This project showcases a stunning transformation that combines thoughtful design, functional upgrades, and meticulous craftsmanship. At its heart is a fully renovated kitchen featuring custom shaker cabinets with a luxurious, soft green custom paint finish. These cabinets are complemented by an elegant engineered quartz countertop, creating a clean and timeless aesthetic. To further enhance the space, the addition of a skylight brings in natural light, brightening the area and giving it an open, airy feel. The patterned tile flooring adds a bold and stylish touch, tying together traditional and modern elements. The carefully designed bench seating with built-in storage provides practicality and charm, perfect for a cozy and functional corner by the entrance. The renovation went beyond aesthetic improvements. All electrical and mechanical systems were reconfigured to meet the demands of the updated layout, ensuring optimal functionality and safety. Additionally, structural repairs in the floor above were expertly executed to enhance the home’s stability and longevity. Outside, the addition blends seamlessly with the existing structure, featuring durable and stylish siding that adds curb appeal. A thoughtfully constructed deck completes the exterior, offering a versatile space for outdoor enjoyment. This project reflects the seamless integration of thoughtful design, technical expertise, and superior craftsmanship, resulting in a home that is as beautiful as it is functional.

The client wanted a garden that carried the spirit of her homeland — the forms, textures, and quiet drama of a Japanese garden — set down in a subdivision of Western-style homes enclosed by matching aluminum fences. The site itself posed the real challenge: a backyard on a 55% slope, with little natural sense of arrival or destination. The design answers with a meandering gravel pathway that winds down, across, and up the grade through a series of distinct micro-environments, each defined by its own plant grouping. Hairpin turns and boulder retaining walls hold the banks in place, with beds of reddish mulch tying the slope together visually. An arched wooden footbridge, finished with copper post caps, serves as the garden's focal point and carries the design's Japanese sensibility — echoed in the curved, layered railings that continue along the stairways above and below it. A single Japanese maple stands as a deliberate nod to the tradition, set among a bolder planting of agaves, aloes, and other drought-tolerant succulents suited to the Bay Area climate — together transforming a steep, awkward backyard into a serene, immersive retreat. The installation, by Arborist Now, has required the kind of grading, stonework, and structural skill a slope this steep demands — the craft is as much a part of the story as the design.

This gem of a home was designed by homeowner/architect Eric Vollmer. It is nestled in a traditional neighborhood with a deep yard and views to the east and west. Strategic window placement captures light and frames views while providing privacy from the next door neighbors. The second floor maximizes the volumes created by the roofline in vaulted spaces and loft areas. Four skylights illuminate the ‘Nordic Modern’ finishes and bring daylight deep into the house and the stairwell with interior openings that frame connections between the spaces. The skylights are also operable with remote controls and blinds to control heat, light and air supply. Unique details abound! Metal details in the railings and door jambs, a paneled door flush in a paneled wall, flared openings. Floating shelves and flush transitions. The main bathroom has a ‘wet room’ with the tub tucked under a skylight enclosed with the shower. This is a Structural Insulated Panel home with closed cell foam insulation in the roof cavity. The on-demand water heater does double duty providing hot water as well as heat to the home via a high velocity duct and HRV system.

Eat-in kitchen - large traditional u-shaped dark wood floor and brown floor eat-in kitchen idea in Los Angeles with a farmhouse sink, shaker cabinets, white cabinets, quartz countertops, white backsplash, porcelain backsplash, stainless steel appliances, an island and black countertops

Location: New York, NY, United States This Loft was tastefully renovated back in the '90s, but was due for an update and an expansion of the kitchen and dining areas to accommodate the client's cooking skills and entertaining needs. EnlargIing the island and adding cabinetry to delineate the office, bar and dining areas was a priority. The bathroom was updated to feel like a tranquil spa with beautiful new tile, plumbing fixtures and cabinets. Our biggest challenge was coordinating the entire renovation while our client was out of town for the Summer! Photographed by: James Salomon

A custom designer tile shower paired with an endless supply of hot water can create the ultimate luxurious bathing experience. Custom tile showers are often designed with a variety of tiles, including ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, or glass tiles. They can be customized to fit the specific needs and preferences of the homeowner, from the size and shape of the shower to the layout and color scheme of the tiles. The addition of an endless supply of hot water means that the homeowner can enjoy a long, relaxing shower without having to worry about running out of hot water. This can be achieved through the installation of a tankless water heater, which provides hot water on demand and can help to reduce energy costs. Together, a custom designer tile shower and an endless supply of hot water can offer the perfect blend of luxury and convenience, creating a spa-like atmosphere in the comfort of your own home. Whether you're looking to unwind after a long day or simply want to indulge in a little self-care, this combination can provide a rejuvenating and refreshing experience that is hard to beat.

This West Kelowna home was already impressive, but was feeling weighed down by the vast amounts of dark wood. The client was dreaming of a lighter look that had a sophisticated coastal charm. This home demanded high level, refined furnishings. With this in mind and the fact that it would retain the existing hood fan, flooring and backsplash we chose a completely new and complimentary colour palette. We also selected a new dining table and chairs, coffee table, area carpets, occasional tables and chairs and artisan textiles. To top it off we ordered a custom Czech Replublic hand blown glass pendant arrangement for the dining area. Before project completion my client had an unforseen move happen. With this change we concluded the project at West Bay and moved our design focus to her new home. Months later I was excited to find out that the custom glass pendant had arrived and had been carefully installed by the electrician. It was a bittersweet moment as I wasn't able to see the job at completion, but now the project was concluded and I was so happy that the new owners could enjoy our design.

This 2019 project for award-winning engineer and former Blackbird Academy instructor Ernesto Olvera-LaPier was one of NILES’ earliest ventures into designing and building a fully formal Dolby Atmos mixing and mastering environment. The result is a highly accurate, purpose-built suite engineered to meet the strict demands of immersive audio work. The room is completely acoustically isolated from the surrounding structure. Sound-reducing wall systems sit atop floating-floor assemblies, paired with a full soft-ceiling bass trap, a false rear-wall trap, and custom full-lite acoustic doors. Dedicated mechanical systems ensure quiet, uninterrupted operation, allowing Ernesto to work with precision at any hour. Monitoring centers around a JBL M2 system seamlessly integrated into the treatment design, providing an immersive, detailed, and articulate listening experience essential for Dolby Atmos production. Every component—from the isolation assemblies to the tuning—was crafted to ensure that the mix translates exactly as intended. The suite is both visually understated and technically advanced, delivering an effortless feel with professional-grade performance throughout.

Kathryn has turned an ordinary two car driveway into great play area for the family by installing the Pro Dunk Silver basketball system. 20 feet deep and 30 feet wide is a common driveway size perfect for some three on three pickup games or practicing your jump shot. I might recommend the Gold system if your have more demanding players as you will see an increase in performance and will be able to take advantage of the wider 60 inch backboard by getting more bank shots from the wings. This is a Pro Dunk Silver Basketball System that was purchased in February of 2013. It was installed on a 20 ft wide by a 30 ft deep playing area in Lee Summit, MO.
