Custom Countertops For the countertops we chose a cost-effective quality quartz by MSI-Surfaces called Q Quartz. Normally, Cambria is my go-to but for the marble look. However, we can get Q Quartz in for a $1000 less per slab, which is a great price point for a renovation like this one. The only drawback is you do not have the lifetime warranty that comes with Cambria countertops. MSI-Surfaces are a trusted company that we have worked with for years. Their countertops have the look and durability that are always a winner when we need to stay in our budget. For the backsplash we chose Daltile Rittenhouse Square in an Arctic White. The glossy finish and dramatic look of the quartz brings an incredible crisp and clean look to the whole kitchen.

Simplifying the design by building behind the formal dining space where once existed double windows, enabled a beautiful, growing family to cost effectively add entertaining space and a master bedroom suite.

Sometimes things just happen organically. This client reached out to me in a professional capacity to see if I wanted to advertise in his new magazine. I declined at that time because as team we have chosen to be referral based, not advertising based. Even with turning him down, he and his wife decided to sign on with us for their basement... which then upon completion rolled into their main floor (part 2). They wanted a very distinct style and already had a pretty good idea of what they wanted. We just helped bring it all to life. They wanted a kid friendly space that still had an adult vibe that no longer was based off of furniture from college hand-me-down years. Since they loved modern farmhouse style we had to make sure there was shiplap and also some stained wood elements to warm up the space. This space is a great example of a very nice finished basement done cost-effectively without sacrificing some comforts or features.

Another referral from one of our favorite clients! The clients wanted to update their teenage son's bathroom which had a few wear and tear issues. There was talk to paint or replace cabinetry as the client had a vision and the current stain seemed to be in the way of that. They also wanted to be cost-effective, so we designed around the existing stained cabinetry. Tschida Construction helped with the execution and helped with some creative behind-the-scenes problems that popped up. Having a design-build team that works together is so important and Nick and his team are awesome. Photographer- Height Advantages

BEFORE photo. Cost-effectively update the look of your kitchen by refinishing your cabinets with Spray-Net! To provide you with superior durability and a flawless finish, we formulated a polyurethane paint for kitchen cabinets that combines the best of all worlds: the adhesion of a soft alkyd, the flexibility of a urethane and the hardness of a polyurethane. This makes our coating flexible enough to avoid cracking, hard enough to avoid chipping, smooth enough to easily wash and tough enough to block stains. All this in a low-toxicity, water-based formulation that conforms to Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers’ Association (KMCA) standards. Our paint for kitchen cabinets is specially formulated for: laminate, melamine, thermofoil/plastic and wood kitchen cabinets. Give us a call today to book your free in-home consultation!

SANTA BARBARA, CA / DUPLEX RESIDENTIAL This urban infill, artist loft duplex was located in an overlooked, but well-located, light-commercial zone. It was also the first new residential construction built in the area for decades, the project is located within a 10-square-block area zoned for light-commercial and affectionately dubbed the “Funk Zone” by resident artists and city planners. Only two blocks walking distance to the beach, and a similar distance to the downtown commercial district, this pedestrian-oriented project ideally suits the lifestyles of the owners. Although the two units share equal footprints, the southerly unit features a double-height, north-facing living space. The northerly unit supplants this volume with additional living space. The siting also allows for secure private courtyard entries, maximization of natural light and view-swept, rooftop living space. The design incorporates a raised plinth required by flood zone restrictions to create a peaceful, intimate environment within the somewhat chaotic surrounding context. The disciplined and restrained approach towards the building’s image was intended to make reference to the much-loved Meridian Studios by George Washington Smith. Two roof-decks with outdoor fireplaces and shade trellises extend outdoor living space, contribute ocean and mountain views and provide both refuge and release. Cost-effective materials were selected in order to adhere to the strict budget and to relate to the industrial surroundings. Over-sized pivot doors, “industrial” staircases and cabinetry were constructed on-site by the owners to conserve design integrity within the extremely limited budget. 2000 AIA Santa Barbara Chapter Honor Award

Here you can see our skills with wood to include cedar for the posts and natural wood (cost effective) for the shiplap and we used a colonial maple to get a good match to the cedar post. although this pictures lighting does not show that.

These are the before pictures of steel doors with glass inserts that the insulated glass was compromised and the plastic frames were yellow and brittle. Even though the doors and frames were 15+ years old, they were in great shape. There was no reason to remove the doors and It was much more cost effective to just replace the glass inserts.

Addition off the side of a typical mid-century post-WWII colonial, including master suite with master bath expansion, first floor family room addition, a complete basement remodel with the addition of new bedroom suite for an AuPair. The clients realized it was more cost effective to do an addition over paying for outside child care for their growing family. Additionally, we helped the clients address some serious drainage issues that were causing settling issues in the home.
