If “desert retro” could be translated as a design style, this MCM-inspired kitchen would be it. Our goal for these clients — a young couple who recently relocated to the Pittsburgh-area from Phoenix, AZ — was to bring a touch of the sunny Sonoran into their new home. This subdued, sun-bleached palette feels both vibrant and earthy. A dramatic, shifting landscape that comes alive with the day’s changing light.
Large format terrazzo tiles ground the space with muted, dusty green, ochre and amber. A nod to the tough skins of cacti, agave, and creosote bushes. A mixed finish glass tile backsplash adds pale yellow accents found in parched sand dunes. Three different cabinet finishes form our rocky canyons. Deep brown and clay purple hues like ancient cliff faces stained by manganese and iron oxide. Washed out skies reflecting warm white light. Golden brass details throughout gleam like the desert sun.
By removing a wall in between the kitchen and dining room, we were able to add a working peninsula and pull the range out of the corner. This change opened up the space, solving layout and storage puzzles for our clients — without making the kitchen feel cold or contemporary. Smooth, slab-style cabinet faces paired with streamlined appliances and fixtures keep things low maintenance.

This client’s vision for their kitchen/hearth room remodel was to create a harmonious space for gathering and socializing with family and friends. Without the before and after photos, you would scarcely believe this was the same home.

The client was interested in new appliance technology, cabinetry to the ceiling, and an Island large enough to seat 3. They also wanted a built-in breakfast nook, improved pantry space, more functional storage on either side of their fireplace, and a built-in appearance for the TV above the mantel. The original built-in desk was not used, and they preferred for that space to serve as a small bar area with refrigeration and a place to store their printer. We designed several plans for the space before selecting the final layout.
The new design required the removal of the soffit over the old sink, as well as a small wall beside the old refrigerator. The wall beside the stairwell had to be shortened 13 inches and a new beam installed to carry the load of the home’s 2nd story to gain enough space for the large central island. The existing closet pantry walls were also reconfigured as per the new plan.
This serves as a great reminder that Dimensions In Wood is much more than just custom cabinets.
Central to the entire custom kitchen is an 8-foot Walnut island. The huge island, which comfortably seats three, is topped with Essenza Blue quartzite. The stone’s natural striations are beautiful. Quartzite is harder than granite, and less likely to stain than other stones because of its density. The couple had to look through multiple slabs to find a piece they LOVED. The island’s custom Walnut cabinetry, built to resemble a piece of custom furniture, was stained Bronzed Walnut by Sherwin Williams.
The 4-foot Galley Workstation in the island, handles all the kitchen’s prep, serving, and cleanup needs. The Galley’s culinary tools include an upper tier cutting board, upper tier drying rack, 2 lower tier platforms, 11″ colander with non-slip handles, and 11” mixing bowl with lid and non-slip bottom. Learn more about the amazing Galley Workstation here. A Waterstone gantry faucet in a pewter finish combines a pull-down sprayer for maximum mobility and a articulated swivel spout. A water tap with reverse osmosis filter provides the highest quality drinking water. To keep a clean and sleek counter we installed a raised air switch for the garbage disposal and integrated soap dispenser. The island also houses the Thermador Sapphire 7-Program Dishwasher with a hidden touch control panel and a custom Walnut wood front. The cabinetry under the Galley Workstation features a trash roll out, as well as storage for the culinary tools.
Shortening the stairwell wall, and reframing around the stairs, which included shortening the handrail, also made room for a bi-fold door walk-in pantry with extra roll out storage and space for a small microwave. Above the panty doors is a remote controlled, electric motor powered, lift up cabinet door which hides a flat screen TV, used while the family is cooking.
To the right of the walk-in pantry is cold food storage. The Thermador, 30-inch Freedom Collection refrigerator and 24-inch built-in freezer column with internal ice maker are covered with matching cabinetry fronts. An open display space was designed above the units, creating an aesthetically beautiful wall. To the right of the refrigerator & freezer columns is a tall cabinet designed for the built-in Thermador steam and convection oven. The convention steam oven is a relatively new technology for homes, but its versatility and food quality is amazing. To the right of this is a pull-out appliance pantry which provides easy access and storage for a stand mixer, blender, and any other appliance you do not want to clutter the counter.
The most visible wall of the kitchen features the 36-inch Thermador Professional Series Harmony Gas Range with Griddle. Between the range and custom designed wood hood, a framed mosaic tile accent in the backsplash, creates a focal point. To clear the air, the Professional Series Thermador 42-inch ventilation insert provides excellent exhaust capabilities, as well as providing multi-level, vivid LED lights for beautiful illumination.
The wall cabinetry symmetrically flanks the custom hood, utilizing deeper wall cabinetry on each end, allowing for storage of oversized dishware. The base cabinetry on this wall is made up of drawers, except for the corner, which is a Kesseböhmer LeMans II. This specially designed shelf system allows ease of access in underutilized blind corners. The dual action articulation system with soft close mechanism ensures a smooth open and close.
Rounding the corner to the outside wall, the base cabinetry was built to a narrower depth, providing additional space for the island, as well as easier access to the new larger pass-thru window which serves the screen porch. The client selected Black Vermont granite countertops with an ogee edge to contrast the Linen White painted cabinetry.
The door to the screen porch was replaced with a Marvin Exterior Door with a raised panel at the bottom of the 3⁄4 glass door.
Marvin Windows replaced the other windows in the space increasing the energy efficiency and value of the home. To establish the breakfast nook, a bench with drawers and an upholstered seat was built into the bay area of the room.
Custom bookshelves were built with open shelves, cabinet doors, and drawers on either side of the fireplace. A new stone hearth and fireplace surround were installed. Above the existing mantel we built a recessed space for the flat screen television hiding all wiring inside the walls for a completely clean look.
The space that was once a desk was transformed into a bar area. The glass shelves and glass cabinet front liquor cabinet stand out. But this bar area has hidden secrets. Tucked beneath the black granite is a Thermador under-counter double drawer refrigerator with matching wood front panels. They blend in perfectly with the cabinets. A wireless printer is easily accessed on a slide out drawer. Plus, what looks like merely wooden panels on the wall are concealing recessed storage for more bottles and glasses!
Overhead recessed lighting and speaker system provide illumination and entertainment through the entire space.
This luxury home had original, solid oak flooring through most of the first floor which the homeowner obviously wanted to keep but were in desperate need of repair and refinishing. Our master craftsmen wove in new wood flooring to match the old where needed, particularly where walls had been changed and where the floor was damaged. We sanded the floors, smoothing away years of wear and tear. The entire wood floor was then uniformly stained, making it impossible to differentiate where any repairs were made.

This bespoke, modern floor to ceiling media entertainment unit features made to
measure cupboards, drawers, TV cavity and open shelving. The fully fitted, custom-
built cabinets and shelving unit maximise and streamline the space and act as a focal
point in the room. The design has been tailored to accommodate all the household’s
entertainment needs with a mix of display niches and closed storage to keep clutter
and cables out of sight. The result is a seamless, integrated media unit that makes
our client’s living room highly functional and attractive.
Contemporary style, traditional construction
The handcrafted cabinetry features flat-faced streamline doors and drawer fronts.
Flat-faced cupboard doors, often called slab doors or flat panel doors, are single-
surface doors with no frames, bevels, or detailing for a clean, minimalist look. The
doors are fitted with concealed soft closing hinges and drawers are mounted on fully
extending concealed soft closing drawer slides.
The solidly fixed, square-edged, thick engineered shelves and uprights with a 42mm
visual front edge have exceptional strength, stability and a bold, chunky, consistent
aesthetic.
Beautifully finished for a high-end look
The cabinets feature knurled pull handles and knobs with a dark brushed brass
finish. The textured pattern of knurled hardware has a tactile feel and provides a
superior grip while hiding fingerprints. Knurled knobs and handles like these here
work well with modern cabinets, flat-panel doors and slab drawers and create a
high-end, detailed appearance.
The entire media unit has been flawlessly finished in an eco-friendly, water-based,
handcrafted paint from Farrow & Ball in Dimity No. 2008, a very pale taupe that is a
sophisticated, warm neutral. The surface has a beautiful, wipeable matt finish that is
exceptionally durable. This pale taupe colour creates a ‘quiet luxury’ look without the
harshness of pure white. While stark white can often feel cold or clinical, this very
light taupe is inherently warmer and more comforting, making the living room feel
instantly settled and inviting.

A mix of contemporary, modern, and mid century design. Natural wood finishes with simple countertop surfaces and stainless steel appliances. Light, open, and clean feel. Elmwood frameless cabinetry. All wood construction cabinets in Walnut with a natural finish. The countertop on the perimeter is Dekton in Zenith with a honed finish. The island is Neolith in Estatuario Silk. Both countertops have a mitered edge finish. The rangetop is a Wolf 48" gas range. The dishwasher is by bosch and this kitchen has two of them. The refrigerator and freezer are Subzero 36" built-in units placed next to each other to make one big component. The hood is by Best and is a 48" Island Hood called Gorgona. The microwave is a microwave drawer by Wolf and is 24". The double oven and the warming drawer are lined up vertically and all 30" by Wolf. The wine refrigerator is an under counter 24" by Subzero. The main sink is Oliveri 33" x 21" single bowl apron sink. There is an instant hot and an instant cold faucet, both by WaterINC. The island sink is by Franke and in the Peak Series. The island sink faucet is by KWC and is a single pull down faucet. The pendant lights over the island are by Niche and are the Modern Stamen Pendants in Smoke. The backsplash is 12" x 12" Koshi tile, with a blend between light grey and white. The wall and ceiling paint colors are by Benjamin Moore and are Chantilly Lace. The trim paint color is Swiss Coffee by Kelly Moore. All of the cabinet hardware is by Atlas Homewares. The flooring throughout the great room is by Boen and is a Oak Traditional in Chaletino.

A young chef wanted this kitchen to be modern, fully functional, innovative and cool. A little industrial meets a lot contemporary, meets warm wood and cold quartz.
As one wall came down, we did our best to create an island, but with the narrow space, it truly made no sense. So to save as much counter space as we could, yet be able to seat as many people as possible, we created a walnut topped peninsula with a waterfall drop leaf. The leaf lifts up, to reveal a waterfall that matches the rest of the kitchen. It was one of the most difficult things we have ever done, as the leaf and counter are solid walnut and very heavy. A hidden leg helps to bear the weight when the leaf is opened up.
The rest of this main floor, open to the kitchen, boasts many modern design elemends, such as sleek, curved furnishings, and fun lighting fixtures.
A deature wall in the living area houses a tv and is clad in a custom tile and walnut design. Just look at how they dealt with the air return on the wall! This project was a total renovation from basement to upper level, a total of four floors, with the goal of really outdoing ourselves for this young client.

This bespoke, modern floor to ceiling media entertainment unit features made to
measure cupboards, drawers, TV cavity and open shelving. The fully fitted, custom-

surface doors with no frames, bevels, or detailing for a clean, minimalist look. The
doors are fitted with concealed soft closing hinges and drawers are mounted on fully
extending concealed soft closing drawer slides.
The solidly fixed, square-edged, thick engineered shelves and uprights with a 42mm
visual front edge have exceptional strength, stability and a bold, chunky, consistent
aesthetic.
Beautifully finished for a high-end look
The cabinets feature knurled pull handles and knobs with a dark brushed brass
finish. The textured pattern of knurled hardware has a tactile feel and provides a
superior grip while hiding fingerprints. Knurled knobs and handles like these here
work well with modern cabinets, flat-panel doors and slab drawers and create a
high-end, detailed appearance.
The entire media unit has been flawlessly finished in an eco-friendly, water-based,
handcrafted paint from Farrow & Ball in Dimity No. 2008, a very pale taupe that is a
sophisticated, warm neutral. The surface has a beautiful, wipeable matt finish that is
exceptionally durable. This pale taupe colour creates a ‘quiet luxury’ look without the
harshness of pure white. While stark white can often feel cold or clinical, this very
light taupe is inherently warmer and more comforting, making the living room feel
instantly settled and inviting.

Structural Remodeling
Franklin County's Heavy Timber Specialists | Best of Houzz 2020!

123 Remodeling crew and our in-house interior designer Jenna Rose completely renovated this large kitchen in Skokie, Illinois. Our team created a fresh and modern space to cook and gather with family and friends over a large dining table.
We started with structural changes and demolished a load-bearing wall between the kitchen and dining area to create an open concept. Then we built a massive Carrera marble quartz island that is as functional as luxurious looking with a built-in wine cooler, dishwasher, and microwave. Three stylish pendant lights and a dozen of recessed can lights make the room feel larger and brighter. We opted-in for a counter-depth stainless sub-zero refrigerator and encased it with a custom-made cabinet extension.
While white is traditional and the most popular color for kitchens, it's easy for such a room to look stark and cold. So our designer mixed glossy white cabinets with gray backsplash tiles and white-gray countertops. We also intermixed it with the natural oak shelves and plant decor to add warm contrasting elements.
The open kitchen concept looks good only if all parts of the space are visually appealing - that's why we remodeled the fireplace, refinished the chimney, and enclosed it in concrete.

This project was all about adding life and colour to a new build home. Our clients love things colourful, they were feeling drained and uninspired by the builders white walls and grey carpets.
Taking inspiration from some of their artwork, we added a deep reddish pink to the walls, ceiling and woodwork, a custom mix by Little Greene, to add life to the pool room which was flat, cold and unwelcoming. In addition to the paint we added drinks shelves, a new cue rack and an upholstered pelmet with integrated uplighting to light the exposed beams and add some drama to the space.
The lounge originally had an inglenook fireplace and felt a little dated, so we added a media wall with built-in 3-sided fire. Taking inspiration from the existing Little Green Ormond Street wallpaper, we used pinks, oranges and blues to tie the room together.
The open plan space, light and bright, painted in Portland Stone, needed a casual but compact daytime seating area. We again used colour inspiration from our clients collection of artwork for the colour scheme and designed a fully bespoke curved sofa to soften the angular shape of the room.
We painted the hallway in Putti, a dark green/grey to add depth and interest when you enter the house. Using a crucial trading stripy stair carpet to add pops of colours from the adjoining rooms to tie it all together.

Featuring a delightful mix of serene outdoor rooms centered around a custom pool with raised spa,
the site comfortably accommodates the young family’s entertainment and recreation needs.
The timber frame pavilion includes a brick fireplace with ample firewood storage beneath, large bluestone hearth, and a high-definition smart monitor above the timber mantle. An outdoor kitchen with bar seating uses construction materials that mimic the adjacent pavilion. On the upper level, the fire pit terrace is framed by custom arbors that capture sweeping views of the natural setting. A private, hot- and cold-water shower with changing room is convenient when returning from the beach or washing up after using the secluded axe yard. Lush plantings are installed for seasonal variety and color. Carefully placed furnishings, site lighting, and outdoor audio accentuate the experience.
Balancing the cut and fill of the topography in the backyard while minimizing grading impacts, the wooded pool space respectfully embraces its surroundings and compliments the architectural character of the existing residence.

Vintage-inspired textiles mix with warm wood tones and breezy rattan elements. Oversized plants and layered textiles create a lush, cozy escape for reading, lounging, or entertaining. A modern fireplace and colorful artwork remind you of European vacations, while natural light pours in to highlight every curated detail. Sliding track window draperies are there to create shade during the day and keep the cold out in the winter.
