As the heart of the home, this kitchen is a warm and welcoming space with deep hues and wood accents. Without being overwhelming, the deep blue island and subway tile backsplash add a fun pop of color and contrast nicely with the lighter quartzite and warm wood aspects. While it is aesthetically pleasing, the kitchen is also extremely functional for both entertaining and everyday living. The expanse of quartzite counters, selected for its durability and easy maintenance, offer plenty of space for prepping and preparing meals or enjoying a breakfast with family and friends. A unique, custom-designed vent hood and light fixture add character to the space while elevating the overall design and asserting its one-of-a-kind quality. Wolf and SubZero appliances complete the kitchen and make it suitable for any chef enthusiast. Lastly, the open floor plan offers quick access from the kitchen to the main living, hearth room and dining space.

Harbor Vantage at Merry Wood Manor was thoughtfully designed to blend timeless Northwest architecture with modern family living. From the moment you arrive, the home balances warmth, scale, and craftsmanship through natural textures, dramatic rooflines, and inviting outdoor spaces that feel connected to the surrounding landscape.
Inside, the home was carefully tailored around the homeowners’ vision and lifestyle, creating spaces that feel both elevated and comfortable for everyday living. Expansive gathering areas, custom detailing, and intentional sightlines make the home ideal for entertaining while still feeling warm and personal.
Every aspect of the project reflects a collaborative design process focused on functionality, beauty, and long-term livability. At Pacific Home Source, we believe great design comes from listening closely to our clients and helping guide them through the process with creativity, transparency, and experience. The result is a home that not only looks stunning, but truly feels like it was built specifically for the family who lives there.

For our full gut renovation of this Manhattan loft penthouse, we partnered with architecture firm Todd Zwigard Architects. Many of our clients know us as experts in the full design-build approach, where we handle every aspect of the project. But in this case, architectural plans were already drawn, the full schedule was finished, and our clients needed a partner to execute on the architectural plans – enter Gallery. Construction management is as vital to a project as the design phase, so we’re happy to offer our expertise in this type of scenario.
A DIFFERENT APPROACH
Construction and design are often the face of most renovations, but the planning and follow-through are naturally just as necessary to make it all come together. The project itself was a fairly straightforward gut renovation of the loft. Everything was included: new floors, a new kitchen, new bathrooms, new lighting. Our task was to manage every aspect of the construction, ensuring that the planning work of Todd Zwigard Architects was executed to the exact vision imagined for this Manhattan loft renovation.
CONTEMPORARY GOES ECLECTIC
Although we didn’t contribute to the aesthetic of the interior design in this project, we did carry out the plans that brought it life. The tone was very modern, with some eclectic touches. The kitchen, featuring an island with a baby blue lacquered finish, blends contemporary clean lines into an industrial-tinged, almost futuristic aesthetic. Reclaimed wooden doors and art pieces collected throughout the years are an ode to the client's travels, an artistic touch from Todd Zwigard Architects.
LET’S TALK
Quality of work is of course important, but there are several components of construction management that are equally vital: communication; processes that make sure you're able to adhere to schedules; protocols with both safety and communication. You might say this is the nerding out of the construction process. It’s not often the face of a project, but it’s absolutely massive in terms of carrying out a successful renovation, whether it’s a penthouse loft in Manhattan, a condo in Prospect Heights, or a kitchen in a Brooklyn brownstone. Quality construction management is probably one of the biggest ways to separate professional contractors from those who aren’t.
ART FROM CHAOS
This was such a large project, so our ability to procure and source all the finishes and fixtures was hugely important to our clients. The sheer number of floors, tiles, and plumbing fixtures alone that need to be ordered, in addition to everything else, plus figuring out lead times, shipments, deliveries, and inspections. It can quickly become chaotic, but there’s an art to the planning and organization, and we’ve mastered it.
The larger a project is, the more likely that havoc will rear its head. The antidote is not only really proper planning and construction management, as we achieved in this Manhattan loft penthouse renovation, but also a great working relationship with everyone else involved in the project: contractors, architect, and clients alike.
