These panels were designed to marry together the uneven pairing of a sliding door next to a window by being full-length and meeting in the center. Custom bypass rings and brackets allow the rings to smoothly traverse past the center support brackets. Lining was omitted to avoid too much bulk when stacked back since the fabric is upholstery weight.

MAN CAVE SPEED BUMP Problem: Customer wants to create a Man Cave, but as snow melts off of cars in the adjoining heated garage, uneven floors allow water to seep into the room. Solution: We stop the water seepage by creating a concrete bump, like you see in parking lots or streets, between the rooms. This stopped the water from draining into his man cave and is strong enough to drive over if needed. Painted safety yellow to avoid tripping, his new man cave now stays clean and dry.

A dark wood panel accent wall was installed to separate the kitchen from the entertainment room. We took advantage of having such a wonderfully, large piece, and designed a hidden closet complete with an automatic door switch to turn on the light. This hidden storage is an excellent way to hide away larger items, such as a ladder, while keeping them near enough and avoiding any hassle. The storage unit is custom made with wood paneling and includes lights that are setup to hold plant bulbs, perfect for any domestic botanist. Home located in Chicago's North Side.

A basement should be a warm wonderful place to spend time with family in friends. But this one in a Warminster was a dark dingy place that the homeowners avoided. Our team took this blank canvas and added a Bathroom, Bar, and Mud Room. We were able to create a clean and open contemporary look that the home owners love. Now it’s hard to get them upstairs. Their new living space has changed their lives and we are thrilled to have made that possible.

Warm tones on the bedding and headboard provide that welcome while avoiding a too masculine tone. Pops of red in artwork and bedding lighten up this otherwise neutral space.

When we designed this home in 2011, we ensured that the geothermal loop would avoid a future pool. Eleven years later, the dream is complete. Many of the cabana’s elements match the house. Adding a full outdoor kitchen complete with a 1/2 bath, sauna, outdoor shower, and water fountain with bottle filler, and lots of room for entertaining makes it the favorite family hangout. When viewed from the main house, one looks through the cabana into the virgin forest beyond.

Photo by Ross Irwin --- The clients performed a massive face-lift on their home over the years, the last room that needed some TLC was the kitchen. The cabinets were looking tired and lacked accessibility. We didn't revolution the layout, but we did streamlined it. We reduced the size of the island, eliminating the overhang. Also, we turned a clutter-magnet desk area, into an upscale looking hutch. Also, we elongated the wall cabinets to make them touch the ceiling and avoid dust-collection.

The client came to us with an extraordinary property to build their family dream home on. The waterfront location requires the house to be elevated an entire story, so the gradual massing helps uplift this design in order to avoid feeling too massive. Soft stucco arches span across the lower level, with an exterior stair concealed within, screened by decorative trelliage and bougainvillea blossoms. The double height entry and great room open out to the spectacular vista. The master suite is secluded on the upper level, with a private terrace and commanding views.
