Michael Nash Design, Build & HomesFor this recently moved in military family, their old rambler home offered plenty of area for potential improvement. An entire new kitchen space was designed to create a greater feeling of family warmth.
It all started with gutting the old rundown kitchen. The kitchen space was cramped and disconnected from the rest of the main level. There was a large bearing wall separating the living room from the kitchen and the dining room.
A structure recessed beam was inserted into the attic space that enabled opening up of the entire main level. A large L-shaped island took over the wall placement giving a big work and storage space for the kitchen.
Installed wood flooring matched up with the remaining living space created a continuous seam-less main level.
By eliminating a side door and cutting through brick and block back wall, a large picture window was inserted to allow plenty of natural light into the kitchen.
Recessed and pendent lights also improved interior lighting.
By using offset cabinetry and a carefully selected granite slab to complement each other, a more soothing space was obtained to inspire cooking and entertaining. The fabulous new kitchen was completed with a new French door leading to the sun room.
This family is now very happy with the massive transformation, and are happy to join their new community.
Knight Custom HomesA corroded pipe in the 2nd floor bathroom was the original prompt to begin extensive updates on this 109 year old heritage home in Elbow Park. This craftsman home was build in 1912 and consisted of scattered design ideas that lacked continuity. In order to steward the original character and design of this home while creating effective new layouts, we found ourselves faced with extensive challenges including electrical upgrades, flooring height differences, and wall changes. This home now features a timeless kitchen, site finished oak hardwood through out, 2 updated bathrooms, and a staircase relocation to improve traffic flow. The opportunity to repurpose exterior brick that was salvaged during a 1960 addition to the home provided charming new backsplash in the kitchen and walk in pantry.

Morpurgo ArchitectsThe Ackerman-Dater House was built in 1745 and is the recipient of the prestigious State of New Jersey Historic Preservation Award. Ensuing years had taken their toll on the house and major intervention was needed when the owners engaged Morpurgo Architects to restore their home. Our collaboration has protected and preserved this house, perpetuating its continued use.
Today, the Ackerman-Dater House is a historic residence that incorporates various contextual building periods, each in harmony with the original, producing a cohesive whole. With the sensitively-placed addition of a new wing, compatible with the style of the existing architecture, we enhanced the Ackerman-Dater House and ensured that it would meet the functional needs of a family living in current times.
Preservation of the Ackerman-Dater House maintains the character and history of our mutual past, benefiting the entire community. For our exceptional restoration, client, contractor and Morpurgo Architects were presented with the NJ State and the Bergen County Historic Preservation Awards.
Spectrum Design + BuildThis final view shows how the kitchen remodel improves the entire main level, not just the cooking area. From the living room, the navy island and built-in shelving create a strong visual anchor while providing storage and display space. Bar seating turns the island into a casual dining spot and a natural place for conversation. Brass pendants draw the eye toward the kitchen and add warmth to the open layout. Hardwood floors continue through both spaces, tying the design together. The gray walls, soft seating, and personal artwork keep the home comfortable and lived in. It is an inviting, connected layout for daily use with warmth, storage, and style throughout.
Nonument ArchitectsFoxbar Residence is an interior renovation of a 1,500 sq ft home in Toronto, reconfiguring the existing layout to improve spatial flow, natural light, and overall functionality. The project focuses on creating a cohesive and efficient plan that supports contemporary family living within a compact footprint.
A restrained material palette and carefully detailed interventions bring clarity and continuity to the interior, balancing openness with defined zones for daily use. Custom millwork and refined spatial adjustments enhance storage, circulation, and usability, resulting in a calm, functional home that feels both tailored and enduring.
Arani ConstructionThis phase of the Upper Lonsdale full house renovation involved exterior structural modifications to accommodate new window placements and updated glazing.
The scope included re-framing existing openings, structural header adjustments, precise window installation, and full exterior envelope integration. New energy-efficient windows were installed and carefully tied into the existing wall assembly, followed by professional stucco repair and texture matching to maintain architectural continuity.
Executing exterior modifications in North Vancouver requires coordination with building code requirements, weatherproofing best practices, and long-term moisture management — particularly in our West Coast climate. The final result blends seamlessly into the original façade while significantly improving natural light and performance.

Carswell Real EstateMagnolia, Texas, has quickly become one of the most attractive areas in North Houston for buyers seeking space, privacy, and a quieter lifestyle. Once considered a long-distance commute from major employment centers, the area is now far more accessible thanks to major transportation improvements.
With the expansion of State Highway 249 (Aggie Expressway) and continued development of the Grand Parkway (SH-99), commuting from Magnolia and nearby acreage communities has become significantly more convenient.
While residents enjoy the benefits of a rural setting with large homesites, commuting to nearby job centers such as The Woodlands, Spring, and Houston requires some planning, especially during peak travel times.
Cedarstone Group Inc.A bank of white Shaker drawers provides accessible storage beside the stainless refrigerator. Black bar pulls add contrast to the pale cabinet fronts, with the white counter and grey backsplash continuing the kitchen’s coordinated finishes around the small-appliance area.
Cedarstone Renovations refreshed this Harbourfront condo with a revised kitchen corner-cabinet layout and coordinated bathroom updates. White cabinetry, pale surfaces and black hardware create a consistent palette while improving everyday use of the Toronto condominium’s kitchen and bathroom.
