Franke is introducing to North American clientele its new Pescara Collection, a contemporary family of sinks and faucets with clean lines and a large, open workspace inspired by Italian tradition and its artisan culture. Now available in showrooms nationwide from a global leader in the manufacture of luxury sinks and faucets, Pescara sinks are made from the highest quality Franke stainless steel; exceptionally resistant to staining, rust and corrosion; remarkably durable; and an embodiment of contemporary elegance. Pescara faucets redefine functionality from the inside out, particularly the Semi-Professional model which features an innovative rear-docking spray head. Franke’s award-winning Pescara faucets have architecturally precise lines and are sold in a variety of styles. Pescara’s Semi-Professional faucets – available in three sizes – feature 360-degree spout swivel ranges and intuitive switches that allow users to easily toggle between full and needle spray. One Pescara Semi-Professional faucet model (available in either satin nickel or polished chrome) features an innovative, dual-function hose: water flows effortlessly from the spout when it's in its magnetic docking station; simply remove the hose from its dock, touch a toggle switch, and it transforms into a spray hose that has extended reach to every corner of the sink. Once finished, simply set the hose back into the dock, and the faucet spray reverts to its original full flow path. This unique feature doubles the spray reach and minimizes the hose length. Additional Pescara faucet styles include: the Prep Faucet with a 360-degree spout swivel range; the Deck Mount Pot Filler with both hot and cold water inputs; and the Wall Mount Pot Filler.

Our client is a huge cook and wanted the kitchen to continue in the theme of being designed for guests. Renowned Renovation built the owner’s dream kitchen in a relatively small, yet highly efficient, space. As you can see in the photos, the kitchen is open to the living room, making sure the cook is still in the mix of the company. A large quartzite countertop was designed to also double as a banquet-style serving area for parties. The client choose Renowned Cabinetry and Grant and his team designed the kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, wet-bar, and a hutch on the lower-level. This kitchen was custom-designed with all high-end appliances. From the 36” Thermador refrigerator with a touch-to-close door to a Miele built-in coffee maker—functionality and comfort pave the way for the best in luxury kitchen renovation. We also choose a Miele Steam Oven, for a top-of-the-line innovation for a home cooking experience. “The unique external steam generation in the form of Miele MultiSteam technology ensures perfect results,” for all cooking needs. The Kitchen lighting was impressively designed. There are recessed down and recessed directional lighting with independent switches. We installed Lutron Caseta lighting, a high-end Smart controlled system. By having more control over the lighting you will always be sure to be able to set the mood. This system also allows you to control your lights from an app so you’re able to turn on lights in the house when you’re nowhere near it. The kitchen design is beautifully enhanced by the premium Quartzite countertops and backsplash. This is a silver macabus quartzite stone that has a natural shine and durability. One end of the countertop is a waterfall edge. This provides a clean vertical drop down the side of the counter. The effect is a modern look that eliminates the separation from the counter to cabinets. The backsplash is the same quartzite countertops. It’s a separate piece but it appears as one continuous stone that lines up to meet the hand-crafted line of Renowned Cabinetry. Many designers will suggest elaborate and decorative backsplashes as a feature to a kitchen renovation. In this home, and for a modern and minimalistic look, the goal is to use the same materials. The look is elegant, beautiful and simplistic. It’s not sticking out or catching anyone’s eye.

Building this exceptional home cinema system in Westlake, TX was a pleasure from day one. Our clients have owned multiple home theaters, and wanted to step up the performance in this new media room. The construction of the room is heavily reinforced with 2x6s. The entire room has been insulated to keep the sound inside the room and minimize leakage to the rest of the house. The riser base for the back row of chairs was reinforced with wood screws, and was fully insulated. In addition, the walls have been sheetrocked with Quietrock. This treatment substantially keeps the sound from traveling between walls because of its high density coefficient. Because the media room is on the 2nd floor, a sound barrier was added to the floors to provide an additional layer of sound control within the room. The finished walls were treated with custom acoustic panels from Auralex. We applied absorptive, reflective and diffusive treatments throughout the room to create a well-balanced acoustic environment for music and movies. The interior designer brought in a faux painter to create a leather-like texture on the walls. She very creatively faux painted the acoustic cloth panels to match the leather look and feel of the room. A 7.2 complement of Triad speakers are optimally located within the room. The front three LCR speakers are positioned behind an acoustically transparent Stewart video screen. The four surround speakers are located in a horseshoe-shaped configuration and fully envelope the listener with all the subtle (and not-so-subtle) special effects. Two Triad Gold subwoofers are placed in the corners and are dialed into the room for maximum output and tautness of bass. Triad builds an in-wall speaker that is fully baffled which minimizes any sound loss through the walls, and the performance is outstanding. The electronics featured in this media room are cutting edge. A Wolf Cinema projector with a Variscope lens allows us to set up the most popular aspect ratios and project a brilliant light on a 143" diagonal screen. We utilized the latest pre/pro from Integra as well as Class D amplification from Bel Canto. The Integra incorporates Audyssey digital correction circuitry, which measures the room’s properties/acoustics and maximizes the sound in the room. The sources include an Oppo Blu ray player, AM/FM, DirecTV HD and AppleTV. The entire system is controlled by an RTI touchscreen remote for easy, intuitive control. The sound is effortless and it is a match made in heaven. The room consists of two rows of seating. The front row is a very comfortable pit seating group and the second row utilizes leather theater chairs. All of this leads to a well-appointed, acoustically superior media room.

And for easy maintenance, the new Miele Coffee Systems now automatically rinse all milk spouts and hoses with water after each use.

In the heart of Oak Grove, Decatur, our client envisioned a kitchen where cozy warmth meets elegant details—a space that not only looks beautiful but works seamlessly for everyday life. As their guide on this renovation journey, we crafted a custom kitchen solution that feels like the true heart of their home, blending perfectly with its original character. The existing kitchen layout didn’t quite fit how our client used the space. With the stove range originally placed beside the breakfast table, the setup felt cramped and lacked functionality. To improve the kitchen's flow, we thoughtfully reconfigured the layout. By closing off an opening to the hallway, relocating the pantry, and moving the stove range to a more central location, we transformed the kitchen into a space that suits our client’s daily routines. The original stove area was redesigned as a breakfast station with additional storage, creating a smoother, more intuitive flow. To honor the home’s original charm, we added hardwood flooring that matches the wood tones throughout the house, tying the kitchen seamlessly into the rest of the home. Our client wanted colors that complemented the home’s palette while adding a fresh, airy feel. Inspired by the natural green tones in their fireplace mantel stone tiles, we chose Sherwin Williams Cornwall for the island and tall cabinets, bringing a rich, grounding presence to the room. Sherwin Williams Alabaster on the walls adds a soft brightness, balancing depth with light. Every detail of this Oak Grove kitchen renovation was carefully selected to enhance our client’s lifestyle while preserving the unique charm of their existing space. Now, this kitchen is a place where cozy family meals and elegant gatherings come together effortlessly—a true fairytale ending to their vision.

Solid Apollo LED. For this renovation, the owners wanted to go towards a more contemporary and inviting design by bringing more light to their hallways while taking advantage of the large energy savings that LED’s provide. Along the top of the cove moldings, bright Warm White LED strip light was used to act as interesting element that flowed with the lines used in the design. The snap and lite interconnectors were used to quickly install the long lengths of strip light. Moon LED lights were used extensively in this area to deliver simple accents and energy saving lighting. Each of the light zones are controlled using any Smartphone or Tablet with the LEDWizard Wi-Fi LED Controller.

Lian also used a cabinet installer found on the Semihandmade Website. “He was extremely affordable (about half of what IKEA installation costs) and was fantastic. He was communicative, fast and very professional,” she says. And, of course, the installer was following IKD’s design layout. She explains: “When researching kitchen designs and options, we found a recommendation to use IKD for the design of IKEA kitchens. We checked out their Web site, loved what we saw and the price was reasonable. It was an easy decision!” The layout also makes the kitchen more efficient as well – particularly when she is cooking. “The layout makes it easy to navigate and the placement of the appliances, kitchen island, sink and storage all work seamlessly together to make cooking that much more fun. I love how much storage space we actually have now and how easy it is to prep food and cook. Everything is very intuitive,” she concludes.
