Oakland, CA: Addition and remodel to a rustic ranch home. The existing house had lovely woodwork but was dark and enclosed. The house borders on a regional park and our clients wanted to open up the space to the expansive yard, to allow views, bring in light, and modernize the spaces. New wide exterior accordion doors, with a thin screen that pulls across the opening, connect inside to outside. We retained the existing exposed redwood rafters, and repeated the pattern in the new spaces, while adding lighter materials to brighten the spaces. We positioned exterior doors for views through the whole house. Ceilings were raised and doorways repositioned to make a complicated and closed-in layout simpler and more coherent.

Custom Media Cabinet by Komandor. It’s the small details that count in this media cabinet…the turquoise panel peppered in a couple of cubbies and the natural wood color fronts are the perfect touches to bring the color scheme in this room together. As the room opens up before us…we see how paying attention to these fine points can bring coherence and elevate this room to the next level.

We transformed this dated, cluttered Lakeview primary bathroom into a clean, inspiring space that makes you just want to either attack the workday or just lounge about on a lazy weekend morning. We fully gutted the space and relaid out portions of it to make it a more usable and inviting space. We removed an old unused jacuzzi that was acting as a laundry basket. We turned the shower alcove that was dark and small into an open storage area with floating shelves. We built a wide open spacious shower to take advantage of the bright, natural light from the skylight above. And we installed a single sink vanity with lots of counter space and an LED mirror above it for beautiful even lighting. With the new floating vanity, it gives the illusion of an even larger area due to more visible larger tiles underneath. Overall, it flows better and makes for a more coherent and bright space.

The renovations to this 50-storey half-level home in Mont-Royal include several interventions affecting the appearance of the building. While being part of a conceptual approach respectful of the material qualities, the original proportions of the building and its openings, our intervention rationalizes the distribution of the materials on the facades. The installation of a continuous stone wall above the windows of the ground floor all around the building separates the facades of the DRC with stone or brick from the new coating of anthracite gray fiber cement panels used on all upstairs. The modulation of the panels and the position of the joints aligning with the mullions of the new windows give a coherent and dynamic rhythm to these wall surfaces. The large eaves are highlighted by the replacement of the aluminum soffits with wooden boards dyed in the color of the new mahogany double entry door. A new steel entrance canopy with integrated lighting and a wooden ceiling such as the new soffits complete the sensitive and respectful modernization of the original characteristics of the house.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey

Bedroom - rustic bedroom idea in Denver

The dining room is entirely open to the gallery and a large open frame connects it to the study. One space leads from one to another in a coherent manner. In the windowed dining room, two pendant mounted fixtures are center over the dining table, suggesting a modern interpretation of traditional furniture arrangement.
