This project started as an attempt to experiment with used redwood. As I started to fabricate the wood structure, features were added with materials that were laying around the studio. One side was a piece of corten with a rough edge. Scrap carbon fiber fabric was epoxied to used galvanized steel sheet. The sheet was corrugated which had to be flattened hence the wavy look. I liked how everything started to take shape and I knew this was turning into something. The carbon fiber side needed an accent so aircraft vent flanges were added and filled with plaster. Rusted chromoly tubing became the front with nice used aluminum trim. On the tail end a technique was tried that I had never used before. This technique is called Bluing. All aluminum trim is hand cut and symbolizes aircraft skin cover plates. As for the name, CRT5 is completely random.

This curved window sunroom we made for our client David E. in Downtown Los Angeles, California was our most challenging and proudest project yet. We had to perfectly design a never-before-attempted template to remove the ugly grids his older, aluminum window frames had made. His majestic view of Los Angeles was replaced by 16 ugly aluminum windows which were deteriorating right before his eyes. His exact comments were, "Thank you for reminding me why I moved in here and purchased this home in the first place. You guys gave me my view back." We could not be happier.

Originally a nearly three-story tall 1920’s European-styled home was turned into a modern villa for work and home. A series of low concrete retaining wall planters and steps gradually takes you up to the second level entry, grounding or anchoring the house into the site, as does a new wrap around veranda and trellis. Large eave overhangs on the upper roof were designed to give the home presence and were accented with a Mid-century orange color. The new master bedroom addition white box creates a better sense of entry and opens to the wrap around veranda at the opposite side. Inside the owners live on the lower floor and work on the upper floor with the garage basement for storage, archives and a ceramics studio. New windows and open spaces were created for the graphic designer owners; displaying their mid-century modern furnishings collection.
A lot of effort went into attempting to lower the house visually by bringing the ground plane higher with the concrete retaining wall planters, steps, wrap around veranda and trellis, and the prominent roof with exaggerated overhangs. That the eaves were painted orange is a cool reflection of the owner’s Dutch heritage. Budget was a driver for the project and it was determined that the footprint of the home should have minimal extensions and that the new windows remain in the same relative locations as the old ones. Wall removal was utilized versus moving and building new walls where possible.

There are sectional sets that claim to be modern by portraying some enlightened path forward. But for every one of these efforts, is an equal and opposite reaction. The more we use our own guile to paddle forward, the more the stream of present reality seems to rush against us. Align was designed as an attempt to wash away those hindrances that obstruct growth. If there had been a choice, the designers would have kept Align just that. But while a sectional sofa set needs to be made curved, the intent was to stay true to the original concept. Align comes generously padded and upholstered in bonded leather, with slight button tufting and trim for only the gentlest effect.

This delightful couple purchased this home with renovation in mind. It was situated in an ideal location, but required a serious update bringing modernization while keeping it’s 1940’s period charm. They asked us to design an elegant Master Suite, complete with a bedroom, master closet and elegant bathroom. While we make every attempt to maintain original walls and floors, this renovation required complete gutting of two bedrooms and closets to open the space and allow for all they wanted. In this process we were able to bring uneven floors and walls into level allowing for great end results. The finishing touches on this bathroom included custom white painted vanity and make-up table with White Carrara Marble countertops and a custom tile floor design using Carrara Marble tile. A free-standing tub and bridge faucets/ tub spout upped the game on a modern take on an old-world plumbing fixture. The glass shower completes this sophisticated space, which gives this master bath a modern twist on traditional. We then turned our attention to the master bedroom, touching it up with new paint and refinishing with a new master closet separating the bedroom from the bathroom.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL
"I absolutely LOVE the cushions. This was my second attempt at getting custom cushions made for two chairs that my father made for me. The first pair of cushions lasted only two years and looked horrible after the first year.
"The cushions from Patio Lane are very comfortable, extremely well made and the craftsmanship is impeccable. I couldn't believe how quickly I received them! The bonus for me was the fact that you were able to use the same exact Sunbrella fabric that we chose for a new sofa earlier this year and these cushions coordinate nicely. They are absolutely beautiful and really compliment the chairs nicely. I'm very glad that I found- and took a chance on- Patio Lane!"

Dado designed this 4,000 SF condo from top to bottom. A full-scale buildout was required, with custom fittings throughout. The brief called for design solutions that catered to both the client’s desire for comfort and easy functionality, along with a modern aesthetic that could support their bold and colorful art collection.
The name of the game - calm modernism. Neutral colors and natural materials were used throughout.
"After a couple of failed attempts with other design firms we were fortunate to find Megan Moore. We were looking for a modern, somewhat minimalist design for our newly built condo in Cherry Creek North. We especially liked Megan’s approach to design: specifically to look at the entire space and consider its flow from every perspective. Megan is a gifted designer who understands the needs of her clients. She spent considerable time talking to us to fully understand what we wanted. Our work together felt like a collaboration and partnership. We always felt engaged and informed. We also appreciated the transparency with product selection and pricing.
Megan brought together a talented team of artisans and skilled craftsmen to complete the design vision. From wall coverings to custom furniture pieces we were always impressed with the quality of the workmanship. And, we were never surprised about costs or timing.
We’ve gone back to Megan several times since our first project together. Our condo is now a Zen-like place of calm and beauty that we enjoy every day. We highly recommend Megan as a designer."

This space was special indeed! When the family moved into their home the daughter of the house immediately laid claim to this room - which included a half-height storage space, full of possibilities!
For the main space we chose a bright, fresh green to keep the space uplifting all through the year. I used a blue stripe to mimic the feel of a canopy and to make a feature of the sloped section of the ceiling rather than attempt to hide it.
The room is filled with storage to accommodate a growing wardrobe and features upcycled furniture to ensure the space is completely bespoke.
Hidden behind a poster is a secret library, painted a dark, moody blue and styled to give hints of Hogwarts. The ceiling is adorned with a navy, celestial print wallpaper and there are cosy touches dotted around to make this the perfect spot to curl up and while away hours with a good book. Floating candles lend a touch of fun and much needed light to the space.

Designed by Kerbi Urbanowski, each piece incorporates shapes sketched, hand-cut, and then fired in a glass kiln at the Bullseye Glass Resource Center in Oakland, California. Its wooden base is a contemporary hybrid of the Edison Lamp X traditional stained glass Fan Lamp. "End of Day Glass" is an old glassmaker tradition, where you attempt to create something beautiful from the remaining broken glass pieces used that day.
Due to the individual nature of each item, please allow up to a 5-week turnaround. Each lamp comes with a naturally finished handmade wood base, cobalt blue cord, white in-line cord switch, cord grip, US standard plug, and one of a kind fused glass faceplate.
"When sketching, I tend to look at each composition as a unique challenge, an abstracted crossword puzzle that I have the enjoyment of solving. They take time, and if you bear with me, I promise to make you something special." - Kerbi
