Luxury Vinyl Planks are a great option for water areas like bathrooms, basements, and kitchens. The technology is advancing so that the product looks and feels like natural products like wood and stone.

This is our Deus™ Entrada Xtreme Frameless Door, Panel, Return panel notched for tub deck. Glass is 1/2″ thick with chrome plated solid brass wall mount hinges for an outswing door. This Frameless Glass Enclosure is designed for a “curbless” shower stall application.
While curbless applications are becoming more and more popular there are a few things to pay attention to. One of the most important things on a curbless design is to make sure that the glass enclosure is designed to sit either on the joint where the pitch of the floor or well on the pitched floor. Important not to be on the flat part of the floor above where the pitch begins.
Another thing to look out for is to make sure that the floor area that the door will swing past is level and not accidentally going up. If the floor does go up where the door swings out, the door may begin to contact the floor and bind or even create a dangerous situation.

To create an outdoor space that’s usable in Vegas’ extreme climate, the designers needed a way to keep out heat in the summer and retain warmth in the winter. It was also important to block out bugs and harmful UV rays.
Phantom’s motorized screens were added so the homeowners could feel like they’re outside without being barraged by the elements. They can now comfortably dine and entertain guests outdoor all year round without having to worry about pesky insects or dangerous UV rays.

Before this shower was extremely dangerous for my clients. It contained a step down to get into the shower. For an 55+ community this is not safe. We designed it to be safe easy transitional flow getting into the shower and out of the shower. We eliminated the curb and the step down recessed floor. We raised the floor flush with the current floor and made the shower floor slope towards the drain. We also bumped out and enlarged the shower for added room. As you can see to enhance the value we ran the porcelain tile and accent tile mosaic all the way up to the ceiling. We added 2 wall niches for the clients shampoos, soaps and accessories. We added the flexibility of the teak bench for comfort and functional use. We added grab bar for client's safety.

This blue and white kitchen simply POPS!
This narrow galley kitchen had pretty good placement of its appliances originally, except for the double ovens. (see before picture). We had to move those down, so when in use you weren't 1-blocking the door way and 2-dangerously close to the cook top.
We also wanted to give these new homeowner more countertop space for prep, and a place for them to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a place for the kids to do homework while mom & dad worked on dinner.
HOMEREDI did an amazing job bringing our design to fruition. I just love the gold fixtures the homeowner selected for the final touches. The gold looks amazing against our blue cabinetry. The combo just screams luxury, doesn't it?

Challenges of a Small Kitchen.
"How can we add a dishwasher and increase storage to our already small kitchen?"
A good question for sure. We tucked the refrigerator into what had been a hall closet, encorporated a neat rolling cabinet/cutting board 'under' the new (handmade by owner) oak table, replaced a window into a new place, removed an space wasting unused brick chimney, strategically added many storage cabinets and removed bearing walls.
The countertops are a combination of soapstone and Quartzite. We even squeezed in the "small but pretty" farm sink!
"Lance Kramer (project manager) kept us informed every step, kept the job clean, did great work" ...and with a twinkle in his eye
... " I'd recommend you do not fire him". Richard L." No danger there! Great job K Team.

The Crystal Keyline island, range-hood and accessible cooktop area are focal points, finished in Antique Ivory w/Brown Highlights, that contrast nicely with Crystal Keyline Toasted Rye w/Brown Highlights cabinetry. The Bayfield door style unifies the design.
Typhoon Bordeaux granite countertops are layered in staggered heights for added visual interest.
The on-set of a neuromuscular disorder was the basis for this custom kitchen and required the complete customization of this space to the specific needs of the client, as well as to his wife who does most the cooking on a daily basis. The layout was designed for the couple to be able to work together in the kitchen, or independently.
An accessible prep area next to the stove allows plenty of room for multiple cooks in the kitchen. Note the placement of the microwave is not only ideal for wheelchair accessibility, but eliminates potentially dangerous overhead lifting of hot or heavy containers.
Although largely dictated by the husband's need for accessibility, the universal design of this kitchen is also extremely friendly for a person of smaller stature (his wife!)
The couple feels at home in this kitchen yet, it’s not obvious that someone with physical limitations utilizes this space.

This bathroom, originally built in 1970 needed some updating but it was important to the client to keep the same flare and design style of the home. The original floor plan had a small 36”x36” shower and dangerous sunken bathtub in the middle of the floor plan. With supply lines for the shower and bathtub fixed in concrete, the design challenge then became to keep the original layout, enlarge the shower and make the space more functional.
The new design was far from ordinary, the etched glass shower door with it’s “rolling hills” top, as the client like to call it, made this shower a focal point. You can see the elegant detail added to the tub surround and shower. Inside the shower is an 8 port Kohler DTV shower unit equipped with body sprays and a rain shower head which makes you feel like it’s a day at the spa. The DTV unit is an advanced digital platform that wraps water, sound, light and steam together in a seamless and customizable system. As we wrapped up this project it was evident we were able to sustain the personality of this home while making it functional, interesting and well designed.

A comfortable bedroom with a gently vaulted ceiling features a recessed niche showcasing a favorite surfboard. Warm white walls create a spacious backdrop highlighting the intentional inclusion of a few dramatic elements. A vertical mirror doubles as a hidden closet door, well chosen artwork hints at the perpetual, potentially dangerous nature of the sea, a slatted walnut dresser provides horizontal stability, while a well balanced surfboard, in three tones of gray keeps one's thoughts aloft.

This lake home has a special place in my heart. Many nights were spent hosting wonderful dinner parties, surrounded by LA's finest musical talent. I was fortunate enough to add a little of my own flair to the existing water thirsty, hillside. Because of California's dry climate, these areas have no immunity to the fires that rage through the area. It's hard to see but we have a recirculating pump that's cycling the water through like a natural stream. Something that is very rare in California. We opted to reinforce the hillside with lots of drought tolerant plants that are deep rooted, so when the rain does come a couple times a year, the hillside doesn't wash out. This home is nestled in Malibu canyon. Any home that is subject to the dangers of fire should have a system in place to preserve your home. This home has a pump that sucks water from the pool in an emergency while you wait for the fire department to arrive.

Lakefront property in the northwest suburbs of Chicago is hard to come by, so when we were hired by this young family with exactly that, we were immediately inspired by not just the unusually large footprint of this 1950’s colonial revival but also the lovely views of the manmade lake it was sited on. The large 5-bedroom home was solidly stuck in the 1980’s, but we saw tons of potential. We started out by updating the existing staircase with a fresh coat of paint and adding new herringbone slate to the entry hall.
The powder room off the entryway also got a refresh - new flooring, new cabinets and fixtures. We ran the new slate right through into this space for some consistency. A fun wallpaper and shiplap trim add a welcoming feel and set the tone for the home.
Next, we tackled the kitchen. Located away from the rest of the first floor, the kitchen felt a little isolated, so we immediately began planning for how to better connect it to the rest of the first floor. We landed on removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room and designed a modified galley style space with separate cooking and clean up zones. The cooking zone consists of the refrigerator, prep sink and cooktop, along with a nice long run of prep space at the island. The cleanup side of the kitchen consists of the main sink and dishwasher. Both areas are situated so that the user can view the lake during prep work and cleanup!
One of the home’s main puzzles was how to incorporate the mudroom and area in front of the patio doors at the back of the house. We already had a breakfast table area, so the space by the patio doors was a bit of a no man’s land. We decided to separate the kitchen proper from what became the new mudroom with a large set of barn doors. That way you can quickly hide any mudroom messes but have easy access to the light coming in through the patio doors as well as the outdoor grilling station. We also love the impact the barn doors add to the overall space.
The homeowners’ first words to us were “it’s time to ditch the brown,” so we did! We chose a lovely blue pallet that reflects the home’s location on the lake which is also vibrant yet easy on the eye. Countertops are white quartz, and the natural oak floor works well with the other honey accents. The breakfast table was given a refresh with new chairs, chandelier and window treatments that frame the gorgeous views of the lake out the back.
We coordinated the slate mudroom flooring with that used in the home’s main entrance for a consistent feel. The storage area consists of open and closed storage to allow for some clutter control as needed.
Next on our “to do” list was revamping the dated brown bar area in the neighboring dining room. We eliminated the clutter by adding some closed cabinets and did some easy updates to help the space feel more current. One snag we ran into here was the discovery of a beam above the existing open shelving that had to be modified with a smaller structural beam to allow for our new design to work. This was an unexpected surprise, but in the end we think it was well worth it!
We kept the colors here a bit more muted to blend with the homeowner’s existing furnishings. Open shelving and polished nickel hardware add some simple detail to the new entertainment zone which also looks out onto the lake!
Next we tackled the upstairs starting with the homeowner’s son’s bath. The bath originally had both a tub shower and a separate shower, so we decided to swap out the shower for a new laundry area. This freed up some space downstairs in what used to be the mudroom/laundry room and is much more convenient for daily laundry needs.
We continued the blue palette here with navy cabinetry and the navy tile in the shower. Porcelain floor tile and chrome fixtures keep maintenance to a minimum while matte black mirrors and lighting add some depth the design. A low maintenance runner adds some warmth underfoot and ties the whole space together.
We added a pocket door to the bathroom to minimize interference with the door swings. The left door of the laundry closet is on a 180 degree hinge to allow for easy full access to the machines. Next we tackled the master bath which is an en suite arrangement. The original was typical of the 1980’s with the vanity outside of the bathroom, situated near the master closet. And the brown theme continued here with multiple shades of brown.
Our first move was to segment off the bath and the closet from the master bedroom. We created a short hall from the bedroom to the bathroom with his and hers walk-in closets on the left and right as well as a separate toilet closet outside of the main bathroom for privacy and flexibility.
The original bathroom had a giant soaking tub with steps (dangerous!) as well as a small shower that did not work well for our homeowner who is 6’3”. With other bathtubs in the home, they decided to eliminate the tub and create an oversized shower which takes up the space where the old tub was located. The double vanity is on the opposite wall and a bench is located under the window for morning conversations and a place to set a couple of towels.
The pallet in here is light and airy with a mix of blond wood, creamy porcelain and marble tile, and brass accents. A simple roman shade adds some texture and it’s top-down mechanism allows for light and privacy.
This large whole house remodel gave our homeowners not only the ability to maximize the potential of their home but also created a lovely new frame from which to view their fabulous lake views.
