Kitchen - contemporary kitchen idea in New York

We renovated the existing original bathroom to make better use of the limited space, all the while keeping the time period look of the home. We removed the shower walls and replaced them with glass panels to give more room in the shower and create a more open bathroom. No one looking at the new bath can even believe it is the same space as the original. It was a fun project making the tight bathroom more user friendly. -Prost Photography

We created a welcoming and functional home in Tribeca for our client and their 4 children. Our goal for this home was to design and style the apartment to 1/ Maintaining the original elements, 2/ Integrate the style of a downtown loft and 3/ Ensure it functioned like a suburban home. All of their existing and new furniture, fixtures and furnishings were thoughtfully thought out. We worked closely with the family to create a cohesive mixture of high end and custom furnishings coupled with retail finds. Many art pieces were curated to create an interesting and cheerful gallery. It was essential to find the balance of casual elements and elegant features to design a space where our clients could enjoy everyday life and frequent entertaining of extended family and friends.

Home Outside's 3D Views help the homeowner visualize the end result and communicate ideas to their landscape installer. This Idaho homeowner wanted a front yard seating area that would invite neighbors to stop for a friendly chat amidst a colorful palette of blooming shrubs and perennials.

This bathroom / Laundry used to be really un-user friendly, and was in desperate need of a Renovation. We removed every item from both rooms including the gib and floor boards, and transformed the Bathroom and Laundry into this fantastic useable space.

Glass and bronze-framed doors open to reveal a kitchen that’s equal parts hardworking and serene. Glossy green cabinetry and honed marble surfaces define the palette, while a sculptural island grounds the space with warmth and texture. Designed for a young family, the layout balances openness with the ability to close off the kitchen for quieter moments.

The objective was to create a warm neutral space to later customize to a specific colour palate/preference of the end user for this new construction home being built to sell. A high-end contemporary feel was requested to attract buyers in the area. An impressive kitchen that exuded high class and made an impact on guests as they entered the home, without being overbearing. The space offers an appealing open floorplan conducive to entertaining with indoor-outdoor flow. Due to the spec nature of this house, the home had to remain appealing to the builder, while keeping a broad audience of potential buyers in mind. The challenge lay in creating a unique look, with visually interesting materials and finishes, while not being so unique that potential owners couldn’t envision making it their own. The focus on key elements elevates the look, while other features blend and offer support to these striking components. As the home was built for sale, profitability was important; materials were sourced at best value, while retaining high-end appeal. Adaptations to the home’s original design plan improve flow and usability within the kitchen-greatroom. The client desired a rich dark finish. The chosen colours tie the kitchen to the rest of the home (creating unity as combination, colours and materials, is repeated throughout). Photos- Paul Grdina
