This image showcases a modern and sophisticated interior space where architectural lighting plays a crucial role. The ceiling features linear LED lighting that highlights the geometric shapes and adds depth to the environment. The soft and well-distributed light creates a cozy and elegant atmosphere, ideal for showcasing artworks and the collection of figures displayed on the shelf. The use of natural materials such as wood on the stairs and floor complements the technological lighting, blending warmth with modernity. This space demonstrates how the integration of advanced technology and aesthetic design can transform an interior into a place that is not only functional but also visually stunning.

LOFT | Luxury Loft Transformation | FOUR POINT DESIGN BUILD INC This ultra feminine luxury loft was designed for an up-and-coming fashion/travel writer. With 30' soaring ceiling heights, five levels, winding paths of travel and tight stairways, no storage at all, very little usable wall space, a tight timeline, and a very modest budget, we had our work cut out for us. Thrilled to report, the client loves it, and we completed the project on time and on budget. Photography by Riley Jamison

The remodeling process began with a complete demolition of the existing space. This phase was necessary to create a blank canvas from which to develop a space that would better serve patients and healthcare professionals alike. The design team, led by Guil, collaborated closely with the client to envision a modern and inviting environment that would significantly improve the clinic's functionality and atmosphere. By focusing on patient comfort and operational efficiency, the redesign aimed to enhance the overall experience for visitors and staff. A standout feature of this remodel was the installation of glass doors. These doors not only served a practical purpose but also added a modern touch to the clinic. The use of glass allowed for increased natural light to flow into the space, promoting an open and airy feel. This design choice aligns with current trends in healthcare architecture, where patient comfort is prioritized. Additionally, the choice of materials played a crucial role in the renovation. The installation of travertine tile throughout the walls and desk created a sense of elegance and durability. Travertine is a natural stone that not only provides a high-end look but also offers practical benefits, such as easy maintenance and longevity. The incorporation of engineered wood floors further enhanced the clinic's design. The warmth of wood can help in mitigating the often sterile feeling of medical environments, thereby promoting a more welcoming atmosphere. Central to the success of this remodel was the dedication and hard work of the entire team at MDRN Remodeling, along with the collaborative spirit formed with the client.

Nestled into the mountainside of the beautiful Desert Mountain community, this contemporary residence has a minimalist design and an open feel that makes visitors and home owners feel like they are in a desert oasis. One of the challenges, and also opportunities, of designing a minimalist space is making things like pool equipment, AC units, and power supplies become a natural and inconspicuous part of the home. To achieve this, the building was designed with solar panels on the roof and subterranean pool pumps and water heaters. The right materials were crucial in this process, and the porcelain panels used on the exterior won't crack, fade or chip like stucco and the water's edge of the pool also won’t show calcium or efflorescence like stucco. The exterior is also designed with indigenous natural stone which is the same color as the natural rock outcropping behind the home. The infinity pool extending from the deck and living room provides a beautiful view of the surrounding cactus and valley below. Though the overall design of the home is contemporary and modern, it does not appear out of place due to elements like natural stones and indigenous landscaping.

The little cottage on Turnip Field Road in Eastham had been owned by the same couple since 1940, until they built a new, adjacent house on the property. The cottage was then handed down to the next generation, who began spending more and more time at the cottage. It was then that they contacted Cape Associates to construct a more livable home in place of that little cottage. It was crucial to the owners however, that the home keep with the understated charm and Cape Cod-feel of the neighborhood. The primary challenge was to keep it humble, while building the owners their well-deserved vacation retreat. The original cottage had no air conditioning, and renovating was quickly dismissed because of the inadequacies and the cost of modernizing. Building new allowed the team to relocate the house further back from the street, and it meant meeting the owners’ needs without compromise. Cape Associates’ project manager Lance LaLone said the owners expressed their desire to incorporate lots of wood and the types of materials that were in the old cottage. Most of the interior is pine, which was used on the flooring, the walls, and wrapped around the ceiling’s beams, giving the owners what they desired on a grander scale – a beautiful, modern dwelling that still held the personality of that little cottage that held such cherished memories. The front of the home has a two-car garage and breezeway entrance, while the rear reveals an entertainer’s paradise, with an enormous mahogany deck with an outdoor shower, a stunning Connecticut-fieldstone fireplace with a chimney that reaches around 30 feet in height, and multiple sliders to access the home. The finished basement opens to the ground level, and above the entrance breezeway is another small deck with a great view. It’s the best of indoor/outdoor living. Movement patterns from beach to house to bedroom were an important consideration. The site also provided an excellent opportunity to visually connect the basement level patio visually to the main level deck and finally the master bedroom deck. The finished home provides year-round living, with a summer-getaway atmosphere.
