Chrome shower fixtures and bathroom accessories add a classic look throughout, while a natural teak root bath stool near the tub borrows from the warm wood finish of the vanities. Striking Farrow & Ball wallpaper creates bookend accent walls behind the tub and toilet. As light in the space changes throughout the day, the wallpaper’s subtle metallic pattern takes on changing tones — sometimes warm, sometimes cool — yet always perfectly matched to the serene blue wall paint. A machine-washable Chindi style fringed rug made from recycled denim softens the space, while cozy white bath towels add plush texture throughout.

A basement without a bathroom became an opportunity to create a relaxing retreat in this Seven Hills, Boulder home. As part of a larger basement conversion, we borrowed space from the attached garage to create extra room for a new bathroom centered around the homeowners’ must-have soaking tub. Blue tile, marble flooring, and a herringbone accent niche give the room its distinctive character. A built-in shower niche and glass-shelved alcove add practical storage and space for personal touches.

This beautiful riverside home was a joy to design! Our Aspen studio borrowed colors and tones from the beauty of the nature outside to recreate a peaceful sanctuary inside. We added cozy, comfortable furnishings so our clients can curl up with a drink while watching the river gushing by. The gorgeous home boasts large entryways with stone-clad walls, high ceilings, and a stunning bar counter, perfect for get-togethers with family and friends. Large living rooms and dining areas make this space fabulous for entertaining.

All aspects of the building are meticulously designed, specified, detailed, & crafted to be both stylistically appropriate and reflect building best practices. The materials palette of hand-molded brick, thick profile siding, exposed timber framing & rafters, double-hung windows, and operable louvered shutters is borrowed from the neighborhood's existing stock of mid-century craftsman ranch houses.

IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS.The contemporary Geode collection looks for inspiration to the timeless beauty of natural materials and the geometry of semi-precious crystals. The collection’s primary material is white oak, quarter sawn and cathedral sawn to emphasize the wood’s beautiful grain and cerused with a hint of gold. The wood is paired with stone, with tumbled metal and with smoked glass, and is complemented by textured fabrics in a rich array of tonal neutrals. With silhouettes that borrow from classic design and subtle geometric motifs that repeat throughout the collection, Geode offers a livable approach to contemporary that evokes earthy comfort without sacrificing elegance or sophistication.

This 1920’s bungalow in the Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood had great bones but was in serious need of an update. The space in the rear of the house – which included the master bedroom, kitchen, and rear entry – was jumbled and did not suit the new owner: a successful entrepreneur with modern sensibilities. We were tasked with re-configuring this part of the house and with removing out-of-character interior trim and replacing it with custom casings, baseboards, and moldings. During the course of the work, we discovered an old roof and cabinets which had been covered inside and a structurally unsound beam in the kitchen. The kitchen was demolished and built back fresh, new, modern, and a little larger. A new beam was engineered and hidden in the ceiling. The laundry was relocated to make way for a large master closet. Space was borrowed to enlarge the master bath and create a powder room off the kitchen. New electrical and lighting fixtures throughout were also a feature of the work.

Often times, the smallest of spaces prove to be the largest design challenge. Clients desire functional spaces which exude the lush, organic beauty they glimpse at spaces which tend to garner more of the press attention, which usually suggests they are greater in scale. In order for form and function to be joined in spiritual union, we can look to the context of the space in order to garner inspiration. Introducing curved containers into the garden not only minimizes the angular impact of the space and its surrounding vertical neighbors, but borrows from the ebb and flow of the river passing by to the west. The containers vary in height so as to provide an accented and unimpeded view from the inside to the outside. The lush plantings reflect some of the leafy residents of nearby Riverside Park as well as reinforcing the movement of the Hudson as the grasses sway in the breezes high above the street.

Today’s kitchen is a place that offers not only food for your stomach, but also “food for your eyes”. The owners of this residence, are sensitive to both of these functions. After the client’s approval to “borrow” a little space (24”D) from their garage was obtained, they received a new Mud Room combined with a “Green lab” for their bonsai-hobby, new entrance to the back yard and a bigger updated kitchen. The small appliances here work like decorative details. The big ones (i.e. 48” refrigerator) are concealed with panels. The contrast cabinet finishes, tile floor, wood ceiling with flashed LED lights converted this kitchen to an enjoyable entertainment space. Guests can rotate here around a custom designed granite island-bar.

This craftsman kitchen borrows natural elements from architect and design icon, Frank Lloyd Wright. A slate backsplash, soapstone counters, and wood cabinetry is a perfect throwback to midcentury design. What ties this kitchen to present day design are elements such as stainless steel appliances and smart and hidden storage. This kitchen takes advantage of every nook and cranny to provide extra storage for pantry items and cookware.
