This perspective captures the geometric rhythm of the oversized concrete paver walkway. By setting the smooth, light pavers in a bed of dark basalt gravel, our design+build team created a high-contrast entrance that guides the eye toward the front door. The precision of the hardscape installation is balanced by zones of decomposed granite and lush turf, demonstrating a versatile approach to modern landscape architecture. It’s a bold, architectural statement that redefines the standard for suburban curb appeal.

The Setup The homeowners of this Barrington Hills residence approached Drury Design with a clear vision: transform their existing kitchen into a space that would better serve their active family of four. With two young children who are homeschooled and love to bake with their mom, plus two dogs, this kitchen needed to function as the true heart of the home. The existing kitchen was functional but didn’t maximize the potential of the beautiful natural light and scenic views available through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The space was locked between the dining room and family room, which limited structural modifications, but the homeowners wanted to create a more family-friendly environment that would complement the warm walnut built-ins and furnishings in the adjacent dining room while staying true to the home’s overall aesthetic. Design Objectives: Create a highly functional workspace that accommodates multiple family members cooking and gathering simultaneously Maximize the connection to the beautiful outdoor scenery and natural light through thoughtful design choices Establish a cohesive color palette that complements the existing walnut elements in the adjacent dining room without becoming too tone-on-tone (aka “matchy matchy”) Improve the seating arrangement to take advantage of the stunning views (rather than facing away from the windows) Work within the existing architectural constraints, including a curved soffit that could not be removed Increase storage capacity while maintaining clean, uncluttered sightlines throughout the space Design Challenges: The curved soffit presented a design dilemma of whether to echo the curve throughout the kitchen or work with it in a more subtle way The relatively low ceiling height required careful consideration to avoid making the space feel cramped or cave-like The existing hardwood floor could not be refinished, which meant the new kitchen footprint had to match or exceed the original layout exactly Finding the right balance of warm and neutral tones to complement both the existing walnut elements nearby and the natural outdoor views proved challenging The refrigerator placement was constrained by door swing requirements, which affected the entire layout and prevented centering the sink on the back wall Rethinking the original seating, which faced inward toward the kitchen (turning backs to the beautiful windows and outdoor views) Pendant lighting from the previous kitchen obstructed views to the outdoors despite the abundant natural light available The Renewed Space Design Solutions: The curved soffit was embraced subtly through the full slab backsplash, which echoes the curve without requiring curved cabinetry or architectural elements that might feel forced Low ceiling challenges were addressed by using lighter painted cabinets for some tall elements, including the double oven, pantries, and refrigerator area, creating an airy feel while reserving the darker stained walnut for the center section and island The floor constraint was managed by designing the new layout to cover all previously unfinished areas while maintaining the exact footprint, with only minor touch-ups needed in a few areas The color palette balances warm walnut stain (harmonizing with the dining room built-ins) with soft, neutral painted cabinets – avoiding stark white that wouldn’t complement the home’s warm aesthetic Refrigerator placement was optimized with a slim pullout pantry to the left, allowing proper door clearance while maintaining the desired layout flow and enabling the main pantry to be positioned adjacently The seating was completely reimagined with a built-in banquette facing the windows, allowing diners to enjoy the outdoor views while providing flexible seating for two to four people Decorative pendant lighting was eliminated in favor of recessed can lights, preserving the unobstructed views to the beautiful outdoor scenery This kitchen transformation demonstrates how thoughtful design can dramatically improve functionality for a busy family while honoring existing architectural elements. The children immediately began cooking and baking with their mother in the new space, and the window-facing banquette has become a favorite gathering spot where the family can enjoy both meals and the beautiful outdoor views.

This photo showcases a modern bedroom design featuring a striking two-tone blue color scheme. The walls are divided into deep royal blue and a lighter, refreshing teal, creating a dynamic yet calming atmosphere. A sleek white ceiling fan with integrated lighting serves as a central focal point on the ceiling. Natural light streams in through a window, illuminating the light gray wood-look plank flooring and highlighting the crisp white trim along the walls and baseboards. The design demonstrates a contemporary approach to color blocking, resulting in a stylish and tranquil bedroom space.

This section of this Southlake front yard demonstrates how subtle design choices can contribute to a greater sense of outdoor living. The varied plantings add visual interest and texture, while the use of river rock as a ground cover creates a natural and low-maintenance element. The strategically placed lighting enhances both safety and ambiance, making this a welcoming and enjoyable space to approach the home.

A dedicated countertop adjacent to the stacked washer and dryer provides an essential landing area for laundry baskets, simplifying sorting, folding, and transferring clothes while improving the room's overall workflow. This thoughtfully planned workspace enhances everyday functionality and demonstrates how intentional space planning elevates even the most practical household tasks. To complement the existing gray ceramic flooring and black stainless steel washer and dryer, aged pewter cabinet hardware was selected for its timeless appeal and understated sophistication. The warm metallic finish adds depth and refinement while creating a cohesive material palette that balances contemporary appliances with classic detailing. Durability and ease of maintenance were equally important design considerations. The countertop material was extended seamlessly up the wall to create a matching backsplash, resulting in a clean, uninterrupted surface that is both elegant and highly practical. This integrated approach protects the walls from everyday wear, simplifies cleaning, and reinforces the tailored, custom aesthetic that defines a thoughtfully designed luxury laundry room.

This perspective of the stacked stone water wall demonstrates our meticulous approach to combining aesthetics with function. We optimized the weir length and flow rate to produce a calming, low-maintenance sound that masks noise from adjacent neighbors—a common requirement in high-end North Texas developments. Integrated LED lighting (not shown here, but essential for night) transforms this feature into a dramatic nighttime focal point. By utilizing drought-tolerant, soft-textured greenery nearby, our landscape architecture team ensures the feature remains pristine and lush, enhancing the overall private retreat feeling.
