“This design originated with the client’s desire to duplicate the warmth of Tuscan Architecture,” says Stolz. “The vision that South Coast Architects set forth was to create the feel of an old Tuscan Village as a private residence at their golf community, ‘The Hideaway’ in La Quinta, California. However, we had to keep in mind that we were still designing for a desert lifestyle, which meant an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living and capturing the spectacular views of the golf course and neighboring mountains,” Stolz adds. “The owners had spent a lot of time in Europe and knew exactly what they wanted when it came to the overall look of the home, especially the stone,” says Muth. “The mason ended up creating a dozen mock-ups of various stone profiles and blends to help the family decide what really worked for them. Ultimately, they selected Eldorado Stone’s Orchard Cypress Ridge profile that offers a beautiful blend of stone sizes and colors.” “The generous use of Eldorado Stone with brick detailing over the majority of the exterior of the home added the authenticity and timelessness that we were striving for in the design,” says Stolz. “Our clients want the very best, but if we can duplicate something and save money, what client would say no? That’s why we use Eldorado Stone whenever we can. It gives us the opportunity to save money and gives clients exactly the look they desire so we can use more of their budget in other areas.” Stolz explained that Eldorado Stone was also brought into the interior to continue that feel of authenticity and historical accuracy. Stone is used floor to ceiling in the kitchen for a pizza oven, as well as on the fireplace in the Great Room and on an entire wall in the master bedroom. “Using a material like Eldorado Stone allows for the seamless continuation of space” says Stolz. “Stone is what made the house so authentic-looking” says Muth. “It’s such an integral part of the house that it either was going to be a make or break scenario if we made the wrong choice. Luckily, Eldorado Stone really made it!” Eldorado Stone Profile Featured: Orchard Cypress Ridge with a khaki grout color (overgrout technique) Eldorado Brick Profile Featured: Cassis ModenaBrick with a khaki grout color (overgrout technique) Architect: South Coast Architects Website: www.southcoastarchitects.com Builder: Andrew Pierce Corporation, Palm Desert, CA Website: www. andrewpiercecorp.com Mason: RAS Masonry, Inc.

The primary bathroom was completely remodeled, but the footprint stayed the same. It consists of a new vanity with marble countertops, new lighting, new glass shower door, new tile bathroom (with inset), and new heated tile flooring.

The same footprint was used for this bedroom, except the traditional closets were removed and custom closets were installed to maximize the space. All new finishes for the floors, lighting, doors, hardware, and trim were installed.

In this kitchen/pantry remodel, the door to the pantry/laundry room was relocated to give the owner more countertop space in the kitchen. The previous laundry room was slightly reconfigured so that a customized full wall pantry could be installed, with a similar aesthetic to the kitchen.

Aesthetic Value: Owner requested a manor gothic “Munsters” show vibe. We achieved this look with a spider body balustrade panel design. Stair Safety: Meets local residential codes. Quality of Workmanship: Spider railing was created helical at mid-landing in order to keep the pattern contiguous. Technical Challenge: Fabricating the wood panelized spider railing system required precision compounding uniform accuracy. The balcony also had to blend with the rake spiders.

In this kitchen remodel, the door to the pantry/laundry room was relocated (and replaced with a modern black metal door) to give the owner more countertop space, but the kitchen is otherwise using the same basic kitchen layout. Everything in this kitchen is new, including all cabinets, appliances, lighting, etc. The homeowner wanted light, wide-plank wood floors for a Scandinavian feel, so they opted for Westover Oak throughout the home and removed the old laminate flooring.

This hall bath was the perfect spot to make a fun statement. The new bath features heated flooring, new chandelier, new soaking tub with tile surround and wallpaper. Because the homeowner is a bath lover, they opted to not install a shower here, but instead use the space to create a fun, spa-like feel.

This remodel was needed in order to take a 1950's style concrete upper slab into the present day, making it a true indoor-outdoor living space, but still utilizing all of the Midcentury design aesthetics. In the 1990's someone tried to update the space by covering the concrete ledge with pavers, as well as a portion of the area that the current deck is over. Once all the pavers were removed, the black tile was placed over the old concrete ledge and then the deck was added on, to create additional usable sq footage.

The old walkway to the side yard was replaced and a gate was built to give the home true privacy. The river rock was from a local river and helps continue the Midcentury aesthetic.

Custom Brantley Sectional Sofa by England Furniture It's what's on the inside that counts. That's our motto here at England. This is why we build all of our furniture here in the U.S.A. out of quality materials. And we think quality and design go hand in hand. We offer more than 450 fabrics for you to select from, so you can design the piece of furniture that is perfect for your home. And you'll have your custom furniture delivered in 42 days or less! This casual styled sectional sofa will dress your home with an elegant flair that is also relaxed with a look that speaks to comfort. The soft seat cushions will provide you with a relaxed place to sit with family and friends while the design offers a clean and tailored design. The cushions will seat 5-6 people with a cuddler on the end that is ideal for movie watching at the end of the day. This sectional is complete with exposed wood feet and rounded arms. The manufacturer of this item is so proud of its cushions that it backs them with a 10 year manufacturer warranty. In addition to being fully reversible, which helps extend fabric life, this item's loose cushions also include built-in air vents to ease the process of escaping air when a cushion is sat upon, ultimately extending the life of the foam. This collection was crafted on the value - It's what's inside that counts. Backed by a manufacturer lifetime frame warranty, this item is created from engineered hard wood, a manufactured wood made from multi-layer plywood that provides strength at an outstanding value. The engineered hard wood is then precision cut for interlocking accuracy and reinforced at points that receive the most wear. Each seat cushion on this item comes with a specially engineered, self-healing zipper. On occasion, the daily stress that is placed on furniture can cause a cushion's zipper to pop, allowing the foam to compress incorrectly when the cushion is sat upon. This collection's self-healing zippers prevent that from happening. If for some reason a cushion's zipper should pop, merely un-zip and re-zip the piece, and watch as the zipper fixes itself. Since 1964, this item's manufacturer has been crafting American made upholstered furniture in the foothills of East Tennessee. When other furniture suppliers decided to take their manufacturing oversees, this group's manufacturer remained in the US, offering American made furniture with a wide selection of American made fabric options.
