, repurposing items from other rooms. With only the addition of a new rug, we transformed their living room. The before and during photos here show the transformation.

This transitional coastal primary bathroom remodel transformed an awkward layout into a calm, functional retreat with a his-and-hers vanity design, extended storage bench, integrated drawer storage, walk-in shower, soft blue walls, white cabinetry, quartz countertops, brushed nickel fixtures, honey bronze hardware, and layered coastal textures.

Colleyville home was destroyed due to a pipe bursting during a severe winter storm in February 2021. The transformation of this home is stunning and featured on a segment of Designing Spaces Local Edition.
