Seemingly quaint as an exterior wall, what one cannot see in this picture is the fireplace. Covered in furniture and unused was a choice made by elderly residents who did not value the look or appeal of the fireplace.

Split Level 1970 home of a young and active family of four. The main public spaces in this home were remodeled to create a fresh, clean look.
The Jack + Mare demo'd the kitchen and dining room down to studs and removed the wall between the kitchen/dining and living room to create an open concept space with a clean and fresh new kitchen and dining with ample storage. Now the family can all be together and enjoy one another's company even if mom or dad is busy in the kitchen prepping the next meal.
The custom white cabinets and the blue accent island (and walls) really give a nice clean and fun feel to the space. The island has a gorgeous local solid slab of wood on top. A local artisan salvaged and milled up the big leaf maple for this project. In fact, the tree was from the University of Portland's campus located right where the client once rode the bus to school when she was a child. So it's an extra special custom piece! (fun fact: there is a bullet lodged in the wood that is visible...we estimate it was shot into the tree 30-35 years ago!)
The 'public' spaces were given a brand new waterproof luxury vinyl wide plank tile. With 2 young daughters, a large golden retriever and elderly cat, the durable floor was a must.

A Neo traditional kitchen, the raised panel cabinets made from Elder wood with a deep mid. tone stain finish.
Notice the design of the raised panel, clean lines and the lack of ornamental features in the cabinets.
The main focal point of the kitchen is the island and its very noticeable leathered finish dark countertop.
An extremely new large window was framed in to provide a huge amount of natural light and allow the kitchen user to enjoy the wonderful view that porter ranch has to offer.

Don’t stare at that closed door too long… you’ll miss the window opening! The staircase and two story entry of the Davenport model at 2701 Box Elder Court, Harrisburg at Autumn Oaks.

Whirlpool tub replaced a cast iron tub from the 1940's. Elderly couple added a custom whirlpool plus matching grab bars for safety and as an aid in getting in/out of bath tub.

These massive flagstone create interest in the front yard garden. With a 5 inch riser and 2 foot runs, these stairs were made easy for the elderly to walk up.

We designed a gate for both the client and the client's neighbor, with a sloped walk. The solid gate helped give the elderly cats a secure space, and the sloped walkway provided them with ease of movement.

This project has a pinwheel pattern using Shluter metal edges. This client is elderly and was concerned about the steps blending in fro mthe pattern causing a potential trip/fall potential. The Shluter tile edge provided a nice viusal break, highlighting the steps.

Nestled among the citrus groves, olive trees, rolling foothills and lush fairways of Rancho Santa Fe is Casa Tramonto -- a Mediterranean-style estate for a multi-generational family. The home is laid out in a traditional U shape, providing maximum light and access to outdoor spaces. A separate courtyard connects to a guest house for an elder parent that now lives with the family, allowing proximity yet plenty of privacy for everyone.
