The Elegant Sherman Oaks Bathroom Renovation was a dream project that allowed us to combine luxury with functionality. The homeowners wanted to upgrade their outdated bathroom into a spa-like retreat, drawing inspiration from modern elegance while incorporating traditional elements. We installed a freestanding soaking tub, a custom vanity with quartz countertops, and polished nickel fixtures to create a timeless aesthetic. Locally sourced tiles were used to craft a stunning walk-in shower with a frameless glass door, adding a touch of contemporary style while staying true to the Sherman Oaks vibe. Throughout the project, we worked closely with the homeowners, listening to their ideas and infusing personal touches, such as selecting the perfect soft blue color palette that reminds them of their favorite coastal vacations. Being based in Sherman Oaks ourselves, we took extra care to ensure this renovation would blend seamlessly with the home's character and the surrounding community. The result is a serene, elegant bathroom that has become the homeowners’ favorite room in the house.

In a quest to gain additional living space on this Santa Monica corner lot, an ADU proved to be the most effective solution. A second-story addition above the existing garage was carefully designed to blend seamlessly with the home’s original architectural character, resulting in a natural and cohesive extension. A small portion at the rear of the garage, previously used as a laundry area, was converted into a stairway leading to the upper level. Upstairs, the bathroom also functions as a laundry area, featuring a Jack-and-Jill layout that connects the shower space to both the hallway and the vanity/laundry zone. The shower area similarly connects to the vanity and the bedroom through a Jack-and-Jill configuration. Vaulted ceilings were a must, enhancing the sense of openness. The space is well insulated and finished with drywall throughout, creating a clean, minimalistic aesthetic across the living areas.

This Sammamish outdoor living project features a custom multi‑angle deck design paired with a vaulted roof cover built for year‑round use in the Pacific Northwest. The homeowners wanted a space that felt open, architectural, and protected from Sammamish’s frequent rain and shade—while blending seamlessly with the home’s existing structure. We designed and built a dual‑angle vaulted roof with exposed architectural elements, integrated soffits, and clean trim details to create a finished, modern look. The covered structure provides excellent weather protection while allowing natural light to filter in, making the space usable in every season. The deck was finished with TimberTech/Azek Dark Hickory, a premium PVC material ideal for moisture‑heavy environments like Sammamish. This low‑maintenance decking resists rot, mold, and fading, making it a long‑lasting solution for PNW homes surrounded by trees. Additional upgrades included: • Smart lighting integration for evening ambiance • Outdoor heating options for year‑round comfort • Powder‑coated aluminum railing for a modern, open feel • Improved waterproofing and flashing to protect the home’s exterior • Structural enhancements to support the vaulted cover and multi‑angle layout This project showcases how thoughtful design, premium materials, and proper construction practices can transform a shaded Sammamish backyard into a functional, beautiful outdoor living space.

This handcrafted Cherry record player stand was designed to bring together timeless craftsmanship, thoughtful organization, and a love for music. Built from solid USA-sourced Cherry hardwood, this custom vinyl record storage cabinet provides dedicated space for a turntable, vinyl record collection, Bluetooth speaker, and other listening essentials—all while serving as a beautiful furniture piece that complements the surrounding room.

Inspired by classic mid-century design, the cabinet features clean lines and tapered legs that pay homage to the golden era of vinyl without feeling dated. Purpose-built compartments keep records organized, the turntable easily accessible, and speakers neatly integrated, creating a dedicated listening station that's both practical and inviting.
