Cabinets that were starting to peel. Finishes that looked tired and dated. An overall style that wasn’t working anymore. This and more got our client thinking it was finally time to give their kitchen a contemporary makeover. We love the use of darker cabinets for this design as they stand out beautifully when contrasted with the lighter countertop and backsplash. The combination also helps create a cozy and inviting atmosphere and helps pull the room together by giving a strong presence with their bold tones. The overall result is a bold and contemporary design that creates a modern and sophisticated atmosphere.

Rest and relax in this gorgeous transitional master bedroom! Medium wood flooring is brought to life with an abstract weave patterned area rug in multi-color neutrals. White, shades of gray, and caramel bring warmth and calmness to this space. These hues are continuous throughout the beautiful bedding and pillows. A tall tufted gray fabric headboard creates a strong focal point against the lightly painted wall. Geometric crystal lamps are sleek and muted for subtle interest. At the foot of the bed sits a deep loveseat in solid fabric with matching bolster pillows.

Spiral staircases are stunning and add a unique twist to your home's character. With a smaller footprint than a standard set of stairs, a Spiral Staircase is perfect for tight spaces or to open up a room while adding an eye-catching focal point to your home. Our Spiral Staircases are not "kits". They are custom designed and fabricated to fit the space in which it was intended. All metal components are welded together to create a strong, structuraly solid staircase you can swirl around for a lifetime!

This St. Amdrews wellness suite extends the home's language of tailored luxury into a more immersive, resort-inspired environment. Conceived as a private wellness retreat, the space brings together water, heat, natural timber, stone, and glass to create an experience that feels both highly residential and distinctly elevated. The sauna is the architectural centerpiece. Enclosed almost entirely in clear glass, it becomes a visual feature rather than a concealed amenity. The transparency preserves the sense of openness within the room while allowing the warmth and texture of the timber interior to become part of the overall composition. Rich natural wood lines the walls, ceiling, benches, and backrests, creating a continuous envelope that immediately shifts the atmosphere from contemporary bathroom to intimate spa. The detailing within the sauna is intentionally precise. Horizontal timber battens establish a strong linear rhythm, while integrated illumination beneath and between the bench elements creates a soft architectural glow. The layered woodwork gives the sauna depth and dimension, demonstrating how functional wellness spaces can be treated with the same level of craftsmanship as the home's principal living areas. A dramatic dark stone surround frames the sauna enclosure and introduces a strong counterpoint to the warmth of the timber. Its expressive veining adds movement and visual weight, while the black-framed glazing creates a crisp transition between the darker architectural surround and the lighter adjacent surfaces. The hydrotherapy tub introduces a second wellness experience and provides a sculptural contrast to the linear sauna. Its generous proportions and clean white form keep the foreground visually calm, while the dark upholstery and surrounding stone reinforce the broader material palette of the home. The flooring is selected to complement the spa environment, offering a tactile, natural surface that contrasts with the polished glass and stone. Together, the materials create a carefully balanced sensory palette, warm wood, cool stone, transparent glass, and soft water, designed to make the room feel restorative rather than purely functional. The overall concept is residential wellness elevated to architectural design. Every element is coordinated to create continuity between material, light, texture, and function. The result is a sophisticated private spa that feels integrated into the architecture of the York Mills residence, offering an experience closer to a boutique wellness retreat than a conventional home amenity.

An historic Spanish Colonial residence built in 1925 being redesigned and furnished for a modern-day Southern California family was the challenge. The interiors of the main house needed the backgrounds set and then a timeless collection created for its furnishings. Lifestyle was always a consideration as well as the interiors relating to the strong architecture of the residence. Natural colors such as terra cotta, tans, blues, greens, old red and soft vintage shades were incorporated throughout. Our goal was to maintain the historic character of the residence combining design elements and materials considered classic in Southern California Spanish Colonial architecture. Natural fiber textiles, leathers and woven linens were the predominated upholstery choices. A 7000 square foot basement was added and furnished to provide a gym, Star Wars theater, game areas, spa area and a simulator for indoor golf and other sports. Antiques were selected throughout the world, fine art from major galleries, custom reproductions fabricated in the old-world style. Collectible carpets were selected for the reclaimed hardwood flooring in all the areas. An estancia and garden over the basement were created and furnished with old world designs and materials as reclaimed woods, terra cotta and French limestone flooring.

This modern home is artfully tucked into a wooded hillside, and much of the home's beauty rests in its direct connection to the outdoors. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels slide open to connect the interior with the expansive deck outside, nearly doubling the living space during the warmer months of the year. A palette of exposed concrete, glass, black steel, and wood create a simple but strong mix of materials that are repeated throughout the residence. That balance of texture and color is echoed in the choice of interior materials, from the flooring and millwork to the furnishings, artwork and textiles.

Transforming a Master Bathroom When our clients purchased their beautiful home in South Fort Myers, FL they fell in love with the expansive, sweeping space. It wasn’t long, however, before they realized the master bathroom just didn’t suit their taste. The large walk-in shower was practically cave-like. Consequentially, it completely dwarfed the bathroom. Along with bland colors, outdated finishes, and a dividing wall in the middle of the room, the whole space felt smaller than its ample dimensions implied. There was no question about it – the bathroom needed an update. Making Room for More First, we demolished the existing finishes and cut the concrete slab for new underground plumbing. We minimized the imposing shower and moved it to the other side of the room. Moving the shower also allowed for the installation of our Dura Supreme Alectra style cabinetry in cocoa brown. For increased functionality, we created split his-and-hers vanities. Then we added towers to match the cabinets. With interior outlets, the towers added smart storage for bathroom appliances, helping to keep the counters clutter-free. For a finishing touch, we outlined the large mirrors with crown molding trim in a complimentary finish – an essential detail to tie all the cabinetry together. The Spa To bring the feel of the spa to this gorgeous home, we installed our luxurious drop-in 72”x42” Kohler Air Massage bathtub. We completely surrounded it with 3cm granite countertops in Delicatus green and added a tub deck with tile backsplashes for a sumptuous ambiance. Lighting On either side of the his-and-hers vanity, we installed George Kovach tube sconces. Vertical placement of the sconces provided ample lighting while enhancing the contemporary style of the space. To frame the room, we added a drop ceiling with recessed lighting and outlined the tray ceiling with crown molding to match the rest of the design. To complete the bath remodel, we installed the final element – a stunningly unique 10-light polished chrome chandelier from Maxim lighting. A Complete Transformation When we met with our clients, it was instantly clear to us why they were unhappy with their master bathroom. The cave-like shower and cumbersome dividing wall overpowered a room in dire need of a modernizing. Furthermore, with two small children and a busy lifestyle, we could sense our clients not only desired a bathroom renovation, they needed a relaxing retreat. Ultimately, this project was nothing less than a complete transformation of space. In fact, by the time we had finished, the only original fixtures left were the windows! With beautifully updated finishes and an improved layout, we were able to achieve the functionality our clients craved along with a new, spa-like feel. The end result was nothing short of a haven at home – the perfect spot to recharge at the end of a long day.

This custom-designed home, secluded on 6 acres of woods and a pond, was constructed in 1986 and is demonstrative of the challenges of remodeling custom design homes. While the initial design worked for the original empty nesters, the new owner found aspects of the custom design deficient for their young family, best exemplified by the fact the kitchen was extremely small and did not have an oven. An interesting aspect of the original design was that it had a strong geometric form, in floor plan, that created interesting spaces for the original owner but introduced challenges in accommodating our client’s program. The original plan had triangular indentions and projections beyond a rectilinear footprint. To accommodate the owner’s program, we infilled one projection to encompass a fireplace and home stereo cabinets and removed an indentation to create more room for an expanded kitchen. The existing sunken living room floor was two steps down from the kitchen/dining area. We raised this floor flush with the other spaces to create a continuity of space. This allowed for more options in function and furnishings. The modern expression of the remodel was driven by our client’s passion for modern design, and it further enhanced the original design expression, staying respectful and true to the original design.

This custom landscape installation in Parker, Colorado was designed to complement a newly built home with a clean, Modern Country aesthetic. As part of a large‑scale exterior project in the Metro Denver area, the landscape was crafted to enhance curb appeal, support long‑term durability, and create a welcoming outdoor environment that feels cohesive with the home’s architecture and surrounding terrain. The design focuses on structure, simplicity, and natural flow—key elements of Modern Country style. Hardscape features establish strong visual lines and functional outdoor spaces, while plant selections were chosen for climate suitability, seasonal interest, and long‑term sustainability. Each component was tailored to the property’s layout and the homeowner’s vision for a refined yet inviting exterior. Because this is a new‑construction landscape, the installation serves as the foundation for the home’s future outdoor living potential. The layout balances open areas with defined planting zones, ensuring the landscape will mature beautifully over time. Materials and colors were selected to harmonize with the home’s exterior finishes, creating a unified look from the street to the entryway and throughout the property. This project reflects the thoughtful planning and craftsmanship behind every Stone & Flower Gardens installation—bringing together design, function, and Colorado’s natural beauty to create an exterior that feels timeless, resilient, and ready to grow with the home.

(2165) Naily Heart Pine Breastfront Image #25884.1 An extension of the adjacent kitchen, this family room’s fireplace is well served by Naily Grade, Heart Pine, and the insightful design eye of Charlottesville architect, Jay Dalgleish. The nail holes that pattern this particular cut of Heart Pine result when planks are cut from the top face of beams to which decking was once nailed. Integrated mantel, paneling, and window casings, create a unified space. Strong artful design, the finest materials, and unsurpassed craftsmanship, invariably provide our clients with exceptional interior spaces in their homes. Sometimes it requires the eye of an artisan and the architect to create the suitable environment.

Designed with Spanish-inspired architecture and luxury outdoor living in mind, this space makes a strong cover photo for the project.

Arches of Rain - designed by Mike Farley. To create a focal point to blend with the Spanish style home but still leaving the view open to the pasture behind was a challenge. Centered on the backyard entrance from the home the golden stucco arches with rainfalls created the solution. The yard slope created multiple opportunities. Steps transition the sight line down to a flush vanishing edge spa. A Bridge of Travertine allows access over the pool to the spa. The spa tile blends with the water color. Symmetrical curves flank the spa to allow transition around the cabana and the slide. Low ground cover softens the upper terrace and adds color. A finger ledge of Travertine or benches provide many resting places around the pool. The precast trim on the arches matches the detail on the home as well as the stucco Finnish and color. The Scabos Travertine field is accented with a square of glass used fromthe spa and provides great backdrop for the Lions Heads. Each of the rain falls are individually controlled to create sound from gentle rain to a strong shower. This space creates a space of tranquility and peace that is enjoyed everyday.
