Home design - contemporary home design idea in Miami

This kitchen family room is a part of a whole house renovation we tackled starting in 2016, slowly and intentionally recreating each space in the house so it could be an updated, lovely space that FELT LIKE HOME to my clients. After rethinking the space, opening it up to the adjacent family room & dining room, creating flow and connection through the whole first floor, and reconfiguring the kitchen layout, it works SO much better for modern family living: Lots to be happy about in here! A new LARGE island perfect for food prep and entertaining, gorgeous new cabinets, lighting, appliances, countertops, tile work… And a beautiful new eating area, allowing for cozy family dinners. We finished the space with bright, colorful accents to give a pop to the neutral colors of the walls and upholstered pieces. The accessories, which have a modern and eclectic feel, blend the traditional items, such as their beautiful rug, with more contemporary pieces like the original art that they love. It is wonderful to see how much the spaces have changed, and know that my clients will enjoy spending time together here as a family, throughout the seasons, for many years to come! :)

Built by Schumacher Homes, America's Largest Custom Home Builder, this stunning Charleston III Modern Farmhouse in Charlottesville, Virginia, effortlessly balances classic architectural details with modern charm. Boasting an expansive 3,751 square feet of meticulously designed living space, this estate-scale floor plan offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and an included 3-car garage. The home is anchored by a chef-ready, open-concept kitchen equipped with abundant counter space, a large central island for casual gathering, and an included "messy kitchen" secondary pantry and prep zone to keep the main area organized. Designed for effortless entertaining, a sophisticated home bar area is situated within the flexible bonus room for pre-dinner drinks, transitioning smoothly into the formal dining room and a cozy hearth room for a relaxed post-meal retreat. The main level beautifully blends cozy comfort with elevated living by featuring two separate custom fireplaces—one serving as a dramatic focal point in the central great room and a second adding intimate warmth to the adjacent hearth room. A smart split-bedroom layout prioritizes privacy, keeping the secondary bedrooms on one side of the residence while establishing the primary owner’s retreat as a secluded sanctuary on the other. Designed for ultimate organization and luxury, the primary suite features a show-stopping, custom two-story walk-in closet with separate levels to provide individual wardrobe spaces for each partner. This premium layout includes one main-level closet adjoining a spa-like owner's bath—fully appointed with a refined glass-enclosed shower and an elegant freestanding soaking tub—and a second, lofted upper retreat accessed by an integrated staircase.

Nestled in the scenic hills of Vista, CA, this kitchen underwent a complete transformation, blending modern elegance with timeless design. The space was brought up to date with sleek, white modern cabinets and a spacious gray island, topped with a luxurious quartz slab. This expansive island serves as the perfect gathering spot, whether for intimate family dinners or entertaining large groups of friends. The kitchen also features a well-appointed beverage center, which discreetly houses a hidden convection oven, pantry, and beautifully designed cabinets to showcase fine china. Designed with both functionality and style in mind, this kitchen meets the needs of a family who loves to entertain in a spacious, inviting environment. Elegant and Functional Laundry Room Transformation As you approach the laundry room, you'll notice the hallway adorned with floor-to-ceiling cabinets, providing ample storage for household items, school supplies, and those miscellaneous essentials that always need a place. This hallway seamlessly leads into the newly renovated laundry room, which features an array of updated cabinets extending into the adjacent office space. The countertops are crafted from luxurious marble from Spain, adding an elegant touch to the laundry room, making everyday tasks like using the utility sink or folding clothes a more enjoyable experience. With a sophisticated color palette of crisp white and rich navy, this laundry room is designed to be both beautiful and welcoming, ensuring it feels like home.

This sprawling hillside-walkout has a captivating presence with staggered gables, a cupola-accented roof, and a stone-and-shake exterior. For those that love to entertain, a formal dining room serves every dinner party need and a spacious breakfast nook provides a place for casual meals. The gourmet kitchen offers an island with prep-sink, allowing ample workspace for multiple cooks in the kitchen. A rear screened porch brings endless hours of enjoyment with a fireplace and a skylight-enhanced cathedral ceiling. The master suite boosts an attached sunroom for private relaxation, as well as a luxury bathroom and walk-in closets for two. A pantry, oversized utility room, and e-space bring a multi-functional work-center to the home. A guest suite is on the first floor, along with a study and two additional bedrooms and a rec room reside on the basement level.

Step into this fusion of functionality and family fun: this remodel hosts a sprawling 14 ft. island at its core, containing an induction cooktop, a commercial hood, and plenty of room for family and friends to gather. Some of the customized concepts are hidden from users’ views, such as the warming drawer in the island, perfect for keeping food or plates warm before dinner, or the beverage bar in the dining room with an under-counter fridge. Overall, this space uniquely harmonizes cooking and gathering.

Sip into Style: Maple Latte Remodel Kitchens are often the centerpiece of our homes, a place where culinary creativity meets family gatherings. Yet, many kitchens fall victim to outdated designs and worn-out finishes. If you’re feeling uninspired by your current space, it’s time to consider a remodel that can elevate your kitchen from drab to fab. Let’s explore how we transformed this client’s kitchen into a posh, stylish retreat that featured a combination of stunning materials and thoughtful design choices that truly elevated the space. Creating an Open Concept One of the most significant changes anyone can make in a home remodel is to modify or remove walls. Even though there were two points of entry into this client’s kitchen, the space was closed off. Opening up the wall instantly created a more open and inviting layout that allowed for the installation of a large island. Eliminating the barrier between the kitchen and the adjacent living area, provides a seamless flow that is perfect for entertaining guests or simply keeping an eye on the kids while cooking dinner. A Showstopping Island At the heart of this kitchen remodel is an expansive 9 ft. island, designed to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The island features a stunning White Pearl natural quartzite countertop that radiates elegance. With its unique veining and shimmering finish, this stone serves as a beautiful focal point and adds a touch of luxury to the space. A beverage cooler and dishwasher are tucked underneath, concealed from the view of the living area. Three 12” deep and 36” wide cabinets line the front of the island providing additional hidden storage. This multifunctional design makes the island an essential part of daily life in the kitchen, making it a cozy spot for casual dining or morning coffee. Complementary Perimeter Countertops To enhance the overall look, the perimeter countertops are topped with Silestone Eternal Charcoal. This material offers a striking contrast to the lighter island, featuring rich, dark hues that ground the space and create depth. The durability and easy maintenance of Silestone make it an ideal choice for busy kitchens, ensuring that the surfaces remain beautiful and functional for years to come. Beautiful Cabinetry The cabinetry in this remodel plays a pivotal role in both style and storage. We opted for Waypoint Cabinetry in a Maple Latte finish, which adds warmth and sophistication to the kitchen. The soft, neutral tones of the cabinetry complement the countertops beautifully and create a cohesive look throughout the space. The cabinets are thoughtfully designed to provide ample storage, with pull-out shelves and organizers that maximize accessibility. Finishing Touches No remodel is complete without the right finishing touches. We chose sleek, modern matte black Top Knobs hardware that enhances the cabinetry's clean lines while adding a touch of contemporary flair. The 2 ½” x 10” San Marcos Tortora stylish backsplash tile, a striking black hood with brushed gold accents and brushed gold large pendant lighting tie together the colors and textures of the room, adding visual interest. The Result: A Dream Kitchen The result of this kitchen remodel is nothing short of spectacular. The combination of the open layout, stunning island, and thoughtful materials creates a space that is both functional and beautiful. Whether you’re considering a full kitchen remodel or simply looking for inspiration, this project highlights the transformative power of thoughtful design and quality materials.

These clients were looking for a designer/builder that would handle everything from concept to completion, providing peace of mind for themselves! “Working alongside Renovisions was a pleasant experience” said our clients as we cared to understand their vision, needs, wants and desires, enabling us to execute their projects successfully and professionally. During the design phase, our well-organized staff listened to the client’s requests and combined several design elements that produced a beautiful, calming and transitional feel to the new kitchen space. During the remodel phase, the clients had these top 5 items on the list of enhancements: * High- functioning ventilation to clear as much odors as possible (When we first met with the clients, they stated, “Something very fishy was going on in their outdated kitchen. Although they enjoyed cooking fish dinners, they fishy odors often annoyed them)! Renovisions designed and installed a wood hood in matching light gray painted finish with a hood liner that provided the maximum ventilation, while staying within the proper building code of a 350cfm air exchange, without having to add a make -up air system which would have added to the cost of the project. *Better functioning ‘Spinner Storage’ for interior storage. The clients loved them in their old kitchen; we furnished and installed new and better-quality spinners storage units. *A unique opening between the kitchen and family room that allowed homeowners to pass meals through as they enjoyed a movie from the family room. *A Smart-Divide porcelain enamel sink with stainless steel grids allow plenty of room for dirty dishes, pots and pans as well as separate areas to prep and wash dishes as needed. * Anti-glare finishes were a must have for these clients; kitchen cabinetry in a matte gray neutral finish, faucet and cabinet hardware in a matte black finish and stunning Cambria quartz countertops in a suede finish set the stage. At completion phase, homeowners were ensured that they were receiving high-quality products, style and craftmanship in the most efficient time frame and were thrilled with look of their new kitchen that also provided plenty of prep, entertaining and seating space. The clients attributes the success of the design to the emotions it inspired when the job was completed – they simply love everything about it!
