As in most homes, the family room and kitchen is the hub of the home. Walls and ceiling are papered with a look like grass cloth vinyl, offering just a bit of texture and interest.

Naturally, the darker the color, the better the shades can diffuse sunlight and minimize glare. For these sliding glass doors, flanked by two auburn brick walls, the darker shades served as a good addition to the darker wood floors. The versatility of roller shades makes them excellent for complementing all sorts of strong or soft decor choices with harsh or light color schemes. For more details on our custom made roller shades for glass doors or windows, call 1-877-708-5883 to schedule a free in-person consultation with no obligation and talk to the Master Blinds design team yourself!

There is no shortage of storage space in this massive walk-through closet that takes up nearly one third of the master suite. Full-height cabinets surround you in this u-shaped closet, with additional storage space for seasonal items in the upper cabinets. A large dresser island is stationed near the built-in bench and contains a pull-out laundry hamper for easy folding, sorting, and laying out of clothes for the day ahead. Strategically placed mirrors ensure you always feel confident and "put together" from every angle, and a rolling ladder ensures nothing you need is ever out of reach. Talk about a dream closet!

Engineered cedar siding creates beautiful gray-blue tones at the exterior of the home, while adding a textural element to activate the simple exterior design.

This home had a generous master suite prior to the renovation; however, it was located close to the rest of the bedrooms and baths on the floor. They desired their own separate oasis with more privacy and asked us to design and add a 2nd story addition over the existing 1st floor family room, that would include a master suite with a laundry/gift wrapping room. We added a 2nd story addition without adding to the existing footprint of the home. The addition is entered through a private hallway with a separate spacious laundry room, complete with custom storage cabinetry, sink area, and countertops for folding or wrapping gifts. The bedroom is brimming with details such as custom built-in storage cabinetry with fine trim mouldings, window seats, and a fireplace with fine trim details. The master bathroom was designed with comfort in mind. A custom double vanity and linen tower with mirrored front, quartz countertops and champagne bronze plumbing and lighting fixtures make this room elegant. Water jet cut Calcatta marble tile and glass tile make this walk-in shower with glass window panels a true work of art. And to complete this addition we added a large walk-in closet with separate his and her areas, including built-in dresser storage, a window seat, and a storage island. The finished renovation is their private spa-like place to escape the busyness of life in style and comfort. These delightful homeowners are already talking phase two of renovations with us and we look forward to a longstanding relationship with them.

The 4,000-square-foot, two-story home includes four bedrooms, a spacious game/bonus room, office/den, butler’s pantry, craft room, and a large laundry/mudroom. The spacious kitchen has loads of storage and a giant island that doubles as a social gathering spot; it also features top-tier appliances from Albert Lee Appliance, including a built-in coffee bar. The house has an open concept dining room and family area. Large Milgard Stacking Moving Glass Wall Systems open to an outdoor entertaining and kitchen area, making the two spaces become one. Using Milgard Ultra Series windows and patio doors in "Black Bean", they were able to put a modern twist on this traditional farmhouse. Because of their versatility, black window and door frames have become a highly popular design trend.

They say lively conversation is the spice of life. And we are talking kitchens – so if open floor plans are de rigueur, and guests gravitate to the kitchen, why is it so difficult to have a multi-person conversation while sitting? Eating islands (and peninsulas) are in vogue for good reason: we spend most of our time in the kitchen socializing while we prep and cook. The problem is that when seated in a row, one can usually only see the person to either side. The guest on either side of your immediate neighbor is left out. Changing that straight line to convex has several effects, not the least of which is livelier conversation. The shape adds to the circumference, providing more personal space for all seated, while not intruding too much (often not more than eight inches); a gentle curve permits all guests to see each other with a nod of the head. Curves tend to soften objects, so a convex island adds a feeling of sensuality. Photography ©2014 Adam Gibson

In this Tschida Construction project we did not one, but TWO two-story additions. The other phase was the butler's pantry, laundry room, mudroom, and massive storage closet. This second addition off of the previous kitchen double the kitchen's footprint, added an extremely large dining area, and a new deck that has an awesome indoor/outdoor window connection. Another cool feature is the double dishwashers anchored by a beautiful farmhouse ceramic sink. A under cabinet beverage fridge, huge windows overlooking the wetlands, and statement backsplash also make this space functional and unique. We also continued the lvp throughout the main level, refinished their fireplace built in wall and got all new furnishings. Talk about a transformation!
