The challenge of modernizing this 1970’s kitchen was its high ceilings. A dark color pallet was selected to keep the focus at eye level. A wall was removed to create symmetry within the space. To balance the dark pallet, lights where added above and under the cabinets. Treve Johnson Photography

This renovation stated with "The Chair" that a 6 year old young lady fell in love with. Her father had recently passed away and it was the first thing that lifted her spirits. The biggest challenge was change...the client had white walls all her life and I knew the room and the chair demanded drama. The medium gray base was applied and allowed to dry for a week during which time the client was convinced she could never get used to living in a cave. After much convincing her to be patient the room was taped off and 3" gold translucent metallic stripes were applied. The room needed as much light as possible so the window treatments needed to be light but make a statement. A gold and grey silk Moire fabric was used for the face of the design and was lined with a gold silk with a silk gold/grey tassle trim finish. New table lamps and accent pillows were added to the sofa. The chaise was the client's and was the perfect piece of accent furnishing for the room.

Ania Omski-Talwar Location: Danville, CA, USA The house was built in 1963 and is reinforced cinder block construction, unusual for California, which makes any renovation work trickier. The kitchen we replaced featured all maple cabinets and floors and pale pink countertops. With the remodel we didn’t change the layout, or any window/door openings. The cabinets may read as white, but they are actually cream with an antique glaze on a flat panel door. All countertops and backsplash are granite. The original copper hood was replaced by a custom one in zinc. Dark brick veneer fireplace is now covered in white limestone. The homeowners do a lot of entertaining, so even though the overall layout didn’t change, I knew just what needed to be done to improve function. The husband loves to cook and is beyond happy with his 6-burner stove. https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/90234951/list/zinc-range-hood-and-a-limestone-fireplace-create-a-timeless-look davidduncanlivingston.com
