In this home remodel project, we worked together with our clients to create a modern coastal home design that incorporates natural elements with clean lines and functionality. The home now features an open space layout that exudes simplicity and formality, while also being casually elegant and relaxed. The home already had the foundation of a modern coastal home, however, there were some things that needed to be removed, such as a wall dividing the living room and the kitchen, and things that needed to be updated, such as the floors and the cabinetry. Overall, the remodeled home is all about being fresh, put-together, and welcoming. The subdued color palette is mostly composed of creamy whites, neutral browns, and subtle grays, with a pop of blue here and there to tie the whole modern coastal look together. The bare walls and ceilings, and the crisp and clean lines, make the space airy and contemporary. Meanwhile, traditional wood elements and a few bohemian decors acting as accent pieces infuse a cozy feeling to the space.

A striking downstairs WC defined by its bold checkerboard floor in deep red and crisp white — a playful yet sophisticated nod to classic patterning. The rich red tone brings warmth and drama, while the white tiles keep the space fresh and balanced. Together, they create a dynamic foundation that instantly elevates this compact room. The walls are covered in a luxurious textured wallpaper, wrapping the space in a cocooning, intimate atmosphere. Clean modern fixtures and subtle metallic accents ensure the room feels polished rather than nostalgic, allowing the checkerboard pattern to take centre stage. Thoughtful lighting softens the contrast and adds a warm glow that enhances the richness of the palette. This WC proves that small spaces can be unforgettable when colour, pattern, and detail are handled with confidence.

This client loves beautiful furniture but equally loves to remain within her budget. She often shops clearance but will easily merge custom pieces into her space to complete the look. She has a collection of random treasures and we incorporated them into the design of the room. Her design style is modern with a global and timeless touch. Her colors choices are greys and neutrals. With this family room, the inspiration came from an Ethan Allen brochure image. She wanted to achieve the same concept, but more modern perspective. A clearance Conway sectional, is the foundation of the space and an assortment of custom pieces were added to finish the design. This client purchases in phases, and with her patience is key. Over 12 months of working together, we created the family room of her dreams. As designer, my job is to deliver no matter the circumstance. I love this room because it represents just that.

Unlike our typical remodeling projects, this home was practically brand new—just a year old when we began. The simple finished basement, a blank canvas with its stark white walls and soaring 10' ceilings, became the foundation for an ambitious design. Inspired by the grandeur of a luxury Art Deco bar atop a New York City high rise, our clients envisioned a sophisticated, glamorous space. While no structural changes were needed, the real artistry came through in the meticulous selection and combination of finishes. Every material, color, and detail was chosen to capture the essence of timeless elegance and transform the basement into a show-stopping retreat.

This project began with over-sized, dated furniture and dark walls, so I knew I wanted to lighten up the spaces to flow with the rest of the house. I started by using my client's existing Asian cabinet from her travels as my source of inspiration. A foundation of a crisp green paint, and layering in lots of textured neutrals and modern accents, this space has been totally transformed.

In this compact Houston yard, we created a relaxing outdoor retreat with thoughtful design and custom features. The focal point is a stamped concrete patio, which provides a stylish and durable foundation for gatherings. A serene water feature with a river rock basin, hand-selected by the client, adds soothing sounds and natural beauty to the space. Landscape lighting enhances the ambiance, illuminating key elements and extending the enjoyment into the evening. We also installed an A/C screen and storage. The landscape is softened with native plants, creating a green, eco-friendly solution that blends seamlessly with the surroundings. This project shows how a small yard can feel both functional and expansive.

Nestled in an undeveloped thicket between two homes on Monmouth road, the Eastern corner of this client’s lot plunges ten feet downward into a city-designated stormwater collection ravine. Our client challenged us to design a home, referencing the Scandinavian modern style, that would account for this lot’s unique terrain and vegetation. Through iterative design, we produced four house forms angled to allow rainwater to naturally flow off of the roof and into a gravel-lined runoff area that drains into the ravine. Completely foregoing downspouts and gutters, the chosen design reflects the site’s topography, its mass changing in concert with the slope of the land. This two-story home is oriented around a central stacked staircase that descends into the basement and ascends to a second floor master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The main entrance—a triangular form subtracted from this home’s rectangular plan—opens to a kitchen and living space anchored with an oversized kitchen island. On the far side of the living space, a solid void form projects towards the backyard, referencing the entryway without mirroring it. Ground floor amenities include a bedroom, full bathroom, laundry area, office and attached garage. Among Architecture Office’s most conceptually rigorous projects, exterior windows are isolated to opportunities where natural light and a connection to the outdoors is desired. The Monmouth home is clad in black corrugated metal, its exposed foundations extending from the earth to highlight its form.

The homeowners inherited a patio that was poorly constructed by another contractor and was in desperate need of a complete makeover. The goal was to create an entertainment space that was both beautiful and highly functional. Our clients really preferred the look and feel of natural stone, opposed to paver stone so we selected natural cleft Bluestone for the patio surface and chose a natural stone veneer for both the new seating walls and outdoor kitchen. A beautiful granite slab that was bursting with color and unbelievable veining was chosen for the kitchen countertop. The foundation wall of the home was also redone in the same natural stone veneer to really tie everything together.

Sunday, June 28, 3:30 to 5:00pm | Potomac, MD Family Retreat by Lila Fendrick and Doug Stookey of Lila Fendrick Landscape Architecture and Garden Design The landscape architects incorporated an adjoining lot to create this delightful family retreat where the clients spend time with their two sons growing vegetables, swimming, playing in splash pools, soaking in the hot tub, hiding in a below-grade fort, and running through a maze of paths formed by towering shrubs. The height differential between the owner’s house and the crest of the new lot presented opportunities for linking the two lots. The landscape architect designed dramatic lawn steps up to the new pool and pool house complex, designing tiers of waterfalls around a sunken spa, terracing the site with playfully hidden paths, and concealing a lower level parking area and garage. The project uses locally sourced Western Maryland stone on the pool house/guest house and Delaware River Jacks for the pebble paving. Utah-sourced quartzite-sandstone boulders reflect the clients’ appreciation for rugged western American landscapes. The variety of materials, linked by color and texture, and the unusual programming create a place of retreat and fun that feels far from the typical Washington, DC, area backyard.

This formal dining room was in desperate need of an overall design plan. Our client wanted something unique and special. A round live edge dining table with a custom designed metal base was the foundation of the design. We were able to show our client the 3D concept renderings which enabled them to see the full vision of the room…sparking their love for the overall design. Beautiful gold upholstered chairs with acrylic legs surround the dining table. Acrylic accents continue in the drapery hardware, chandelier and buffet lamps to provide a soft modern feel. Original custom art pieces are the finishing touches for this luxurious space. This sleek formal dining room was photographed by Michael Hunter Photography

This South Shore of Boston client approached the team of Renovisions to remodel her existing basement bathroom. This bath, with an outdated fiberglass shower stall was cracked and leaking into the concrete floor below. The room had inadequate storage, was dark and did not boost this home’s overall market value. It was definitely time for a Renovision and the client was excited to get started! She was looking forward to sharing the new space with guests that stay at her home and use the bathroom often. Working alongside this client was fun and productive as great design and product choices were selected together. In the design process, Renovisions presented a unique idea; using the basement foundation ledge for a shelf that ran into the shower area, gaining extra space for shampoos and soaps, eliminating the need for a niche. Another great idea was to implement a Grohe Smart Control valve which brings this shower experience to another level; they can choose ways to spray with the right degree of warmth. The stunning stream-lined shower trims in brushed nickel finish match the style and finish on the single-lever vanity faucet. The contrasting dark grey, large format porcelain floor tile’s texture resembles a linen-look pattern the client requested while complimenting the darker veining in the quartz curb, shelf and vanity countertop. The Carrera-look porcelain shower wall tiles boast no-maintenance and provides a clean, brighter appeal seen through the beautiful custom shower glass enclosure. We lightened up the bath with a light blue paint color which added a fresh look, giving the illusion of a bigger space. As you can see, with the right colors, textures and accessories, we transformed this basement bath from Drab to Fab. The client was thrilled with her basement Renovision, a true Breath of Fresh Flair’!
