For this whole house remodel the homeowner wanted to update the front exterior entrance and landscaping, kitchen, bathroom and dining room. We also built an addition in the back with a separate entrance for the homeowner’s massage studio, including a reception area, bathroom and kitchenette. The back exterior was fully renovated with natural landscaping and a gorgeous Santa Rosa Labyrinth. Clean crisp lines, colorful surfaces and natural wood finishes enhance the home’s mid-century appeal. The outdoor living area and labyrinth provide a place of solace and reflection for the homeowner and his clients.
After remodeling this mid-century modern home near Bush Park in Salem, Oregon, the final phase was a full basement remodel. The previously unfinished space was transformed into a comfortable and sophisticated living area complete with hidden storage, an entertainment system, guitar display wall and safe room. The unique ceiling was custom designed and carved to look like a wave – which won national recognition for the 2016 Contractor of the Year Award for basement remodeling. The homeowner now enjoys a custom whole house remodel that reflects his aesthetic and highlights the home’s era.

contemporary bathroom, simplicity reigns supreme. The back wall features vertical tiles in a deep, moody hue, their texture adding visual interest. Against this backdrop, a sleek white toilet stands out, its minimalist form emphasizing cleanliness.
The wooden vanity, with its warm tones and visible grain, introduces organic appeal. Atop it rests a pristine white countertop basin, complete with silver faucets mounted directly on the wall. It’s both functional and elegant—a harmonious choice.
Above the vanity hangs a rectangular mirror framed in the same wood as the vanity. This thoughtful continuity ties the space together, amplifying the room’s sense of openness. A small black tray on the vanity holds essentials, adding subtle functionality.
Soft illumination comes from a glass pendant light with an exposed filament bulb. It hangs gracefully in front of the mirror, casting a soothing glow. And discreetly integrated into the ceiling is an exhaust fan—a reminder that even stylish spaces prioritize practicality.

Welcome to our latest project—a stunning pondless waterfall inspired by the majestic Banff waterfalls, seamlessly integrated into our clients' backyard oasis. Our team took special care to craft a unique experience, opting for a pondless design for minimal maintenance and maximum aesthetic impact.
For the patio and slab stepping stones, we chose Barkman Concrete grand flagstone in the sophisticated Pacific Grey color. The choice of materials not only ensures durability but also adds a touch of elegance to the overall design.
One of the distinctive features of this project is the meticulous scribing of the flagstone to mirror the natural curvature of the boulders. This technique not only enhances the visual appeal but also showcases the level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines our work.
Our goal was to create a space that stands out and transports the tranquility and beauty of Banff's waterfalls right into our clients' backyard. We invite you to explore the images and experience the seamless blend of nature and design in this unique project.

Homeowner Rick Whitworth knew he wanted to settle near Puget Sound after becoming enamored with the area during his Naval career, ultimately building his ultra-contemporary home on Marrowstone Island.
The maritime pasts of both the homeowner and the builder Peter Bates of Good Homes Construction influenced the final design and material choices of the Pacific Northwest home. Bates sourced reclaimed wood from a shipyard for the partition in the kitchen. Straight-grain Douglas Fir flooring runs up to the Marvin Ultimate wood windows and up the walls, encasing the interior in warmth.
“The Marvin Ultimate line was great because they are so customizable, and you can talk to the factory, and you can talk to the reps, and they'll work with you to say, ‘What are you trying to accomplish? How can we do this? Is that window too big? Will this work this way?’ That was a real appeal of the Ultimate line is how customizable it is,” said Bates.

Busy with a new home, working full-time and raising a young child, Elaine knew her large, white kitchen required a team effort.
Luckily, she researched examples of all-white kitchen designs as inspiration.
“I knew what I wanted my kitchen to look like, but I needed more customization and ideas for the space that would appeal to my aesthetics as well as our busy lifestyle,” she says.
Therefore, she recruited IKD’s design team.
“I wanted someone who had lots of experience designing IKEA kitchens. IKD fit the bill after seeing the results of their work online from past customers. They had the experience and knowledge to manage all the finer details of the IKEA kitchen options. IKD helped me focus on the big picture by helping my stay organized and keep my sanity!”
She adds that initially she was tempted to do the install herself, but knew she didn’t have time.
“Although I’m handy, I worried that it would take me twice as long because I would have to figure out how to install it first. I ultimately went with IKEA’s installers. IKEA’s installers were extremely professional and did an excellent job,” she says.
This was a good choice as the installation for her IKEA kitchen – particularly with its minimalist kitchen theme – faced a few unique obstacles.
“It was tricky trying to coordinate everything; from ordering the new appliances, scheduling the kitchen installers and [coordinating with] my general contractor who did the electrical and plumbing. It was rather time consuming and nerve-wracking,” she says.
She adds that the installers were able to customize all cabinets and pieces to fit around the appliances for a seamless look.
“They made the installation seem easy but it was definitely not,” she says.

Overview:
Located in Estero, Florida, Verdana Village is a new planned community that offers a wide range of amenities and outdoor activities for residents. With its proximity to beautiful beaches and the peaceful Estero River, the community is a popular choice for families seeking a vibrant and active lifestyle.
Features:
The centerpiece of the community is a spacious pool and pool deck area, which boasts a variety of high-quality facilities. These include both indoor and outdoor tennis and pickleball courts, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a versatile movement studio, and a convenient full-service café for residents to enjoy.
Design Solution:
To provide much-needed shade for pool deck users, Azenco was commissioned to design and install a series of durable and elegant 8’ x 8’ pool pergola structures. With no limitations on where the pergolas could be placed, the team focused on selecting the most robust and visually appealing options.
The Azenco R-SHADE system was chosen for its insulated fixed roof panels, effectively blocking the sun's rays and providing respite from passing showers. Additionally, the hidden gutter system of the R-SHADE ensures that rainwater is efficiently channeled away from the pergola space, keeping guests dry and comfortable during their stay.
