Cabinetry features inset door profiles, traditional detailing, and a tailored, furniture-like finish. Sleek hardware provides a modern complement while maintaining the timeless character of the space. The split island design adds visual rhythm and movement, preventing the layout from feeling monolithic and improving flow around key work zones. The mirrored pantry wall visually expands the room and reflects natural light, making the space feel larger and more open.

Detail at beamed ceiling: Set in a remote district just outside Halfway, Oregon, this working ranch required a water reserve for fire fighting for the newly constructed ranch house. This pragmatic requirement was the catalyst for the unique design approach — having the water reserve serve a dual purpose: fitness and firefighting. Borrowing from the surrounding landscape, two masses — one gabled mass and one shed form — are skewed to each other, recalling the layered hills that surround the home. Internally, the two masses give way to an open, unencumbered space. The use of wood timbers, so fitting for this setting, forms the rhythm to the design, with glass infill opening the space to the surrounding landscape. The calm blue pool brings all of these elements together, serving as a complement to the green prairie in summer and the snow-covered hills in winter.

Tucked into a forested retreat, this bathroom remodel masterfully balances warmth and sophistication with its seamless blend of natural textures and modern design. Vertical wood slats wrap the walls in organic rhythm, while the striking black marble accent wall adds bold contrast behind dual arched mirrors. A sculptural soaking tub is perfectly placed beneath expansive windows, inviting the outdoors in, while a glass-framed shower transforms daily routine into a spa like ritual. Custom cabinetry in rich wood tones grounds the space with timeless elegance, complemented by matte black fixtures for a sleek, contemporary edge. Every detail, from the floating wood shelf to the curated greenery, works in harmony to create a sanctuary that feels both grounded and indulgent.

Set high in the hills of Sherman Oaks, this creative patio enclosure takes full advantage of Tesselle’s small-format breeze blocks to blend structure with style. The homeowner opted for a mix of geometric patterns in white and grey, creating a dynamic border wall that adds character without overwhelming the natural surroundings. Mounted atop a smooth concrete base, the breeze blocks offer subtle privacy while allowing light and air to pass freely—ideal for Southern California’s climate. The varied designs introduce visual rhythm, complementing both the home’s mid-century roofline and the lush hillside garden below. This installation shows how breeze blocks can do more than separate spaces—they can define them with detail, texture, and thoughtful design.
