Renovating the worn master bath of this 1950’s contemporary ranch was a challenge, but the Renovisions team took the task in stride. The biggest design challenge was enlarging the bathroom while also creating a usable and functional sitting area adjacent to their master bedroom. A few of the design highlights included; the pocket door which created an unencumbered space in the bath, a larger sized shower with no door and a lineal drain with curbless shower entry, larger format porcelain tiles, a shower niche, heated floors with a programmable thermostat, and a one piece concealed trap skirted toilet. Clipping the corner wall upon entering the sitting room softened the shape of the room and ensured comfortable walking space through the hallway into the master bedroom. The homeowners particularly love the customizations of the stylish designed vanity which included ample space to store bath supplies in the full extension drawers and a bottom shelf for towels. The custom Benjamin Moore dark blue/grey colored cabinetry and framed mirror looks stunning with the Silestone’s ‘Pulsar’ quartz countertop and shelf pieces. They also loved the gray-blue muted marble tones of the 12”x24” shower wall field tile and chose a bright mosaic-look tile for the rear wall of the shower niche. Replacing the older windows provided more natural light into both the bathroom and sitting room spaces. With spa-worthy, on-trend, creative uses of space, this ‘Renovision’ was enjoyed and appreciated by these homeowners!

This homeowner got a major bathroom upgrade with a spacious acrylic shower. The shower has an almond colored base with a Cliffside Marble acrylic wrap. The rain can shower head is from Dryden. The shower has a corner seat and 3 grab bars for safety and luxury. The clear glass shower door is hinged and has 1 hook and 2 towel bars. The plaster walls are painted in practical beige. The tile floor in ceramic hardwood has programmable heating. The vanity is faced with kiln-dried, Amish-crafted, shaker-style cabinet panels in knotty alder, glazed in black. Countertops are finished with Cambria quartz in Windermere. All faucets are from Delta's Dryden series. Two Glenmont globe light bars illuminate the space.

This project successfully reclaims a beautiful Tribeca loft space from the dysfunctional layout and dated decor of previous renovations. The project’s main goal was to establish a stronger division between the public and private areas of the apartment by switching the locations of the kitchen and bedroom. By moving the master bedroom adjacent to the existing bathroom and adding a new powder room off the kitchen, the new layout allows for a much stronger delineation between private and public functions. The new bedroom area features new closets, a separate nursery room, and custom walnut headboard shelves. A new operable translucent-panel wall gives privacy to the bedroom, while maintaining a loft-like feel. The adjoining bathroom was renovated to restore the original high ceilings and provide for a new tub, shower stall and walnut vanity. The new kitchen includes custom walnut cabinets, a single-piece Pietra Cardosa countertop island, a walk-in pantry with separate laundry room closet, and new designer fixtures and appliances.

LAD DC HOUSE TYPE: APARTMENT, INTERIOR DESIGN AND FURNITURES LOCATION: ROME, LARGO ELVEZIA PROGRAM: 300 m² INTERIOR DESIGN: Simone Lanaro DESIGN: 2014 COMPLETED: 2014 The task only regarded the interior furnishing: the customer bought the house after renovation in classic style and contacted us “in media res” to complete the flat. Only two architectural changes were possible: a bathroom and the entrance, which we had the chance to open and connect with the living room. The project theme is the use of brass in several furniture’s details. Appliques, abat-jour, mirrors and candlesticks are by Selezioni Domus http://www.selezionidomus.it/ Black coffee table and black consolle are by Mario Consolo http://www.consolomario.it/ Table, chairs, sofas, armchairs, coffee table and all the other furnitures were designed by LAD. The lithograph in the living room is by Hans Hartung; The photographs in the library are courtesy of Simone Bergantini.

The project involved completely renovating and expanding a 1970’s contemporary style prefab kit house. Three principal concerns drove the programming and design of the Project: To create comfortable and sufficient living quarters for the two families that own the dwelling together; to transform the aesthetic of the dated structure; and to create an energy-efficient and low-maintenance second home for the Clients. Among the changes made to achieve the Clients’ goals were: a new Entrance Vestibule with plenty of hanging space for coats, ample room for boots and shoes, and cubbies for accessories; a Ski and Board Locker Room; an additional Bedroom and Bathroom; an expanded Great Room / Kitchen; and enlarged bathrooms. New rooflines, traditional double-hung windows, and barn-red lap siding with board-and-batten detailing, brought about the metamorphosis of the dull, disheveled little house into a bright and happy vernacular Vermont home. Energy-efficient windows, a high-efficiency heat-circulating fireplace, energy-saving plumbing fixtures and appliances, and a double, “Galvalume” standing-seam metal roof with a high solar reflectance index were incorporated to significantly increase the energy-efficiency of the home. Finally, eaves were extended to protect siding and windows, and exterior and interior finishes were carefully selected to make this second home a low maintenance proposition for its owners.

Built for one of the most restrictive sites we've ever worked on, the Wolf-Huang Lake House will face the sunset views over Lake Orange. ​ Inspired by the architect's love of houseboats and trips to Amsterdam to visit them, this house has the feeling that it could indeed be launched right into the Lake to float along the banks. ​ Despite the incredibly limited allowable building area, we were able to get the Tom and Yiqing's building program to fit in just right. A generous living and dining room faces the beautiful water view with large sliding glass doors and picture windows. There are three comfortable bedrooms, withe the Main Bedroom and a luxurious bathroom also facing the lake. ​ We hope our clients will feel that this is like being on vacation all the time, except without crowded flights and long lines! ​ Buildsense was the General Contractor for this project.

The now dated 90s bath Katie spent her childhood splashing in underwent a full-scale renovation under her direction. The goal: Bring it down to the studs and make it new, without wiping away its roots. Details and materials were carefully selected to capitalize on the room’s architecture and to embrace the home’s traditional form. The result is a bathroom that feels like it should have been there from the start. Featured on HAVEN and in Rue Magazine Spring 2022.

his spectacular full home renovation was done on a townhome in Downtown Vancouver. During the home renovation, we removed the second bedroom’s closet to increase the room’s square footage. We then transformed the storage room into a dual purpose coat closet for the main entrance and a new walk-in closet for the second bedroom. In the bathrooms, we installed high-end fixtures from Kohler and Kallista, an overhead rain shower and handheld unit combo, custom high-gloss acrylic vanity cabinets, quartz countertops and backsplash, heated flooring with programmable thermostat control, LED pot lighting, custom fit and fabricated glass shower door and wall, and Italian high-end porcelain tiles throughout. The living room now features a panel ceiling with LED pot lighting and 3-way dimmable light switches. To add a touch of sophistication to the room, we included a luxury wall mounted electric fireplace. Our team completely transformed the kitchen from a typical ‘L’ shape design to a ‘flow-through’ design, complete with an island. We also updated the kitchen with custom cabinets, quartz countertops, a handmade Spanish tile backsplash, an induction cooktop, and LED pot lighting throughout. This townhome also features brand new wide plank engineered hardwood flooring, custom fabricated steps, and high-end appliances. The final stand-out feature of this home has to be the rooftop deck which is hard to come by in downtown Vancouver!

This detached accessory dwelling unit/garage combo was a labor of love by the homeowner to provide a place for family to comfortably live independently. Everyone involved is proud of the workmanship. This project was a part of the Residential Infill Pilot Program. Over 150 yards of dirt/mud was removed. Our mason successfully matched the brick to the main home. The vaulted ceiling and short wall give the living space an open feel. This project is a perfect example of a homeowner working with the government and the trades to achieve a new space that blends in with the neighborhood.
