The 5’x5’ shower was stripped to the studs which allowed for all the new plumbing components including body sprays, 2 shower heads, and a rain head all enclosed (including the ceiling) in a gorgeous 12”x24” Quest matte tile that replicates a marble look. To make the 36” wide soap niche completely unique, an Arabesque Beveled Mosaic in a grey color lines the backside of it.

Closeup of the door to the hidden pantry. False panels and hardware to match the rest of the bank of cabinets. We custom made all of the kitchen cabinetry and shelving. The kitchen was a small area so maximizing usable space with function and design was crucial. The transitional design features a pantry wall with the Sub Zero all glass door refrigerator and oven cabinet centered and equal size pantry cabinets to either side with 3 large storage drawers below and rollout shelves and work surfaces behind the door cabinets above in each with a hidden walk-in pantry door next to the Sub Zero. The cabinets on the range wall all have large storage drawers with wood organizers in the top drawer for spices and utensils. The client also wanted floating shelves to either side of the steel hood which were made from re-sawn maple to look like cut pieces from an old beam, each shelf is lit from the underside with LED flush mounted puck lights. The island was our biggest challenge. It needed to house several appliances of different size, a farmhouse sink and be able to have function from all 4 sides and still have room for seating space on the backside. The sink side has the farmhouse sink centered with storage drawers to the right that feature wood organizers and a double middle drawer to help hold all the small utensils and still maintain the 3 drawer look from the front view that matches the integrated dishwasher to the left. The right side contains both the integrated soft close trash unit and an icemaker with a third false panel door to maintain the size balance for all three. The left side houses the Sub Zero undercounter freezer. I wanted the face to look like six equal sized drawers, which left the integrated drawer fronts for the freezer overlapping the side panel for the dishwasher. The back of the island has storage tucked up under the seating space. The quartz countertop meets up against the maple butcher block to create a stunning island top. All in all the end result of this kitchen is a beautiful space with wonderful function. We finished the false beams in our exclusive hand-rubbed cappuccino stain. Photos: Kimball Ungerman

Ground up custom bespoke home in Lake Oswego, Oregon, designed and built by Vanillawood featuring grey reclaimed Japanese Shoji wood accents against white stucco. We aimed for inconspicuous in the front, leaving the wow factor for the lake facing backside of the home. Carefully considered placement of windows capture the wooded scenery without sacrificing privacy. The home features a 2.5 car garage - room for two cars through the frosted glass garage door entrance and motorcycle access through the wood door. The driveway includes linear grass strips to add visual interest while the street view offers a sneak peek into the bird’s nest master level. Photography: Luke Lozano

This kitchen features cabinets painted in Benjamin Moore's Cliffside Gray HC-180, giving it a sleek and modern look. The wooden accents on the backside of the island and the range hood add a touch of warmth and natural beauty to the space. Black fixtures, including hardware, lighting, and plumbing, create a striking contrast and add a contemporary flair. One standout feature of this kitchen is the sliding glass window above the sink. This unique design element allows for a passthrough from the indoor kitchen to an outdoor kitchen area, providing convenience and an open feel. It creates a seamless connection between the two spaces, making it easy to pass food, drinks, or simply enjoy the view while preparing meals. Overall, this kitchen combines trendy gray cabinets, wooden accents, and black fixtures to create a stylish and functional space. The sliding glass window adds a touch of innovation and versatility, enhancing the overall appeal of the kitchen.
