Located in İzmir, this villa project harmoniously blends architectural elegance with Serapool’s sophisticated material selection. The Sukabumi Series interacts with the natural green hues of water to create a tropical atmosphere, while the Snow White Series brightens the design with its brilliant white tones that reflect light and add freshness. Snow White and Sukabumi outer trim pieces perfect the transitions, delivering visual continuity and refined edge details. All products offer high durability with a water absorption rate below 0.5%, and exhibit excellent resistance to UV rays, chemical effects, and thermal shocks. With a PTV ≥ 45° slip resistance value, they ensure secure footing on wet surfaces. The result is not just a swimming area, but a luxurious outdoor experience where design, safety, and comfort coexist effortlessly.

This family room was designed to maximize sleeping space while still providing a fun and functional hangout area for guests. Two custom-built gray bunk beds comfortably sleep four, each outfitted with matching bedding and built-in storage drawers below. The clean lines and neutral palette keep the room feeling bright and organized while the shiplap ceiling and warm wood flooring tie the space into the rest of the basement design.
A ping pong table in the center of the room creates an interactive recreation area, making the space perfect for kids and visiting guests. Recessed lighting provides even illumination throughout the room, while the simple, durable finishes make the space ideal for high-traffic lake house living.

This was a fun and special project for me to work on – it’s my parent’s new (to them) townhome. Downsizing from their previous home, and I collaborated with my architect father on redesigning their kitchen and master bathroom.
Opening up the layout on the 1st floor was on the top of their list. They hoped to make it possible for whoever was cooking in the kitchen was still able to interact with people in family room and the dining room easily. An existing wall between the family room and the kitchen, made the kitchen feel cut off from the rest of the house.
By removing the wall, we were able to turn the kitchen layout from the standard "U" shape kitchen to a galley which allowed for more storage and countertop space. White Dove frameless cabinetry from Woodharbor was used to give the space a light and fresh feel, while maximizing space within for easy storage. A built in-hutch in the dining room was added for additional storage without encroaching in the room itself.
The master bathroom was completely remodeled as well from head-to-toe. The existing layout was not conducive to my parent’s daily lifestyle. It had one vanity, an awkward corner tub with a just as awkward corner shower which seemed more like a dungeon than a shower. We gutted the existing bathroom, relocated a wall to create a large walk-in closet, omitted the tub, and created a nice spa like shower. The new layout also allowed them to have a double vanity with a small make-up area in between.
Some features we added into the bathroom were heated floors, which are especially nice during the cold Chicago winters, custom marble tile as an accent in the shower, and a custom shower enclosure which really kept the room open.

In this kitchen renovation we opened up the wall that separated the kitchen and living room to instantly create a feeling of a larger kitchen and allows for better interaction with guests. Incorporating a breakfast bar added extra seating, a place to sit and converse with the cook while preparing meals and a place to set up a buffet when needed by utilizing the added counter surface. The kitchen extended into the dining space by adding a base cabinet with wood top, flanked by two pantry cabinets. The products used are Waypoint Cherry Spice 420S Full Overlay Square Door Style with veneer flat panel accented with brushed nickel pulls. Santa Cecilia granite countertops with an undermount stainless steel 60/40 sink and Moen Arbor High Arc faucet. For the backsplash Bliss Amber Tea Linear Glass/Stone Blend tile was installed. Accented with a Seagull custom design Ambiance low voltage rail system with 2 pendant lights and 8 directional spot lights.

The gourmet kitchen in this Bloomfield Hills residence was a part of a whole house renovation and addition, completed in 2016. The existing kitchen consisted of dated cabinets and appliances, and the layout was not conducive to large groups of people using it as a gathering spot. The new layout, however, opens up the kitchen to the hearth room and into the family room. The kitchen features a large marble center island perfect for gathering and food preparation. High-end appliances are built in to the cabinetry and hidden away from view. The centerpiece of the space is an imported range from France that helps give a pop of color to the room. A large hood helps anchor the range in the kitchen and provides extra extravagance to the space. Ample storage is created beneath both the main island and the breakfast bar. Careful detail was given as to how the crown moldings, brackets, and trim interacted with the cabinetry, providing a seamless transition from one to the next. The simple, elegant, cream cabinetry was warmed up with distressed walnut wide-plank hardwood flooring.

Privately commissioned freehand painted geometric in-home mural. Created for a couple in Brighton, CO. One of the owners of the house has been a flight attendant for 19+ years, so we created something that was very personal to her. When she comes home, she has "Landed". She is in her safe place. Consistent place. Steady space. With her beloved husband and pup. Mural Size: approximately 114” L x 154” W. gneural™ is the creative studio of artist and innovative surface designer Debbie Clapper. Drawing nearly every day since the age of 9, Debbie has mastered the art of freehand drawing and painting without the aid of a ruler or straight edge. She has built a lush career around pattern illustration via her passion for abstract optical illusion art. Heavily inspired by M.C. Escher and graffiti, Debbie’s work strives to inspire and ignite imagination in all who interact with it. For 18 years she ran an award-winning graphic design studio, and now she focuses on creating innovative surface design and inspiring creativity.

We loved teaming up with Charlotte-based designer Hadley Quisenberry of West Trade Interiors to transform what was once a small, underused playroom into a space tweens and teens actually want to hang out in. The family wasn’t using the room much before, but now it’s packed with possibilities — a place to move, imagine, and create.
Even in a compact footprint, we made room for both gross motor elements and quiet-time zones. From climbing features to a cozy desk setup perfect for homework, drawing, or dream journaling, the design encourages kids to express themselves however they need to in the moment.
This was a room meant to grow with the family — and it absolutely will.
