Perched in the foothills of Edna Valley, this single family residence was designed to fulfill the clients’ desire for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Much of the program and architectural forms were driven by the picturesque views of Edna Valley vineyards, visible from every room in the house. Ample amounts of glazing brighten the interior of the home, while framing the classic Central California landscape. Large pocketing sliding doors disappear when open, to effortlessly blend the main interior living spaces with the outdoor patios. The stone spine wall runs from the exterior through the home, housing two different fireplaces that can be enjoyed indoors and out. Because the clients work from home, the plan was outfitted with two offices that provide bright and calm work spaces separate from the main living area. The interior of the home features a floating glass stair, a glass entry tower and two master decks outfitted with a hot tub and outdoor shower. Through working closely with the landscape architect, this rather contemporary home blends into the site to maximize the beauty of the surrounding rural area.

This modern swimming pool is perfect for the small backyard and blends seamlessly with the outdoor living area. The pool features a back wall that is all tile with an elegant spillway that goes from the wall into the pool. The sleek design is finished with tile that surrounds the pool and is the same for the rest of the outdoor living area. The landscape surrounding the yard gives privacy from neighbors.

Modern refinement meets timeless garden charm. Cozy fireplace gatherings, peaceful moments in the private spa, and leisurely strolls through lush greenery. A rolled-mat spa cover allows modern steel to blend seamlessly with traditional brick. Stone pavers merge entertainment spaces, while sleek low-voltage lighting adds a sophisticated glow, perfect for quiet contemplation or lively conversation.

Remodel-Kitchen & Family Room: Quiet Luxury with a Natural Palette This remodel reimagines the heart of the home by seamlessly integrating the kitchen and family room into a refined yet inviting open-concept space, grounded in a “quiet luxury” aesthetic and a natural palette. Kitchen Transformation: The kitchen layout is completely reworked for improved flow and functionality. Major appliances have been reassigned for efficiency: • The refrigerator is built in and anchors the focal wall providing improved access to both prep and serving areas. • The range has been centered on the back wall, framed by two- toned cabinetry and a low-profile custom hood accented with brass that blends seamlessly into the wall for an understated look. • The dishwasher and sink have been relocated to the new central island, allowing for uninterrupted views across the room and better interaction with guests or family. At the heart of the space is a large central island, topped with Taj Mahal quartzite in soft beige and taupe tones. The island serves as a multi-functional hub. The cabinetry is custom-built in white oak, finished in a matte clear coat that highlights the wood’s natural grain. Hardware is kept minimal, in brushed brass for a touch of subdued elegance. Natural Palette & Materials: The entire space embraces a natural color scheme—warm whites, layered pastel beiges and natural wood tones—accented with natural stone. Leathered Taj Mahal backsplash with subtle texture adds quiet visual interest without overpowering the calm atmosphere. Family Room Integration: The kitchen flows effortlessly into the family room, unified by wide-plank oak flooring and soft lighting. A fluted marble-clad fireplace anchors the space, surrounded by, built-in shelving with the same oak finish inside as the kitchen cabinetry. Furnishings follow the same philosophy: clean lines, neutral fabrics, and a mix of soft textures. Think boucle armchairs, a deep linen sectional, and a reclaimed wood coffee table. Lighting & Finishing Touches: Soft, layered lighting—including recessed lights, sculptural clear pendant lights above the island, and concealed LED strips—enhances the serene mood.

Completed in 2018, this ranch house mixes midcentury modern design and luxurious retreat for a busy professional couple. The clients are especially attracted to geometrical shapes so we incorporated clean lines throughout the space. The palette was influenced by saddle leather, navy textiles, marble surfaces, and brass accents throughout. The goal was to create a clean yet warm space that pays homage to the mid-century style of this renovated home in Bull Creek.

Gorgeous sunroom addition with painted brick piers, large full view windows with transoms, chandelier, wall sconces, eclectic seating and potted plants creates the perfect setting to rest, relax and enjoy the view. The bright, open, airy sunroom space with traditional details and classic style blends seamlessly with the charm and character of the existing home.

From this angle, the spacious walk-in shower takes center stage, framed by frameless glass that preserves sightlines and allows the beauty of the marble tile to shine. Each tile was carefully placed to create a harmonious flow, with subtle veining that adds depth and dimension. The glass entry door, paired with chrome hardware, enhances the modern-transitional style of the space. By removing visual barriers, the design creates a feeling of openness that blends seamlessly with the rest of the bathroom. This shower isn't just about looks — it's designed for performance. The placement of fixtures, the slope of the floor, and the waterproofing system ensure a spa-quality experience for years to come, proving that true luxury lies in the marriage of form and function.

This project presented unique opportunities that are not often found in residential landscaping. The homeowners were not only restoring their 1840's era farmhouse, a piece of their family’s history, but also enlarging and updating the home for modern living. The landscape designers continued this idea by creating a space that is a modern day interpretation of an 1840s era farm rather then a strict recreation. The resulting design combines elements of farm living from that time, as well as acknowledging the property’s history as a horse farm, with staples of 21st century landscapes such as space for outdoor living, lighting, and newer plant varieties. Guests approach from the main driveway which winds through the property and ends at the main barn. There is secondary gated driveway just for the homeowners. Connected to this main driveway is a narrower gravel lane which leads directly to the residence. The lane passes near fruit trees planted in broken rows to give the illusion that they are the remains of an orchard that once existed on the site. The lane widens at the entrance to the gardens where there is a hitching post built into the fence that surrounds the gardens and a watering trough. The widened section is intended as a place to park a golf cart or, in a nod to the home’s past, tie up horses before entering. The gravel lane passes between two stone pillars and then ends at a square gravel court edged in cobblestones. The gravel court transitions into a wide flagstone walk bordered with yew hedges and lavender leading to the front door. Directly to the right, upon entering the gravel court, is located a gravel and cobblestone edged walk leading to a secondary entrance into the residence. The walk is gated where it connects with the gravel court to close it off so as not to confuse visitors and guests to the main residence and to emphasize the primary entrance. An area for a bench is provided along this walk to encourage stopping to view and enjoy the gardens. On either side of the front door, gravel and cobblestone walks branch off into the garden spaces. The one on the right leads to a flagstone with cobblestone border patio space. Since the home has no designated backyard like most modern suburban homes the outdoor living space had to be placed in what would traditionally be thought of as the front of the house. The patio is separated from the entrance walk by the yew hedge and further enclosed by three Amelanchiers and a variety of plantings including modern cultivars of old fashioned plants such as Itea and Hydrangea. A third entrance, the original front door to the 1840’s era section, connects to the patio from the home’s kitchen, making the space ideal for outdoor dining. The gravel and cobblestone walk branching off to the left of the front door leads to the vegetable and perennial gardens. The idea for the vegetable garden was to recreate the tradition of a kitchen garden which would have been planted close to the residence for easy access. The vegetable garden is surrounded by mixed perennial beds along the inside of the wood picket fence which surrounds the entire garden space. Another area designated for a bench is provided here to encourage stopping and viewing. The home’s original smokehouse, completely restored and used as a garden shed, provides a strong architectural focal point to the vegetable garden. Behind the smokehouse is planted lilacs and other plants to give mass and balance to the corner and help screen the garden from the neighboring subdivision. At the rear corner of the garden a wood arbor was constructed to provide a structure on which to grow grapes or other vines should the homeowners choose to. The landscape and gardens for this restored farmhouse and property are a thoughtfully designed and planned recreation of a historic landscape reinterpreted for modern living. The idea was to give a sense of timelessness when walking through the gardens as if they had been there for years but had possibly been updated and rejuvenated as lifestyles changed. The attention to materials and craftsmanship blend seamlessly with the residence and insure the gardens and landscape remain an integral part of the property. The farm has been in the homeowner’s family for many years and they are thrilled at the results and happy to see respect given to the home’s history and to its meticulous restoration.

This family room is a stunning blend of modern farmhouse charm and contemporary elegance. The focal point of the room is the vaulted ceiling, accentuated by exposed natural wood beams, which adds warmth and a rustic touch to the otherwise bright and airy space. A large, candle-style black wagon wheel chandelier hangs from the ceiling, drawing the eye upward and providing a bold contrast to the light tones throughout the room. At the center of the room is a cozy seating area, featuring an oversized modern white sectional sofa with a natural wood base, creating a soft, inviting space for relaxation. The furnishings are grounded by a neutral area rug that blends seamlessly with the light wood flooring, maintaining a harmonious, cohesive feel. The fireplace serves as the architectural centerpiece of the room, framed by white shiplap paneling that extends up to the ceiling. A natural wood mantel adds warmth and texture, complementing the beams above. Above the fireplace, a mounted TV offers modern convenience without detracting from the room’s aesthetic. Natural light pours in through large black-framed windows, further enhancing the connection between the interior and the outdoors. The mid-century modern leather lounge chair, positioned next to the fireplace, provides a stylish seating option, paired with a modern floor lamp and a small side table that brings in both function and design. The use of natural materials, such as wood and leather, alongside the clean lines and modern fixtures, creates a perfect balance between rustic and contemporary elements, making this great room an inviting and stylish space for gathering.
