Designed this backyard sauna for a client who was knowledgeable about sauna and had an idea of what he wanted. The goal was an energy efficient sauna that maintained privacy from neighbors but still had some views of nature/good lighting. 7.5' x 7.5'. Went with 8 foot ceilings - which made the overall structure a bit tall aesthetically - but this allowed a higher bench system. The harvia cilindro 8kw stove may be a bit undersized but the tall bench height seems to compensate for the stove (heat up times are a bit long). Drain in the floor which allows you to dump lots of water on the stove. With 200lbs of stones, the loyly is quite impressive and intense! The force from the steam necessitated some additional magnets to keep the door closed.

Our kitchen underwent a complete transformation, starting with a full gut renovation. By removing the wall between the kitchen and living room, we created an open-concept space that feels both expansive and welcoming. To compensate for the lost cabinetry, we installed a large island with waterfall quartz edges, serving as both a functional workspace and a stunning centerpiece. The new Euro-style flat-front cabinets, crafted from rift-sawn Oak, feature a tight wood grain for a sleek, contemporary look. To pay homage to the home's 1970s roots, we incorporated avocado green lower cabinets, adding a nostalgic yet stylish touch. This blend of modern and retro elements has revitalized the kitchen, making it a beautiful and functional heart of our home.

The double obscured glass door lead to the pantry. This are had an un-used fireplace chase built into the original house. We decided to put the space the use when the kitchen was relocated to this area. A great addition to this home. Note that the island has cabinets on both sides which compensates well here for the shortage of wall hung cabinets in a kitchen with only one available wall.

Today’s investment landscape in California features a surge in transforming single-family lots into vibrant multi-family residences, facilitated by recent SB9 and ADU laws. This project exemplifies how a modest 6,750-square-foot lot can accommodate a 1,500-square-foot primary home alongside a 2,500-square-foot duplex, seamlessly integrating design, functionality, and neighborhood aesthetics. The primary residence underwent a meticulous interior transformation, evolving from a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath layout into a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home. Strategic reconfigurations centered around creating an expansive great room—an open-concept space adorned with vaulted ceilings—where the kitchen, dining, and living areas converge into a magnificent communal zone. Exterior updates further distinguish the property. The front and side yards are enclosed with fencing and privacy hedges, linked by concrete pathways that enhance outdoor functionality while compensating for backyard space lost during renovations. The exterior façade was refreshed with darker tones, deliberately contrasting with the duplex to emphasize architectural separation. Designed to preserve the suburban charm, the duplex visually mimics a single-family home from the street. Its facade creates an illusion of a two-story residence, maintaining harmony within the neighborhood fabric. The main unit, developed under SB9 guidelines, features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a luxurious parents’ suite situated upstairs. Downstairs, two bedrooms share a full bath, creating a balanced family-oriented layout. The duplex’s interior boasts 9-foot ceilings throughout, elevating the sense of space and openness. The design thoughtfully places the kitchen at the front, inviting guests into the home, while stairs on the right lead to the private upstairs bedroom suite. The ADU offers a two bedroom and two & half baths. the unit is accessible via a private side entrance with a dedicated walkway. Its layout includes a ground-floor living room, a galley kitchen, and a discreet powder room beneath the stairs, designed to contain guest traffic and maintain privacy upstairs. The upstairs bedrooms each feature luxurious bathrooms with expansive showers, adding an element of modern elegance. Both units enjoy thoughtfully landscaped outdoor spaces—private patios, backyard areas, and gated front yards—creating welcoming environments for residents and visitors alike. This project exemplifies innovative urban infill solutions, blending architectural elegance with legal compliance and community harmony—an inspiring blueprint for the future of residential development in California.
