This odd space in an open-plan home soars 2 storeys but had no interesting architectural features. A sleek modern taupe wood kitchen and breakfast room lies beyond. We wanted to bring the taupe woodgrain here, but given the rooms 20' height, there would be no way of doing so without piecing panels together. So we took the negative and turned it into a positive, creating a grid of panels with grain running in alternating directions, accentuated by dark taupe recessed dividers. An electric fireplace, together with an illuminated display niche, creates an arresting focal point highlighted by the darker taupe, which also highlights the window trims and crown moulding. Flanking the fireplace is a black wood cushioned hearth. A custom black coffee table and black-framed occasional chairs are balancing elements. Layered lighting is the finishing touch: dramatic metal sconces set off the fireplace at eye level, simple unobtrusive sconces between windows and on the sidewalls offer soft mood-lighting, and a pair of multi-armed modern chandeliers complete the picture.

A modern outdoor kitchen with traditional roots. Korean Boxwood, Nikko Deutzia, and Annabelle Hydrangea accent the stone facades of the outdoor kitchen living areas. The stone chimney is topped with a stainless-steel spark arrester. Vista Low Voltage LED walkway lights illuminate the walkway in the evening. Concrete counter tops cover all the stone outdoor kitchen walls.

This extensive remodel overlooking Lake Austin is a paean to the powerful art it enfolds. Rigorous editing of every distracting, inconsequential element of the original house was critical. So too was the insertion of new complementary components that provide artful ways to move through both interior and exterior rooms. The collection of modern art is arresting. Ranging from a Turrell hologram to a pair of Agnes Martins, the art is framed by the architecture and lighting so that it is experienced in a choreographed, curated way that encourages wandering and an intimate connection to each piece. The mood is set in the entry courtyard. A floating walkway curves down and around a brilliant spiraling blue Clement sculpture. It pauses once, at a moment of surprise, when the first view through the house is filled with the blue water of the lake beyond. Inside, the saturated color of many of the pieces of art are balanced by an absence of other visual clutter in the color palette, furniture, and architecture. A new interior plaster, steel, and bronze stair carves through a space occupied by two small Clement sculptures in niches, a McKay Otto sculpture on a landing and a glass cylinder elevator. This is a very specific place, designed for specific art and for a collector who has a close relationship with each piece.

This stately wood armoire is a work of stunning old world craftsmanship with modern day functionality to house all of your clutter as well as keep you organized. Open the double doors to reveal a plethora of shelving for at-a-glance selection of canned goods or other non-perishables, as well as folded clothing, board games, dishware, and more.

The metal ring pull hardware makes it easy to access your goods any time you need them.

Intricate scrollwork, floral detail, and medallion carvings grace the entire front of the cabinet to create a dimensional work of art.

Note: Custom Options such as Size, Shape, Shade & Design are not applicable to this item. Furniture is subjected to have Slight Variations. Real wood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are alike. Variations in solid wood grain patterns are to be expected and make each furniture uniquely beautiful, just like us humans.

The Challenge: Create a rugged yet warm farmhouse feel in a high rise tower. Start with an entire 9600 gross square foot penthouse floor of raw concrete floor, walls and ceiling. Devise inventive ways to address intractable existing conditions including a plumbing layout inconsistent with our Client program, a relatively low ceiling and a massive elevator core and yet take of advantage of panoramic views of the city from all sides.
For example, rather than make a bulky drywall enclosure for existing pipes that poke thru the kitchen counter, they are wrapped with antique painted galvanized sheet metal to keep sight lines around the corner as open as possible. Or, transform an unattractive and inconveniently located 24” diameter vertical duct in the middle of Samantha’s and Hannah’s (grandchildren’s) guest bedroom into part of a lovely arched top bed nook. Or, disguise a chase for above floor plumbing runs as the base for an open buffet counter. The oppressive elevator lobby was shortened; terminating in handmade glass and steel garden doors at both ends. Custom details include a groined vaulted ceiling and arched openings with stone pilasters (for future trompe-l’oeil images of a Tuscany countryside). To maximize a feeling of height, the ceilings start low and get higher as they progress to the outside walls.
The Program: Create a five bedroom condo for an elderly couple with specific and different needs. Mr. likes his privacy and to stay up late into the night on the internet. He likes order. Mrs. has some physical limits that have been addressed in various ways such as shorter travel distances, a step down shower, raised dishwasher and custom cast (to ensure that they won’t rust) iron grab bars. She prefers more disorder.
Spaces should be visually arresting, full of detail and easy to maintain. Private spaces include separate master bathrooms, his and her offices and a multi screened Media Room. The balance of the floor must link spaces into one continuous open room along the south and east elevations using large elements yet keeping an intimate scale, sound control and privacy. For example, a substantial fireplace made of old barn timber framing, country stone and a hammered iron grill is strategically located at the critical Southeast corner. Above, black iron offset pintel hardware allow custom double doors to hide a large flat screen TV.
High technology is in place for inconspicuous yet easy use. Icon driven key pads operate lighting, window treatments, audio visual systems with multiple sources and access to movie and music databases and five HVAC zones with independent humidity controls.
Outstanding Features: Exterior masonry walls have stone culled from five quarries. Sprinkled throughout are surprises - bricks with words as messages from the past, wood trimmed niches and colored glass. Glass pieces set in window corners offer bursts of color when backlit by the sun. These materials are assembled in a rough irregular fashion to look like the work of a mason from the Italian countryside. Interior ceilings and walls have overlapping layers of two plaster colors. Perimeter ceilings are made of smooth random width cedar. Rough planed cedar beams hide ductwork and allow the maximum ceiling height between them.
Custom details are everywhere-consider the ten foot barn doors on overhead track at the service elevator, cedar benches/storage areas that run below window banks, antique air registers, acid washed piano hinges and transom window operators and existing concrete piers that are featured instead of hidden. The floors are made of random width wide plank old oak with hand planed faces and edges. Overall, the elements were carefully selected or painted/stained to form a soft muted gray palate
The Country kitchen features an old fashioned style ice box appearance for the refrigerator/freezer, a tin ceiling, a distressed assortment of cabinets in multiple heights, colors and woods such as the cherry wood buffet cabinet with sliding glass doors on both sides. A backlit breakfast counter, a hammered copper hood and chicken wire inserts are part of the effort to make a comfortable, eclectic old fashioned looking Kitchen while containing the latest appliances and storage systems.

Cast from an all-weather stone and resin composite, our chateau-inspired Parisian Urn is arresting to the eye. When paired with dramatic plants, such as sculpted boxwoods, tall wispy grasses, or container-size trees, it makes a stunning addition to any entry or outdoor space.

The client came to us looking to update their kitchen and kitchenette in order to match recent changes made to the rest of their 1905 Cow Hollow home. Their goal? Build a space that was impressive and grand.
We chose classic luxury cues—golds and marbles—for the two kitchens and consulted on colors, light fixtures, and furniture throughout the rest of their home to marry the various spaces.
In the main kitchen, we created a focal point using a faux marble Calacatta Neolith bookmatch backsplash, an impactful piece that created that arresting effect the client sought at half the cost of real marble.
We paired that with simple, understated but rich accessories, like a sleek and simple oven hood that wouldn’t obstruct the backsplash and glossy, sterling grey cabinets with polished nickel accents. For a final touch of flair, we hung two ochre NYC 3-Tier Pear Chandeliers.
Together, these pieces cemented the look. High-Chic. Simple. Modern. Iconic.

Embodying a fusion of sophistication and minimalism, this space accentuates textured walls juxtaposed with vertical slatted panels. The organic swirl sculpture serves as an arresting centerpiece, harmonizing with the subtle earth tones throughout. Plush, modern furnishings invite relaxation, further enhancing the room's serene ambiance.

This classic 1970's rambler was purchased by our clients as their 'forever' retirement home and as a gathering place for their large, extended family. Situated on a large, verdant lot, the house was burdened with extremely dated finishes and poorly conceived spaces. These flaws were more than offset by the overwhelming advantages of a single level plan and spectacular sunset views. Weighing their options, our clients executed their purchase fully intending to hire us to immediately remodel this structure for them.
Our first task was to open up this plan and give the house a fresh, contemporary look that emphasizes views toward Lake Washington and the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Our initial response was to recreate our favorite Great Room plan. This started with the elimination of a large, masonry fireplace awkwardly located in the middle of the plan and to then tear out all the walls. We then flipped the Kitchen and Dining Room and inserted a walk-in pantry between the Garage and new Kitchen location.
While our clients' initial intention was to execute a simple Kitchen remodel, the project scope grew during the design phase. We convinced them that the original ill-conceived entry needed a make-over as well as both bathrooms on the main level. Now, instead of an entry sequence that looks like an afterthought, there is a formal court on axis with an entry art wall that arrests views before moving into the heart of the plan. The master suite was updated by sliding the wall between the bedroom and Great Room into the family area and then placing closets along this wall - in essence, using these closets as an acoustical buffer between the Master Suite and the Great Room. Moving these closets then freed up space for a 5-piece master bath, a more efficient hall bath and a stacking washer/dryer in a closet at the top of the stairs.

Harvey Norman Auburn Flagship Store has recently opened its new Bathroom Renovation Centre with 50 bathroom designs on display. Guiselle Bathrooms was handpicked to create one of the bathroom displays as a leading bathroom renovation specialist. Our display enjoys a prime location by the reception area, and we wanted our display to have an instant wow factor. The end result has exceeded our expectations, and our bathroom is regarded as one of the best in the centre!
The inspiration behind the display is a natural marble feature tile in Jade. Its deep green colour is visually arresting and works perfectly with the brass tapware and accessories. The brass finish is elegant and sophisticated and has a durability of a hard gold surface. The brass tapware is right on trend and makes the space to stand out from the crowd. Beautiful freestanding bath serves as a visual focus of the bathroom. It’s combined with a sleek floor mounted bath spout. Striking chandelier makes a bold statement with its multi-level design and handblown glass shades. Two freestanding basins lend a sense of modern luxury to the bathroom while stylish LED mirrors provide added illumination for optimum visibility. Simple yet elegant wall hung toilet features concealed in-wall cistern and a sleek flush plate. Round shower heads emulate the playful shape of penny round mosaic on the floor while the marble look wall tiles create a perfect backdrop for all the features. And we couldn’t resist putting an art print in our bathroom! In our opinion, this stunning artwork transforms the bathroom from a purely functional space into a luxurious domain!
