Our Burlington client hired us to beautifully update the living room, dining room and lounge area of their main floor. They were looking for improved functionality in terms of layout, as well as a more colourful space. They requested we also incorporate an office area in the dining room and coffee bar in the lounge. We happily created a custom design to address all of their requests. The final result was stunning and so well put together that the clients have since hired us back to create a custom design for their principal bedroom.

After discussing many options of where to have this pool installed on the property the final decision was made for the bottom of the hill. Many advantages for installation due to a cul de sac on the lower portion but it meant that there needed to be a substantial staircase to access from the house. Boulders were used for the main retention system with outcroppings used along the decorative concrete steps made by Belgard to address the hillside slope. A simple paver patio rounds out phase 1 of the project. Future plans for grilling/bar chill area are in the works for Spring 2021!

This basement renovation was specifically designed to provide additional and more functional entertaining space. We addressed the previous layout, where the old bar somewhat divided the area, by installing a new bar that seamlessly opens up the floor plan, creating a much more inviting space for gatherings. We also relocated the main gathering area to the larger open section of the basement. This allowed us to incorporate the big screened TV, making it a focal point for entertainment. The custom-designed built-in shelving unit serves multiple purposes. It cleverly integrates a necessary support beam into the design while also subtly defining the game table area. Furthermore, this piece offers a stylish wine display and includes concealed shelving for convenient storage.

This 5687 sf home was a major renovation including significant modifications to exterior and interior structural components, walls and foundations. Included were the addition of several multi slide exterior doors, windows, new patio cover structure with master deck, climate controlled wine room, master bath steam shower, 4 new gas fireplace appliances and the center piece- a cantilever structural steel staircase with custom wood handrail and treads. A complete demo down to drywall of all areas was performed excluding only the secondary baths, game room and laundry room where only the existing cabinets were kept and refinished. Some of the interior structural and partition walls were removed. All flooring, counter tops, shower walls, shower pans and tubs were removed and replaced. New cabinets in kitchen and main bar by Mid Continent. All other cabinetry was custom fabricated and some existing cabinets refinished. Counter tops consist of Quartz, granite and marble. Flooring is porcelain tile and marble throughout. Wall surfaces are porcelain tile, natural stacked stone and custom wood throughout. All drywall surfaces are floated to smooth wall finish. Many electrical upgrades including LED recessed can lighting, LED strip lighting under cabinets and ceiling tray lighting throughout. The front and rear yard was completely re landscaped including 2 gas fire features in the rear and a built in BBQ. The pool tile and plaster was refinished including all new concrete decking.

A pivotal aspect of the redesign involved transforming the traditional bathtub into a spacious, accessible shower. This alteration prioritizes ease of entry and maneuverability, addressing concerns associated with mobility limitations commonly experienced with aging.

Exquisitely designed by Closet Factory Houston, this custom walk-in closet features hand-crafted, maple diamond doors that are painted in antique white and glazed in a light grey to accentuate the diamond feature. The island boasts Carrera marble tops and velvet jewelry drawer inserts.

The new space creates a defined kitchen separate from the pantry/bar area by reducing the opening with a wall and pulling the refrigerator out of the doorway and pantry into the kitchen. The opening was reduced enough to separate the rooms while still keeping it large enough to address the dining room connection. The husband had one request: to make room for his whimsical picture in the redesign. By building a picture frame over the bar sink we incorporated the owner’s picture as part of the cabinetry complete with a hidden picture light behind the crown molding to illuminate it. The raised panel, French blue cabinets are finished with a dark brown glazing. These are full overlay doors and drawers, constructed with high precision to maintain a 1/8” gap between every side of a door and drawer. PHOTO CREDIT: John Ray

In every project we complete, design, form, function and safety are all important aspects to a successful space plan. For these homeowners, it was an absolute must. The family had some unique needs that needed to be addressed. As physical abilities continued to change, the accessibility and safety in their master bathroom was a significant concern. The layout of the bathroom was the first to change. We swapped places with the tub and vanity to give better access to both. A beautiful chrome grab bar was added along with matching towel bar and towel ring. The vanity was changed out and now featured an angled cut-out for easy access for a wheelchair to pull completely up to the sink while protecting knees and legs from exposed plumbing and looking gorgeous doing it. The toilet came out of the corner and we eliminated the privacy wall, giving it far easier access with a wheelchair. The original toilet was in great shape and we were able to reuse it. But now, it is equipped with much-needed chrome grab bars for added safety and convenience. The shower was moved and reconstructed to allow for a larger walk-in tile shower with stylish chrome grab bars, an adjustable handheld showerhead and a comfortable fold-down shower bench – proving a bathroom can (and should) be functionally safe AND aesthetically beautiful at the same time.

A key highlight of the remodel was the creation of a stylish wet bar in an underutilized space, where they can enjoy their morning coffee or glass of wine when entertaining. In this beautiful Chevy Chase kitchen renovation, the clients desired a kitchen that was both functional and stylish to make the heart of their home ideal for cooking and entertaining. In the kitchen, the choice of dark gray lower cabinets and white cabinets create a sophisticated contrast, while an elegant range and hood elevates the kitchen’s overall aesthetic. Geometrical backsplash, a well-designed island, and contemporary lighting adds texture, making this Chevy Chase kitchen renovation distinctly modern. Addressing the client’s wishes, our designers re-imagined the entry hall and built a pantry and coat closet, fulfilling both practical needs and design aspirations in this now captivating kitchen.
