This is a pool that screams for the kids and relaxation for the adults. If you are young and want to have fun you can enjoy the water slide or a trip under a bridge on a lazy river or get some energy out with water sports like basket ball and volley ball. If you are into relaxing then this is also your stop. From a swim up bar, tanning shelf or a trip to the spa how could you not relax. With the night life in mind this pool is surrounded by ample seating, a fire pit wall, bbq set up and a wet bar/dinning area pavilion.

Set just outside of this beautiful home is a tranquil waterfall cascading into a tropical Koi Pond. After taking a trip to Japan, the homeowner became truly inspired and wanted to translate his experiences into a realistic representation of the memorable place. By utilizing concrete we were able to add a clean, minimalist yet modern twist to this serene setting. No backyard is too small to create a retreat you will enjoy each and every day.

The client had a ton of very interesting art and memorabilia from trips they had taken and built a home bar to enjoy it with their friends. We recycled cabinets that we faux painted. Stone accents were carried through from the main floor. LVT flooring throughout made a durable material to party on.

Other than the carved elephant brought back from a recent trip to Bangkok our clients took (and was too heavy to move), this is an overall shot of one of our favorite dining rooms! We installed several sconces around the perimeter of the room which match the two crystal chandeliers. They can be used separately or together and when the dimmer, candlelight, and crystals are all aglow, it's very dramatic. This room has held parties for all family and friends' occasions. It provides a wonderful atmosphere for all to enjoy. jordansilvermanphotography

The stunning cocktail table by Naos captivates the space. Its sharp edges enhance the contemporary feel of this space. Behind the cocktail table, this American Leather bench is the perfect spot to enjoy the fireplace.

This fall, Amethyst had the opportunity to partner with Freeman Custom Homes of Kansas City to furnish this 5000 sq ft European Modern designed home for the Artisan Home Tour 2020! Every square inch of this home was magical -- from the secret staircase in the master bath leading to a private shuttered plunge pool to the vaulted kitchen with sky high mushroom colored cabinetry and handmade zellige tile. We met the builders during the cabinetry phase and watching their final, thoughtful design details evolve was such full of over-the-top surprises like the unique valet-like storage in the entry and limestone fireplace! As soon as we saw their vision for the home, we knew our furnishings would be a great match as our design style celebrates handmade rugs, artisan handmade custom seating, old-meets-new art, and let's be honest -- we love to go big! They trusted us to do our thing on the entire main level and we enjoyed every minute. The load in took 3 full trucks and fortunately for us -- the homeowners fell in love with several pieces so our uninstall trip was significantly lighter. I think we were all a little emotional leaving this masterpiece but sooooo happy for the owners and just hoping we get invited to a Christmas party... Here are some of the highlights -- 90% of the furnishings and rugs were from our shop and we filled in the gaps with some extra special pieces!

Kitchen - huge modern kitchen idea in Raleigh

Challenge This 2001 riverfront home was purchased by the owners in 2015 and immediately renovated. Progressive Design Build was hired at that time to remodel the interior, with tentative plans to remodel their outdoor living space as a second phase design/build remodel. True to their word, after completing the interior remodel, this young family turned to Progressive Design Build in 2017 to address known zoning regulations and restrictions in their backyard and build an outdoor living space that was fit for entertaining and everyday use. The homeowners wanted a pool and spa, outdoor living room, kitchen, fireplace and covered patio. They also wanted to stay true to their home’s Old Florida style architecture while also adding a Jamaican influence to the ceiling detail, which held sentimental value to the homeowners who honeymooned in Jamaica. Solution To tackle the known zoning regulations and restrictions in the backyard, the homeowners researched and applied for a variance. With the variance in hand, Progressive Design Build sat down with the homeowners to review several design options. These options included: Option 1) Modifications to the original pool design, changing it to be longer and narrower and comply with an existing drainage easement Option 2) Two different layouts of the outdoor living area Option 3) Two different height elevations and options for the fire pit area Option 4) A proposed breezeway connecting the new area with the existing home After reviewing the options, the homeowners chose the design that placed the pool on the backside of the house and the outdoor living area on the west side of the home (Option 1). It was important to build a patio structure that could sustain a hurricane (a Southwest Florida necessity), and provide substantial sun protection. The new covered area was supported by structural columns and designed as an open-air porch (with no screens) to allow for an unimpeded view of the Caloosahatchee River. The open porch design also made the area feel larger, and the roof extension was built with substantial strength to survive severe weather conditions. The pool and spa were connected to the adjoining patio area, designed to flow seamlessly into the next. The pool deck was designed intentionally in a 3-color blend of concrete brick with freeform edge detail to mimic the natural river setting. Bringing the outdoors inside, the pool and fire pit were slightly elevated to create a small separation of space. Result All of the desirable amenities of a screened porch were built into an open porch, including electrical outlets, a ceiling fan/light kit, TV, audio speakers, and a fireplace. The outdoor living area was finished off with additional storage for cushions, ample lighting, an outdoor dining area, a smoker, a grill, a double-side burner, an under cabinet refrigerator, a major ventilation system, and water supply plumbing that delivers hot and cold water to the sinks. Because the porch is under a roof, we had the option to use classy woods that would give the structure a natural look and feel. We chose a dark cypress ceiling with a gloss finish, replicating the same detail that the homeowners experienced in Jamaica. This created a deep visceral and emotional reaction from the homeowners to their new backyard. The family now spends more time outdoors enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of nature. Their professional lives allow them to take a trip to paradise right in their backyard—stealing moments that reflect on the past, but are also enjoyed in the present.
