A large grassy area accessible from the second level is ideal for relaxing and entertaining with family and friends, and features a fire pit with ample lounge seating and tall hedges for privacy and seclusion. Downstairs, an infinity pool with deck and canyon views feels like a natural extension of the home, seamlessly integrated with the indoor living areas through sliding pocket doors.

If you haven’t heard the term “aging in place” already, you’re going to hear it more and more in the next ten years. The term as emerged as more and more adults expressed their desire to stay in their own homes for as long as possible. Rather than moving into a community built around increased accessibility needs, home owners are looking to the kitchen and bath remodeling industry to innovate the spaces in their home where they perform the most important tasks.
As most long-time home owners realize, the need for accessibility and safety first presents itself in the bathroom. If balance is becoming an issue for a homeowner, the first concern that tends to arise is an exponentially increased fall-risk in the bathroom. Each year, one-third of individuals report a fall, and two thirds of those who fall will fall again in the next six months. Finally, falls are the leading cause of death from injury for people over 65. Individuals coping with injury, recovering from surgery, arthritis and other similar health issues are at an even higher risk of falling. In other words, every day, more and more people are finding the act of bathing or showering difficult, worrisome or even painful!
For those seeking to age in place, this is where acrylic tub-to-shower conversions, like Reborn Cabinets Bath Solutions, are incredibly helpful, and can dramatically improve a person’s quality of life. Highly customizable to meet anyone’s daily bathing needs, acrylic tub-to-shower conversions give home owners the option to add benches, safety rails, and even the ability to install a barrier-free design—easy entry for those who require wheelchairs or walkers.
But the aging in place-crowd isn’t simply looking for strictly functional solutions to their daily routine. Since these innovations are changing their already-existing bathroom, there is a need to move these accessible spaces beyond function and keep them stylish. Again, aging in place is all about keeping your house a home—not a “facility.”
Reborn Bath Solutions is a versatile product, allowing home-owners to choose from a great selection of colors and a wide array of fixtures. Sure, the “bathroom of your dreams” may look a little different these days, but you deserve it! Give us a call, and we’ll help you stay in your home and keep your daily sense of confidence!

Our client required a Universal Design for a San Diego downtown master bathroom that was functional, safe, and comfortable. The client requested a design for her father who had disability challenges. The design encompassed a slide-in tub and a comfort height toilet with fold down balance bars on each side. The magnificent slide-in bathtub is guaranteed to bring back the pleasure of a peaceful bath once again. The interior designer, Marie Cairns, also designed the new bathroom to be vanity wheelchair accessible with plenty of storage. In addition a wall hung medicine cabinet was installed to provide additional storage.

Our client requested a design that reflected their need to renovate their dated bathroom into a transitional floor plan that would provide accessibility and function. The new shower design consists of a pony wall with a glass enclosure that has beautiful details of brushed nickel square glass clamps.
The interior shower fittings entail geometric lines that lend a contemporary finish. A curbless shower and linear drain added an extra dimension of accessibility to the plan. In addition, a balance bar above the accessory niche was affixed to the wall for extra stability.
The shower area also includes a folding teak wood bench seat that also adds to the comfort of the bathroom as well as to the accessibility factors. Improved lighting was created with LED Damp-location rated recessed lighting. LED sconces were also used to flank the Robern medicine cabinet which created realistic and flattering light.

This bathroom remodel by Designed with Grace & Joy is a thoughtful blend of accessibility, comfort, and elevated design. Created with the homeowner’s long-term lifestyle in mind, this transformation proves that functional spaces can still feel luxurious and refined.
The layout was completely reimagined to feature a single-level floor with no shower threshold, ensuring seamless wheelchair accessibility and safe movement throughout the space. Strategically placed grab bars provide added stability without compromising the overall aesthetic. A drop-down shower seat and handheld shower fixture introduce flexibility and comfort, while the relocated shower controller prevents the shock of stepping into cold water.
To enhance both function and ambiance, a sleek lighted niche was integrated into the shower for practical storage and a soft glow. The removal of the dual-level ceiling visually expanded the room, creating an open, airy atmosphere that feels modern and inviting.
The result is a bathroom that balances smart universal design principles with timeless elegance — a space that supports everyday living while maintaining a clean, sophisticated look.

This master bathroom renovation was designed to blend modern luxury with enhanced accessibility and long-term functionality. The centerpiece of the remodel is a spacious curbless walk-in shower featuring large-format porcelain tile, a linear drain system, built-in bench seating, integrated grab bars, and a handheld shower fixture for improved comfort and mobility.
The custom shower design combines dramatic stone-look wall tile with a sleek frameless glass enclosure, creating a spa-like atmosphere while maintaining barrier-free access. Dual recessed niches provide convenient storage without interrupting the clean lines of the space.
The vanity area was completely updated with custom black shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, under-mount sinks, contemporary fixtures, and elegant arched LED mirrors. A floor-to-ceiling center storage tower maximizes organization while maintaining a balanced, symmetrical design.
Natural wood accents and vertical shiplap detailing add warmth and contrast to the modern palette of charcoal, gray, and white finishes. Accessibility features were thoughtfully integrated throughout the bathroom, including strategically placed grab bars, a generous shower bench, slip-resistant flooring, and open circulation space designed for ease of movement.
The result is a sophisticated, low-maintenance bathroom that delivers both high-end aesthetics and practical accessibility solutions for aging in place and everyday comfort.

A Transitional style home that evenly balances modern interior architecture with the balance and symmetry traditional architecture on the exterior. An extreme amount of time was spent on the right details to balance our team worked with the client, architect, and the Interior Design team each step of the way to breathe vision they had. Extra planning and detailing started with the height of the slab, concrete, and engineered and the collaboration didn’t stop until the last piece of sod was laid in the yard outside. The home faces interior park with sidewalks giving access to the larger walkable 366-acre Traditional Neighborhood Development. an “extra home” for the client, remote access and efficiency was woven into the very canvas of this home. stunning kitchen countertops are made from Rocky Mountain granite, which connects the owners to their home. In the gallery hall, ¾” plywood was installed beneath the sheetrock to ensure straight walls and hanging of artwork. Views from every window showcase views and sculptures. Similar to a symphony delivering rhythmed notes, this home sings an elaborate song meant to be shared.

This is a 10 foot gate custom designed to mimic the ridgeline mountain views from the property. The see through portion is mesh screen which balances the degree of privacy.
