Our design vision was to create a home that was one of a kind, and fit each and every need of the client. We created an open floor plan on the first floor with 10 ft ceilings and expansive views out to the main floor balcony. The first floor also features a primary suite, also referred to as “the apartment” where our homeowners have a primary bath, walk-in closet, coffee bar and laundry room. The primary bedroom includes a vaulted ceiling with direct access to the outside deck and an accent trim wall. The primary bath features a large open shower with multiple showering options and separate water closet. The second floor has unique elements for each of their children. As you walk up the stairs, there is a bonus room and study area for them. The second floor features a unique split level design, giving the bonus room a 10 ft ceiling. As you continue down the hallway there are individual bedrooms, second floor laundry, and a bathroom that won’t slow anyone down while getting ready in the morning.

Step into a space that seamlessly blends functional organization, relaxation, and a touch of fun. The renovation journey unfolded with a meticulous focus on the home's architecture, the client's design preferences, and the need for a practical yet stylish family environment. The primary bathroom takes center stage in promoting relaxation, featuring a spa-like ambiance with soothing colors, heated floors, a beautiful soaking tub, and gentle under-counter lighting creating a tranquil atmosphere. A cleverly integrated cabinet space is also available, providing a discreet storage solution for the less aesthetically pleasing litter box while ensuring easy access for our feline friends. In the kitchen, attention to detail shines through with a stunning wood-trimmed vent hood and wooden pulls that punctuate the Indigo Blue cabinets, introducing natural elements and a touch of warmth. Ample storage was a crucial requirement for this kitchen. Featuring expansive pull-out drawers, a concealed lazy Susan, impressive spice storage, and a discreet power source for the cordless vacuum, every detail has been considered for optimal functionality. Connected to the kitchen, you'll discover a dining area designed for versatility. This multipurpose zone seamlessly integrates wine storage, pantry space, a dedicated baking center, cocktail preparation area, and a convenient coffee zone. The main level's powder room pays homage to the homeowners' roots, boasting a vibrant wallpaper by Chasing Paper that adds a playful touch. The harmonious blend of aesthetics and functionality continues with an additional mixed-use space that serves as a delightful getaway, complete with outdoor access and ample countertop space for both utility and enjoyment. This home is a testament to the artful fusion of design, comfort, and entertainment. Interior Design by: Jennifer Gardner Design Photography by: Emily Keeney

The goal of this Bethesda Maryland property was to continue upgrading the backyard while also reflecting the family’s needs. The updated space now serves as a great spot for sports and gardening, making it more than just an outdoor area! The upgrades included leveling an area for a soccer field with bold walls, replacing the old patio and steps with a new flagstone patio, and installing a “Provence” style garden and stepping stones to connect all areas. To add a touch of uniqueness, we opted for a checkerboard fire pit patio that is sure to impress guests. For the patio space near the house, we went with a wolf outdoor kitchen, updated plantings and the drainage (using natives and ornamentals) plus installed low-voltage lighting. No property comes without its challenges. We had to deal with the significant rainfall uphill that created rivers crossing the property as well as the narrow access points to the backyard. The final product is a unique and upgraded space for the family to enjoy for years to come.

Tyler Homes has redefined the farmhouse with this two-story home. Elements like the wide front porch and board-and-batten siding echo traditional design, but modern features throughout the home give this farmhouse an urban feel. Knotty alder trim, hardwood floors, and sliding barn doors continue the rural theme on the main floor. The home’s galley-style kitchen with walk-in pantry, the vaulted great room, and a two-story fireplace add contemporary styling accented by rich wood trim and stone and iron accents. The first-floor master suite boasts a luxurious bath with doorless tile shower, and the walk-in closet offers access to the laundry room. Upstairs, two more bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, and a loft area overlooks the two-story entry and great room. On the walkout lower level, farm-style touches include wood trim and brick accents, but the space is clearly designed for contemporary living with its sunken family room, bar, and game room. A fourth bedroom and full bath complete the level.

DESCRIPTION: Accessible Walk-In Shower Remodel — Union City, CA | 2018 This thoughtfully designed accessible shower remodel in Union City, CA proves that safety features and beautiful design don't have to be mutually exclusive. Every element was carefully selected to meet the needs of a mobility-conscious user while delivering a warm, elegant, spa-like result. The spacious walk-in shower is clad floor-to-ceiling in large-format travertine-look porcelain tiles in a warm cream and beige tone with natural veining, creating a welcoming and timeless backdrop. A continuous horizontal band of mixed glass mosaic tile in rich jewel tones — cream, champagne, burgundy, and amber — wraps all three walls at mid-height, adding color, shimmer, and visual interest. The recessed niche, lined with the same glass mosaic tile, is perfectly positioned within the decorative band for a seamless, intentional look. The shower floor features a small-format natural stone mosaic in a warm mix of taupe, rust, cream, and brown — providing excellent slip resistance while complementing the overall earthy palette beautifully. A center floor drain keeps the layout clean and functional. Safety and accessibility are fully integrated without compromise. Brushed nickel grab bars are strategically placed for support, and a wall-mounted fold-down teak bench with chrome hardware provides a stylish, durable seating option that tucks away when not in use. A handheld multi-function showerhead on a slide bar, along with a tub spout for optional filling, rounds out the highly functional fixture package. Recessed ceiling lighting illuminates the generous shower space evenly, making it feel bright and open. The result is a beautiful, fully accessible shower that any homeowner would be proud of. KEY FEATURES: Large-format travertine-look porcelain wall tile Horizontal glass mosaic accent band — all three walls Glass mosaic-lined recessed niche Natural stone small-format mosaic shower floor Wall-mounted fold-down teak bench Brushed nickel grab bars — multiple locations Multi-function handheld showerhead on slide bar Tub spout / diverter Center floor drain Recessed ceiling lighting Accessible / ADA-friendly design
