The renovated kitchen is in the exact same footprint as the original. Yet, it is now fresh, clean and romantically vintage in appeal while modern in approach. With the wall removed it extends into a fun, family and friend space to living and dining areas.

This couple came to us as newly transplanted homeowners in Sterling, MA, uprooted from Rochester, MA so they could be closer to their growing family and granddaughter. The former kitchen was a bit of a “Plain Jane”, but we transformed it into a charming, modern country farmhouse kitchen. The custom paint color on the cabinets came from a Wood-Mode sample called “Agate.” This lovely paint color is a chameleon, ranging from gray/green, to a beautiful blue hue depending on the lighting conditions. The uniqueness of this color is what caught the homeowner’s eye and it has become a customer favorite. This Sterling home is the perfect setting for such a beautiful color! As a trained chef and former restaurant owner, the husband does all the cooking in the house. Ample room was needed for prepping and serving, so he loves the long, wide peninsula. A full-height quartz backsplash behind the range and sink make for easy clean up. Very deep drawers flank both sides of the range, and the top drawer has special storage for spices. The cabinet over the refrigerator has vertical partitions for both cookie sheets, trays and pans. A tall pantry to the right of the refrigerator is equipped with heavy duty wood rollouts perfect for storing dry goods. Conveniently located to the right of the sink is a double trash cabinet. The end of the peninsula also has a 27” wide cabinet with dual rollouts storing small appliances, casserole dishes & Tupperware. The new space has plenty of room for prepping, cooking and entertaining family and guests in the adjacent dining room. Stepping outside the “white & gray” of common paints into this beautiful custom color has delighted these customers and their friends. We find it both inviting and soothing, a cool color that will be stylish for years to come!

Shingle Style Home featuring Bevolo Lighting. Perfect for a family, this shingle-style home offers ample play zones complemented by tucked-away areas. With the residence’s full scale only apparent from the back, Harrison Design’s concept optimizes water views. The living room connects with the open kitchen via the dining area, distinguished by its vaulted ceiling and expansive windows. An octagonal-shaped tower with a domed ceiling serves as an office and lounge. Much of the upstairs design is oriented toward the children, with a two-level recreation area, including an indoor climbing wall. A side wing offers a live-in suite for a nanny or grandparents.

This complete home renovation on East 24th Avenue in Vancouver transformed a dated family home into a bright, modern space with a warm and timeless character. Every room was thoughtfully redesigned from the ground up, balancing high-end finishes with livable, family-friendly function. Kitchen The heart of the home received a full transformation. Crisp white shaker cabinetry pairs beautifully with a sage-green zellige tile backsplash that wraps the entire perimeter, adding texture and warmth. A large centre island in soft grey offers generous prep space and seating for four, topped with a thick quartz countertop. Brushed brass dome pendants and matching hardware tie the space together with an elevated, cohesive look. Floating oak shelves add open storage and a natural contrast to the crisp cabinetry. Primary Ensuite A true spa retreat. Floor-to-ceiling handmade white tile surrounds a deep soaker tub lit by a skylight above, while a custom blush oak vanity with shaker-style drawers, quartz countertop, and brushed brass fixtures brings warmth and sophistication. Floating oak shelves echo the kitchen detailing throughout. Secondary Bathrooms Each bathroom was given its own distinct personality. One features a blush oak vanity with a statement sage pendant light fixture. Another showcases elongated picket tile in a soft blue-grey, floor to ceiling, paired with a quartz undermount sink and brushed gold faucet — a bold yet refined design choice. Entryway & Staircase Guests are welcomed by a completely reimagined open staircase featuring white oak treads, a matching handrail, and sleek white rod balusters — a stunning architectural focal point. Wide-plank light oak hardwood flooring flows throughout the main level, tying every space together seamlessly.

This stunning kitchen transformation proves that warm, earthy tones can be just as striking as classic white — and far more personal. The result is a sophisticated, chef-caliber space that feels layered, collected, and completely livable, with a color story rooted in nature and elevated by thoughtful material choices throughout. The perimeter cabinetry is finished in a rich warm greige — that perfect blend of gray and beige that feels both current and timeless — running floor to ceiling with generous crown molding detail and brushed brass bar pulls that catch the light beautifully. The custom range hood, painted to match and finished with elegant curved molding, anchors the cooking wall and creates an architectural focal point that draws the eye immediately upon entering the room. The central island makes a bold and confident design statement in a contrasting sage green, a color choice that bridges the warm cabinetry and cool marble-look quartz countertops with unexpected harmony. The island countertop — a striking Calacatta-style quartz with dramatic gold veining — extends across all perimeter surfaces, tying the entire kitchen together under one cohesive material story. A large white farmhouse apron-front sink sits within the island, paired with a brushed champagne bronze gooseneck faucet and matching pot filler above the range — hardware details that elevate the space from beautiful to truly bespoke. The backsplash deserves its own moment: a full-field installation of a tone-on-tone marble mosaic tile in soft white, warm gray, and hints of gold runs wall to wall and floor to ceiling behind the range — a shimmering, textural surface that catches the light throughout the day and gives the kitchen an almost jewel-box quality up close. Three oversized sage green dome pendant lights with brass interiors and gold rods hang above the island, echoing the island color and creating a perfectly coordinated, designer-curated look. The professional-grade Wolf dual-fuel range with signature red knobs commands the cooking wall — a statement appliance that signals serious culinary intent while adding a pop of bold color that energizes the otherwise soft palette. Panel-ready refrigerator cabinetry seamlessly integrates the appliance wall into the overall design, maintaining the clean, furniture-like quality of the custom cabinetry throughout. The remodel extends into the adjacent family room, where a full fireplace surround tiled in the same marble mosaic as the kitchen backsplash creates a cohesive design thread between the two spaces. A warm wood mantel, linen drapery, and a mix of cognac leather and cream upholstery complete a sitting area that feels like a natural, harmonious extension of the kitchen beyond.

This bathroom is magnificent beauty from the domed ceiling, bay window and view, and cabinetry. Accents were added to pull your eye to the window. See all the photos in this staging project.
